gingerhairedimmortal: Had to delete the blog I had whose express purpose was spreading love to the fandom because of all the hate mail it got over the last 24 hours.

Which is especially sad considering I hadn’t been on that blog since Friday so it had nothing to do with any of the drama

Pain is a part of people’s lives.  I do everything I can to try to ease that pain with everyone I meet.  

In the words of my former alter-ego, Try spreading the love to the VC fandom, one ask at a time.  Please, I beg you, reach out to someone, ANYONE and tell them how wonderful they are.  

We are all fighting a losing battle and sometimes that little push an ask can bring is enough to help someone through a terrible time.

What I posted earlier was true, I love this fandom and every person in it.  I just wish I saw more love for each other on my dash than hate.

^Agreed.

^YES.

Very sad that vc-anon-fairy got hate. PEOPLE. Our fandom is small enough and has been through enough crap (at the hands of our own creator!) that we don’t need to do it to ourselves.

So you want to warn people that there are toxic people out there, and not to interact with them. Okay. The message has come across, and we’re all en garde now. I mean that sincerely. I’ve learned my lesson about making friends online… In real life I try to be the better version of myself, the cheerleader, the friend to many, that I am online, and I’m not there yet. 

Tumblr is big enough for all the RPers to have fun out here. If you don’t want to interact with another RPer, that is absolutely fine. Unfollow them, block them, don’t check out their blog, live, and let live. 

Lestat, any thoughts on this?
