Um, no. Oh lol no. Yes, she has similarities to Donna, but she also has things she has absolutely nothing in common with Donna at all. You're cherry-picking like mad. Not to mention ignoring Donna's own similarities to Rose (which don't devalue her own character at all).

Also, um, I feel obligated to tell you this to stop you from embarrassing yourself: I can read your four other identical replies to the other people above. You don't have to repeat it every time, it just looks silly.

But I don't really care about that - it's all trivia. What really repulses me is that in a secret about Ten and Donna's wonderful, amazing, awesome friendship, you just decided to spew venom about a totally different character. That's beyond the pale in terms of fandom etiquette, as far as I'm concerned.

Anyone who's done a character comparison knows that two characters don't have to be exactly alike to be similar. In fact, that's pretty much what similar means. And I never said that Donna wasn't like Rose or even like Martha in other ways. And, as I mentioned upthread, I wouldn't have had such an issue with Amy's character is I didn't think Moffat had ruined her potential. Because doing a similar thing twice isn't a huge deal if it's done well both times. But I think he really screwed the pooch with how he followed through on Amy's setup.

That's beyond the pale in terms of fandom etiquette, as far as I'm concerned.

If you think fandom has etiquette in Fandom Secrets, then we differ in our modes of thought in more ways that just our feelings on Donna and Amy.

And yet you're all over this thread whining about how mean people are being to you for derailing the thread to bash another character. "It's Fandom Secrets lol" goes both ways, sorry.

[wldcatsprstr_14]

Whining? Sorry, pretty sure I didn't do any whining. In fact, I recall actually saying I respected the people who flat out called me on my knee-jerky rant and agreeing with them. So yea.

Of course this doesn't apply to people making personal attacks (I'm in the camp of 'get what you give' and I haven't done any of that).

Yeah, no, you don't get to declare your particular brand of uncivilized behavior okay and other peoples' not okay. You opened with a shitty comment and some other people are being shitty to you back as a result. Such is life on FS.

Honey. You had a major freak out over the fact that Character B appears, to you, to be kind of like Character A. Maybe in your universe, that's totally normal and acceptable behavior, but in everyone else's universe, that's ridiculous and classifies as "whining."
