Thank you :) Hello penguin pals. I feel that there's something that I really need to talk about, again. Something that I've talked about many times in the past, but there's still people that don't understand, or just disagree. If you haven't guessed already, I'm going to talk about the whole problem with pookie protests on this wiki, or anywhere else. In the past, I've given many reasons, and talked with many about it. But some people still don't understand the whole issue with it, and just continue to do everything I'm against (even if they say that they agree with my arguments). So, in this post, I'm going to go over everything that I've talked about in the past about the issue, and (hopefully) end this whole problem once and for all. Now, if there's anything that you feel is wrong with what I say, please reply, so that there's absolutely no confusions. But if you do reply, I ask of you a couple of things: 1) Read the entire post (including all of the other replies) so that anything you have to say, isn't a repeat. 2) Avoid any hostility, bullying, or flaming at other users on either side of the argument. Now, without further a due, here's all of my reasons of the past, on why pookie protesting should stop. First of all, the protests are just cyberbullying. Whenever you start a wiki about pookie hate, whenever you make a userbox saying how "cool" you are because you hate pookies, or whenever you start up something crazy like "Operation: Pookie", you break the hearts of many unsuspecting people, some even younger than you think. And don't even try to say that that'll never happen, because most of them just ignore it; It has happened, and will happen more in the future. PookieForever, one of the Pookie Wiki's users, once told me that her sister saw one of you guys' protest wikis, and she burst into tears! So great job, you just demolished the fragile feelings of a poor girl, that had no idea until then, that so many people hated her so much, that they made an entire wiki just to state that. Now, when I have stated this before, many people have told me that there are lots of pookies that also cyberbully, which are called divas, and that's one of the reasons that they protest them. Well now, let's just think for a sec: divas were never meant to be completely part of pookie culture. Pookies were just supposed to be babies that want to get adopted. Then, somebody came up with a stupid idea of acting like a bratty baby, that wants a rich mumu. That's when people called pookies brats in general. But that's just an amount of pookies, while most of them are nice, and think that divas are jerks. When you generalize, saying that all pookies are bad, that's not right. If you don't get it, here's an example of how generalizing on personality is wrong: There are lots of Muslims. Some of them are terrorists. Does that small percentage make all Muslims evil? Of course not! So if you protest pookies because you've had some experience with bad ones, protesting against all pookies is not correct, and it'll just crush the feelings of the nice ones. An "Operation: Diva" or something like that makes more sense, and is much more reasonable. But even then, if divas are just as you say they are, why would you follow in their footsteps, and cyberbully them back? As far as opinions go, you have full right to them. If you hate pookies for any reason, I don't want to change your perspectives in life. The thing that isn't right, is saying that right to another person's face, in the rudest of ways. Don't go up to somebody with an opinion you're against, and say "you're an idiot for liking this" or something like that, because we have our own rights to our own opinions, as well. If you don't like pookies, don't do all of this stuff, just to be mean, because only each individual only has rights to one opinion, and that's theirs. If you're going to just say that you don't like pookies, that's okay, you have the rihgts to state an opinion. But when you do, can you please be polite about it? And now for the puffle problem, and how people hate pookies for turning puffle property into an adoption center. Personally, I actually do agree that this is a problem, because the Pet Shop is meant for puffles, and they also have their own rights. I totally agree with Origanalcool and JWPengie's idea of moving the pookies to the lodge, or CP making an adoption center just for pookies. But until any of that comes to action, you guys have the gift of the ignore button, and multiple servers. Now, I'm sorry to hear that some of you guys are experiencing a bug when it comes to the ignore button, but for those who aren't, please use it and you have no more worries about pookies. As for those who are, you still have the option of going to a server four bars or less. Yes, sometimes pookies go to lower bar servers, but that's very rare, and only happens if there are no higher servers. You'll just have to go lower whenever that happens. But if you do like crowded servers, I'm sorry, but you'll just have to accept other people enjoying CP their way, while you enjoy CP your way. So, that's pretty much all of my reasoning. If you feel that I've been incorrect in anything that I say, or have something to add, please reply so that there's no confusion. However, when you do reply, please do the two steps that I've said before, and please be sure to read my reply to your reply, because I will read them all, and reply to them all. But if you do agree with everything, please stop the protesting. Some people hear my word out, say that they agree, and then just keep protesting. Please don't just do that, if you fully agree, and make a change in the world :) *Sign below if you're in support of this issue :D* Waddle on! To me it is about 75%-50% where pookies are divas and also when you said mumu you should have said mother because you are on the wiki you don't have to talk like a pookie

La la.
