The thoughtlessness of some fellow fandomers leaves me at a loss for words.

Hmm...I, myself haven't been commenting enough on all the fantastic Christmas fics & art. *shame* I'm guessing that's not entirely what you're talking about though. Anyway, rest assured that I will comment on as much as possible as soon as possible.

[identity profile] nicevenn.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 04:38 am (UTC)(link)
No, I'm not talking about commenting, or even anything that affects me personally. (Not very much anyway.) Don't want to get more specific though.

I still owe you charity fic... FAIL.

[identity profile] demicus.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 04:45 am (UTC)(link)
Ah, enough said. :¬)

No rush on the fic—really! Plenty of time for that later. Beautiful icon, by the way.

I could actually use a different promt. *hangs head in shame*

And thanks! [livejournal.com profile] bleedforyou1 made it for me.

May I get back to you with a prompt? I can't think of anything right now! *snore*

[identity profile] nicevenn.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 05:32 am (UTC)(link)
Of course! I won't be writing it tonight. :D

looks like you could use a hug *snuggles you*

I wonder if there's a guide to fandom etiquette or something similar? I often second guess myself if I'm doing right or wrong

[identity profile] nicevenn.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 05:15 am (UTC)(link)
Heh. In this case, it's nothing that affected me very much personally. But I'll take a hug.

I think fandom etiquette is a bit like real-life etiquette--some people have a better grasp of it than others. Or maybe they just don't care. Either way, it's nothing you did. :)

[identity profile] skriftlig.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 12:03 pm (UTC)(link)
Me too with the second guessing. And I'd love a glossary to go with that fandom guide!

Actually, no. I don't think this person, or other people who do this, mean any harm. They just probably don't realize they might be hurting people's feelings.

Heh... I can think of a few things that fit that description. Oh, fandom. But thankfully there are a lot of very nice people around as well. :)

I hope I wasn't involved in anything that could be considered rude. I know I can be a bit oblivious at times!

[identity profile] nicevenn.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 01:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Nope, not you. :)

[identity profile] emansil-08.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 07:14 am (UTC)(link)
I don't know why, but whenever i read something like this, I always wonder if it's me they're talking about. But I've not been around for a while and I don't think I forgot to thank anyone for goodies i've received.

But I know what you mean and how you feel, and I am sorry it is sometimes that way.

Happy New year to you.

[identity profile] melusinahp.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 09:30 am (UTC)(link)
And me. Vague and accusatory post is vague and accusatory.

[identity profile] nicevenn.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 01:53 pm (UTC)(link)
Yes, it's vague, but I felt the need to vent without pointing my finger at the person in question because I don't believe she intended to hurt anyone.

[identity profile] nicevenn.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 01:51 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry to have made you feel this way. It certainly wasn't anything you did!

[identity profile] nenne.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 02:56 pm (UTC)(link)
That I am happy to hear. :)

[identity profile] emansil-08.livejournal.com 2011-01-02 12:48 am (UTC)(link)
It's so strange, because we all do it, even when we know it can't possibly be us. At least I always do.

[identity profile] nicevenn.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 01:49 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry if I've made you feel that way, I assure you, it wasn't anything you did. I haven't even seen you around fandom for weeks!

[identity profile] emansil-08.livejournal.com 2011-01-02 12:49 am (UTC)(link)
See that was what was made me reply. I knew it couldn't possilby be me, yet I tried to find ways in which it could have been me, if that makes any sense. I think there's this underlying feeling of guilt and that somehow I must have done something wrong.

I have been very quiet lately. But it's nice to chat for just a moment.

[identity profile] enchanted-jae.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 07:16 am (UTC)(link)
Don't let the drama get you down.

[identity profile] nicevenn.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 01:50 pm (UTC)(link)
This time it's other people I feel sorry for. :/

[identity profile] skriftlig.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 12:02 pm (UTC)(link)
Sorry to hear this. Hope you don't let it affect you too much and um.. hope it wasn't anything that I did (or didn't do).

It sounds as though the person didn't do it intentionally, which is a comfort, but I suppose there will always be people that don't think about others before they act. I certainly know a few of them in rl.

[identity profile] nicevenn.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 01:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Noooo, it wasn't you. And no, I don't think it was intentional, just thoughtless... or maybe simply honest.

[identity profile] uniquepov.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 12:34 pm (UTC)(link)
The thoughtlessness of some fellow humans amazes me. Unfortunately, people are people, and no matter where you are, there will always be people simply concerned with their own affairs and oblivious to everyone else.

Whether the thoughtlessness is intentional or not is an entirely different story.

*snugs*

[identity profile] nicevenn.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 01:55 pm (UTC)(link)
Well said. :)

[identity profile] kayoko.livejournal.com 2010-12-31 02:34 pm (UTC)(link)
Sometimes, people are just mean!

BTW, I can't wait to see you repost your guide to the slashy dolls. I left a comment in someone's stocking, but I don't remember if you ever saw it. I could also use a reread!

*sad face*

My mom tells me this all the time-- "sometimes, people just really fail."

LOL. Hopefully you feel better soon :/ After all the hard work you do, you really deserve more!

HUG
You're a sweetpea. Anyone who makes you cry is a bully. I will bash them for you - okay, no I won't. But only because I'm a coward.
Keep in mind all the people who love you.
