People bash Starfire? But..HOW? She's the sweetest thing to walk-er float about, this earth. I don't generally like character bashing anyways. Not saying of course no one can not hate or dislike a character. I only dislike it when they start drawing hateful art, starting anti character clubs, and writing them way out of character and the like in fics.

Which does in a round about way lead me to Raven. I certainly don't think she's the best character ever, but I do like her well enough. And I'll admit I do like the BB/Raven ship. Of course I'm mature and would never attack someone over not agreeing with me on that. after all, fandom is suppose to be diverse and fun. Not to mention the show isn't all about who loves who after all.

Speaking of pairings, the idea of Thunder/Starfire is adorable:) Crack pairings are fun.

I think haters bash Starfire for that exact reason: she's supposedly too sweet. She's nearly always called a "cheerleader" of the group, some have drawn pictures of Raven killing her because she's "annoying", or continuously accuse Starfire of being too stupid to realize that ROBIN AND RAVEN LOVE EACH OTHER. ugh. I don't even know. Nowadays I try to keep my mouth shut whenever I see Starfire hate, but it just gets on my nerves because she doesn't deserve half of it. :\

I don't mind anyone that likes the pairing, really. I just think I hate BB/Raven because of its lunatic fans and how viciously they attacked anyone with a differing opinion. And exactly! The show was wacky and fun, and tried to focus on all of the characters. The show isn't just about a single pairing becoming official.

Thunder/Starfire is so cute. sleepyscribbles roleplayed Thunder, and I played Starfire, and we actually got them together at an RP verse. I'll have to show you the logs sometime. She doesn't play Thunder anymore, but it was good fun while we did it. And god yes, I love crack pairings. So many opportunities than what the canon pairings can give you sometimes.

Bashing is an ugly thing. In my whole history of fandom, there are only two characters I've ever truly HATED. One deserves it as of last weeks episode. The other doesn't, but I find her annoying. I don't go around bashing the characters though. I try not to write with the second character altogether as I'm afraid I'll fall into bashing. (the two fandoms I'm mentioning by the way are " Transformers: animated *which I've heard called an Teen Titans with giant robots. Not sure I'd say that, but I can see what they mean* and "Catscratch" )

Have to love the crack pairings. Being in so many fandoms I've seen (and done) a few interesting ones, myself.

I'm the same way. There's ... a few characters I can name on my fingers that I HATE right now. (Maya from Heroes, Reira from NANA, and ... another one I can't think of at the moment.) And I'm talking about irrational hate that makes me want to punch walls every time I talk about them. Okay, not really, but I get mad. Outside of that, it takes a lot for me to grow to despise a character these days. I try to tolerate every character in a series as best as I can.

Which characters are you talking about, BTW? I don't watch Transformers: Animated but I know enough about it, and I've seen a little bit of Catscratch.

To me, I always have more fun with crack pairings. It's not that I hate the canon pairings, but sometimes I get really bored with them and want to experiment with other dynamics. Like, a long time ago, I wrote this Kyd Wykkyd/Starfire drabble. I, er, don't know if I have it anymore, but it was an interesting idea at the time. It's the multishipper in me!

For Transformers: Animated the character I hate as of now is Sentinel Prime. He pretty well told another character she shouldn't be alive because shes considered whats disgustingly disfigured to a cybertronian (she's part robot and part spider. the organic spider part is whats considered disfigured)

For Catscratch I hate Katilda. Just something about her gets on my nerves.

And nothing wrong with crack pairings at all;) Long as your having fun I say.
