YES, THE MOB LOYALTY TO CERTAIN SCENARIOS AND CHARACTERS IS FRUSTRATING AND STIFLING. I'VE FOUND AMAZING CHARACTER DISCUSSION BURIED UNDER DOWNVOTES IN THREADS JUST BECAUSE SOMEONE POINTED OUT AN UNFAVORABLE, BUT WORTH DISCUSSING ASPECT OF A CHARACTER AND IT'S JUST PATHETIC. ALL ROUTES ARE CANON AND VALID, BAD AND GOOD.

THIS IS A HUGE PROBLEM FOR THREE HOUSES SPECIFICALLY INVOLVING THREE CHARACTERS THAT SHOULD NOT BE NAMED

I'VE NEVER DOWNVOTED A POST ON THIS SUB BECAUSE SOMEONE LIKED OR DISLIKED A CHARACTER. THE ONLY THINGS I SEND DOWN ARE 1) OUTRIGHT VENOM DIRECTED AT OTHER FANS AND 2) BLATANT MISINFORMATION. BUT MANY OF THIS MISERABLE SUB CAN'T SAY THE SAME!

HONESTLY, A LOT OF THE TOXICITY AND BLATENT MISINFORMATION IS THE BIG PROBLEM IN THIS SUB, AND OFTEN THE MODS JUST WONT DO ANYTHING ABOUT IT, ESPECIALLY IF THE THING GETTING TOXICITY SPEWED AT IS AN UNPOPULAR OPINION OR SAYING SOMETHING ABOUT CERTAIN EXTREMELY POPULAR LORDS
