Of late, in visiting other boards which I do at times (not often), I have become more and more aware and disturbed by all the negativity, hate, bashing of actors and characters, writers, stories, etc. Not a single actor or character seems immune to the extremely harsh comments. Whether talking of present day, or future, just nothing positive. Any spoilers are met with derision, storylines are ridiculed, well, you get the idea.
I am so happy, grateful, for the considerate, positive, respectful way you all post. Sure, we are unhappy with certain items.........whether an actor, character, story. But the displeasure is expressed politely, respectfully, actually, pretty carefully. Sure we bash a character.........not an actor. Tho we certainly note when an actor doesn't seem to be living up to potential. Or a storyline. We have dealt with frequent changeovers in writers, again, sometimes happy, sometimes not so much. We have noted how some characters are over exposed, others under utilized.
So, in my rather awkward manner, I am trying to tell you ALL how proud I am of you, as YOU have made this board what it is, made it a safe place to post, whether for or against whatever, you are fun, humorous, intelligent, aware, considerate, thoughtful, helpful, understanding, willing to express your ideas, debate pros and cons, and always respectful.......not only of each other, but of the show we all love. Sure, we find fault, are not happy with the way something may be going, but we love this show. Hey we love family, but don't we find fault or get upset with some things they do. Whether spouses, siblings, parents, relatives.
Again, thank every single one of you, and THANK YOU to Days of Our Lives, which has brought us together here, and made friends of us all.
So, my Spectator friends.......thank you, THANK YOU so very much, for all you do, for being here, for being who you are, for making the Spectator what it is. So much better than what I have seen elsewhere. God Bless you All. Bless your hearts,
