That’s it. I quit. I’m done. I’m tired of this war and it’s over. This little fighter is packing her bags and going home. The fandom I once loved it turning into a war ground and I’m done with it. I will not stand and listen to any more crap from either/any side. I don’t care who you are but I won’t hear it.
Who would have though a children’t book could provoke such…idiotic messures. Hacking,flaming, stupid fights….all of it iis childish and pathetic and I’m through. I left the BTVS fandom when it became the American’s vs everyone else and now I leave Harry Potter for it being us against everyone else. It’s sad. I made a lot of good friends here…no I haven’t actually. I’m still invisible but at least here I can pretend.
I had hopped that this would be the fandom I wouldn’t leave. That I wouldn’t get sick of the way everyone treated each other but maybe I’m just sick of the whole human race right now. If this is how we act to those we like…how will we respond to those we don’t?
I will of course, continue to write fiction (bloody bunnies won’t let me drop out without those) and I will fufill my duties as an elf to HPFGU but beyond that, I’m not sure how much stomahe I can lend to doing anything else.
Well now that I’ve done my “I’m leaving bit” let me say my piece before I go. The Harry Potter fandom is filled with petty, idiotic, stuck up people who would do better standing in front of a mirror making love to themselves then to be online. It’s also filled with warm, funny, sweet and caring people whom I will cherish knowing. I will miss a great deal more of you then I wish to but the time as come for me to save my bacon before it gets fried.
So to all of those I concider a friend (I actually had a list here but I kept forgetting names to take a wild guess if you’re one), I will miss you. And who knows, I might see you again, in that far distant space known as chat.
To everyone else, go suck my big toe…and mind the polish it’s still wet.
