User blog:TheUltraCube6723/My opinion on this fandom

My opinion is (Probably going to get banned from this wikia because of strong language, or wikia as a whole for saying this, or probably even scolded. But go down in a blaze of glory as the saying goes. I'm going to be as transparent as possible by voicing my honest opinion on this community.)

WHAT IN THE ACTUAL

Pleae note that this post is a rant about the shipper/cringey side of this fandom. However, some of the points I will bring up can apply to this entire community.

I've seen many communities make cringeworthy ships, How To Train Your Dragon as an example, but incest is a new low. Shippers and fetish-people are not a rarity in most communities, but I've never seen this at such an extent in any community aside from (what I heard) is the darker sides of Deviantart and Tumblr.

For instance, just search Ronnie Anne on google, go ahead. So far looking good, official images, good fanart, etc. And then.. OH GOD WHY, PUT AWAY THOSE TITS, PUT AWAY THAT BELLY! STOP BEING IN THAT BIKINI. SHE'S ONLY 11/12!

And then as comparison, search 'Astrid How to train your dragon' (A female character from the 2010 animated film franchise How to train your dragon; as well as the protagonist's main love interest) Scroll down, a few cringey things here and there. But aside from that, many official pictures from the film, merchandise, good cosplays from people of all ages, ranging from young girls to adults. As well as quality fan-art.

I get that HTTYD looks better because it has a far larger comminity, and as a result a larger demographic. But eitherway the content produced by that community is substantially more tame and appropriate.

But all communities have a good side too, even this one, casual discussions about the episodes are always nice. It's the result of many different demographics with different tastes. But this community is the least "tame" I've ever been in, by far, nothing comes close. Finding somebody who doesn't get his gherkin in a twist over Leni, or write cringeworthy fanfictions, is very rare here. In most of the fandoms I've been in, "tame" fans are the rule, rather than the exception.

I'd be more than willing to add some trivia facts to pages, as I really enjoy this cartoon, but when I get reminded of what part of the community I might be contributing to, I become hesitant. I feel like this WIKIA drastically needs to raise its quality standards, not with articles as much as with the comments, profile pages, and the people as a whole. Believe me, I wrote for many Wikia's, so I know how to differentiate between quality and mediocre. This wikia is okay, somewhere in the middle.

In short. TLH Fandom, get your s%#t together, please. It's an extremely unenjoyable experience to be here, and there are very few people who don't do these 'things'. If you succeed in catering towards a larger audience, you might get yourself some pretty great writers, not including me, but that's for you to judge.

This community has the foundation of a good fandom, but the shippers, bad fanfiction writers, extreme Leni fetish people, and the F#%^*KING INCEST SHIPPERS make some very crude-looking bricks.

I want to help this community become better, because I know it can. I want it to become completely separate from the horror that is the deviantart fandom, while in it's current state it's in the middle. And I want you to understand that this post's intention is to upstart discussion, as well as help from you to validate my claims, otherwise it would seem like I'm mindlessly nitpicking and ranting.

And please, do not argue aggressively about this, keep discussion civil.
