So this could be for all the soaps or just the individual soap. Like this one hollyoaks is just for wodden actors that one really gets on my nerves I can name you many great actors on on hollyoaks or who have come from hollyoaks.

That anyone who likes Oaks is a stupid teen or that it's a second rate soap.

The ratings war, really really gets on my nerves.

Again I completely agree with this as I love hollyoaks and there's many reasons why hollyoaks doesn't get the ratings the other soaps do and that's not down to quality.

It seems we are the only ones on this forum who do Fair enough you have an opinion on the soap but don't criticise the fans who do like watching it

That when Emmerdale gets the new one soap rating of a night, like an hour special, it's because "people are hardly going to tune over from a mid-way showing" or the classic that I've seen "Emmerdale only does well when EastEnders isn't" but when EastEnders does well it's because "It's the best soap" I don't care much for ratings but that really gets my back up at times. It's never down to Emmerdale being on top because it's a well structured, entertaining show with good quality storylines and characters oh no it's just the the "farming soap" on ITV!

That some people seem to think it is impossible to be a loyal fan to more than one soap.

That just because someone doesn't like a soap that it should be axed.

People who confuse criticising a CHARACTER with criticising its ACTOR. I am on about people who go into a thread about a character and then start moaning "what if the actor sees it?" Surely people being up in arms over how a character is behaving is a job well done by the actor? Of course I don't agree with people making personal remarks about an actor, such as appearance etc.

That Hollyoaks is for teens and has crap storylines. In reality they tackle a lot of things other soaps don't and many fans are people who have been watching since their teens.

The axing of a soap gets on my nerves.. I think x should be axed.. what just because you don't like it. Why don't they stop watching that way it can be 'axed' for them and not for others.

And why Eastenders fans would be bitter now is beyond me, it's doing really well.

I hate the generalisations that it's only eastenders fans who create multiple threads when in fact all soaps have fans guilty of doing this.

I also hate comments such as Eastenders fans never criticise it, when that's all most of us did on here in 2012 and 2013.

I hate the belief that any character that used to be in a soap ages ago and now wants to return is an "icnoic" character and they should be allowed to come and go as they please.

I don't like people who create threads on the same topic over and over again, and who say the same thing in existing threads over and over again, and then moan because they don't get the response they want.

That characters should stay in a soap just because they are related to people who have been in the show in the past, that they relate to the show's history. Why is a show's history so important? History is the past; people should accept that life moves on and in this day and age it's not unusual for people to move away from the area they lived in as children (me being one of them).
