Your insistence on using terms like "nerd rage" and "hate" is becoming tiresome, and is frankly quite misplaced and irrelevant here. We are discussing a series of books. Those of us who are displeased with Sanderson's handling of the split and the way he amateurishly restructured RJ's outline are saying so. For instance, DomA, an extremely literate person and the most useful and enjoyable poster here, has delivered succinct and convincing arguments to this effect that coincide completely with my own view of the situation.

You, on the other hand, are trying to disqualify the views of those who disagree with you by citing ridiculous American internet lingo like "nerd rage" and "haters gonna hate". Those labels do not apply here at all, because we are having a literary discussion. What you are doing is calling anyone who disagrees with you trolls. I can - in theory, at least - understand that you have the capacity of enjoying anything as long as Sanderson and - the highly overrated - Team Jordan vouch for it, but you should at least understand the those of us who have read more than David Eddings will find their efforts lacking in a lot of important areas.
