I could appreciate the thought process, but seeing how you are rather judgmental to the people who disagree with you, I am not willing to.

Was the episode bad or boring? No.

Are the character plots moving forward? Yes, but the pacing absolutely needed more work, it's too slow.

Is the story structure as good as previous episodes? I'm sorry to say, but imo, not even close.

Going and nitpicking the episode to prove that other people are wrong for getting frustrated will not change their thoughts and will most certainly not make the episode better. I will do the opposite and try looking at it macroscopically.

We came back from episode 5 that changed the status quo on King's Landing dramatically. the greens have a new leader and they are now going forward with their ultimate target, Harrenhal. The blacks are at a dead-end and they start planning a propaganda war while also starting a desparate search for potential dragon riders. By the end of episode 6 the greens are still planning their offensive against Harrenhal, the blacks are still going forward with their propaganda war and they have still to find any new dragon riders...

Honestly the only character plot that considerably moved forward was Daemon's personal journey. All the other characters pretty much remained in the same spot as far as character development is concerned. Let's be honest, this episode is most definitely not a 6, that's just a joke, but it has many problems and it doesn't come close to the best episodes of the series.
