Aye but all people in HP universe seem to judge people on first sight.

 

Aye and they all suffer from head in the sand syndrome

 

Perhaps. You and I may never know who's right, nor will we likely see eye to eye on judging actions. For the record, I'm happy to be a heartless fucker.

Fanfiction is not written by Rowling, and I'm not the only one on this forum who thinks she isn't very good.

I only heard the first 4 books because I was around when my mother read them to a cousin. I never would have picked them up otherwise. And the books had much more promise before she started filling in the blanks with later books.I can hardly be blamed because of a massive drop in quality. If I can judge people by all actions, and she made two shitty books and 4 'ok' books, I would have to say overall she stinks. Is she the worst? No, but that's really not the point.

 

I can agree there is the possiblity that james WAS a bully.. but there is abso-fucking-lutely NO denying SNAPE IS a childish bigot of a bully... the guy gets his nuts off belittling and verbally harrasing CHILDREN for fucks sake...

a popular kid with four friends pick on the unpopular loser...

a gorwn fucking adult belittles and bullies CHILDREN ...

which was more mature?

the kids... because its the nature of things... if snape wasnt such a fucking dick licking cockblocker the fucker would have shown a bit of god damned backbone and fought back instead of being a coward and taking it like the bitch that he is.. thats why he takes it up the ass from voldie.. hes too afraid to do anything else... except go ot blow dumbles to get out of taking it up the ass from voldie...

 

Defending a little pussy light wizard and dissing the dark wizard who has probably just earned his place as Voldemorts most important death eater due to his brilliant act and cunning... you can't revoke my dark err... whatever it is you said. I finally get it though, you're all anti-snape because you're jealous Alan Rickman could get more young women still than any of you could. It's jealousy, thats the only explaination why you lot, all male, loathe him so because nothing in canon justifies it.

And he doesn't get his 'nuts' off 'bullying' children, hes a prick to everyone except 'his own', and he should be to keep up appearances, but you people clearly wouldn't understand that, because you think dying like a bitch like James is more respectable than surviving. No one could survive Voldemort? Funny, snapes done just that, over James, over even Dumbledore. Should change the name of these forums to 'Pussy ass Light Wizards Anonymous', between the current events threads and these threads its pretty clear few here are anything but bleeding heart neo hippies who just like playing at 'dark' because it seems cool. Snape isn't even that mean to Harry, you guys must have never met a real Bully. Ohhh, he says men things and takes points, what a fucking bully! Bullshit. If some punk ass kid like Harry was rooting around your private memories, and stealing the house cup every year in a very clear display of unfair bias from Dumbles, you'd be harder on him too. If you say otherwise, you're a fucking liar. Harry might not be the ultra golden boy trouble maker Snape calls him, he does get away with murder, and Snape has a duty as the head of a competeing house to even it out by taking extra points. Being a prick is the prerogative of any adult. Excusing James and co's idiocy as 'boys will be boys'... that just blows my mind. Ganging up on someone is the ultimate assertion of power by cowards, at least Snape can be a prick without back up. But you guys go on, worship you pansy ass dead blood traitor. He's sooo much better. :roll:

 

Comments like that absolutely destroy any semblance of credibility that your argument might have. Personally, I'm a neutral. I don't like James or Snape.

 

If you say so. There is nothing in canon that justifies Snape hate for anyone visiting a forum with the words 'Dark Lord' in it. Clearly they are jealous, thats the only explaination that makes sense, because the other explaination, not liking dar wizards period, is not applicable due to the very nature of what this forum is supposed to be. Maybe its fanon hate, but in the end, it still boils down to jealousy, because girls (mostly) love Snape.

 

I agree and disagree, to an extent. As a reader, I will always empathize with Harry's plight to a large extent. He is the main character of the series, after all. You say Snape doesn't really bully Harry that badly. That claim is complete and utter bullshit. That man has treated Harry like dirt from the very second the boy strode into Hogwarts. He constantly derides Harry's dead father, constantly singles him (and Neville) out in class, and generally goes out of his way to humiliate the boy in any way that he can. He's a sad and bitter little man who clearly lacks the ability to let go of a schoolboy grudge. Severus Snape is a bully, end of story. Whatever his motivations, the clear fact is that he mercilessly picks on children who are powerless to fight back against him and abuses his position as a Hogwarts teacher. You speak of him blatantly favoring the Slytherins in order to keep up an act. Yes, I can see that as being applicable from the point after Voldemort's ressurection. However, Snape was being a complete asshole to Harry and company long before then. As far as he knew, and he has admitted to as much in canon, Voldemort was gone for good after the events of Halloween 1981. There was no cover to keep up. You also mentioned Dumbledore's blatant favoritism regarding Harry. Snape has benefitted every bit as much from the old man's mercy, as can be seen from his being allowed to remain on as a professor despite his atrocious conduct as well as Dumbledore's general condemnation of everything that Harry and others rightfully say against the greasy bastard. And he repays that mercy by killing Albus in cold blood. I honestly fail to understand how people can defend Snape.

I'm not going to say much regarding James, as canon has told that story. He was an asshole and a schoolyard bully, plain and simple.

 

*nods* what raven and serapheth said is what i was trying to say im just not that articulate...

james was a bully more than likely but grew up.. and snape didnt... and ill make the same statement about rickman and snape that i did about watson and granger...

RICKMAN is NOT Severus Snape! I respect Rickman as an acter, i enjoy his work, even as snape, though i dislike the character of snape...

I personally think the charcter of snape could have been played off better in cannon than a childish bitter bigot.. something along the lines of a cold distant chamrer or even lucius malfoy type with less agression and more subtlety...

 

I'm not going to keep arguing with a bunch of boys over Snape. Females understand better, read it as you see fit, and whine in empathy with a goody-good Gryffindor twit if you like. Even if every bad thing said in this thread about snape was taken as truth instead of biased opinions, I would still like Snape better, and thankfully I'm only alone on that on this forum.

 

Now you're just trolling.

 

<_< he's simply out of ways to defend the guy he's obviously obsessed with

 

thats true... snape as a character has a lot of potential ... but cannon snape just blows... ive seen a few decent snapes in AUs but sadly ff.net pulled most of them ...

 

You must have a very loose definition of trolling. I'm not forcing you all to gang up and disagree with me as a team, I was just defending my opinion, and then I decided it wasn't worth it and said I was done. If you consider that trolling... that's on you.

I'm not obsessed with anything. I defend things I feel people are being unfair about. From Bush, to Emma Watson, to a million other things. Snape isn't even my favorite character.

 

While you are entitled to your own opinion, most of the stuff mentioned before is in good natured discussion, you are taking it too far by insulting the people who work their asses off to give the readers here something to post on.

Considering this your only warning you're gonna get, if you can't play nice, then bounce. Raven and Vash may of let it slide just now, but I'm not about to. Either tone the goddamned attitude back or bounce. You seem to be able to post purposefully trying to piss people off with shock value, but can't handle it when Vash is getting back at you in a similar manner you almost always post as.

Bottom line, not open for discussion, and this goes to anyone, the boards are for DISCUSSION, not insults, or petty shock value posts. It stops now. Everyone is intitled to their own opinions, but there is a correct and an incorrect way of doing it, I apologize for my less then respectful remarks.

 

*looks away guiltily* ... sorry.. i admit ot only trying to ruff the guys feathers... it was ammusing for a few mintues then it simply got annoying and before i could say anything to that degree an emergancy came up and i had to run for an hour or two... in the future i will do my admin;y duty and set a positive example for all posting citizens of our dark utopia...

 

Aye, and your adminly duty is to post more Lust of a Dark Soul. Get to it.
