Within the context of you asking how many of us are adults: that weighs heavily on being disrespectful to other forum members, with the implication that they are children.

Given that we are (the ones I am familiar with) in the main, adults. That allows us to make an educated judgement, based on what we see, hear, read and watched in respect of Mario. You may not like it, you may not like our words. That I'm afraid is life. That is not 'cyber bullying'. In the adult world that 'we' (as it is the non Mario fans you are addressing) live in, that is called having a difference of opinion. By all means, opposing thoughts and views are great to hear - but with little other than you yourself coming online to 'reprimand us' for speaking our minds, I would have to throw your question back at you.

Most adults are able to express themselves without having to resort to, "Get over the Ben thing". which in itself, could be construed as your own attempt at bullying other into not posting.

Finally. you state that 'you are all stalking Mario on twitter. Given that that is quite an allegation: I will steer you in the right direction - I am neither stalking Mario nor indeed am I a member of twitter.

I know for absolute fact that many other non Mario Fans on this thread are not a members of twitter and neither do they stalk anyone, Mario included.

Mario chooses to publicize his every moment on Twitter. He also uses it to castigate others when it suits it. Therefore to maintain a level playing field: Mario is an adult and will be aware that this will encourage negative comments on his twitter. It's HIS twitter account for him to use as he wishes, and he can monitor and manage his account accordingly.

However, given that twitter, like this,is a public arena, and a public medium upon which to express views: both constructive and non constructive views will be posted as relative. That is as they say, the nature of the beast.

Now. Perhaps you should think about how your posts here are being taken, why don't you come back with a different mindset and discuss all the many reasons you support Mario, rather than attempt to belittle others for having an opinion that doesn't match your own.

It would be a shame if you continued with personal insults to others on here, rather than speak about Mario, as all that will happen is that people won't be interested in some very valid points you may have.
Well said Pym.
