Thanks romance.
In regards to reading a page of a novel and assuming it's a bad book. Well, speaking of a novel that strategize to "sell", it should really take hold of the audience on the first page. And it if doesn't, it doesn't necessarily mean that it's a bad book, but it's definitely not a GREAT book. |

You obviously aren't a literature major.

I never understood the appeal of Silas Marner, that crap fest sends me into a coma from the first page. They call it literature, though.

Oh please, Silas Marner is a poor example of good literature. English teachers, Lit. majors, Lit. professors with PhDs, and graduate teaching assistants at prestigious universities all despise Silas Marner. Not a single literature-related person likes it. This is a well-documented fact. It is a snooze-fest.
Uhm...I'm sorry to bring this off-topic even more. What was the concern or complaint again? Johnny Tremain? It's not like Marner; once you get past the first 50 pages it really picks up...

Something else that might affect interest is when someone came into the Breeniverse.
I came into it 2 weeks before it came out that she was fake, so I was reading people's comments on "Is she real?" "Is she fake" and all the sluething going on to prove it one way or the other, so I was really intrigued.
If you come into it now, it may not have the same appeal. That might be a good poll question! "When did you become interested in LG15?"

This is a very good point. I think there are two groups of fans, those who came in "before the reveal" and those that were introduced to it by the reveal/those who came in via CiW and OpAphid.
Notice how the CiW and Op people for the most part only watch LG to find OpA clues (the majority of CiW people were ESPECIALLY notorious for basically having no regard for LG videos at all except for trying to find clues within them). Getting into the series itself had probably already passed them by, but they were in on the ground floor with CiW/Op so they have always been into that and merely LG by association.
We really don't see many people getting into it now, perhaps the storyline has already progressed too far for many people to pick up interest now.

Actually, I came in back in July. I started out watching Bree and her little VLogs. Then, I discovered CiW, and OpAphid after I decided that second life was stupid. I stopped watching LG15 for LG15 and started watching LG15 for Op because I got bored with the story line. or something like that. I think people should just be happy that everyone watches it, regardless of why

It may be true that it's hard to get into the story now. But I've noticed many more new users to the forum lately than usual. So maybe that's saying there are some new fans...

Has anyone noticed that the number of posts never changes on corpses summary info in the left hand column?
Rather odd
Furthermore, it seems obvious he or she is simply baiting all those here.
Peculiar.
