It is SO CONFUSING. I mean, I suppose it's because the smaller pairings are harder to pick fights with (especially since the Kara/Leoben and Kara/Sam contingents tend to have lots of crossover, from what I've seen).

But the big one I remember was the "which ship is more popular" poll from last year. There were sock puppets! And flames!

[identity profile] dashakay.livejournal.com 2009-01-19 11:29 pm (UTC)(link)
Wow. Seriously, don't people have jobs and school and families and friends? Because that takes a LOT of spare time to have ship wars like that.

I'm pretty rabid about my ship but it doesn't cross over into other people's ships. Because WHATEVER.

And what if you have several ships? A/R is my big ship, but I'm also a Kara/Leoben and Kara/Sam girl and Gaeta/anyone and even sometimes Laura/Lee. Am I seen as a traitor by the tinhats?

Some get on from work, I think? I don't know, I try to avoid doing that, m'self (I was off today).

I try not to be rabid about my ship, but I'm occasionally mono-theistic about it.

Dude, multi-shipping is a LIE. At least, that's what I've been told...

Am I seen as a traitor by the tinhats?

Yes, actually. You're seen as 'not dedicated enough'.

[identity profile] dashakay.livejournal.com 2009-01-20 12:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, actually. You're seen as 'not dedicated enough'.

FEH. It's called having a life.
ext_18106: (Tricia gets a piggy-back ride)

[identity profile] lyssie.livejournal.com 2009-01-21 02:12 am (UTC)(link)
HAHAH. Or, in my case, "But they would look hot together." (actually, that can be said for a lot of multi-shippers.)

[identity profile] pkbitchgirl.livejournal.com 2009-01-20 01:22 am (UTC)(link)
Sockpuppets? Did anyone venture into 'make a sock puppet and flame fic/fanart of OTP under guise of being a member of the rival ship in order to make rival ship look bad' territory?
I was at a Stargate convention last year and a Sheppard/Teyla shipper said she done that to try and make the Sheppard/Weir shippers look bad. She said she hoped the producers (yeah like Joe Mallozzi has time to look at fanart, let alone look at fanart AND read the comments) would see the flame, think the Sheppard/Weir shippers were batshit and go with Sheppard/Teyla instead.
I thought "you're the batshit one, love"
ext_18106: (lizzie hot chicks)

[identity profile] lyssie.livejournal.com 2009-01-20 03:20 am (UTC)(link)
Noooo. I don't think they have in BSG fandom yet.

And why does that not surprise me. Dammit, Atlantis het-shippers. It doesn't matter who we ship, we should be sticking the frell together! (to be honest, I wouldn't put it past the Weir/Sheppard people to pull something similar. Just because we got our start in bestiality and hilarity doesn't mean we aren't full of scary people now)

[identity profile] pkbitchgirl.livejournal.com 2009-01-20 03:27 am (UTC)(link)
Bestiality? In Stargate Atlantis? Do tell, or are you referring to human/wraith pairings?

I don't really ship anyone much in Atlantis (I really dislike Rodney/Keller, mainly because I dislike the whole 'if two guys are showing interest in a girl, that means she HAS TO pick one of them', I wanted her to end up with someone who wasn't Rodney or Ronon, mainly to see that confused/hurt look of Rodney's)
ext_18106: (Hathor)

[identity profile] lyssie.livejournal.com 2009-01-21 02:17 am (UTC)(link)
Sadly, there was no actual fic. But one of the early discussions (brought on, iirc, because there was a PG13 Sheppard/Weir list out there with Very Strict Rules) centered on dolphins and other such things.

Someone also suggested wraithskin condoms.

*laughs* That's a good reason. I... sort of vaguely ship various people. Sometimes, I think Atlantis is just one big floating orgy, though.

[identity profile] agnes-bean.livejournal.com 2009-01-20 04:15 am (UTC)(link)
Wow. Hearing about this makes me really happy I'm not in the BSG fandom (I just started watching it 2 weeks ago...only four more episodes to go and I'm all caught up!). Because, honestly? In my head I ship everyone with everyone. Seriously. Like, every time character interact I'm like "hmmm, it would be interesting to read fic about them." Which speaks to the complexity of all the characters and their interactions. It makes me sad that people are miltant

[identity profile] graziaplena.livejournal.com 2009-01-20 05:01 am (UTC)(link)
There was a secret here a few months ago that neatly summed up my problem with BSG fandom -- it showed a typical week's fic output, and 99% of the roughly 30 stories was either Kara/Lee or Adama/Roslin. Like, there are DOZENS of characters with fully fleshed personalities in this damn show...why do people ignore them? I mean, I know there are communities for Sharon/Helo, Baltar/Six, Gaeta/Anybody, but they make just a drop in the bucket compared to the fan attention paid to the "core four" or whatever. It's strange.

[identity profile] agnes-bean.livejournal.com 2009-01-20 04:36 pm (UTC)(link)
And here I was being sad I hadn't watched the show earlier, because I would have enjoyed so many different pairings in fic. I guess I mainly just missed out on a lot of frustration.

(Indeed, Adama/Roslin and Kara/Lee are two of the ships I'd be LEAST interested in reading about, because while I really like them both, I'm totally content to just see where they go in canon, at least for now).

I think a part of it is that it honestly isn't as large a fandom as it seems, so the pool of writers is smaller.

Second, to be cynical, writing the big two garners a lot more feedback. Though I tend to think it's more that people write what they think people want to read--not for the feedback so much as to provide what people like. If that makes sense.
