Yeah, I can tell it's May ...

This makes the second troll my Will community has attracted from [livejournal.com profile] sparrabeth in the past month. (You've gotta scroll to the bottom of those pages for it.) Why do I think that? Oh, I don't know - just a hunch.

This wasn't a criticism of my writing style (which would be fair). It was simply an excuse to anonymously bitch in a minority forum and denounce anything that takes fan focus off Jack and/or Elizabeth.

And no, neither of these comments are particularly horrifying, but as it gets closer to May 23 and some J/E fans get meaner about not getting their way ... well, I haven't lived this long not to spot a problem a mile away. I don't want to have to resort to disabling anonymous commenting in a fan forum. Are there any community mods on my f-list who have dealt with this, with advice? I already made a short post asking "visitors" to the comm to be respectful of the members there, but I wonder if it'll work.

Geez o pete. I didn't realizing having a Will community would be like disagreeing with the Mafia! LOL


Seriously, I keep reading how J/E fans are so much older and more mature than us "13-year-old hormonal" Will/Orlando fans. Me no think so.

You know, before DMC I always had a thing for J/E. I thought they'd make an interesting, if explosive, pairing. But my goodness! Since it became canon, the wank has gotten ridiculous. *hides in the J/E closet*
Ah, well. I was always an outandproud Turrow girl anyway. They've always had my true love.

But what on earth is wrong with Will? Why all the hate for him? I just don't understand. Is it because he's somehow a threat to a J/E relationship? Personally, if I had the choice of two hot guys who both wanted me I'd ...(well I'd want them do do each other) BUT I don't see why it's an issue. If that makes sense. So, Liz could be with two guys. Where is the down side in that?

I bet everyone's cranky because they know it's Disney and they won't get their way. I'm sorry someone had to commentvomit on your fic.

As I pointed out to [livejournal.com profile] geek_mama_2, there's no way Disney would be down with the J/W/E thing. It can be done in fanfic - and I'm sure it will be - but onscreen it'll never happen.

Course not. It's Disney.
But, yes, that is why we have fanfic. :)
