Typically, with anything I say or do , some folks either love it, they either hate it and when they do they tell me, we work out our differences and things go back to normal.
I run a General Hospital fan group, which means sometimes I can be brutally honest about things, I remember things that most people wouldn't remember, I argue points because I know the true facts, and I back them up with the video clips to prove my point.
Those in my group who know me know, I'm a brutally honest, knowledgeable, opinionated and a right good laugh when I start predicting things like a psychic would before an event happens.
With that being said , I have to say that social media can be either a blessing or a curse , no matter which way you look at it. Some people get super sensitive about things and blow stuff out of proportion when they ask others stuff and then when they get the answer they were looking for its like dangling a limb in front of a great white shark you're just asking for trouble.
If you don't want an answer you don't want to hear don't ask a question that you baited them to answer, you might not like the answer you get. And that goes for fans who tweet and message GH stars with the intention of being a nasty piece of shit with no class and backbone.
If you don't want them responding with a curt response to you're ignorant questions, are name calling them because you don't like it , you have to be more aware that familiarity breeds contempt and deal with the backlash.
Put your hands up and say oops yeah I'm sorry I said that, I meant it another way.
That's the way I would handle the situation if I was in their shoes, but strictly speaking I find some fans behavior ridiculous,
Why on earth would anyone call someone an asshole , based on what their characters on GH said or did, or told you straight up what they think of you after you were down right ignorant to them.
For the love of all that's sane and holy , Fans need to recognize that its a privilege not a right to be able to speak with , tweet or be facebook friends with those they admire on their favourite shows.
I'm dumbfounded that this behavior is continuing, how many times do GH cast members have to block people , who are probably making up fake accounts to piss them off.
My advice to the fans, show some grace, class, and dignity when speaking to the cast , the producers and the stage manager, if it wasn't for their hard work we wouldn't have a show to watch.
Back in 2017 they did a campaign about being kind, courteous , and to show acceptance of people, I guess those haters didn't take the hint because they continually behave like playground bullies ready to strike.
When a new actor or actress joins a show they have the hardest task of all replacing the previous one before them. So before saying nasty shit saying they aren't as good as the last one , or not as pretty as the last one, think about how they must feel when people are down right rude about their appearance or how they are portraying the character they are just now playing.
They even go as far as attacking their fans and why because we actually like them and tell us we must be sluts for liking them.
There is an old saying " Think before you speak,!"
They also say , those in glass houses shouldn't throw stones, that's what these haters do, they spew alot of bull crap because they can't handle the fact that there are some people who actually respect these actors and actressses.
If you don't want to stir a hornets nest don't come kicking this GH fans nest ... cause I'll give it to you with both barrels and you won't like what will come out of my mouth.
