Oh shut your trap, new guy. I was talking about his opinion being flawed, and not making sense.

So his opinion that Manda is a Dragon like monster doesn't make sense?
Toho never says one way or another.

His idea that Manda is a deformed version of Ghidorah is flawed?
Toho never said boo one way or another about this either. (And I'm pretty sure Patrick Alan was being sarcastic on this one anyway. But even if not my point still stands.)

He can't prove himself right nor can you prove him wrong. A lot of crazier shit has gone down in Toho's franchise (see my last post in this thread for more details).

Thank you Bearijuana

And yeah the Manda being a deformed King Ghidorah was me being sarcastic, I was just saying let's stop arguing about what Manda is. I think he's a dragon, some people think he's a serpant, there's no way to prove who's right and wrong, so it's pointless to argue, and besides, that's not what the topic is about.

No problem. ;)

Yeah, lol I thought you were being sarcastic, and I agree, people should really stop the useless bickering, because this:

Already answered the question of the thread, and the rest was useless and full of opinions.

exactly, I agree

But I still don't see what Goji keeps saying about this thread not making sense or was flawed.
I think this thread is perfectly clear, do you see anything that doesn't make sense?

Nah, I see a legitimate topic question, asking why Manda's horns are omitted in DAM, I don't see anything wrong with that. I see a lot of much dumber posts and topics floating around on this forum. I also see posts with extreme vulgarity, extreme and overt explicit language, and spam (including people just trying to increase their post counts), posts of people talking down to, and insulting others. All of which is against the rules.

But most of these people are veterans and thus are not punished. Forums are usually cruel to new members like you and me, I wouldn't take it personal. It's sad people act this way. You and I just have to try our best to not get banned until we are veterans.

Guys, get back on topic. I don't want to hear anyone being rude and I also don't want to hear anyone whining. If you can't get back on topic and this thread has served it's purpose and there's nothing left to talk about, I'll gladly lock it.

Heh, I always believed that it was either this or that the puppet was damaged.

It's pretty impressive that they have been able to wrap it around the bridge at all with all these wires neccesary to move Manda. With the horns and whiskers it would've been even harder if not impossible.

This is all I was referring to. How the hell is anyone supposed to tell he was being sarcastic?

I never said the topic didn't make sense, I said you're theory about it being "a deformed King Ghidorah" didn't. Obviously, you can read, so how did you miss that?

Tyler answered your original question, and this topic has already served it's purpose. It might as well be locked.
