Tumblr = gone

[unwritten_icons]

I deleted my fandom tumblr today, because I just had it with all the drama and disrespect people were throwing at me.

Long story short: I posted a question along the lines of "I'm not the only one who things X character is asexual, and doesn't ship him with any males in the series?" Cue shitstorm. Someone accused me of not knowing what asexual meant: "You don't really know what asexual IS, do you?" Another posted "Just a reminder, you [as in, me] ship him with a girl in the series, just in case you forgot." And when I tried to explain my opinion more thoroughly, two other people jumped on the snark and disrespect wagon.

So I'm done with tumblr. Shitty place anyway. At least on here, I can block people who are disrespectful and insulting.

I'm only on tumblr for the pics, there is really no possiblity for discussion there.

My biggest problem with it was that people would not stop attacking me. As you know, the only way to reply to a post is to reblog it, and when you do that, everyone who is following you sees the post too. So if one hater started drama, people following them would join in. And it never ended. Not even after I deleted the original post. So I had to delete my tumblr account - and you can't just delete induvidual blogs, you have to delete your whole account.

TLDR: LJ is much better for discussions.

They were reposting what you said? LOL Yeah, you can't really talk there. I'm not sure why people even try. Shitty of them.

Well I'm sorry, I guess. You could always turn off ASK or just not give a shit. I've gotten a lot worse on here.

That's only an example of the crap that's been spewed my way on there. I've been called everything from hypocrite to ignorant to homophobic. What got me most was that, while I don't mind people respectfully disagreeing with me, none of the people on tumblr do that, at least not the ones I've met. They all seem to fall back on insults and snark.

And lol no one ever submitted asks anyway. This was all said via posts.
