^ I can see why the nony is annoyed though. I get annoyed from time to time of people constantly bashing Mako and Korra on this page in order to make what Asami went through in terms of the break up worse than it actually was. Really, I've noticed that issues pop-up on a fandom when the trolls come out from underneath their bridges (which is inevitable) and when either extremes comes out (i.e. extreme hatred for character/ship and extreme loving for character/ship<---usually turns into extreme hatred for opposing character/ship...vicious cycle)

As for people using names for Mako's defense its usually either in response to an assertion (i.e. Mako treated Bolin poorly) or a reference point (which is pretty commonly used in character debates, not just with Mako) and not so much as a pull for sympathy.

But I must agree with your overall sentiment about silly irrational character hate. And really, none of these characters are bad at all, they all have quite a bit of potential, we just need more development, context, and background is all.
