I could understand why people on DS sometimes label Emmerdale as Aarondale or The Aaron Livesy Show.

Talk about double standards, the Knobron wankers are allowed to annoy other posters with their insipid comments, but if anyone says something against them, the posts get deleted smiley-angry smiley-angry smiley-angry smiley-angry smiley-angry smiley-angry smiley-angry smiley-angry smiley-angry smiley-angry

They want DS to be renamed "RobRonSpy".

What the hell is the matter with these people? Why the hell do they invest so much in FICTIONAL characters?!?! They need their heads looked at free-rolleye-smileys-323 I barely look at ED threads on DS now because I'm sick of the lot of them, you'd think there was no other characters on the programme. I wouldn't dare look at their appreciation thread as the temptation to type "You sad bastards, grow the feck up!" might be too much for me

I don't know why they can't just leave all that stuff for the appreciation thread and leave the other threads alone. Surely they realise they come across as knobs?

FGS we all like our favourites (the things I've done to Cain in my daydreams .... ) but it's not real life, it's a TV programme which I usually find a pleasant enough way to pass the time but no way do I get obsessed about any particular character or storyline. But I had a monumental dislike of the Jackson 'It's what he wantid' storyline and I was glad I had DS back then to vent on or I might have gone mad on the High Street foaming at the mouth screaming "FECK JACKSON AND WHAT HE WANTS" while the men in white coats dragged me off lol! Boy did I vent, the P&P thread was filled with my vitriol (and there was a lot of agreement, you yourself IIRC) but DS was a different animal back then. I can't help thinking that if that same storyline was running today some sad sack would find them oh so tragic heroes and this shipping malarky would kick off again (probably not so big as RobRon though, after all Robert is prettier than Jackson free-rolleye-smileys-323 ) with no one being able to say anything negative without someone yelling that you were an insensitive bastard, you've got no soul/heart, they're love's tragic young dream blah de blah free-rolleye-smileys-323 ... and I wouldn't have lasted 5 minutes on DS in what I'd have replied to them Thank God (well, CorrieandEmmerdaleFan lol!) for this forum!

I wouldn't dare look at their appreciation thread as the temptation to type "You sad bastards, grow the feck up!" might be too much for me As I can't currently log in, I did take a deep breath and looks at that appreciation thread, and all I can say is it's a scary, scary place . The people on there are like Cybermen, completely robotic, mindless, souless, machine like obsessed drones, devoid of any thought of anything else, programmed to fixatedly latch onto and respond solely to their objective, and to annihilate anything or anyone who doesn't think the same thing or retaliates against them. I'm not kidding, they were complaining on there that ED shows other characters/stories and that last night dared to show too much of something else meaning the poor souls only got a couple of tiny scenes instead of the entire two episodes - and no I'm not exaggerating .

It's such a shame. The daily Emmerdale threads were renowned for being a friendly place, probably the last friendly place on DS. I only posted on them a couple of times but always had a friendly enough reception.
What a pity that nice community of friends is allowed to be ruined by obsessives. Like others have said, post in an appreciation thread if your sensitive feelings can't handle someone disliking your favourite FICTIONAL character(s).

Hi daktara smiley-greet013 Tbf, the Daily is still a really nice place to be - maybe the Knobronners are wise enough not to take us lot on, so I hope you'll pop in again soon, (is your DS name the same as here?) It's the Discussion and P&P and.......well any other ED thread that have been taken over by the morons sadly.

Yes it gets worrying when people get obsessive over fictional characters such as Knobron. Someone needs to say "You do realise they are not real you know?". It will warrant a ban from the DS mods.
Also what the hell can they talk about when they always talk about Knobron? What is there to say other than "oh they kiss a lot" or "Will they get back?".
The Knobronners have invented a new religion called Knobronianity.

Oh FFS m1323 I see yet another ED thread on DS has turned into a battleground about Knobron smiley-hit Oh which one? I'll take a look. I've pretty much given up reading the Emmerdale threads as a routine because of all of this. Also, i'm tending not to see most episodes until the weekend omnibus.

There's always been fans of characters e.g. Star with Debbie Dingle. I still laugh when I see something negative written about Debbie because I'm imagining Star going 'OI!' in my head She loves Debbie but doesn't annoy anyone in her defence of the character (well, not many, I think Chita got a bit pissed off once) but also admitted when Debbie was written badly or was being an arse. That's a proper fan to me. RobRon's, as Collie alluded to further up the page, are like a brainwashed cult, a bunch of zombies. They're a completely different animal and I don't like it one bit. If I was the actors I'd be uncomfortable with it too because there's a thin line between love and hate and they could perhaps turn on one of them if their character does something on screen they don't like - or is it always excuseville with them?
