I couldn't care less about fandom. I haven't been in it for years because it pisses me off so much. There are some great people in it, but on a whole, I can't stand it. I just think it's HILARIOUS when people wank about how J.K. has 'ruined' her own books, JUST because their ship got sunk.

So basically, even though you said it wasn't about ships in your secret, you just said it IS about ships.

When will the Mary-Sue!Ginny loving, R/Hr bastards stop w/ being so hypocritical? Your secret's just poorly-masked bashing of a specific group in this fandom that doesn't act the way YOU think they should.

You care about the whole ship thing just as much as anyone else. It's painfully obvious. You're not better than anyone else.

And just because someone doesn't like the way something turned out, and doesn't like being called "stupid" and "delusional" doesn't mean they're any worse of a fan than you, who all you seem to care about is people's crazy reactions. Just because some of us don't bow down to the great god Rowling doesn't mean we're not real fans.

I'm a fan of both H/Hr and R/Hr, but I still don't see the logic in saying that just because you can critique and find fault and imagine different paths for the characters in a book, it makes you a shitty fan.
