I'm amazed by how some of the fans here work.
Just because J&M or Stayla have a scene you guys act like it is automatically good or somehow better. Even though especially the former couple have had some of the cringiest scenes in recent years.
Actors Like Stephen Nichols are too good to be wasted! So yes we look forward to their actually getting scenes ! As for some of the characters who have been given undue over exposure it has not helped (Deimos and his women). You know to become a loved character the characters need to be fleshed out so that we can actually care about them. Walking egos, models who are just there because of their appearance, those written in stereotypical fashion are frankly the least interesting at least to me. The unfortunate thing is too often the soap writers fall into just that trap. This isn't about acting ability.
And this isn't about which characters are more popular. I get that many of these veterans are popular and I like them as well.
But the sad reality is they are as much of a problem as any of the new characters. The same thing always happens "OMG J&M are gonna talk to Claire and Brady I'm gonna love this" and then "Wow that was boring I hated this ep womp womp".
The only thing that sets J&M, Stayla, or whatever apart from Deimos is that they were on the show longer. The writing is just as bad, the scenes are just as tiresome, and yes these veterans also phone in their performance and are inconsistent.
Another perfect example is the witch hunt the fans are doing for Hope. It's not like her writing is any worse than what the other veterans are going through. Hell it's actually better considering how stagnant the other veterans are. But since Bo is not here the fans are going in like it's the worst thing they have ever seen. Newsflash if Bo were here you guys would be bitching about the bad writing and the couple being wasted. Just like during Carly's return.
At least Hope's character is relevant and evolving. J&M are the definition of irrelevant right now. One of their longtime enemies has come back for revenge and their scenes, acting, and the writing couldn't be worse. It's a damn joke.

[twitter=TheoClaireFans/status/781613260105584640] How cute that she wants Claire's clothes. I think Martha said the exact same thing about Belle.
Paul/Gabi/Sonny/Chad- JJ is pretty much a non factor in this story, isn't he? 😐 Here's hoping the writing is good for their stories....

Please leave your posts to being about the show and not about us. Thanks. I meant no disrespect just calling out the hypocrisy and negativity constantly oozing from a lot of the people here.
Just curious do you tell people to stop when Jen Lilley for example gets personally attacked on here?

Maybe try reading the rules. If you have further questions, feel free to DM me. Otherwise, this thread is for spoiler discussion. It's not for poster discussion.

Otherwise, this thread is for spoiler discussion. It's not for poster discussion. That's a pretty terrible rule. If comments on negative poster behavior that is tame and broad isn't allowed then Jen Lilley shouldn't be called a bitch for doing her job and interacting with fans. One is looking to lighten up things the other spreads negativity. Nice rules you got there.

People disagree with you. That's not hypocritical or bad behavior. If you don't like J&M or S&K's scenes, you're welcome to say so. If you're not looking forward to their scenes, you're welcome to say so. But other people aren't going to change their opinions just because you don't agree.

But other people aren't going to change their opinions just because you don't agree. Doesn't change how inefficient said rules are. Perfect! Look forward to see me posts in the future.
The act of disagreeing is not what I originally cited as hypocritical but backward reactions to character arcs. I know I'm welcomed to say so I just did. I never at any point said I wanted to change anyone's opinions I just put mine out there.
And how is my post being summed up as just "poster discussion" when I was clearly talking about writing and characters as well. And have you stopped everybody who has talked about fans in this thread before? Or only when you don't like their opinions?
Funny though I bet if I went talking about Ejami or Rope fans I probably wouldn't be getting dislikes or much negative attention.

The part of it that was problematic was.
No worries. This won't continue to be a problem.

[twitter=camilabanus/status/782269686272577537] I wonder if the Dario/Gabi picture is about the spoiler for Gabi seeing someone she recognizes as a looteR. Or does she find out he set up her attack by that mugger (and he blamed it on her dad)?

I'm looking forward to Rafe slugging Aiden. I hope he slugs him all the way to Portland and Aiden never returns.

Got a warning for baiting because I talked shit about Ejami fans a while ago, I think the team on this board is fair. You can talk shit about the show, the characters, the actors all you want but not about others fans and posters. :)
