She's always over the top no matter if it's with her disgusting crying or closing her eyes trying to be evil. GHAAA it makes me sick just thinking about it. |

Really? Cause I think she has gotten worse each year this decade (of course she has always been bad but it never gets better over the years). |

As much as I like to rag on AS, she's always been sweet and nice to me. I like her actually. Hate Sami and her story now, though. |

I understand it's hard for some fan bases to accept that not all boards are like Sonys where you can have threads with "no bashing" in the title. |

Yes, this board is different. There isn't any explicit "no bashing" threads. There is just the general rule of no bashing the favorites and extreme bashing of the unliked. For example, bashing Ali Sweeney and everything about her is more than welcomed, encouraged and congratulated. Bash Ari Zucker and you are called venomous and whiny. |

If anyone on this forum calls you (or anyone else) whiny, report the post and it will be taken care of. We don't tolerate poster bashing or namecalling. I understand that we're all passionate about our favorites and sometimes it's easy to take the low road, but we try to discourage that here as much as possible. We can't help it if there are alot of Ari Z. fans here, or if there's alot of people who dislike Alison Sweeney. We can, however, help to make sure that all posters are treated respectfully. |

OK, that's just a load of bull. No one "encourages" or "congratulates" bashing of ANY actor, here. |

That's not my point here, Kenny. Anyone can call me what they want, I'm a big girl. My point is that you can only bash certain characters/actors. And again, it's not because it is directly expressed in the rules or written down anywhere. It is just the general atmosphere here. I think I will take the advice of one of the previous posts and just stop posting. |

Says who? You most certainly are allowed to express your dislike of any actors. You said yourself that there's nothing in the rules which states who you can and can't bash or love. I've also just explained that poster bashing isn't allowed here, so it's not as if you're going to be completely disrespected for sharing your opinions. So... what is it? Do you really feel as if you're "not allowed" to have an opinion, or do you just not like that your opinion isn't agreed with by the majority? Because that's what it sounds like to me. I think what you're trying to say is that you're uncomfortable expressing some of your opinions because you feel like you're in the minority. However, just because people may disagree with your thoughts or opinions doesn't mean you should keep from expressing them. We're all entitled to express our opinions here, no matter how popular or unpopular those opinions may be. You just have to be open enough to absorb the feedback you'll be given -- and again, no feedback will include poster bashing or else the post will be removed and the member warned, so long as it's reported. I feel as if some people have misinterpreted our forum as a soap opera fanbase wrestling rink, inviting all their fanatic/hater friends over from NBC/SoapCity to join in on the battles. That's not what we're here for. This board was never intended to be one giant "Love or Hate" battleground for the fanbases to stick it to each other. We should all be mature enough to rise above that, and that's all I ever try to encourage. |

I agree. Frankly, I'm sick of people coming on here and moaning about those of us here at the DR who don't love Alison Sweeney being a bunch of big bullies. It's childish and annoying, and I'm sick of it! Edited by Mason, Jan 9 2009, 07:41 PM.

During Aris first time on the show Nicole did alot of bad things, but I didn't see much bashing, just some that didn't like what Nicole did. You know when I started to see Ari-bashing? The minute she was paried with James Scott. |

Hi Kenny! I thought I'd throw my two cents here. For those that welcomed me so very kindly on this board ( I find this a terrific board ) you may remember my stint on Days was unfortunately a short one, due to the short stint of my Joe Penny. :frownie: :tounge: I have to say, as a VIRGIN to the show of Days and my newbie opinion, Alison's acting was, well, over the top, and very annoying in general. She is not the only actress that suffers that overacting drama queen syndrome. I've seen it on other soaps from other actresses as well. I suppose you either like it, or you don't. I don't. It takes away from the scene, imo. I am sure though that AS is an adorable person, but I was just not fond of her acting style. She needs to tone it down some, and not take "over" the scene. I observed that in my short 10 day span at Days. I'm still miffed and awed Days fired a powerhouse like Joe Penny, but soaps are just going down in my opinion anyways. LOL Miss you Kenny! |

Dear Virgin .... (wow never thought I would ever type that) Since you are a Day's viewer Virgin I hope you post alot I will love reading your perspective on the show, the characters and the acting. So many of us have biases because we have watched for so long that it will be great to see a fresh an untainted view point! |

I just wanted to give a response to those who feel like their in the minority. I think probably as an Ejami fan, my opinions on certain pairings or non-pairings may be in the minority. But I have never felt like I couldn't voice my views on this board. No, everyone may not agree with me, but that's okay. Sometimes it's good to get differing opinions........it balances everything out. I also like AS and Sami, but I can handle the fact that others do not. I like Ari and Nicole, don't like Nicole paired with EJ.........everyone doesn't agree.............again okay. I'm a member of a fan board and I love it. I can go there and find common viewpoints. But, I also like being a member here where you can voice differing opinions, and see others points or reasonings for why they feel differently than you do. I guess I've got pretty thick skin, I can handle it if you don't like my favs..........I might not like yours and I'm expecting you to handle that as well. I hope that those of you who feel like your in the minority won't leave.........we need all the differing opinions.............it's what makes the world go round!! |

Nelson perhaps you should do an indepth interview with Ali .... I really like your indepth interviews. I for one would like to see an AS interview that does not focus on TBL and has more focus on her DAYS character. Ali take on Sami and don't let her give you those wishy washy answers she likes to give, those PC evasive one's where people could interpret so many ways. |

I thought Joe Penny only wanted a short-term deal with Days? |
