Reputation: +0/-0 Offline Gender: Posts: 756	I think Tingle is a cool sprite.. but it's a bit more disturbing when rendered. I liked him most in Windwaker, actually. He's an interesting character, though I wish they'd give him more of a back story as he appears in so many games. I haven't played his game yet, so maybe they do. Logged

Who said anything about America?

Also, taking way too much offense over a video game character, especially considering you're directing that anger towards me when I only said I 'hated him'. I don't really understand what all this talk about "flames" is, since nobody really said much of anything "insulting" to the fake-not-in-real-life-and-doesn't-have-feelings video game character.

But yeah, I may be a bit off-topic cause I'm mainly worried about how some Zelda fans commenting on some articles over at Zelda dungeon went all overboard and wrote all kinds of !@#$%, including deaththreats, sexually abusive words towards both females and homosexual males and just let loose a whole lot of !@#$% just because 1. guy didn't like like the Zeldaseries, 1. woman had to divorce her husband cause he never did !@#$% (brought in no money, didn't help her with anything at home) except play Zelda 24/7, and 1. schoolgirl wrote a slightly misinformed, yet positive article about the Zeldaseries. And lot's of people went "I'll kill you you !@#$% !@#$%/unappreciative !@#$%/stupid !@#$%" OK, this is the Tingle thread, but since he is one of those characters people get angry about.. I'm just saying.. I don't know about you guys (you haven't said any !@#$% like that as far as I know), but what's up with all the hating? I love Zelda but nothing that's supposed to be a past-time pleasure should make people that mad.... . . . Back to topic though, I think the tingle humor is weird. It's a lot of hints at japanese culture that most of us don't get. Some jokes slip through but many of the quirks in Tingles world are totally beyond my comprehension. Logged

Back to topic though, I think the tingle humor is weird. It's a lot of hints at japanese culture
that most of us don't get. Some jokes slip through but many of the quirks in Tingles world are totally beyond my comprehension.

Um...who cares what goes on at another forum? Why even bring it up or assume we are all douche bags like that?

People can be pissed off at a game because they bought the damn thing.
"Don't get mad, it's just a game."
!@#$% that. I(or anyone) paid money for game, and when there are annoying green tight wearing, rupee whoreing, fairy men in my game, I'ma be pissed >:{
/sarcasm

Really, if you pay money for a game, you are a customer. Customers have the right still to voice their satisfaction/dissatisfaction with the product.

Then again, I wonder if anyone returned the games when Tingle says:
Tingle, Tingle! Kooloo-Limpah!

then see this picture >.>
