If it be possible, as much as lieth in you, live peaceably with all men. (Romans 12:18~ New Testament of the Bible)
"4) Twi-haters, this isn’t a hater atau anti spot. Don’t abuse it. Do not make personal attacks against Stephenie Meyer atau her fans, and don’t throw nasty atau immature insults at Twilight. This is supposed to be “Critical Analysis of Twilight”, not “Mindless Bashing of Twilight”."
~Dearheart link
"And Twi-haters – it’s okay to poke Twilight and be deliciously witty and sarcastic...but don’t get nasty. There is a fine line between criticism and cruelty. Don’t say dumb things like “OMG edwards so gay becuz he sparklz,” “twilight sucks [bleep],” etc. Just don’t. If anda have something negative to say about Twilight, please put it in a way that isn’t crude, unintelligent atau mean-spirited. If anda don’t want things to get ugly, don’t make them ugly. Comprende?"

Lately, I think some of the Twihaters from the CAT spot have gone a little too harsh with the hateful komen-komen about Twilight and some of its fans. I've been told from the beginning that the CAT spot is not a hater spot and I know it was intended to be a spot for people to discuss and give opinions about Twilight.
I think it's rather rude to leave nasty komen-komen at Twipro contents. I don't think it's wrong for a Twifan to post something related to Twilight, whether they are images, videos, links, etc. After all, this spot is for Twifans, Twihaters and Twineutrals alike! And there's no need to give a low rating for a Twipro content. I understand if one gives a Twipro content a low rating because it is miscategorized/inappropriate atau its lack of keywords. But giving a Twipro content a low rating because anda personally dislike/hate Twilight is rather mean. Leaving a hateful komen towards the Twifan who telah diposkan the Twipro contents here is even worse.
Some of the contents at the CAT spot also have been a little too harsh lately. I find most of it really amusing but some of it are a little too harsh, especially some of those from the TwilightSucks website. Please menanggung, bear in mind that not all the members here are Twihaters.
I think that there's no need to hate someone just because he/she likes Twilight. 'To each, his/her own.' Please do not assume that Twifans are mindless, uneducated people, who just go about screaming "EDWARD CuLLen IssSSS Aaa HOOOTTTtttty!11!!!" atau that we have no life. There are Twifans out there to who have mixed feelings about Twilight too. We know that Twilight has its flaws but each of us have a personal reason for liking Twilight. So, please do not assume that we like Twilight just because Twilight is the 'in' thing atau because Jacob/Edward is hot. Plus, don't forget that we, Twifans have feelings too.
However, it's not wrong for anyone to tunjuk their dislike for Twilight. Everyone is entitled to their own opinions. Respect is to be earned and I'm sure most will find it hard too respect one who uses foul/curse words to describe their hate for their dislikes. I've already seen a few cases[thankfully, very, very few cases] where someone cusses about Twilight, which I think is totally unnecessary. If anda want to blurt out/express your negative feelings on Twilight, there's no need for the usage of foul language. Just give a polite and truthful komen atau just use sarcasm. I fact, I think sarcasm is better than cussing.
"1) Bring a good sense of humor. Don’t ever take things personally, and try not to be too sensitive. Otherwise you’ll be miserable. Just
let loose, have fun, and be willing to laugh.
2) If someone offends you, don’t blow up. Respond in a polite, mature way, point out what offended anda and why anda find it offensive. If it’s something serious atau happens to be one of the things forbidden in Rule 5, chances are people will back anda up and the problem will work out. If it isn’t, reread Rule 1. "

So, this is my Nasihat to Twifans who are also members of the CAT spot, who are unhappy with some of the CAT contents. If anda come across any really nasty komen-komen atau contents about Twilight atau about you, just ignore atau laugh them off. Like what Dearheart mentioned, don't take things too personally. Don't let them bother you. If anda want to give a comment/reply, give a respectful atau a witty one, as long as it's mature.

NOTE: (UPDATED!) I am a Twifan, as well as a CAT fan. I'm not trying to be a goody two-shoes, I'm just giving my opinion about the feelings that some Twifans of the CAT spot have about some of the insults being thrown at us. If I have offended anyone, I do apologize as I did not intend to offend anyone.
