But everybody's allowed to have their opinion

But that's it. It's an opinion, in which case, they don't have the right to get all bitchy over it. Sure, us creators may screw something up, we may do a 180 on a character without rightfully explaining it, but they're ours. Fans don't have the right to get honest to God angry over canon being "wrong," or even the right to say it's "wrong," because it's not their's. They don't own it. They're fans.

Sure they can have head!canon, but another way to say that is: mental fanfiction. It's when people get they're opinionated head!canon mixed up with real canon, and then get pissy about it, that I put my foot down. Sure, a fan may say it's not in character for Character A to do such or Character B to do that, but they're not in the position to get pissed that it happened, or ignore the fact that it did.

Fans are just that: fans. They need to stop thinking they know better than creators, because, in the end, the stories don't belong to them, they belong to the creators, and, as the poster above stated, in stories, creators are God.

As creators, we shouldn't be beating people into "This is the way it is, and therefore it's right because I fucking said so."

So basically, I'm disagreeing. I'm not saying creators should stifle creativity, or say no to fans writing fanfiction, but when it comes to canon, creators have every right to say, "This is how it is because that's the way it works."

I know many people in TV write to the fans, and a lot of big name authors eventually start to do it too, but as for me, and a boatload of other creators, I do what I do because I like it. I write what I write, and my fans don't have a say in any of it. I'll write my stories with fans, I'll write them without them. But, in my opinion, it's when creators start to let their fans' voices influence them, that stories and characters really start to change, and it's usually for the worse.
