Ok, that's it. I'm done with the Soaps forum.

DS allows certain users to mock and bitch about others where the victims can see with no chance of reply. Threads are being overrun with utter nonsense and juvenile rubbish.

It's a shame, because there are some truly lovely people on here who I enjoy talking to, but the atmosphere is not conductive to any form of decent discussion or conversation any more.
Pandora do not let the idiots drive you out

Would you be speaking of the thread I posted about Aaron and Adam that has turned into a RobRon thread?

That and the thread that must not be named or ventured into.

Oh ok, well I'm sorry my thread turned into that, I honestly just wanted to discuss Adam and Aaron, not RobRon.

And Pandora shouldn't let that get to them, I think the RobRon stuff will die down on here once those two have reunited.

It's alright Mark, no-one is blaming you. You can make whatever threads you like.

Do you honestly belive that? I think it's just going to make it worse.

This makes me sad. I don't know why the mods just won't do anything about it! My Ignore list has got quite a bit longer recently.

I agree, almost every thread turns into the same crap. It's putting a lot of people off, I suspect.

They really are and any form of discussion on the relationship will just boil down to:

"Well they're together now so you'll just have to deal with it. lolz"

No wonder people are sticking to t'daily more and more.

Aww Pan, don't let it get to you and as Sorch says, certainly don't let it drive you away. Personally I normally just stay right away from 'that' thread where we're not allowed to say anything negative, ignorance being bliss and all that.
At least when they overflow into the main area we get to answer back if we want.

Yeah I think once they are together there will be nothing to discuss. Just out of curiosity has any other couple (on any soap) caused this much drama in the forum?

Not that I have ever seen. Regards to Emmerdale at least.

Nope, don't think so. Unusually aggressive, this group of fans. It's really boring.

I guess they are just passionate about the pairing, what about SteDan on Hollyoaks? I know they had a big following, but their pairing was a lot better than RobRon.

Mark noone has any issues with being passionate about a character let's face it we all have our favourites. However discussion is being shut down because of this. Look at you you never took offence to anyone who dislikes who you like.

Indeed.

And no matter how vociferous the Ross dissing posts became, his many fans on DS took it without great offence.

I was a huge Brendan Brady fan! I remember a bit of friction sometimes with people who got a bit sick of him, and he was a marmite character, but that's all.

Anyway, I really don't want to talk about it - I'm sick to death of it. No offence.

What's happened Pan? Is the Knobron stuff spreading like the plague on the ED threads again?

I like Robron (don't lynch me please) but I try and avoid talking about them in threads other than the one in the soap appreciation section because I respect the fact that other users like to talk about other things. It is getting out of hand and is dividing this forum in two

No one's lynching anyone! Or they shouldn't be. I know how you feel, when I was crazy about Brendan I just realised you can't foist that on people all the time or you come across like a nob. There are other things to talk about. So let's carry on doing that.
