As much as of an issue it is with other fans within a fandom at times... Honmestly... You get all sorts of people. You have to learn to live and let live otherwise you don't tend to get anywhere.

The ONLY case of me leaving a fandom because of the fans, was the Mortal Kombat fandom... I got sick of someone attacking me for being British, not because they were doing it though, but because the admins weren't doing anything to stop it, even though it was both clear as day and regular. The person never flat out said they hated me, they just went on about their status as an American and ran me down as British. Of all the things I can think of, that was the lowest form of bullying to me. This is pretty much on par with white versus black level of hate, maybe even worst.

I do know how you feel as the only time I left a fandom out of pure disgust was the Dragon caves Frilled Dragon retirement and that was out of lost respect for the artist fo the dragons sprite. But bare in mind, it was her status as a DC artist and how she abused it to get her way, that made the cause so bad. But... As the wikia gets popular we end up attracting all sorts, hell by your assumption I would have left in 2010 within 6 months of being in the fandom because... You know... That period wasn't a good time to be a fan of English vocaloid... Or for the most part any vocaloid execept the CFM ones. Even some of the VO vetrans were rabid CFM fans at times, which is saying something considering some of those said fans now act as though they can't stand them.

We're basically always going to be a target for all sorts of people from kagamine hype fans who only care about the relationship of the pair to people who are anti-language and bias. Its not something we can nessecary stop nor control because, you know... "anyone can edit".

To be honest, a lot of the things I've come across being here still pales in prespective to MK and DC fandoms, so this is why I've not yet left despite swearing I would several times. The next day when I've cooled down, I realised what happened was stupid. Particularly with the MK situation, if we EVER get THAT bad that a racist/nationalist person runs roit uncontrollably without regret or remorse for their actions, and nobody clamps their remarks and behaiours... Then I'll likely leave out of disgust for everyone here for letting it go on. Because at that point, the thing vocaloid vocaloid, its point to cover different langauges, styles of music, etc, something will be dead.
