NS!1, 10, 18, 63

NS!1. That's...a really good question. Valdemar in general has all the elements you'd expect for a big, messy fandom. I wonder if it's just because it was started before internet fandom exploded all over messageboards, forums, and Livejournal?

ETA that I forgot about Mercedes Lackey being the anti-fandom type. Considering how much Valdemar resembles cheesy fanfiction, it's pretty funny...

10. Possible reasons people make an OC in an established canon:

1) They want to use that OC to provide a fresh viewpoint on the canon characters (I like doing this).
2) They like the setting and want to play with it themselves.
3) ...they want a Mary Sue, lol. But it's not all that.

I'm pretty sure it doesn't have much to do with "there aren't enough characters" (except in fandoms where...there aren't).

Not that you can't dislike OCs yourself, but, y'know.

18. I started watching GW some months back and enjoyed it plenty. I didn't finish it, but that was just because I got distracted (I, uh, do that a lot), not because I thought it sucked. So that's your theory disproved! All it takes is one counterexample, you know. 8)

...I mean, I'll admit that it sucks as much as any cheesy mecha anime with improbably teenage characters (like this is just a failing of Wing??), but "people only like X because they are deluded in Y way" statements are dumb.

63. Man, when did this happen? Back when I was in Geass fandom it was full of the good crack and plenty of rabid insanity and pointless vitriol.

63)I was about to ask the same question. Since when was Geass fandom sane?

Re: 63

[wishmasterfuuma.livejournal.com]

I think... since the new season started and everyone became more interested in discussion? Maybe?

Btw, I really like your journal name.

Re: 63

[kumagoro-usagi.livejournal.com]

That's true. Season 1 tended to attract more crazy.

Haha I guess you got the reference. Thanks

I'm also just a generic fan of rabbits. Amongst my friends, I'm teh bunny. ^_^


I feel like this means all of my cracky ideas need to leave IM and enter the comms, now.

And then I'm afraid my cracky ideas are only cracky to me?...

*whistles* If you go hunting for the old text files the mercedes-lackey listserv list, there's probably wank a-plenty...
