1) Person who used imagevenue (there was only one), the link was broken. Please repost the secret? If you do it to this post, I'll add it on as #10.

2) Secret-maker for #2. Resized it for you, but it technically broke the 800x800px rule. Watch out for that. :D

I agree with you. I don't like people hating characters without reason or merit, but if there's something honestly there that gives you reason to hate, then by all means do so. I tend to love most characters just because they are unique to the storyline and such and usually it's just fandom that gets to me and finally starts dislike ... but yeah. It kind of doesn't make sense.

Yeah, exactly. As mentioned above, it does get annoying if someone goes on and on about how much they hate someone, or worse, if they go on and on about it to a friend who they know likes the character they hate (that's just being an asshole in my opinion, even if I dislike the character as well) but if they're respectful about how they hate particular characters and can back up their reasons why, I don't see any problem with it. (And some characters deserve to be hated, omigosh. T_T)

You're missing the point. The secret wouldn't be made because someone hated the character for a good reason. If the character's canon makes them hateful, that's one thing. It's when people hate characters just because other people like them that pisses me off.

Maybe I should have worded that better.

Wait, are you the person who wrote the secret or are you explaining what you think they meant? *Confused.* Either way, yeah, that changes the point entirely, and I agree with that. I just don't agree in general with people ridiculing others for feeling strongly over fandom stuff. There's of course a point where things get stupid and wanky, but I feel that people tend to get way too elitist over being too good to not take fandom stuff as srs business.
