Hehee, one of the top One Piece fans I knew from the OnePiece fan believed all sorts of crap. And I wasn't even in the fandom for One Piece nearly as long as he was, yet I knew things. Actually it used to be funny what long-term fans came up with.

Vet fans tend to be really stubbron because what they think they know is generally cemented into their skulls. Everyone does it. I remember my first month alone, I challenged Crossfrown at VO forums old over Lola and Leon being built for soul. I never knew if the reaction was honest or not, but Cross didn't seem to have realised that they were built for soul. They were even rude to me and said "if we ever met I'll kick you in the skin" or something like that over it and something else.

With vocaloid, you can know a long of things but you can't seem to know everything. I've seen just about every fan here, youtube, the Japanese side, VO forums, make mistakes. some are honest, some are things the fan should know better then to do.

I've always said its mostly because Vocalod has no "canon" as per such. Everyone ends up getting hold of different threads of detail but no one can find the whole tapestry. The whole wikia works by different people grabbing all these loose thread and pulled them together, its as close as you can get in one place to finding the whole thing, from a overseas POV.

And the wikipedia page is yet another thing... :-/

So the trouble with Vocaloid its its nature as a franchise... Any other franchise has a common, often single thread, to tug on to find the main art. So all you have to do is say "go read chapter X... Watch episode Y... Play game Z..." and they find the answers. :-/
