Here’s my thoughts as someone who made the Wall of Shame three times:
It’s a hilarious idea, it has potential, but it needs to be tweaked. I’m not sure how my comment about Mangiapane needing to show up made in the 2nd period of the 5th game of a playoff series in which he had 0 points at the time I posted the comment made the list. I don’t think there was anything shameful about that. It was a fair criticism of his play to date. Same with my comment about Tkachuk playing like garbage. He had a bad game and in the end contributed nothing offensively so I’m not sure that comment aged poorly.
My comment along the lines of “1 goal in 8 periods, disappointment again”? Sure. Throw that on there. That’s funny. And I don’t mind others having a laugh at the expense of my dramatic comments. I even laughed when I saw the post knowing there was a good chance that would make it in.
Lighten up. Take a joke. It’s not personal and it’s all in good fun. Just make sure the posts you put in there are actually worthy of “shame” and I see no issue with it. I don’t feel bullied because I had some posts go in there. The GT has always been emotional and reactionary. If you can’t laugh at yourself after a win then don’t post in the GT with your emotions running high.
