Remember, we're the idiots who fought Michigan for Toledo (speaking of, ring city for Detroit?). You tell me who won in the long run (hint: It wasn't Ohio)

Most of this is coming
from Cincinnati and Cleveland
towardsColumbus(much less from Cincy though). Go look at the Columbus forum on City data-the commentary is flooded by non-Columbus residents(many from Cleveland or even more common, those who have fled Cleveland but still feel attached to it)and it is very anti Columbus. Columbus is the "little brother" that has had the audacity to go through a growth spurt.
Trolls(especially the one who left for the Twin Cities)have ruined the development forum for Central Ohio there.
I think the harsher commentary from Clevelanders is partly because Cbus is seen as "stealing" more residents from NE Ohio. Some NEO people (mostly Cleveland really) are completely delusional IMO-especially the Western Reserve people who would like NEO to "go it alone" and degrade and look down on the rest of Ohio including the Cincy and Cbus areas.
Just wait until the 2020 census results come out-no matter what the Cleveland area people will be howling!!!
*And Akron is NOT a ring city of Cleveland-it is simply another node in a multi-nodal NEO. Just because Cleveland is the largest node does not mean the others are in orbit around it. People from Akron also seem less delusional-maybe because they are used to having to deal with Cleveland.
*commence the Cleveland haters coming in! I actually want to see all 3 of the C's and other Ohio cities do well. When Cleveland is under attack(and Cbus is not involved)I automatically get defensive for Cleveland. I guess it is like a family to me-we can fight with each other but nobody else had better pick a fight with any Ohio city .
I also believe you are the one who at one time notably said that "all Ohio cities hate each-other and have since the beginning of time"??? -no truer statement has ever been spoken lol.
*The tiara ruins Queen City Square. And yes, Ohio lost the Toledo war. But we do have Kings Island and Cedar Point!
