So there I was complaining about GW yesterday and today I'm posting there three or four times. I realized instead of complaining I need to be a positive influence on things. Instead of complaining at the people on GW I need to simply post what I want to talk about. Give my view on things the way I'd like to see from others. Sometimes it's just not

It general I don't think it has been bad lately. Yesterday there was just an explosion of bad through the whole of GW. Some people who swore they weren't going to watch s4 of SGA downloaded and watched the leaked first two episodes and the vitriole came spewing out for the day. Things seem to be contained today and it's no longer on the SW thread today.

There was a conversation about wanting to see things end happily ever after with John and Elizabeth verses being content with imagining it and making it happy ever after in fic.

I said I was content to see the happily ever after in fic no matter what happens.

I've never personnally heard of this kind of leak happening when the episode hasn't aired on a TV anywhere. I really have no idea how the leak happened. As long as you don't post a link to where you can download it, talking about it using spoiler tags is allowed on GW.

SW fanfic doesn't seem quite as prolific lately. There's a drabble comm. I go to and there is often something there. I've started writing my own drabbles. :D

I too have seen some fandoms go down or not be as prolific when the show is over. Or a character kinda disappears from fanfic when they're no longer on the show. Which annoys me, now that the character's no longer on the show that's when I want the fanfic to be around for me to read with that character in it.
