It's probably because I got in the fandom so late, that I find so many different and conflicting sources about what was going on in those seasons (Personally, I did hate Bela, so I can't say I was sad to see her go. I just hated HOW she went). I had no idea that Kripke disliked the Roadhouse characters, since I thought Ellen and Jo, up until their useless deaths, had wonderful episodes written for them. Interesting. And sad at the same time.
I'd have liked for Anna to stay in limbo too. At this point I'm in (s6, ep 9), I'm starting to cringe every time a female character returns for a second episode because I fear for them.
Aww... thanks :) I love both characters on their own (Dean more than Cas, to be honest. Right now, I get the feeling that the writers have no idea what to do with Cas and it's sad), but I also love their relationship and it's sad that in all the places I've seen that are for general fandom (because I also love the rest of the series, even if I'm really unhappy with Sam at the moment), I have seen a lot of hostility against the Dean and Cas ship. Even in places like this, I end up seeing how the shippers are the worst crazies ever, and I have to be honest, it's the weirdest sensation ever to actually ship a ship that is very popular in the fandom... and at the same time is so hated (I used to only ship rare pairs, so yeah, new experience)

(Bela was an effective villain. She was a complete and total failure as a human being. She'd make a passable crossroads demon, though.)

Hyperbole and generalizations are rampant in fandom. Most Destiel shippers aren't crazy people who hate Sam/Jared, most Wincest shippers aren't tinhatters who hate Cas/Misha, and most fans of any camp don't hate or wish harm on any of the actors' families. But the ones who do tend to be extremely vocal and persistent, and there's just enough of them to give their more reasonable fellows a bad name and trigger negative reactions even when a sane shipper just gets a little bit overenthused.

Myself, I'm a Cas!girl all the way and I don't ship him with Dean, though I like Dean fine and I love their friendship. I sail the tiny, feeble little ghost ship of Cas and Anna. *Waves little rarepair flag* XD But I follow a number of Destiel shippers and they're quite nice people. I do wish it was easier to find Cas fans who don't ship it, but, them's the breaks, and I can always blacklist Destiel if I really need to.
