(Anonymous) 2015-05-09 12:23 am (UTC)(link)anyone random who is a Tumblr user and not part of "the fandom" could post and tag something "Pokemon"
Re: Anons need not apply
(Anonymous) 2015-05-09 12:35 am (UTC)(link)True, and as you might note I did acknowledge in my earlier comment that of course, not all of tumblr is a fandom community. But fandom communities DO exist on tumblr, and I guess I'm assuming, considering the context this discussion is happening in, that we're talking about tagging within fandoms (that is, people posting negative opinions about a fandom they're active in).
Obviously, there are going to be posts in a tag from people outside the fandom. It's not a super regimented system, by any means. Nobody's really going to police every use of a fandom tag to make sure it ~meets the standards of the fandom (alert: sarcasm.)
What we're talking about is actually a much more straightforward issue. If you're making a post containing hate for a particular thing or character, if you KNOW that people who like that thing would rather people posting hate about it not use a particular tag......why do you need to use that tag? Surely, surely, that's just common courtesy.
Re: Anons need not apply
You assumed incorrectly. People that are not in the fandom but are tagging hate will get as much ire as a person in fandom tagging hate; unless you're in a very small fandom people aren't going to go "Oh yeah that's Jean I know she's not in this fandom, I'll let it pass."
I don't think I've ever seen anyone argue for exceptions to the "do not hate!" argument.
Re: Anons need not apply
(Anonymous) 2015-05-09 12:46 am (UTC)(link)In my fandoms, people who are obviously just n00bs who don't know any better usually just get zero notes on their tagged hate. It's the people who are doing it to stir shit or ~make a statement~ about the evil fandom hivemind silencing free speech who get people telling them to chill. And even then, people are caring less and less as the website ages. Most tagged hate doesn't even net a derisive gif anymore.
Re: Anons need not apply
(Anonymous) 2015-05-09 12:38 am (UTC)(link)because it's relevant and not all tags come with explicit rules and no one has the right to enforce rules on a tag that isn't a community and able to be used by anyone???
you can't even compare it to posting hate on a dw community because dw communities don't have rules against hate, if you love the show but hated an episode you ARE allowed to post rants in most general communities about it unless it's bashing a character on a character-fan community or something
are you being purposely obtuse?? i cant even tell
Re: Anons need not apply
They might be trolling. After all, they did deliberately pretend I was talking about "an inanimate website's feelings" when they knew very well that people commonly refer to staff's decisions by the website's name.
