That is all I have to say for now.

Honest question: what made you think the accusations were directed at you? I agree, you're always one of the first to stand up for characters.

All of those things are things people have said about these characters. None of the people who said them were you, Tova. As far as I'm concerned you're absolutely golden. Consistently one of the most respectful people I talk to in these forums. I definitely wasn't accusing you of anything. You were actually the person I was thinking of most when I said it was good to talk about character's behavior.

An excellent guess, but wrong I'm afraid. I have never been to prison. That was a friend of mine.

Sorry...I won't bother posting again.

It's a ... a sort of a 'minor faux pas' hereabouts, not a reason for us to break out the pitchforks and start coming after you.
As Thrillo hinted at, the forum's formatting options are 'a bit 90s' and take a little getting used to, but it's nevertheless possible to achieve a posting style and layout that's easy on they eyes of your fellow forumites. Rookie mistakes are expected, making an effort is more than enough to earn our gratitude and goodwill.

It is unfortunate that this is your response to spin's advice; posting multiple times in a row is generally discouraged on here, but there are functionalities that would let you insert quotes from multiple other posts without having to reply and come back out again. I'd be happy to send you PMs to point out where these are if that helps.
As for the thread at hand, wow there is some real Faye loathing in here. These WCDTs have, as alluded to above, become quite a Faye dogpile of late, and I have to say I'm finding the level of vitriol toward her a bit alarming, if not concerning. This isn't as a mod, by the way. Just as a human.
I do want to zero in on one particular thing, mind.

--- End quote ---
Being that she received virtually no consequences for her actions (and what she did get was not even close to what she dished out) for when she was acting like a mean, nasty bully I'd be happy not to see it again.
There was never anything funny or amusing about Faye then and this, along with the objectification from a few comics ago, really makes me want to see Fayes shop crash and burn

What exactly do you feel Faye should have 'got' as recompense for what she 'dished out'?

Sorry, I don't do well with unwritten rules. My posting skills are terrible so any attempts at multiple quotes gets jumbled. It's why i never link and I why i never use html. Again, sorry for posting.

Please don't feel sorry for posting. As Case said, no-one is breaking out the torches and pitchforks to run you out of town.
--- Quote from: Dandi Andi on 14 Dec 2020, 15:53 ---I do sometimes wonder what it must be like to read this forum as someone who actually relates at all with these characters. How does it affect someone to feel empathy for these people and then come to the forums and read what people are saying about them?

This is a truly excellent post, and I bow in respect to your eloquence (honestly not being sarcastic here, I am in awe of people who can write down their thoughts so clearly and concisely. When I try, it tends to end up as a mangled mess).
I agree with regards to treating to QC characters as 'real' people. Just because they're cartoon characters, doesn't mean that real people do not relate to them. Comics are an art form, and art tends to imitate life. It's always something to keep in mind when commenting on cartoon behavior.
