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

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

The hate on this spot has gotten ridiculous to say the least! We've got 팬 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 팬 and harassing them etc.

ENOUGH ALREADY!



What happened to "If 당신 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, 또는 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 당신 think it would be acceptable for either of us to start insulting each other because we rooted for different sports teams?? {Lea, i hope 당신 don't mind me using 당신 & i as examples! I figured it worked pretty well since we are friendly & we ship oppositely - Dair & Chair}



또는 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 브루카스 & 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 당신 think it would be okay for me to look at my mother and tell her she was a stupid 암캐, 암 캐 for shipping Leyton??

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



Nobody is perfect. We all have our bad days, sometimes we just snap and 암캐, 암 캐 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 의해 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 showing 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 당신 keep your ranting on the Serenate spot? 사랑 Dair & hate Chair? Keep the negative 코멘트 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 또는 whatever we want." but think about it - Does all this hating & fighting really help make this spot better?



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