The Triumphs And Pitfalls Of Being A General Hospital Soap Fan Group Admin ......

With anything you do there are ups, downs , triumphs , down falls and pit falls with anything you do.

People take things in stride and hope things work out for the best when things don't go there way.

So I'm here to give advice as a long time GH fan who also happens to be a soap group admin.

First of all , being a soap fan is an easy job, we watch our favourite soaps every day , but with being an admin you have to be present , you have to have the passion and most of all you have to be aware that you're attitude reflects on your groups reputation.

You can not act like a tyrant, nor should you belittle the people in your group. Be aware that the people in your group are fans like you, you may not share the same love of the same character, but there is a little thing called respect and you should always give it to them and you'll get it back in return.

I'm very proud of my group General Hospital Canada/ in my group you have admins who care about the show, its actors and the fans who inhabit our group.

Fan wars within groups is so juvenile, if you don't like a certain character put your hands up and say , Oh okay you like this person , I don't but we can still talk about the show in a mature fashion.

There are fans out there and without naming names who think they are well within their rights to cuss at fans from other fan bases , and cuss out the actors on social media, I don't particularly like this behavior , so doing that in my group or if I see you doing it elsewhere and the actors recognize your name from my facebook group is a definite black mark against you.

Group admins work their asses off make posters, make videos , support the cast, and treat their members like gold and like family.

And most of all as a new member you can't come into a group and bull doze your way in demanding to be admin or acting like the owner is a bitch because you didn't get what you wanted.

Be gracious, be appreciative , and most of all show some class and respect to the admins and other members, we are all there to discuss GH , to have fun and not be subjected to verbal abuse or the ridiculous immature attitudes of people who are way too super sensitive and leave because we said something you don't like.

Speak up , we can't fix things or talk things out if you shut others out, that's what the admins are for to help you when you need it.

With that being said , happy gh watching.
