User blog comment:Violet144/College English Essay questions for Seddie/Creddie fans?/@comment-3122172-20110922231606

1. Seddie. Really, part of the reason why you ship something is because of how it's portrayed, but most of the drive comes from within. It's something you are personally attracted to. You make your own connection. So, yeah. Seddie because I enjoyed the old fighting/arguments, funny moments, friendship moments, and romantic hints between them, and Seddie because pent up love/hate relationships are very much my taste and style. My reasoning for shipping Seddie also has nothing to do with Creddie whatsoever. I know some shippers just 'choose' what to ship just cause they wanna and the other ship kinda affects their choice, but nope. For me, even though find Creddie to be 100% unappealing, it has nothing to do with why I love Seddie. Shipping is just a fuzzy feeling you get inside. I compare it to falling in love. You can't help who it's with and for me it's purely, 100% Seddie :)

2. No. I don't post questions on the Creddie page, first of all. And secondly, the Seddie page is home of my second family. We're all tight there, so we can talk about anything and be comfortable. No one really attacks you unless you ship war, which I don't do.

3. Nope. That doesn't sound like me at all.

4. LOL I find that to be the most immature thing in the world! Nah, I watched iSYL with my family. I knew it was gonna be a Creddie episode and I didn't care about ratings or what not. And I still don't :) It actually tickles me when some Creddie shippers think that them not watching the episode messes with the voting xD Season 5 is doing just as well as season 3 viewership wise. These people have obviously never used wikipedia or taken a survey class. I don't do that immature chiz. If there were a Creddie episode tomorrow I'd be the first to watch it. Life is short. If you're gonna strike a dumb TV show because your favorite couple isn't gonna date, I pity you.

5. No, what I enjoy is called debating. Which is discussing with a (preferably intelligent) person of the opposite ship the factors of both relationships. I find calm, thorough debating to be fun, and not ship warring, but that depends on how you look at it, really. Some people call it "Causing fights," but I don't think so. But yep, full on insulting another ship or shouting your anti-ship opinions all over the place is something I really hate. It makes you look really foolish.

6. There are a few ways that it could start. Stupid users, overly-sensitive reactions, users who think they are proving a good point who are really just upsetting people, hate-fueled shippers, just plain having a bad day, OR it could even start by accident. There have been times when a comment wasn't intended to be ship warring, but it got numerous replies which leads to fights. Ship warring could be spread by blogs, attitudes, or even peacemakers who are trying to stop it all. Treating the issue as a big thing usually makes it grow bigger, making it harder for people to forget about it and move on. But yes, there are SO many different ways for ship warring to start I can't even list them all.

7. My number one will always be attitudes. Your attitude says a lot about you. If you're one of those always-crabby people, or if you're whiny/complaining all the time, or if you annoy a lot of people, then something's wrong. Just for me, I'm not a fan of negativity. So attitudes like, "iCarly's going downhill" and "Dan's lost his touch" are just depressing. I come to the wiki to have fun, not to get depressed. If I wanted to feel depression I would go read Twilight: New Moon. Not that I don't agree that season 4 doesn't have the quality of season 3, but imagine if Dan were reading all of our comments about his show. He'd feel as if he'd failed at making us happy. Even if it's true for some, not everyone is sad about the arc. I just liked when he wiki had more energy and everyone wasn't so...depressing. I won't say people shouldn't be obsessed with shipping cause that's their choice, just that they should carry themselves in a more mature way. Always complaining doesn't change things, it makes things worse. And it makes others not wanna be around you.

8. What do I like about Creddiers? Uh...I don't know exactly. I don't want to be a Creddier because I don't enjoy Creddie at all or any of their moments. Also the Creddie-attitude doesn't fit me. From what I see, they're kinda 'calm', but I guess that's cause their ship isn't getting much hype at the moment. But just because they aren't talking doesn't mean they aren't fighting and behaving badly (The ship as a whole). I'd have to say nothing that I like about them in particular.

This isn't an insult because the Creddiers on the wiki are cool and everything I just have different interests than them, I just mean the Creddie shippers in general all over the internet are not people that I want to be around or be like. I'm proud to be a Seddier. It's a positive, happy feeling. I definitely don't envy the position the Creddiers are in right now canon-wise, but also I just couldn't be like them. I'm sure they're nice people, but the few times when I go on their page it's not helpful to my mood. Creddiers on tumblr are immature and complainers, other Creddiers are just rude in general :P I don't have a very good image of them. I know in the past they were kinda known as being nice, but that stereotype has changed in my book. Don't wanna be anything like them. Again, not an insult, but a lot of them aren't happy especially as of right now. And I like being around happy people. Positive energy <3

I hope you do well on your project!! It was cool of you to choose us to write about. If the chance ever pops up for me in school I'll just have to use it xD Hope my answers were helpful to you :)
