If I were Colin O’Donoghue, and I came here and saw how somebody talks about a character I’ve worked so hard to make real for so many people, I think I’d feel demoralized after reading what some of the people here have to say about Hook. It goes beyond the point of being anything constructively debatable, just hostile. More than that, the amount of attacks I see here on Captain Hook are really constant. Some of the posts make it sound like he’s everything short of being compared to satan himself. With a topic called “Eww Captain Swan Shippers”, what do you think that says to fans of Captain Hook? If it was “Eww Captain Swan”, that’d be different, but the topic attacks the shippers, not the characters. There’s too much negativity about Captain Hook, and too little posts that just talk about him. I’m not saying everyone has to like him, but if you don’t, then why attack him? I’d like to see more open minds, and positive comments here. I think that would feel like a breath of fresh air to me.
Exactly. When I first saw the name of this topic I was pretty offended, and I wanted to say something but I didn’t see the point because people will come up with some ‘excuse’ for it anyway.
Gypsy- I couldn’t agree with you more. It is ok for you to dislike a character, we all have our own opinions. I just don’t think it’s ok for people to, let’s say, attack a character when they know there are fans of that character on this site. If they were more considerate about it, then I wouldn’t care., but it’s just the way they go about it is what I disagree with.
For example, I don’t particularly like Neal. I could easily make a new topic just so I can tell everyone just how much I hate him and all the bad qualities about him. I’m sure that wouldn’t go down well with the Neal fans. Do you see where I’m going with this?
All I want is for people to be civil and tell each other their opinions, whilst taking into account that some fans may be offended or upset. It’s not that hard to do.
