Check out what PriceOfMagic posted in “Tamara…we all knew she was trouble!” Thread.
.
Realistically, Tamara would not win against Rumple. He’s too powerful. The moment she gets her taser out, he would only have to freeze her like he taught Regina to do to the unicorn in the Doctor. What I could see happening is if Tamara tries to go for Rumple, Rumple would freeze her, then Bae would walk in and Tamara would play the helpless victim card. Bae would believe her because Rumple had a tendency to do horrible things to people such as snail guy.That would be soooo agonizingly sad but I wouldn’t put it past Tamara! Idk if it would be the game changer but we might see this sometime. Oh man. Agonizing!

As for posting, it depends on how much original content I’m putting forth, but also on how interested I am in being able to find responses to my postings. If responses are important to me, I’d rather contribute to a short-lived thread that has just a few pages, instead of to one of the perpetual threads.
That’s a good point, Gaultheria. I would definitely want to know ASAP if someone had a breakthrough theory about something we’d all been discussing for weeks. I think this has been pretty well done and is not part of the problem as most “regulars” I think do a pretty good job of filtering and self-regulating. As was said above, I think the biggest influx of true duplicates are the influx of people joining right after episodes and are so excited they just post away. Normally true duplicates get pushed down like you said, but I think on Sundays-Mondays the influx is so much that everyone is commenting everywhere and ahhh! Lol. It gets a bit crazy. Like it is now. I think the more threads generalizing about Tamara’s identity, the easier it is to miss a really good new theory. New topic for a brand spanking new theory is one thing which like I said “regulars’ seem to do well with. But if there are so many threads on general Tamara theories its easier to miss the actual new ones in the midst of the same people posting the same theory in a different thread titled just a little differently.
The tazer thing was great and different. And props to slurpeez for creating an updated generalizing thread.Keeper Nealfire's/Bae's scarf, Henry and Neal's bribery ice cream sundae, Baelfire's sword, the coconut map, and more.

Major ouch, guys. Like major.
A predictable outcome if the audience doesn’t feel satisfied or wanted. I mean look at the fans of Captain Hook. They’ve been begging for something to cheer them up and tide them over for weeks, and are just being ignored. Just some little bit of information about Hook, maybe an article about Colin filming….something! I think interviews with Colin O’Donoghue about Hook would in itself, be helpful because it keeps the proverbial blood flowing. They’ve gotten nothing, and so nothing is flowing, things have grown stagnant, and now deterioration has set in. Last night, a favorite character (adult August) was eliminated. Fans were upset, but I wonder how many nerves would have been settled if Bailey had done an interview released after the show, about why he left Once, and about his feelings on August’s story? That’s an untapped resource the show’s powers-that-be didn’t recognize because the foundation of such a need (the fans) has already been arrogantly dismissed as being only a secondary priority.
The writers have an “it’s my party” attitude, and so fans don’t feel respected, wanted, or even needed. Fans want to see this show succeed. We are hungry for information and plot criteria to stay excited and interested in OUAT, but how can that happen if we aren’t getting anything?
Why should we even expect anything? Any set pics? Any instant interviews?
Before the internet, people were content to watch. And follow then actual storyline. K&H started writing this ten years ago. It amazed me that people were complaining about Hook not being in S,B, And T because they knew about his leg injury and obviously it wasn’t better by then. They said at Paleyfest they had to rearrange some Hook stuff. IMO he would have been on again immediately but he broke his leg.
Do people understand they film these EPs months in advance? He’s not in it because this is around the time his leg was still injured and healing.To me, Paleyfest was HUGE for the season and enough. Sure it was released early on, but so what? They gave so much info about every ep left in the season. So, if fans are waiting for info about the rest of the season, to get excited, consider Paleyfest that gift. Of course I want more. But I don’t expect it or feel entitled. I’m already excited because I love this show
They don’t owe us anything. They are blessing us with this story they’ve created. If it weren’t for the internet, people wouldn’t even demand more info. The whole point to the show is to watch the show. I love spoilers just as much as everyone else on here, but to say lack of spoilers is damaging and threatening the show… that’s innaccurate.
This is K& H. Their spirit and heart reminds me of Walt Disney. He was a dreamer. And he shared his dreams with the world. Just because we can write our opinions constantly on the internet doesn’t give us right to demand anything. I think they know about their fandom, I think they know about ratings, and I KNOW they understand the sillyness of Nielson. This show is creating so much buzz. And the normal everyday person who watches, I.e. the majority, don’t get on boards. Don’t watch spoilers. Don’t watch interviews. They enjoy the story and are enjoying their story.
Saying fans are being disrespected etc is like going into Olive Garden, sitting down to a meal, and demanding they change their entire recipes/menus and replace it will your personal recipes and then calling it disrespect when they don’t. They have been in the restaurant business for years. You came to them to eat.If you expected to eat your own recipes, cook at home. Or write fan fic.
I for one love their story and have the utmost faith. They’ll be back. No worries! 🙂 IDK, Maybe I’m just too optimistic! Lol

Hey! We are discussing Tamara theories over here in this thread pretty extensively. I suggest you copy your theory there and join the conversation. Lots of cool theories being thrown around! 🙂

P.S. I do understand, like with Tamara, starting a new thread in a new ep because of the 20+ pages of old theories. Now we know who she is, so its a whole new ballgame. One new thread though, not like. 10 😆 😆

I always try to point people to a conversation already jn progress in the most polite way, but it looks like something else needs to happen or be done. What else can be done except reading the guidelines when they first arrive..? They’re pretty clear, if I remember correctly, about keeping things tidy. I guess people get so excited and caught up they head straight to posting and perhaps don’t catch the guidelines at first.

Welcome “neighbor”! (I’m from East Tennessee).
Hope you enjoy the forums, IMO this is the best OUAT fan forum, in both intelligence and kindness. 🙂Keeper Nealfire's/Bae's scarf, Henry and Neal's bribery ice cream sundae, Baelfire's sword, the coconut map, and more.
Me too, Spyglass! Never thought I’d be saying that !

I want to revisit the pictures from Greg’s phone in the midst of all this mess. Maybe we can get some clues now that we are looking at it with fresh eyes.
