=____= (GW fandom rant)
Sometimes I miss the GWA board. It was full of smart and interesting people with a variety of pairings and ideas, and stupid flame wars weren't tolerated. I wish something like that would exist for the Naruto fandom.
Sometimes I miss the GWA board. And then I go back, and I realize that lots of the oldbies have left (some have jumped ship with me XD), or they're not as deep in the "community" as I remember them being, and all that's left is the annoying brainless fantwits, spamming the board with all-important questions that have less to do with military grades in OZ, or cultural and sociological studies of the Colonies, or where exactly in Europe Sank could logically be located, than they have to do with "if Duo was a hairdresser, how would you rate his hairdressing abilities on a scale of one to ten?" "if Trowa was a diver." "if Wufei was a ninja." What. The. Fuck.
Why. WHY. is it that every time I come back half the messages on the first page are by that person, and they're almost ALL as pointless as the previous ones. WHY CAN'T SHE KEEP HER STUPID BRAIN GLITCHES IN ONE TOPIC. No actually no, I was never unable to sleep because I was tortured by the immortal question: Duo, little scythes or little skulls on his boxers? And it says something that most of her topics are even more inane, pointless and WTF-inducing than the boxers question. which is my own example. Hers hurt my brain too much for me to remember. The hairdresser and ninja stuff, though? Totally hers.
I'm never wandering back to the General forum ever again. I'll post my fics and leave, nostalgia be damned.
