If you believe the Doctor has lost the love of his life and could never again bond with a companion and is now the loneliest angstiest emo Time Lord in the cosmos and the show will never again be as good as it was with That One Companion, why do you continue to watch it?

I've never said he isn't going to bond again with a companion, or that he's never bonded with a companion before - unless you mean the royal 'you,' in which case I'd agree that there are some people that seem to have that mindset for whatever reason.

Following a link from [livejournal.com profile] who_daily...

And I didn't say someone following a voluntarily publicized link in a 'newsletter' is hounding anyone. I've simply cited examples of stuff I've seen happen to other folks in their personal journals.

I don't mind debate, but debate is not taking the most extreme hyperbolization of whatever the other person's said, or deliberately taking their statements out of context, and using that as a basis to start an argument.

If you don't feel like going into the debate, you're welcome to stay in your own corner of fandom where I promise not to bother you.

And by this you're well ahead of the people I was referring to, who spend a lot of time publicly attacking people who have chosen to go into 'their own corner of fandom' to avoid having abuse heaped upon them. They complain about having to hear about Rose, but then when the people who want to talk about Rose take their ball and go elsewhere to play, they then complain because the people who want to talk about Rose did feck off, versus sticking around for the bullying.
