Conffesions of an LTD outsider.

Greetings Lifestream. I have been lurking here for a couple of weeks. But the time has finally come for me to register.

Now as you can guess it was the LTD that eventually brought me here. But how I came to that point is a story in itself.

About three weeks ago I was getting nostalgic for my old Playstation and FF7 in particular. So I hooked it back up and decided to delve into the game online. The last time I played it I don't remember going online for anything. So needless to say this was fun for me. Re-learning tricks and reading up on the back story to refresh myself etc etc.

So I started playing again. And it was as much fun as I remember. As I was playing it came to me. I had never watched Advent Children. So one night I did. I must say I found it to be quite enjoyable. Having re-familiarized myself with the story it all made sense to me.

But something else was happening at this time. I had stumbled upon something that I was vaguely aware of. Shipping. And the related shipping wars. Well to my surprise it turns out this game that I so enjoy happens to have quite the longstanding war going on. So my curiosity peaked I let the google searching do the talking!

As it happens. One of the first sites that really catches my eyes just so happens to be the domain of a certain rabid pink faction. Unaware of this at the time I decide to look at the Advent Children essays. As I was reading them I got this funny feeling in my head. "Did I miss something when I watched the movie"? I had only watched it once so I decided to re watch the scenes in question that were being discussed in the essays.

Well as it turns out I in fact did not miss anything. What the hell were these people watching? Because it wasn't Advent Children. Having seen the face of Pink I couldn't help myself. I looked in on other pages and I sank further and further into madness/despair. It just didn't make any sense.

I finally managed to pry myself away. But my faith in humanity had been shattered. I....I had to search for answers. Call it divine intervention but the next sites I stumbled on were the Destiny Failed Blog and this site. And just like that my faith in humanity was restored.

...................

So that is my story. As an outsider who was vaguely aware of such things as shipping and love triangle debates. It took me all of about an hour of reading/watching to come to a conclusion. The Pink Nazi's are nuts. I have even been getting into arguments with them on youtube.....gah!

But hey this seems like an intersting place to hang out. So here I am.

That is a very interesting story, and welcome. There are alot of very nice Cleriths though, so I hope you can realize that as well. *Shout out to Dante and FB in particular, here.*

Sorry that you had a bad run in, though I must say that you're lucky the rabid Cloti Forums are no longer running. Those were just as bad.

Also, Welcome. <3

The entirity of the Final Fantasy VII fandom is batshit insane to be honest. It is fairly shocking. Also, hi, welcome etc

I'm sorry, but if your humanity was shattered by a "pink rabid nazi" site, how was is restored by people who have nothing better to do than make a site and continuously mock them? How is one any less lame than the other?

Welcome!

Yeah, TLS is very Cloti friendly because most of the members here are generally rational and can succeed in finding their ass with both hands. :awesome:

Glad you found us and I hope you have fun!

I am not a shipper myself. I have nothing against it. Or them. I am just to lazy for that sort of thing. If I want to insert myself in a story I will just do it in my own head. "Oh no Power Girl and She-Hulk. I couldn't possibly go another round".

probably because the latter group are at least concerned with something remotely resembling truth :monster:.

Hallo and Welcome sir.

Have you tried any of the other english available entries into the compilation just yet?

But yes, don't worry overmuch about the LTD. Much like the Ranma, Harry Potter, and Avatar fandoms the whole affair is a lot smaller and less disputed than some would like to claim.

But it is just as fun.

Heh. Thanks for the (mostly) positive feedback. :awesome:

To answer a few questions

Zee-C'mon lighten up a bit.

Ryushikaze-I haven't had a chance to play BC or DoC or hell even KH(as if that counted). But I am enjoying reading up on all the other stuff. The OTWTAS stuff and reunion files and all the other things I had no clue existed a few weeks ago.

As for the LTD issue. Well everyone needs a hobby. I frequent comic book discussions as a way to stop the spread of disinformation. Someone that is mistaken I can deal with. But willful ignorance I can't stand.

Are you kiddin' ??? KH is the reason I got into FF lolol. Without it, I'd probably be stuck with mundane stuff today :monster:
