What the hell fandom @_@

As some of you may or may not know, a person called SheikV had his YT account deleted a few days ago. He had a ton of 5D’s eps uploaded to his account as well.

Janime went absolutely apeshit over this, to the point of death threats. Good god, overreacting much? There’s much more things to get upset about, plus there’s at least five different uploaders for episodes anyway. Even PrismWeapon, the quicksubs uploader, still has her stuff.

So I told them to get off their high horses and stop making a fuss over it and promptly got flamed for it. I also got negged for apparently negging somebody else but I haven’t negged in at least two months and if I do so, I do it anon wise. And another accused me of trolling for having a valid opinion on the matter. Might have been Elly aka if you like GX (or Naruto or Gundam SEED Destiny or any anime she/he hates) you have no right to an opinion what so ever, but idk.

Also people need to stop throwing shit on 4kids for this WHEN THEY ACTUALLY SUPPORT FANSUBS NOW 8U

Teal Deer: Everything is fine just some people need to gtfo of my fandom

It's things like this that make me glad I left Janime.

Shriek has had like 5+ accounts in the past that have been killed. I haven't ever seen this big of a reaction out of the fandom. Kudos to you though. Someone needs to stand up against the mob. These people are probably just pissy preteens or early teens anyway. DX

[digitalstarry.livejournal.com]

Yeah, he'll probably make another one and if he doesn't? Tough shit its illegal anyway.

[voltanis.livejournal.com]

But still. People just need to get over it. IT'S FRIKKIN' LIFE!! There are ups and downs. It's not like they need to get this angry over one frikkin post. DX

[atorasu.livejournal.com]

I WANT TO WRITE THAT TOO OMFG THAT WOULD BE SO INCREDIBLE.

LIKE.

EPIC HAIR SEX. JUST WHOA.

[northwind-gale.livejournal.com]

Hm. I've already stated my opinion on this, but really, now. Overreactions much? I've never actually signed onto the Janime forums, but I've heard enough about them to not want to. Hm.

PFFFFF WRITE IT WRITE IT WRITE IT. BECAUSE I PROBABLY WON'T GET AROUND TO IT.

[arynis.livejournal.com]

*snerk* That Aki expression is gold. XD

I've seen your blog post and the thread. I took a look inside the thread and left it shortly after. Serious Business. I'm sorry about the reps. :x

[rhodanum]

I've read over that particular thread.... and some things in there made me want to bash my head against the nearest solid surface. Death threats, people? Heh, this reminds me of the whole kerfuffle in the Torchwood fandom, where some nutty people posted death threats to the writers and even to the actors themselves because a popular character had been killed off. The media had a field day with this, of course -- painting the fandom as a whole in a very negative light just because a few wankers went over the line.

I admit, I'm pretty annoyed by the fact that Shriek's account got deleted (mostly since I still need to watch some early Season I episodes and I'm not at all certain if PrismWeapon has them) and my irritation isn't helped by the fact that my favorite GX AMVs got deleted again (thankfully, I managed to save one of them to my hard-drive). Way to go, NAS -- antagonize the Western fans, why don't you? -_-

I'll bet you anything it must have been Elly (for whom I have some epithets that certainly can't be used in civilized company). I doubt there's any other person in this fandom (well, maybe The_Gunder as well) who can make my blood-pressure rise straight into the stratosphere with their very presence. There was someone else as well, in one of those threads, who acted all prissy and offended at the idea of the 10th anniversary special and couldn't stand the idea of the sequels mucking up his 'precious DM'. I'm not even going to mention the blockheads who keep touting the '5Ds is the true/worthy successor of DM' line, because I'd be giving myself a migraine again. ^^;;

Man, what a fandom.....

[digitalstarry.livejournal.com]

Yeah its just one dude's account :/

[digitalstarry.livejournal.com]

XDDD Momentum, the baby will be born out of momentum |D

Oh god what is that icon XD

[digitalstarry.livejournal.com]

Trust me, the only real reason to get an account there is to get 5D's spoilers first :/

fffffffffff

[volkner.livejournal.com]

I'm just as peeved off about the whole "deletion" thing since I like rewatching the older episodes, but to the point of death threats? PLEASE. And here I thought fandom couldn't get any stupider.

[digitalstarry.livejournal.com]

pfft

Yeah, I think its because I couldn't honestly care since I haven't looked in Shiek's account for months but jeez it isn't helping the problem.

[digitalstarry.livejournal.com]

:C Well if you need links to older episodes I can get them for you <3

[digitalstarry.livejournal.com]

Yeah at least a character death is more justifiable then an episode account deleted. But still sometimes character deaths improve the series as a whole *prods Gurren Lagann* But yeah its maddening with the nutcases ruin the fandom as a whole too.

GLL99 I'm fairly certain has some of the early season one uploaded. Hopefully I can find the GX manga MAD amv somewhere on my harddrive or on niconico

Yes, but Japan is infamous for giving the cold shoulder to outsiders though :/

Elly I'm sure, since she hates people who have different opinions then her :/

>< No no, the fact that the OVA isn't canon and written by the creator himself isn't pleasing enough? Man... people are just idiots. Which makes the fandom really run bad since YGO main theme is friendship and acceptance of others :/

[volkner.livejournal.com]

thanks, i'll call you when i need you :'D ♥

[on-a-corndog.livejournal.com]

Now you see why the 5Ds fandom scares the shit out of me.

[iceyly]

I guess, it's kind of a pity that the account is lost; it had somewhat good quality, but it's not unique and I was more upset about the loss of that quick uploader, who had episodes up an hour after airing than over this. Getting worked up over stuff like this, especially to the point of death threats, is more than overkill anyway. I admire you for standing up against this; alone looking through janime forums is enough to make me nervous.

[atorasu.livejournal.com]

BONDS WILL GIVE BIRTH TO A MIRACLEEE!!!

But the question is...

Yugi & Judai: WTF! ARE YOU SURE YOU'RE THE MAIN CHARACTER?
Yusei: Yeah, why?
Yugi: Because... you...
Judai: BECAUSE YOU DON'T HAVE A KURIBOH!!!

[atorasu.livejournal.com]

LULZ~

DANANANANANANANA BATMANNNNNN~

[lokcha.livejournal.com]

lol wow....talk about bringing a shit storm into the fandom.

XD but ur Aki icon....lol it's a gold win!

[digitalstarry.livejournal.com]

Well a good part of the fandom is quuite insane or catty but Janime is probably the worst of it.

[digitalstarry.livejournal.com]

<3!

[digitalstarry.livejournal.com]

Yeah me too Barcelna on Veoh and Sentaq on YT is still faster and PrismWeapon is still around.

I hate most of Janime anyway, the only good thing about it is spoilers are up faster

[digitalstarry.livejournal.com]

I adore it too such a funny expression XD~

[on-a-corndog.livejournal.com]

[digitalstarry.livejournal.com]

Pffft

There's Kuribon, and Stardust can kick Kuriboh's ass XD

[atorasu.livejournal.com]

... Who came up with that line? o.O

LOL I forgot about Kuribon <3

But that's not Yusei's I don't think ;___; Road Runner is cute too, though.

[digitalstarry.livejournal.com]

Actually thats a funny story that I witnessed myself.

About two/three weeks ago, new info for the crossover OVA came out about confirming who was going to be in it and that Takahashi was doing it. Horoko translated one of the lines as "The Bonds That Will Give Birth to a Miracle." In a chat I attend regularly, somebody joked about Yusei giving birth to this "miracle" and it snowballed from there XD.

Which reminds me that I need to steal your AIM XD

Nope, Kuribon belongs to Ruka.

[atorasu.livejournal.com]

Oh <3 My AIM is SuFinFTW :3<

S:DLFKSJDFSD YUSEI. OH THOSE KIZUNA~

[rhodanum]

True, but it still doesn't warrant the casual tossing about of death-threats -- especially when it's often a vocal minority making the rest of fandom look just as batshit as them.

I'll have to check out his account for that, since I've been mainly using it for GX re-watching. As for those MADs, I have the manga one -- was inspired to download it several weeks ago and it's sitting safely in my computer right now. If you want, I can upload it to a different site than Youtube or send it to you, if you can't find it.

Apparently not, judging by his tone (he was being vigorously contradicted by Gran_Mole, who was pointing out the very same things, but it didn't manage to get more out of him rather than very sarcastic replies. Heh, purists. (And yes -- the basic message of the series seems to have flown right over the heads of many, if what I've seen so far is any indication :p)

[birdofsatellite.livejournal.com]

*Sighs* I wonder if Janime herself ever bothers to check Saar's her forum anymore. I can remember when it used to be a great forum. =(

I'm rather disappointed his account got deleted as I was still watching his subs, but I would never make death threats.

[digitalstarry.livejournal.com]

I don't think she even cares anymore really :/

[birdofsatellite.livejournal.com]

Don't blame her even though she's a very nice person.

[hautalken.livejournal.com]

Yeah, they do overreact don't they? It wasn't like that back in 06, people just flip over the silliest stuff.

That's why lots of members are leaving, imo.
