Alright, well… Lol. It seems that perhaps my intentions were misinterpreted, Redemption. I laugh simply because of the sheer amount of trolls on the internet in this day and age. I definitely don’t consider myself to be one. However, I do have a very sarcastic personality. Most people hate me for it, but hey, I’m not on this planet to make friends, so…

If I had ever or will ever make a mistake on this board pertaining to Mortal Kombat, I would like to be corrected. I would never post anything as fact unless I knew for sure that it was a fact. Anything else would only be speculation or I’d mention along with my post that I wasn’t positive about its contents.

Also, I wasn’t saying that you aren’t a true MK fan. It was sarcasm. I just personally hate the term, because I don’t care whether a person has been following MK since the beginning or has just recently got into it. I believe that if anyone even takes the time to post anything on a board of a wiki, then they must have, at the very least, some sort of interest in the subject. I’d venture to guess that I know quite a bit more about MK and the lore of it, but that’s mostly due to me being a fan for much longer than you. Does that make me a “true fan” and you not? No.

I have played and own every game up to this point (aside from Advance, Tournament Edition, Unchained and Ultimate, only because I’ve never owned any portable gaming device). I’ve played II, 3, UMK3, and 4 on arcade systems, but I never had the chance to play the original on an arcade (sad day). I own both feature films: Mortal Kombat and Annihilation. I own The Journey Begins, which has just simply awful animation, and Defenders of the Realm, which has much better animation. I own Konquest, which was unjustifiably cancelled after a single season. I have Legacy and Rebirth downloaded onto my laptop. I own every MK comic up to this point aside from MK vs DC, because I refuse to buy that abomination. I own the entire set of the original Mortal Kombat GI Joe action figures including Johnny Cage, Johnny Cage vs Goro 2-Pack, Smoke, Sonya Blade, Rayden, Liu Kang, Shang Tsung, Shang Tsung Dragon Wing Driver, Scorpion, Sub-Zero, Kano (who came with the Kombat Cycle), and Reptile (who came with the Dragon MK-1). I even own 1,000+ cards from the Mortal Kombat Kard Game that most people don’t even know exist.

What I’m getting at here, Redemption, is that I don’t believe in “true fans” of anything. You love Mortal Kombat, correct? Then you’re a true fan. I’d consider myself a hardcore fan of the franchise, though. I’m also a huge collector of things I’m very interested in. Have you ever watched Comic Book Men? That’s my shit. Those are my kinda people. Lol. Anyway… Yes, I’m a sarcastic prick and sometimes frequently arrogant concerning my knowledge of particular subjects, but I want you to know that I don’t look down upon you for any knowledge that I may have that you don’t possess about the MK Universe. If anything, I want to educate people who are interested in MK more about the lore of it all.

You seem like a nice person and an understanding one, so I’m sure you can forgive the outburst in my previous post. I’m glad you are such a fan of MK. After all, I typed this entire post for you, buddy. And hey, if you ever wanna know or discuss anything… Just ask. :)
