Also, you did kinda leap down the Newbie's throat a bit... I know, I do it myself all the time. Just sayin...

I'm not a robot, but I honestly try my best at being one.
Current events don't display Richie in the best of lights. But I decided to discern appearances from facts. I'm trying to keep those two things separate. People saw this as a pissing match between Jon and Richie before we even knew that was likely the case. That's why I had a hard time seeing "pro-Jon" and "pro-Richie" stuff even when they were meant as a joke. It's because I know, sadly, some people are seriously like that. They're not Bon Jovi fans, they're either Jon fans or Richie fans or simply fans of hatred.
We all have favorites, and I won't make it a secret that my personal one is Jon. But I've been taking a stand for both of these guys. I think they belong together and that's it. I don't have to prove anything and I don't think they have to prove anything either.
I happen to believe things are not black or white, and that even in a fight you won't necessarily have one who's wrong and one who's right.
I felt the blood boil in my veins when I saw people going: "Richie who?" on the Internet. And I called them out on it. As I did with people who trashed Jon. That's the difference. I don't feel the need to trash one to defend the other, simply because I don't see them as enemies and because I love them both. Simple as that.
As for the newbie, well... I'm not much less of a newbie. And I didn't mean to come across like the one bullying the newbie, that's not it. But back then I sensed some sort of aggressivity in that one post and, well, that reflected in my reply.
I'm sorry I ended up writing a novel. It happens a lot with me.
