One character altered for the worse. VII fandom is literally EVERYONE.

I shouldn't have to friend a grand total of five-ish authors, avoid 90% of all LJ comms, not even BOTHER with FFN. You make it sound like it's completely tolerable, and when only 10% if even that of fandom is available to me in my quest to avoid Comp shit or shit tainted by Comp shit, it's really not. This wouldn't even be an issue if Comp fandom was completely divided from original game fandom, but it's not. Instead of splitting it, it just infected and ruined the fandom.

I've been in fandom almost all of the ten years it's been out, and you can imagine the heartbreak at seeing one's primary and gateway fandom with so much time poured into it ruined by stupid fangirls and Nomura being a brainless twat. I'm not angry, just disappointed.

I also lurk in SW fandom, and while yeah a lot of it's all about Obi-Wan and Anakin or the more tolerable Obi-Wan and Qui-Gon, it's way way way way better.
