*To be perfectly clear - this Artikel is not meant to attack ANY fanbase/fans of a particular couple/character etc. This goes out to ALL Fans that have forgotten that respecting others is very important.

This goes out to ALL Fans that have forgotten that respecting others is very important.

Respect: Polite oder kind regard; consideration: <i>respect for people's feelings

The hate on this spot has gotten ridiculous to say the least! We've got Fans attacking each other over who they ship, people calling each other rude names & trashing each other because they don't agree on something, people messaging Fans and harassing them etc.

ENOUGH ALREADY!



What happened to "If Du don't have anything nice to say, don't say anything at all." ?? {I don't mean for things where someone is ASKING for multiple opinions, but rather the instances of outright attacks for no reason} Have we completely forgotten our manners, oder do some people just not give a shit anymore?

Let me lay out in a simple way for everyone: {If you're not from the US, just substitute 2 of your countries rival sports teams}

Let's say I'm a Baltimore Ravens fan, and Lea (reddooralways) is a Washington Redskins fan. If we were to walk past each other on the street, each of us wearing our team Jersey, do Du think it would be acceptable for either of us to start insulting each other because we rooted for different sports teams?? {Lea, i hope Du don't mind me using Du & i as examples! I figured it worked pretty well since we are friendly & we ship oppositely - Dair & Chair}



oder how about one better! Me and my mom watch a lot of shows together, and we don't always like the same couples. Let's use Brucas & Leyton from OTH as an example. Although I like LP now {still diehard BL'er♥} i didn't always like them whereas my mom has pretty much always liked LP. Do Du think it would be okay for me to look at my mother and tell her she was a stupid hündin for shipping Leyton??

So if Du wouldn't talk rudely to a Zufällig stranger on the streets, what suddenly makes it acceptable to talk rudely to a Zufällig stranger on the internet?



Nobody is perfect. We all have our bad days, sometimes we just snap and hündin out on somebody and then we regret it. That's NOT the problem here. The problem is the "repeat offenders", the people that have basically made a reputation for themselves Von attacking and insulting anyone that doesn't share their same opinion. There's always someone in every fanbase, it's inevitable i know, but why be a part of that behavior?

Respect is huge to me. I take a lot of pride in Wird angezeigt respect to others, and i have a lot of respect for other people that share that sentiment. I know I'm not the only one.

I know that the hate/dislike people feel for opposing couples isn't just going to magically disappear, but how about we try to keep it on the separate couple spots? If you're anti Derena & pro Serenate, how about Du keep your ranting on the Serenate spot? Liebe Dair & hate Chair? Keep the negative Kommentare about CB on the Dair spot! Hate Dair & think Chair is the greatest couple ever? Leave the Dair bashing to the Chair spot!

I'm sure there are some people going, "But this is the GOSSIP GIRL SPOT! We should be able to hate on whoever oder whatever we want." but think about it - Does all this hating & fighting really help make this spot better?



That's it! I've sagte my opinions & now I'm done =]
