Kay... Imma say my piece.
I HATE. Hate. hate. hatehatehatehatehatehate it when anyone. ANYONE says:
"omgoshWTFrog??SOMEONE STOP ALL THESE SHIPPERS THEY ARE RUINING MY SHOW! D:<"
... seriously, SHUT.UP.
If you don't like the way OTHER PEOPLE "Fan" then fine. Go and be the "right" type of fan ALL YOU WANT.
BUT DON'T. freaking. SPAZZ in my face and LECTURE ME about NOT doing whatever the heck is "canon" and liking the show in the WRONG WAY. You want me to STOP DOING WHAT IS FUN and only do things like.. I dunno. THINK THE WAY YOU FREAKING TELL ME TO??
one word. ONE word for what you are acting like.
NAZI.
you are trying to POLICE the minds of countless people trying to enjoy the show however they like... RUINING THE PeRfECTION~ THE UTOPIAN WORLD of LOVE fOR THE SHOW AND ONLY what it speCIFically IMPliES~
well you know what you can do? You can just GO TO HELL. LEAVE ME ALONE TO LIVE.
You're not my MOM.
and if you were I would be like, "WHY DOES IT EVEN MATTER??" D:> I came onto the internet and FOUND people who feel the same way that I do about SOME things, and I like to talk to them, and share the little things I do with them for my OWN ENJOYMENT. SELF-FULFILLMENT. NOT so that people who want everything to be a carbon copy of CANON can go and rub in my face how WRONG I am, and how twisted I am as a person and a fan. How DILUSIuONAL I am for thinking about something that never happened. How ARROGANT I am for thinking my idea might be BETTER.
GUESS WHAT? I have an IMaGinATion~ O: and my IMaGInATioN~ and a little thing called IntEllEct~ allows me to come up with my OWN scenarios. It entitles me to pursue a different outcome, if ONLY WITHIN MY MIND. WHATIF syndrome, if you will. *fufu*
this WHATIF? syndrome allows me to imaGine~ things and ENJOY things and PREDICT thINGS.
Maybe I can make this simple enough for all the little thought-police to understand, since they don't seem to KNOW what an IMAGINATION is.
Before a duel between swordsman, Samurai would study the opponents, close their eyes, and try to forsee the outcome. To VIsualize to *gasp* PREDICT what would HAPPEN.
WHO will win, and WHO will lose? WhATif I did THIS here, and he did THAT there.. What would happen THEN??? HOLYCRAPIHOPEIDon'TDIE*shot*
ANYONE CAN DO IT. EVERYONE DOES IT.
NOT EVERYONE AGREES WITH THE IMaGINED OUTCOME, because we are all DIFFERENT. And WE are ENTITLED TO THE RIGHT TO DISAGREE.
'S called FREEWILL yo. so HA. TAKE THAT, Shipping-Nazi. >:[
Sure, there are things I don't like, some things I disagree with with other fans about. There are some things I think are ridiculous, sure. Like. for instance in the shipping way, I think some ships are totally repulsive.
I even state that I don't like some of the canon ships. I also happen to think that pairing heterosexual characters together in a gay relationship is gross. YEAH I JUST SAID THAT.
BUT YOU KNOW WHAT??
SO WHAT?
I KNOW THAT. I KNOW I DON'T LIKE IT SO I DON'T GO OUT LOOKING FOR IT. SO IF I SEE IT I DON'T FEEL THE NEED TO RANT ABOUT IT TO THE PEOPLE WHO LIKE THAT STUFF IN GENERAL AND ACT LIKE IT'S THE END OF THE FRICKING WORLD.
you say that I sound like a crazy nutter that bryke makes fun of when I talk about shipping.
Well you know what you sound like when you talk about what I look like??
I never should have doubted the WILL of MIKE and BRYAN~
That kind of brainwashed, simpering, singleminded JU-DEE zombie. Yep. THATS YOU, faithful Shipping-Nazi Zombie that they.. OMGOSH ALSO MOCKED?? D: GASP. OH NOES YOU HAVE TO REDEEM YOURSELF IN THEIR EYES. WHAT IF THEY DON'T LOVE YOU ANYMORE??
BAD fan.. BAD BAD FAN. >:[ GET A REALITY CHECK.
yes, they apparently do not LOVE all their fans. It seems apparent that they pretty much hate any fans that don't feel the same way they do. Whatevs, it's their show. And they're picky.
But you know what?? FANS HAVE THE RIGHT AND DUTY TO PROMOTE THE SHOW THEY LIKE.. to PROMOTE the show they LIKE ANYWAY THEY WANT. The right to promote a show they don't want CANCELLED in any way they see FIT.
FANS are suppoSED to get crazy and kooky and say stuff that doesn't make ANY SENSE.
Because; they are fans.
ITS THEIR JOB. THEY ARE FANS. REST ASSURED, WE CAN'T RUIN IT, BECAUSE WE DON'T WRITE IT. That's a job for the "CREATORS".
"POOR mike and bryan~ HAving to deal with all of these CRAZY SHIPPERS."
*cue eyeroll*
You know what?? We are actually HELPING the freaking show by just TALKING ABOUT IT. If you wanna feel sorry for them about something, feel sorry that they were too petty to realize that it's a bad idea to take what different fans say about different SHIPPINGS PERSONALLY. Or you know what? SCRATCH feeling sorry for them.
You should feel sorry for the fans who were BLINDSIDED by that SLAP IN THE FACE PUNCH IN THE GUT crap they pulled on their OWN fans, the shipping fans that happened to have a different idea of what their story meant, when they should have just felt HAPPY and GRATEFUL that SO many peopled LOVE their characters enough to THINK of them outside of what is written in the show.
YES, THEY SHOULD BE GRATEFUL. The fans don't have to be grateful, because without fans there would be no show. Just look at any show from Nick or Cartoon network over the last five years. There is more than one show that did NOT MAKE IT because they didn't have enough of a loyal BASE TO MAKE THE NETWORK CONTINUE WITH THE SERIES TO COMPLETION.
and before you get up in my grill with THIS little ditty,
"BUT then what about all the people who go and SEXUALIZE avatar with their smexy fanarts and porny fanfictions, THATs wrong! this is a kids show!!"
I COULD NOT AGREE WITH YOU MORE. this is a KIDS SHOW. so why the hell is everyone always sexing up avatar in their fanarts?? D: GASP
SO MANY BAD FANS. Where are they getting these EVIL Ideas...? Hmm.. maybe they're being influenced by WHATS IN THE FREAKING SHOW??
Like, HELLO??? did you actually WATCH IT?? have you SEEN a little episode called "THE BEACH"????
fanSERVICE
Or how about that by the end of the series, almost every. SINGLE. PERSON. over TWELVE had a ROMANTIC*gasp* SCENE!!! KISSING. BLUSHING. CANON CHARACTERS TEASING OTHER CANON CHARACTERS ABOUT GETTING A CANON GIRLFRIEND. OR A CANON BOYFRIEND.
within. the. show.
The CREATORS.. in the actual SHOW decided to make them DATE EACH OTHER! sometimes, implying A LITTLE MOAR THAN JUST HOLDING HANDS. *point to sokkaXsuki love tent interrupted by zuko in the Zuko-helps-Katara-take-vengeance episode* .. *THEN points to just about every ZukoXMai scene excuse my-tongue-in-cheek-humor* XP
If anyone can be blamed for pairing characters, look first to the creators who INFLUENCE THE FANS.
<_<; granted,Β Β sometimes the fans seem to influence the creators/writers and it's not always done badly~*coughDERPYcough*
BUT ITS UP TO THE CReATORS to make that DISTINCTION. DEY HAS BRAINS TUU.
I'm not saying that writing romance gives anyone the license to pornify the story or characters, but when you have such a wide and varied fanbase with so many different age groups watching the show, when at MORE than ONE of your comic con panelSSSSs you MOCK your fans with PORNTASTIC SCENARIOS AND INNUENDOS CONTAINING INAPPROPRIATE SITUATIONS FOR CHILDREN OR A CHILDRENS SHOW.. you are GOING TO SEE THINGS GET OUT OF HAND. so yes, AGAIN. LOOK TO THE "CREATORS" for blame in that regard. LIterally, they asked for it. They propagated it.
I daresay they ENJOY that kind of thing, based on their sense of humor so they have to deal with the ramifications, so stop WHINING about how UNFAIR everyone is to them.
Basically, what I'm trying to say to all those FAN-HATERS out there, is that you can take your preachy, creepy creator-worship, your "How dare they mess up my show with their OPINIONS and FANART OF THINGS THAT NEVER ACTUALLY HAPPENED!! CONFUSING ME!"
...and shove it.
srsly. I don't care. If you don't want to TALK to people who like to talk, then don't go and talk to them. It's so FRICKIN' SIMPLE.
Create your OWN community, you could call it "Just how bryke likes it". See?? I just gave you an idea!! WOW I iMAgiNED!~ SOMETHING for people who don't know WHAT THAT WORD MEANS.
And if you don't want to LOOK at people who don't think the "correct" way, then you better gouge out your eyes,.. or get the hellz off of the internet. 'CAUSE FOR A LITTLE while longer at least, it's FREE.
...and you just got my two cents for nothing.

*appears out of nowhere*
;;>_>...
I concur! I think people forget that the word FAN (as applied to a person, rather than that lovely object that stirs the stuffy air in one's room on hot summer days) is just short for FANATIC... So pretty much all fans are some sort of crazy XDDD Just of differing varieties... and intensities o__O;; But that's what keeps things interesting and exciting! I just wish some wouldn't try to force their particular brand of fanaticism on others >:[

haha i skimmed parts and got the general gist of it. yeah i mean I don't particularly care for some of the crazy-ass shipping in the Avatar fandom (particularly the absolutely venomous ship wars, that's where it's acceptable to facepalm and go "it's a goddamn fictional TV series, calm yo' tits") but i wouldn't go so far as to say they're ruining my fandom. I just ignore them, rofl.
you can never escape rule 34 anyway. you can only just look up "spongebob/patrick nsfw" and simultaneously laugh and stare in horror.

exactly. :{ ignoar the things. ANd I have been ignoring the people who tend to think i'm scum for SHIPPING..... but the other night I just googled a ref picture for a profile of a girl kneeling down... D: * i couldn't capture the dang ANKLES* ... AND a picture that wasn't even 2D led me to someones rant about AVATAR shippers being ridiculous and evil and blah blah blah...
I have so many friends who do not like the ships I do, or even SHIPPING but because they are not TROLLS we have an absolutely SMASHING time
I completely agree with the shipping-WARS fanatics facepalm.... where people are FIGHTINg..USELESSLY I might add... but when people are just spazzing amongst themselves and being good nice fans... 'A'
-_____- i just hate the condescension and ... everything. People are starting up on the new show shippings too and they seem to have renewed venom. <β€; like it's all LOL because we haven't even gotten attached to the characters and we're already shipping them?? And fighting over where the different relationships do/don't work..?
Honestly I am not feeling the mad love for shipping with the new series so I doubt I'll be on any side except for the "LEAVE FANS TO THEIR OWN DEVICES YOU TROLLS!" side.

i only have a problem with shipping when people are making a big fuss about it and shoving it in people's face, with all the condescension and vitriol they can muster. it's like, okay, can you talk about something other than the romantic aspects of the show? we don't like the same pairing, so what?
god and then the people wanking about canon. just... some people need to stop using this air to spread their stupid. God forbid someone write a smutfic where your character's canon is twisted a little for fun. there's a difference between playing with the canon and bad writing.
of course, it all just pisses me off cause I pay little attention to shipping in a story. feel free to ship whatever you want, just stop being a dick about it so I don't have to see your fandom wank all over my forum/dA/dashboard/whatever the hell I'm reading.
lmao looking back on my avatar fandom years i guess I did get a bit involved with some of the zutara and kataang hate... but then again I was like what, 15? and even then I didn't really care that much.

RoninMaj In reply to wee-donut [2012-04-20 05:17:49 +0000 UTC]
ogosh, the first thing i posted on bluespiritgal (when it was a blog) i got into some kind of discussion/debate thing over zutara being possible or not.
This of course, was all done before I had a username and everything was posted under "anonymous" but I didn't yell and neither did they. (can't for the life of me remember their name..) D:
Both of us came out of the debate feeling the same as before about what we thought *proving how USELESS arguing about it is...* and we never raised our cyber-voices or called each other names. it was the ONLY shipping debate i EVER got into with anyone and the last comment i made was "so are we cool?"
i can't believe i still remember that... but it's sorta how i feel about the whole shipping-craze/fan-haters bit; behind the crazy shipper with that "stupid" idea and opposite opinion, all defensive over their preference, is a PERSON. I can hate say.. MAIKO without hating someone who LOVES it. And it doesn't mean i think they're shallow or stupid or anything, so why the heck should I argue with them about it, or look down on them because of it??
that's why generalized statements like "all people who like tokka will never have a meaningful relationship" or "zutarians are kids" or "kataangers are immature" or MY PERSONAL favorite.. "Shippers are all about sex and make me ill"... just gets to me. like piCKING a fight by saying you hate people who think different and pick fights??? -__-; lmao kissmyfist.
anyway... sorry for the long post on the lengthy journal.. D: agh this issue just BOTHEReRED me.
it suffices to say that some people like romance more than others, and some people don't go for that stuff. there's nothing wrong with that, if we all liked the same things the exact same way for the same REASONS... LIFE would be so boRING.

i swear to god if the shipping wars in LoK gets as bad as the stupid three way between Aang, Katara, and Zuko did, I'm just gonna ragequit and hide from the fandom forever. Korra doesn't need to be the new Katara.
can't we all just sit back and bask in the glory of ships that is Bolin's Nose/Mako's scarf? we can all agree on that one, right?

sigh. better get the bunker ready.. .although there's a chance it won't be as bad... since they're pretty much TELLING us she's gonna kiss mako and people tend to argue less over what WILL happen when they see what IS happening.. << PLUS it's only like 12 to 20 episode series I think. D: and i'd like to point out!! other than her Water-TRibeness... I PerSonAlly dun think she IS like katara at all, despite the whole "Makorra is the new zutara" bit.. and i also don't think he is like Zuko except for the FNness.. I look at her and all I can think of is that she's aang. @-@; maybe it's too soon for me? the reincarnation bug is biting my brain >E
Have you seen the "pretty legendary" korra? -3- .. fuuuuu it is the bomb.

ahha.. if we can stop frothing at the mouth for a little bit..
and yes, I does love the scarf.. and now that you point it out, that unique nose is very unusual and cute.

they honestly remind me of people i know IRL so there's.. no way for me. -o- .. amon? now THERe's a man i could possibly get behind
what can i say? ;D i like the dark mysterious type.. unless he turns out to be the guyliner << ... theeeen imma be a tenzin fangirl the way iroh has der girls. 8D

korra is good too tho
ya I hope Amon isn't just pushing the equality thing for the evulz or something stupid like that. i really hope they drive right into well intentioned extremist territory - those are the best villains, not because they're evil, but because they could technically be right.

ehh... well you could make the argument that Ozai (and Azula) were kind of /raised/ with that kind of twisted morality and mentality. i feel like Ozai could have been explored a bit more though.
considering though that LoK is supposed to be a lot darker and geared toward older kids, I think they may just have the balls to pull off exploring a morally grey villain, rather than some dumb black-and-white junk.

OH OH OH!!! *raises hand* morally grey for me, ifuplz. O: -aka INTERESTING villain-
It leaves me feeling a little *lot* disappointed when so many other aspects of the show are written so intelligently. :[ *sigh*
The minor villains were so awesome. *dai lee leader guy, zhao, Jet to a certain extent KOH??!!omgoshsoawesome@LDFJ, hama, AZULA, and even ZUKO etc etc* all eons ahead of their time, the psychologically complex villain type.. and then we have combustion man, the hired hand~... and most anticipated villain ever.. ozai the maniacal narcissist.
and NAO we has korra villaintyme. >8D -shot-
AMON: guwah he's turning into Xmen movie magnito. XDD TAKE AWAY POWER FROm OTHERS THAT I HAS.
..unless that's a majorly confused ninety year old zuko *or is it eighty? SIGH CONFUSED* behind the mask, I don't think amon is telling the truth about facial burns >o>
