Has anyone else had it with people calling each other "marks" and "smarks"?
I don't care for marks, or smarks. I don't care for groups or troll patrols.
I don't see why Punk French Girl would consider leaving for the reason she is. It makes no sense.
I can sense she is directing myself amongst other saying we are WWE/PG marks. The funny thing is I dislike WWE and PG. The other funny thing is all of the wrestlers on her "like" list are from the WWE and are the cause of PG John Cena is the main example.
Don't people understand that if we want to be a good wrestling section we have to work as one not in groups.
No Punk French Girl. Why would I thumb down you. Did you do anything wrong... No. I don't care about Cena.
The main focus of the question was the last sentence.
Wow Punk French Girl. Can't blame me. I gave you a thumbs up.

I don't care for the rampant misuse of those words (and other wrestling terms) by those who have no idea what the real meanings are. It seems the vast majority of users here live and die by what spoiler/rumor writers post on the internet rather than watch the shows. This section has turned into little more than users bickering over the latest rumor, forming and joining "groups", and asking the same WWE trivia questions over and over.
Those who ask actual wrestling questions get few answers. And those who ask about something going on in any promotion other than the WWE get bashed for it by WWE "marks" (a "mark" is a fan, it is not an insult. I've written that 4,000 times and still this section misuses that word to bash each other continuously). Everybody in this section is a "mark", it is not an insult, it is the wrestling business' term for it's fans. Everybody get over it.
To be a "good wrestling section" we have to be free to ask and answer questions about ANY form of wrestling, pro and amateur, without being bashed by close-minded WWE fans who find it "cool" to bash everything and everybody not the WWE. This is NOT the WWE section, yet we have an elementary school playground full of close-minded WWE fans running around forming groups and bashing everybody not in their group, and bashing everybody who doesn't think as they do. Their "chatting" about the latest WWE TV show and all the rumors and gossip about the WWE crowds and shuts out legitimate questions about other promotions.
I get sick of it, and I'm not the only one. "Good users" get their accounts suspended for disagreeing with the close-minded WWE fans here who band together to mass-report them for having their own opinions. Some of us just sift through the crap, trying to find a decent question or two to answer, trying to stay out of the garbage that goes on here. And some of us just leave in disgust.
You can't "fix" it. I can't "fix" it. Nobody can "fix" it as long as this section is filled with immature users hiding behind fake names and keyboards, being as anonymous as they want, facing no repercussions for their actions, banding together in "groups" to have "feuds" with other "groups" and single users, and mass-reporting users for having opinions of their own that don't agree with them.
This isn't a "wrestling section". It's an unsupervised and un-moderated chat room full of immaturity and children bickering with each other.
Why else do you think other sections "invade" this section with impunity, and trolls run rampant making fun of this section and the users in it?
For the thousandth time, John Cena does NOT make business decisions for the WWE. Vince and Linda McMahon own the company. THEY make the decisions. Cena is just an employee and he follows orders just like Vince's secretary and the guys who set up the ring. Vince and Linda McMahon own the company; THEY make the decisions and give the orders. Any "blame" for ANYTHING that goes on in the WWE rests on Vince and Linda McMahon, nobody else.

Never really got those terms, and could care less about them!
Groups do suck, why do people feel this need to be a part of a group anyways, anyways, this wrestling section is a great wrestling section, and I for one, would much rather stand out for who I am, than have people know me because I am in some silly, stupid, group!

I agree. But some people want to unify, and some people just want to be a thorn in people's sides.
Some WS Users are very cooperative, but then there's the select few, who only think their opinion is right, and that everything they touch is gold.
I'll tell ya what I know, when it comes to a question. I wont bash you for being a mark or a smark, cause we both enjoy the same thing, right?

Well, that's mostly what the members of the groups call themselves, and trust me, there are people I've met that fall firmly into one of those categories. I don't consider every wrestling fan one or the other, but there are people who are definitey "marks", and people who are definitely "smarks".

I tell you what........I have no idea in this big @ss planet but lets get over this crap. We were fighting hardcore earlier, I got offline to go have some fun, and as soon as I get back on: the drama continues. Let's put a fork in all the nonsense and go about what we really came here to do.
And that's answer wrestling questions to the best of our ability.

i truthfully hate it. it is so well-known. Do human beings do this so they do no longer screw up and contact somebody by potential of the previous woman/boyfriend's call? I you would be wanting a nickname a minimum of make it unique. My ex's became Peanut and he called me Cutie....and we in no way did that throughout front of human beings....we truthfully used our authentic names

A mark is a wrestling fan, which people like to use as an insult. I think it's dumb to call someone a mark when they're a mark themselves.

so you're here to bash me and bash my favorite wrestlers? I know people don't like John Cena but that doesn't stop me from saying that he is one of my favorites. Just so you know..some of the best users here like John Cena but they dont wanna be bashed so they never share that
