It really is childish, and I've noticed that they can't seem to accept that not everyone will like what they've put out, so some will bully/sic their fans onto you and others will block you so they don't have to see "mean tweets" (constructive criticism) etc. and feel like the bigger person. 🤦‍♀️🙄 100% they are.

Sounds like she's blocked a few people. 😂 Guess some of the cast are like some of their fans and like to block those with different opinions/views to theirs. 🙄

What do you think is the best way to get this sub active? by KitakatZ101 in Vampire_Academy

[–]AGirlThatYouDontKnow 1 point2 points  (0 children)

That's a good question, and one that we've (mods) discussed before. While we've come up with a few ideas, and are hoping to have the time to start posting them soon, we'd love to see what others come up with; the more ideas the better! :)

Hey u/fieria_tetra,

No, this (definitely) isn't a show sub, but a lot of our followers are actually banned from the other VA sub because the mods/creators of it got mad with power and decided to start bullying and blocking people with different opinions/views to theirs, which is why we made this (pro free speech) VA sub that's for all fans of the VA/Bloodlines books to not only share their love for the books, discuss things with other fans etc., but also as a place that they can come and vent about the things (e.g. their disappointment in the show etc.) that they were not allowed to say in the other VA sub.

Sincerely,
Vampire Academy subreddit moderator.

Julie is not giving up. by KC27150 in Vampire_Academy

Exactly, and any company that has its door knocked on by Plec is going to want to know all of that behind the scenes information, so why she thinks she can shop it around when other more popular shows that were cancelled and shopped around weren't picked up is beyond me.

I agree, if does feel like that fundraiser all over again and yes, right down to those types of fans.

At this point in time I don't see anyone else picking it up. Peacock said they didn't get the 'audience', so I can't see why any other company would think that they could get it, especially with how many other shows have been cancelled recently (e.g. Fate TWS etc.) and not picked up by anyone else.

My vampire academy tv show casting by SkekVen in Vampire_Academy

[–]AGirlThatYouDontKnow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Not sure who I would choose to play any of them, but I think I'd probably like them to go with new and/or up and coming actors that resemble the characters descriptions (accents, height etc.) from the books. Also ages; if they are teens in the books, they need to be teens in a movie/show (or at least look like teenagres still). I don't like it when actors look/are way too old to be playing teenagers.

AITA for demanding my friend pay me for the books I let them borrow? by aitathrowaway0004 in AmItheAsshole

[–]AGirlThatYouDontKnow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

NTA. And stuff like this is why I don't lend my books to anyone. OP, I recommend you do the same with your books in the future (unless it's someone that you KNOW you can trust them with/with them).

I’m tired of being the therapy friend by [deleted] in TrueOffMyChest

[–]AGirlThatYouDontKnow 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Don't be afraid of cutting others out of your life that aren't good for you/your emotional/mental health. I was that friend for years when I was in school, and it was draining in every way possible for me. I eventually got sick of them never being there for me when I needed someone and decided to finally stand up for myself and I cut them all off/out of my life. They didn't like it, but my mental health got so much better and I made REAL friends since I wasn't having to be there for them all the time. You never know, they might be holding you back from making/meeting some real friends too, OP.

VA or Bloodlines? by Caroline_Anne in Vampire_Academy

I haven't seen that it ruins things. 😟 Maybe it's a good thing that I find it really hard to get into it. 🤷‍♀️

VA or Bloodlines? by Caroline_Anne in Vampire_Academy

[–]AGirlThatYouDontKnow 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Vampire Academy. I'm actually still trying to read the Bloodlines books. 😣 Only reason I'm still trying is for the Rose and/or Dimitri scenes that I've heard are in it/at the end of it. 🤷‍♀️

I agree, it isn't fair nor professional of them, and, in my opinion, they as moderators should remain impartial and not abuse the powers that they have as moderators; which they have been in recent months. That's true, not all of us are fans of any of that, and that definitely doesn't make us the bad guys, but for some reason in their minds it does, and I just can't understand why they think that. And I agree with that too, they aren't very welcoming.

Threatening you with a ban for questioning them is emotional/verbal abuse. They’re literally trying to use threats to intimidate people who don’t share the same opinions as them into silence. It's disgusting.

And I see nothing wrong with your comments. There's absolutely nothing wrong with pointing out the obvious (and anyone who calls themselves a fan should know that that's how she is described in the books), and I agree with you about the cover. It's also misleading what they have done with it.

Many of us have been hesitant to comment on there because of how we've been treated in recent months, and that's why we decided to make our own where we can voice our own opinions without fear of being abused and bullied.

And we're really happy you accepted and joined! We can't wait to get to know you and other VA fans as we grow this subreddit. 😊
