Re: Advice needed - In-Fandom bullying

This. Not to mention that people get bitchier when they run in packs. It gets to be less about the person they're hating on, and more about bonding with one another by being assholes. Irrational, but there you have it.

AYRT

Oh, absolutely, and to be honest I think that's what happened with the people who were saying those things - one person provided an "opening", and suddenly people felt comfortable saying things they normally wouldn't. So I think - and this may be true for the OP too - they were probably less worried about what a sucky buzzkill I was and more frustrated with fandom stuff in general, and I just became their target point for a few thread pages.

OP here

And yeah , that's pretty much exactly what happened to me. A friend of the BNF that was friendly with me started the hate tweets because I ship her NOTP, and the BNF just joined in. It was all pretty nasty though.
