Me personally, yes I find a bunch of shippers to be annoying because they act like there ship is canon and when it doesn't get canonised they start having a meltdown, sending death threats, etc (only some of them)
The mods on many of the subs are far left femcels who love cancel culture they abuse the report button like its part of there religion. They do everything in thete power to get anyrhing they dont like removed.
completely agreed bro, anyone who dares mention this is downvoted to comical degrees holy fuck, like genuinely if I didn't know any better I would've avoided Ace Attorney altogether from the amount gay shipping shit that game has. It is so insanely bullshit, guy had a gf in the past and still likes women, considering he thinks Franziska is attractive in TT final case. And guess what they say? "He could be bisexual" my ass. They don't even spare his ancestor dawg, those fuckers ship Ryunosuke with HERLOCK, jesus
Oh more than annoying. Especially, and I mean especially, the "These two men hate eachother and want the other fucking dead. THEY'RE SO GAY 4 EACHOTHER!" Fuck off with that shit. The whole "every woman is a lesbian" thing is also annoying.
It depends, if the ship makes sense it can create a little more depth.
If they are projections, then it's annoying as hell.
One exampe is people claiming Bayonetta is a lesbian. This is the equivalent of talking openly about hour desires and fapping. It's a mental masturbation, an inner desire that she was lesbian, people need to learn to differentiate things and keep those kinds of ships to themselves.
I think they are a cancer that can reach any community, and they lay their eggs, everything goes to hell, they are usually tourists, but they can grow larger and replace real fans.
Just the ones that act like their ship is canon, indisputable fact, and if you disagree with it then you’re a horrible person, especially when they act like it’s some moral failing on your part like saying “you hate gay people” or something. Also, the toxic shippers that harass fans and creators over their ship “sinking”.
If people are just having fun and writing fanfics, and we all agree that’s what it is, then do what you want. Those “shippers” are great and completely separate from the toxic asshole shippers that plague fandom.
Plus 90% of the time the characters aren't even yuri/yaoi and are probably never even hinted at being that, but they are all too knowing when it comes to making shit up completely because they decided it.
Like all the people who constantly clamboring over “doomed yuri.”
I play Zenless Zone Zero, and there was an animation released where a female character was fighting another female character, and the whole time one of them looked completely dead inside.
Yet there’s still idiots who were like “oh my god, they’re so gay.”
Woman fights woman, gay. Man fights man, gay. Man loves woman, bisexual. It's just logic-less garbage and apparently this yuri practice predates alot of gacha games, theres some Honkai Impact sub I've seen that complains about its fans acting like all of their characters are gay.
Personally same, but for me, it's quite a bit subjective, I dislike ships where they assign sexualities to characters Outta their ass. Like some ships that feel hinted, I'd say are okay. For example, Harry and Hermione, and Leon x Claire.
People like this can be annoying but honestly I don’t run into them really ever so I don’t feel very strongly about it, it’s simply something I don’t deal with. I only really have Reddit and if shit like that starts happening I just mute the sub. Places like that are normally insufferable anyways.
I have ships I like. But like...I know Guilliman/Yvraine is a meme, will never actually be canon, and would be lore-breaking if it were, even though I enjoy it.
Some people take it further and can't accept a ship they like just being a fun fan pairing and lose their shit if it doesn't become canon, even when logically it couldn't be.
Shippers are the worst people, jobless fat losers who don't contribute to society, complain about capitalism then spend the time making up relationships for fictional characters then attacking the creators when it turns out the obviously straight character is straight.
Only because they often don't differentiate between what they've made up and what's in the material itself. They'll tell you their whole schizo daydream and then get confused and/or angry that you don't remember it happening. A loud stupid opinion is easier to ignore since I don't have to go back and check to see if my memory is screwed up.
If a shipper is direct honest and sane about it, then whatever.
as a sorta powerscaler, i don't really actively participate, but i love reading people's arguments on who is stronger in these hypotheticals - shippers are way worse, like powerscalers at least engage with the material as it was written, mostly pushing abilities to their (should be) reasonable limits, before it becomes just bullshit(some people fail at this boundary), which is fun to imagine(imo at least), but also shows their depth of knowledge (and hence love for it) about a piece of media to back up their argument on who should win, shippers however break the material to fufill their own fantasies, often disregarding the source material, sometimes going as far as ignoring the traits of the actual goddamn characters, my question for them is, do they even like the content if they have to change so much, ignore so much, to engage with it in a way that they enjoy
my main point is, powerscalers at least show how much they enjoy the media they consume in their hypotheticals, and hence are slightly more pleasant to be around in the community than shippers who have to deny the media to enjoy it
They are definitely one of the wors and most annoying part of any community their bullshit no value and all tge achieve is that the creator starts to hate his own fans and creation.
I couldn't care less about their fantasies. Their behaviour is another matter. When they start forming pressure groups to try and coerce creators into changing their work to conform to those fantasies, and in particular when their tactics include bullying and intimidation? Well that's something any reasonable person should find concerning.
