Why do fan sites have to be so frustrating?
Saturday, November 15, 2008

Not this site, obviously. You're all wonderful here. No, I'm talking specifically about Supernatural.tv.

A few months ago I had the misfortune of deciding to have a look at TWOP and I have to say that is one of the bitchiest sites I have ever been on.

Now SN.TV is turning the same way. Which is a shame because it used to be a nice forum. Now it seems to be overrun by petty bitches who seem to do nothing but whine and complain about every little thing.

You have the Sam fans complaining about Dean, the Dean fans complaining about Sam, people whining that the show isn't as good as the first season (what the hell are they on about? I love the show but the first season was the weakest of them all).

Now I'm all for a bit of debate as long as it is civil bbut these people are turning the site into a place that I don't want to go to.

For example, last night I commented on a person's post using an example from Buffy (I thought it was a perfectly valid point) and this person commented back saying that he/she didn't care because they'd never seen Buffy. This person just completely tore apart my post just because I slightly disagreed with theirs. I'd post exactly what they did write but I can't go back and read it again because I'm still fuming. And its not the first tiume this particualr person has been bitchy about one of my posts.

And it's not just the posters. The mods are useless (You rarely ever see them in the controversial topics) and the super mods are dictatorial and too full of their own self importance. They immediately close down topics they don't like and leave the rest even though they are full of bithcing and backstabbing. It's really starting to get to me.

Sorry for the rant but I am really angry right now

I can help MsA if you want... brats are everywhere - I know - they make you want to shout at the damn monitor but as far as I see it, you shouldn't let them ruin your fun. They're just not worth it!!

but with rwed, it's real life so you expect tensions to run high. This is a fansite for a TV show. People should not be that bitchy about a TV show. It's not the be all and end all of life which character gets more screen time

Yeah, I think RWED lances the boil here. Plus we all have pretty much the same basic emotions here (disappointment, despair, uncontrollable rage against Fox execs, etc) so we don't disagree so much.

When the discussions revolve around Firefly or Serenity things are usually copacetic here, but if you ever venture into RWED then you know things can be as heated and vitriolic as anything else on the net.
