Where did everyone go? I went for a couple of hours and only a hand full of post.

I would have even preferred they had had Emily become ill and wind up in the hospital so we could see how Richard handled his daily life without her running it for him...since he has periodically referred to what she does with her time as frivolous - I would have liked to see Richard/Lorelai dynamic not the same old Emily/Lorelai stuff where Lorelai helps out, Emily is nice for a few minutes then reverts back to old nasty self.

Oh well...it is what it is.
That's coming in S8

After 7 years there is a certain amount that will be re used but why not have some of the town events again, they don't need a hole ep on say the dance marathon or basket auction but have something in a teaser or at the end of an ep would be nice.

I agree, it'd be great to see how Richard would do with an ill Emily and realizing how much he depends on her - because (no matter how nice the office scene was) we already saw in the past how much Emily depends on him. But as an almost blind Emily didn't keep him from doing business stuff, well, I dunno what has to happen to see the other side.

I'd really be happy and fine with this Season to be the last one. Sure, I'll miss my (almost) weekly fix of KB, still - seeing how great she acts with some poor scripts, I can't help to want to see her acting a great script.

Well, sorry, but you are making an argument with your post. And derogatory and belittling? Nah, this is just a response to someone that wants to bag on one of my favourite parts of any show that I have ever watched. If you are going to bag on something. I will reply in kind.

That you only see indifference and you refuse to change your mind...are kind of sad to me. I know this is the net, but your post is systematic of a lack of UNDERSTANDING people seem to have about other people's LIKES and DISLIKES on the net (Again, you may think that following statement seems odd coming from me, but you do not know me. As the country song went. Thus, you do not get how I am more fascinated with all the angles then just the one angle that involves little ol'me. This explains a lot in terms of the debates that we have had because I am not all about me in terms of a story. If I were, I might still see nothing but indifference when it came to Rory and Logan. Remember: I hated Rory and Logan more than any JJ ever. Also, seriously, you are another person who gives Rory all sorts of crap for what happened at the end of season four. Yet, you as an LL, will most likely let Lorelai slide on what she did this year, as you bathe in the light of LL REUNIFICATION. Again, stuff like this, drives me nuts, as a Gilmore Girls fan.). Instead of giving something a chance, people like you -- as well as most people on the net -- cloak yourself inside of this air of closed-mindedness that does nothing more than infuriating someone trying to have a dialogue with you. If you are not going to change how you feel, then why share how you feel? Obviously there is something going on with this couple in terms to the passionate and rather defensive tone VOLTRON's FAN respond with towards post such as yours. Yet, because it's your opinion, that's supposed to make it all right? Especially when it's not an opinion but an argument you are making for why SOMETHING SUCKS.

Again, it's easy to fill in all the blanks around here. Some of us are better at it than others. However, I am more down with understanding an other's point of view, then these rather odd defensive (in lue of you using your opinion as if it were a SHIELD) post that rip something I love apart, then try to take a swipe at me in the process.

Again, there is more going on then one side of this story, but please be SO PROUD of your ability to be closed-minded. You should get that put into a bumper sticker, and place it on your car. So other people around the city in which you live will know that YOU ARE CLOSED-MINDED and PROUD OF IT.
I happened to see this post on an earlier thread, and I didn’t get to reply to it until now because I just got home from work. Why do you think this thread was closed once, and why do you think we had to post a warning to the Gilmore Girls posters that’s topped on this message board? Because of posts like this. Only this time, I’m not going to warn an entire fanbase, I’m going to warn you Jason.

I don’t ever want to see this type of post from you here ever again. What part of Nasty, confrontational, and condescending posts will not be tolerated here don't you understand? I’m sure that poster didn’t enjoy being lectured by you, and I sure didn’t enjoy reading the above diatribe. You seem like an intelligent guy, but I find these kinds of posts from you to be the epitome of an intimidating and bullying post.

I want to make one thing clear to you and to everyone: we’re serious when we say that we want people to treat their fellow posters with the same respect and consideration that they’d want for themselves. Like I said in the post that I addressed to all the Gilmore Girls posters, respectful disagreement is fine, but personal attacks on your fellow posters is not fine, and I consider the above post to be a personal attack.

The purpose of this message board is to discuss spoilers. If you want to lecture a fellow poster here, do it via Private Message, or better yet, don’t do it at all. Thank you.

Okay folks, back to your regularly scheduled spoiler comments!

This matter was dealt with. Why the need to bring it up on the thread again? Jason is a nice scapegoat, but is far from the problem here.

Sorry to say I tend to block out a lot of what some posters say when the bickering starts and just skim their posts.

I brought this up on this thread again because this was brought to my attention by one of the Spoilers board moderators, and the thread that it was posted on was closed. I thought it was an important issue, and as the site Administrator, I feel I have the right to step in when I feel an issue needs to be addressed. I'd also like to know how we don't have the same rules for everyone here? Everyone is expected to treat their fellow posters with respect here, and that applies to every thread on every message board on this website. I want people to discuss spoilers and speculate on the upcoming episodes of the various television shows that have threads here, pure and simple. I don't want people to insult each other or talk down to other posters. The Spoilers board moderators do a great job here, but when they need my support, I can and will support them.

I vote for this thread to be shut down. I believe the LL thread and the RL thread are peaceful when there is no interaction of the so called "Sophies" and "JJs"...

Most LL fans don't know how to leave things alone and ignore posts that are condescending. And Most RL fans defend posters such as Jason who insult LL fans just because most LL fans don't seem to "ship" Rory and Logan.

People seem to forget who Jerry is. It is thanks to him and the other administrators and Mods than we have such a forum to act like immature critics... yet we question their rules because it doesn't support our "ship."

I propose to either shut this thread down or continue with the 'speculating' on the spoilers (or lack there of).

I am really sorry reading this post, I suppose that you could follow your advice and in case that you should give a warn to some person here you could send him a PM.

Sure I can PM you hundreds of examples of people insulting other poster here without getting any warning from your or the other moderators if you like.
