Comments

[(Anonymous)]

You are the only one who replied attacking a specific ship. The anon made a general statement. You replied specifically naming names and also attacking their slash goggles. You could have replied saying something along the lines of... "there is more than one ship in Trek who tries to wave the cannon banner and yes I agree it gets annoying, I wish it would stop" or "lauding something as cannon in the Trek fandom is widely spread, more than one side participates and I wish that wasn't the case", did you do either of these things to get the same point across? NO YOU DID NOT. You said:

... that is what K/S fans do all the time. (insert "ZOMG THYLA soulmates destiny ZOMG subtext we're canon GR basically said that!Look at this quote taken out of context that proves GR didn't object to slash fans my ship is canon your argument is invalid! ")

And came off sounding snotty and ire-rising, like you were issuing a battle cry. And I'm not even invested and I thought this. I could care less what your personal views on the K/S ship and its shippers are, but I do care that every single secret that gets posted here is either shipper related or quickly becomes so in the comments. When I saw this yesterday I wanted to give OP a big, huge hug in thank you for pretty much reading my mind and voicing what I've wanted to say for ages now.

You know, I was totally ambivelant about S/U in Reboot. I was more interested in the clever backstory of each of the crew and how they still managed to come together despite AOS being an alternate universe. The romance aspect didn't bother me, though nor did I wet myself in glee over it either, but were I inclined to ship it? I'd stay well away because of how crazy and defensive the shippers are (as you've given us a clear example of with this thread).

DA

who is ire-rising now? You're having pretty much the same reaction you're saying that the other person had. Unlike you the other person didn't comment anonymously so if you really didn't want to generate a new shipper war but wanted to reply to that person you could have send them a private message.

Telling people to GTFO doesn't help either. This is a public community not your personal blog where you get to decide who can post. I still haven't read a shipper from those groups saying that to the other fans even in the worst discussions here.

And I'm not even invested and I thought this
ehhh...after these comments you made here I find it hard to believe that you're really "not invested" and you could "care less". If this is your reaction for something you don't care about It's scaring to think how you'd react if people were talking about your shipper. Sorry but I don't buy that. You have your own personal reasons for replying just like everyone here otherwise you wouldn't have replied so passionately.

at least other people here are are honest with their opinions and they don't hide behind the non shipper flag.

the shippers have a reason to get defensive at least
what's your reason?
assuming that the other comment was a wank bait you fell for it and now you sound just as crazy and defensive (and I think the word you wanted to use is overinvested).
You're not helping.
