...Why does all fandom seem to hate the one character I admire with a burning passion?

I just, I don't even.

I understand not agreeing with a character fine, but...so far, I haven't really found that many reasons for Webster to be practically ignored the way he does. I just...god, it's ALMOST AS BAD AS GUNDAM WING FANDOM AND RELENA BASHING ( Read more... )

webster, public, ignore this, brb dying, o fandoms, public for commentary, wtf, russian, band of brothers

Oh yeah, fandom. I'm kinda glad though I got into BoB too late to associate with the fanbase D;

Part of me is glad for being late to it too, because I've just had too much time spent with Hetalia fanbase to scare me off of anything historical ever, but at the same time...just wish I could talk to people you know?

Oh, oh are you going to watch The Pacific btw?

Wait, people really dislike Webster that much?
I must not be that involved in the fandom...

It's not a dislike more so as "Lol the only time we mention Webster is to make fun of him" which...kinda made me sad because the guy's such an interesting character when you think about it. That and the only time you can see anything of Webster...usually has to have Liebgott there somehow...

I just feel for the guy, because really...he's not as derp/disloyal/emo as he's portrayed.

I agree with you completely.

Sometimes I think people get too carried away with characterizing the guys and get tunnel-vision with the mini series. That is, they forget these are real people and that they're interacting with these guys' actual stories-- and the re-telling of the stories, of course. Respect should always always be maintained with it/toward them.

But yes, all in all, Webster does deserve way more credit than people give him.

Mmm, well I admit, I can/do sometimes take Eion Bailey's portrayal for granted and it's all in good fun, but even then, I feel...I don't know, a bit weird about it. Even when reading AUs I have to just, keep reminding myself it's not the guy I just read about a few minutes ago--so yeah, I can see how tunnel-vision could occur pretty much, but you have a very excellent point ( ... )
