(To add onto the post I just reblogged before this. Go read that 1st)

If you are still in the camp of “something still could happen! Don’t lose hope!” I’m talking directly to you all. If you are in the headspace that hearing anything about M*fftiss makes you angry and hateful, I’m talking to you. If you go out on the internet to discuss how Amanda is an awful person in someway, talk about how Ben’s family isn’t real or anything about the personal lives of the cast/crew, I’m talking to you.

If BBC Sherlock only makes you angry, and you’ve done all you can think of to try and love it in any way again, it’s time to take a step back and reassess.(Whether that be taking a break from Tumblr, blocking people or deactivating for a bit). It’s one thing to criticize TPTB. But hateful things need to stop. I know I may have toed that line in one post or two out of anger, it happens. It’s up to you to decide if you need a break or you need to leave fandom for a bit/or a long while.

And I’m being completely, 100% serious that if you are bashing Ben, Amanda or anyone else in the way that has been going on please go seek help. Go talk to someone, because those actions are really not okay at this point. Concerning posts still cross my dash, even one is too many.

Speaking generally about all the above: if you aren’t having fun anymore, being in the fandom right now might be dragging you down and you may be unaware of it. Constant rage and anger can hurt your life outside of the Internet.

Even if you think you’re 100% good, and you may be, take a second to look how you’ve been acting towards the show, the creators, other fans, etc. That’s all I ask of you.
