People!Fandom people!:D We're insane aren't we *l*?After what I said about chat yesterday-it turned out that it was still alive after I went back home in the evening the next day,so I dived back in for another 6 or 7 hours.When I left it was its 44th hour I think and I am curious-how much longer did you few enthusiasts make it?*g* Also-I actually added people to the flist!I had very little time that last year so I almost never added people first,just because I often don't have time to comment.But now it's summer break,so-welcome new friends :))
Heh,I feel like I should be watching things on a small window while typing now *l*.


ETA: Um...also?I mentioned in chat a couple of times that I'd recently stumbled upon HP fics(or ok,I actually felt pretty disappointed with the ending of the last book and wanted something else HP-related...that turned out to be a loong night *lol*) and I've actually become a fan and it's weird cause I didn't expect the quality fics*l*.Anyway,both times word came to that I got the 'HP fandom is scary!' comments %).I've no intention of being a part of it,I'm in for the fic only...but what?Do they fight a lot or what?*l*

Mood: Crazy

Yay, new friends. *g*

I left right after you did, so I'm not sure how much longer it went on. Long enough to be firmly on the crazy side of things, I'm sure. ;)

Oh man, fighting a lot doesn't even begin to cover it. They fight about everything and anything: character hate, shipping wars, ad hominem attacks. Sometimes I think all the insane people in the world are part of HP fandom, and they're all very vocal. I wouldn't let it scare you off, though. It can be amusing if you're just watching from the fringes. I've been lurking for about three years now, and nothing bad has happened to me. Besides, there really is some very good fic out there. You have to dig a little (and abandon all hope at fanfiction.net), but it's there.
