^Embrace: But Syo isn't active on VO? O:

However, I have observed that drama is a trait that's common everywhere a group of hardcore fans meet. The more obsessed you are with something, the more you care about it, and the more you care about something the stronger your reactions will be. So Vocaloid discussions among hardcore fans easily become heated because we become emotional more easily. Take the wikia, when you've seen a mistake 10 times it's much easier to get mad over someone making an error regarding Vocaloid. Like when someone mistakes Flower's gender, or assumes ALYS is a Vocaloid. c':

Every forum I've been to has been the hub of heated discussions in a fandom, and it's true outside the internet too. Academia has a long history of bitter fewds, fights and drama. Punches have been thrown over the classificiation of a fungus, careers destroyed research rivals. This seems absurd to someone who isn't interested in plants, but to an outsider it appears no less crazy than our arguements over Vocaloid. :D When you care about something a lot, it is a matter of maintaining a sense of perspective even when it's what you love the most.
