To be honest, if I'd never put a foot on LJ, I would have believed TS was dead or at least comatose, maybe. But if anyone takes the time to investigate just for ten seconds around here, they'll see that TS is alive and kicking, oh yeah *g* And I'm glad you joined the LJ TS gang, btw *g*

I know of TS reputation of being mean, and I think it's because of the attitude of some people on some infamous MLs, which are... well, I won't start a rant here, but let's just say I'm glad I'm on LJ *g* I don't pay attention to what happens on those MLs, or if I do --to keep in touch with some of the gossips etc lol-- it's from afar, and everyone is happy that way *g* LJ is really a great environment for TS so far, and I'm having a blast *g*

And re: SG. I'm into SG, but the fandom drives me crazy and I usually keep far away from it too because the never-ending wanks every few days of the week? Gets old real quick. There're way too many hatred in that fandom - stupid and ridiculous hatred *shrug* I love it, but hey, we have to be honest, right? *g*
