Hyde says XP to all the sucky people

[gnutmeg]

Yo. When did the L'Arc~en~Ciel and Hyde fandoms explode and why did they only attract idiots? They're starting to look scarily like the Gackt fandom... (not that all Gackt fans are idiots, I know quite a few great ones, but there are a lot you must admit) ...I'm not even going to start on the gakuhai fandom.

You know, it's probably my fault. Two Hyde fans starting the gakuhai community... yeah... far too influential for our own good, I fear.


I have to say, I'm glad to hear that larcenciel has instituted new rules similar to those we've had at gxh for a while. Almost makes a girl want to go back to the community. Now if only _hydeist were to install such rules. But, alas, the mods there are still fairly new to the fandom. And started as Gackt fans. Suddenly everything is crystal clear.

What I really want to know is why the "Hyde" community is dedicated to primarily Laruku and gakuhai? I mean... shouldn't it be about Hyde's solo career? There's already much better and older communities for the other two.


Just a thought. If I've offended anyone. Well. Tough. Get a thicker skin.

I was a Gackt fan to start with :P Gackt was one of my first tastes of Japanese music and I fell in love as soon as I heard. I'm a huge Gackt fangirl, really, but oddly enough I don't scream and flail about him the way I do about the Laruku boys. Maybe it's because it's an over four years long love affair, and Laruku are new additions to my life. I don't know.

But yeah. I'm so sick and tired of the comms and the "OMG THEY ARE SO HOTTT TOGETHER IM LYK THEIR BIGGEST FAN & *insert random crap that no-one gives a fucking damn about here*" or the "OMG I HAVE LOOKED EVERYWHERE & LYK I TOTALLY CAN'T FIND LYRICS 4 ORANGE NO TIEYO" and it's like -___- it's not that hard, since in about 2 seconds flat I found minako's senshigakuen site, with every single Gackt song romanised and translated -____- Granted, Hyde's songs proved a little harder, but sheesh it's not that hard.

I also can't stand the people who get into the music just because the guy/people are hot. Shallow, much? Sure, visual is a part of the music in many cases, but music is still music and you need to be able to enjoy that music even when the visual is taken away, or even when the visual is completely unappealing. *sigh*. Why do people have to be so shallow?

I don't even bother reading the comms these days. I glance over to see if anyone with more than 2 brain cells has posted anything, and then that it's. Half the time I don't even bother reading the fanfics because they're so pathetic, unimaginative and badly written that I don't know a word to use to describe them.

As for the Hyde comm not being primarily about his solo work ... I find that incredibly odd. I would have thought that they would have been focusing on his solo work and acting like Laruku didn't exist. Now I'm sitting here scratching my head (literally, actually, since my head is itchy XD) and wondering why that is. Maybe it's because Hyde info is harder to find than Laruku info?

... it hurts saying that since it's not hard at all -___-

My conclusion is that most people in any of the fandoms need to be gassed.

Regarding Hyde info and lyrics being hard to find... well, I don't claim to have one of the largest Hyde solo sites on the net for no reason, you know. :P The Hyde community was started by three individuals, of which two I know as a fact are little better than drooling shriekers more than half the time.

The problem is people don't know how to do things like, you know, use google, and expect people like yours truly to do it all for them.

And I'm not even going to touch the shallow comment. There's nothing to add.


BTW, I did say that not all Gackt fans were idiots, just many.

Oh I know you said not all. But yeah, there are many. Way too many.

And *nods* lyrics aren't hard to find, at all. I had no trouble, and I have the lyrics for all of Hyde's stuff, and romaji for all of Laruku's songs, translations for most, and both for Gackt's. None of it involved much searching. People are just so stupid.

I resent it when people ask me to walk them through things that I've had to find out for myself.
