I don't dislike them. It's just that under certain circumstances, some of them are... I'm not quite sure how to explain it.

For now let's get the most obvious one out of the way. I'm sure you probably saw this one coming, considering how frequently Boom and his team argue with him, and how frequently I have my villains do something to get rid of him before the fight begins. Red Ruby. I don't actually dislike him. In fact, I remember that before so many characters showed up in HoEC, he used to be in my list of my top favorite characters. The problem with him is that nowadays, his behavior comes off as annoying most of the time, specially when interacting with villains that are more powerful than him. And since after all this time he's never learned to control his tongue, the only sure way to get him to stop is to have some villain capture him or just do something to get him out of the way before the fight begins. I mean, I understand that Boom can act similarly to Red Ruby on many occasions, but when there's a villains that's supposed to be taken seriously, I don't have Boom insulting him/her and overall just not using common sense to know that talking like that to powerful villains might not be the smartest idea.

But he's the only frequent offender. Besides him, most characters give no trouble at all. At most, some may have one or two moments that I may dislike, such as when Test Subject Blue was rude to Blast, or when Starcade was framing Metalshoe as the one who started the fight when in reality she was the one to start, while everyone else was trying to calm down Metalshoe peacefully. I don't dislike either of these characters, they just had their poor moments. I'm sure you've felt similarly about some of my characters at some moments as well.
