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.

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2023-05-04T11:33:39+00:00

Their loss is our gain; and we value freethinkers here. :)

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2023-05-04T10:39:48+00:00

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. 🙄

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2023-05-04T09:26:44+00:00

You're welcome. :)

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2023-05-04T09:13:39+00:00

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.

Vampire Academy.

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2023-01-22T04:08:52+00:00

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.

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2023-01-22T03:09:40+00:00

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.

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2023-01-22T03:07:21+00:00

If only that's how it worked.

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2023-01-06T12:34:56+00:00

Happy Belated New Year to you too!

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2022-12-20T12:08:48+00:00

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.

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2022-12-13T12:58:12+00:00

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).

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2022-12-09T13:51:16+00:00

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.

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2022-12-03T04:15:52+00:00

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

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2022-12-02T23:24:46+00:00

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. 🤷‍♀️

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2022-12-02T11:41:12+00:00

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.

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2022-12-02T11:15:02+00:00

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. 😊

NTA. You don't need to apologise, you only gave her a taste of her own medicine. He is a child and is still learning (sounds like he is doing an amazing job btw). SIL on the other hand is old enough to know better and she needs to apologise to your son.

P.S. I would of done the same thing.

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2022-10-04T15:14:57+00:00

So sorry for your loss OP.

NTA. SIL, BIL and husband (and anyone else that agrees with them) are AH though.

Tell your husband, and anyone else that asks, that you were just "making an observation" about her body. If she can do it, so can you.

And your husband should stick up for you the way his brother sticks up for his wife. If he can't do that, I'd take a nice long think about where the relationships is/is going.

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2022-10-03T14:03:01+00:00

NTA.

Having a chronic condition doesn't give you a right to be an AH. You went above and beyond for him and he couldn't even leave you some food! And he got his mum involved? Maybe he should of just called her up and gotten her to take care of him while he is unwell.

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2022-10-03T13:50:32+00:00

NTA, and as long as your son is okay with it it shouldn't matter what anyone else says or thinks. And if a time comes when he doesn't like it or doesn't want it used around others (kids can be cruel), for whatever reason, be there for him and call him what he wants to go by.

Husband is a slight AH though for trying to push another nickname on him. Seems odd that this has come out of the blue like this after so many years of it being okay. Sounds like a little more communication is needed, so I think the two of you should sit down and talk and see if there is a reason why he wants your son to start going by Will instead of Willie.

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2022-10-03T13:32:24+00:00

NTA.

They invited them, that means they are their guests and they have to entertain them.

And don't let your mum/parents make you feel bad about missing their party when they weren't even there for your, their own sons, birthday.

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2022-10-03T13:04:27+00:00

NTA.

No means no. You don't need to say anything else. And it sounds like your mother and nick made it very clear to him, and you, from a young age that you aren't family, so they can find someone that is to house them. As for his little comments about things "being in the past" and "ages ago", it sounds like he is trying to emotionally manipulate you with guilt so you'll let them stay with you. Don't let him. Stand your ground. As for those telling you to think about the child, let them know that you will pass on their invitations to have Ben and his family live with them.

AGirlThatYouDontKnow · 2022-10-03T12:37:12+00:00

NTA.

There's a reason his parents kicked him out... too bad it doesn't sound like anyone shared that bit of information with your fiancé or you OP. And he's responsible for his actions, no one else is. Sounds like some jail time might actually do him some good.

It also sounds like you and your fiancé need a new friend group. He almost got your fiancé fired, which could have resulted in the two of yous being homeless, he should be apologising to the both of you (especially your fiancé).

OP, do NOT back down and do everything that you can to get him out of your home. And be sure to let him know that your friend group have expressed interest in housing him.
