If we're talking about stuff here like the Hal Jordan thread, nobody except one person was getting heated about Redjack's past tweets about Hal or at the people "who don't have everything."
Expressing reasonable concerns about a writer who is coming on board tweeting that one of your favorite characters sucks knowing that sometimes creeps into the work itself isn't fanning the flames of fandom war. It's not like any of us were saying the other characters can't have anything either, we're just naturally going to be concerned with our favorites overt expending energy being concerned about everyone else (as every single fan on here is).
