Fandom wars?

[nightshade24]

You know...I usually find myself wishing sometimes that I could immerse myself in my many fandoms more. Talk to people more and such. You know? But whenever something erupts where people are constantly bitching like rabid dogs and arguing about stupid shit...I realize that I'm glad that I kind of do the whole "lurking" thing. I mean, I talk

I think if you got involved in fandom drama in this fandom, and told certain people off, they'd walk away limping :) It's the best arguers who are too mature to not get involved in this stuff, so whenever there's a big problem, both sides end up looking like assholes, haha.

LOL. True. :D

HEAR HEAR!

I know what you mean, I'm such a lurker so when all of a sudden there are these kids emoing all over the place about something I'm like WTF??? I don't ever get involved, just try and enjoy the fandom for what it is and if it gets too stupid then I move on.

It's weird, because you'd think that fandom would bring people together through a common interest, not drive them apart over stupid bullshit that is irrelevant to the fandom itself.

THANK YOU. You said it perfectly. Why is it that that happens? Is it because a majority of us are girls and girls can be catty? Can we not co-exist peacefully? It's bizarre.

Believe me it's healthier to stay away
