Look, I'm not going to do anything about people having stupid opinions.  It's up to you guys to not reply/talk to posters who aggravate you.  As I read the last 8 pages or so, I just kept saying to myself, "STOP REPLYING!!"  LOL.   Also, if you want to reply to someone, you don't have to quote them.  You can use: @[their name].   You can do that so people won't see the post of someone they put on ignore. 

 

Toups, THANK YOU for this. Honestly, I've been dumbfounded by the complaints about other posters.

When someone disagrees with us, I don't think going scorched earth on that person -- demanding s(he) be suspended or banned or whatever -- makes any sense at all. No one made vile/dangerous/insulting comments here, and I just don't understand the discussion at all.

Then we got people complaining they had to see that person when he was quoted. I mean, GMAB. Just scroll on and ignore.

I hesitated posting this, because I don't want to make this any bigger than it is, but I want you and Errol to know that you do a good job moderating here. In the past, I've been told to dial it back, and I have no problem with that. I think you both did absolutely the right thing in doing nothing to the "aggravating poster."

Ugghhh Clyde and Konstantin in the same episode. Way too much annoying old douche for one day. 

As much as I hate Clyde, I was pretty interested in the reveal that we got today. It was a nice surprise and I actually didn’t see it coming. And it does kind of lead to more proof that Days doesn’t need these fake ass Stefano and Victor-like supervillains when they already have characters on the canvas that can be the villain. Plus, it saves the show money lol 

I do like how messy this is all getting and that it’s involving so many characters. The effects of all this could play out for a long time and I’d like to see that.

Ava and Harris were really sweet today too. And how that Harris is waking up, I wonder what’s gonna happen. 

Looks like a hard pass for me.

I thought Wednesday show was the best I've seen in ages. It was very well done.

Yesterday show started slow but improved as it went. I am tired of seeing Tripp kidnapped for the millionth time. It's become repetitive and boring. The cops being the villains was rushed and badly set up. The scab writers didn't have much time to pace this story but the execution comes off sloppy and cheap to me.

Oh and it was great to see Tate again!!

There is no proof SR did anything of the sort and I don't even like Maggie.  It's just a rumor. 

Exactly. A flight of fancy, more than likely. 🙄

And "with contempt"? You don't even know what happened or when. You know absolutely nothing, and yet you want us to treat an actor with contempt. Jesus.

I don't even like Maggie and I don't know why anyone would want her off the show.  She's been on the show for years and years.  She's part of the history of the Hortons.  

Exactly, and now Maggie's even propping Marlena up by appearing in scenes with her.

God bless our Maggie!😘

LMAO I'm sorry, but I can't help but laugh at the idea of Suzanne Rogers' Maggie bothering someone that much.

It's funnier than the proclamations that viewers who enjoy the Hortons are "just jealous of Marlena."🤣

I mean, I love a good slut shaming of an 80 year old woman.  😂

 Next we will hear that the Emmy-award-winning actress can't act!😉

I believe that was already indicated!!!   🙉🙈🙊     As if! 🤔👊😲👌🤏🤣🤣

Lol!  It's almost like Marlena and Maggie can't exist on the same canvas.  Except they have on separate sides for years and years.  I have never once thought Maggie was stealing Marlena's airtime or vice versa.  They fill two different roles.

Yes.

Mary Matthews and Ada Downs existed side by side without issue on AW, as did Alice Matthews, Pat Randolph and Lenore Curtin on the same show.

Lorie, Leslie, and Chris Brooks all managed to shine and be showcased during their shared time together on Y&R.

Viki Riley, Carla Gray, Pat Kendall and Karen Wolek all had their moments in the spotlight during a shared era on OLTL.

There's no competition among characters co-existing on the canvas at the same time, except in the minds over overheated fanbases.

To me, the MORE popular actresses on a soap at the same time, the better for the show.

DAYS was on fire when Susan Flannery, Denise Alexander and Susan Seaforth graced the show together.

How true! Such a memorable time. And, BTS Bell, PFS, Al Rabin, Betty Corday!

That's my hope, too, though, I'd prefer to see Mann (and some others) on other soaps that I watch and can support. 🤷🏻‍♂️

If it all works out, would you come back?

It's going to take a bit to get me back; I've have a long-term, on-going love/hate relationship with Days of Our Lives. The behind-the-scenes drama has left a real sour taste in my mouth, and supporting the soap by watching feels like I'm double-timing, and I hate that feeling... especially since I no longer feel positively about the promotion of Janet Drucker-Spellman.

Was he kidnapped before? D'uh. Not remembering. By whom?

Of course, you are correct.  That is EXACTLY what brings up ratings.  The more popular actors a soap has, the better!!  Soaps that focus too much on one star usually end up in a bad place.

I don't think we've talked enough about this. I really thought we'd see more changes / hear about more changes by now. Instead, it feels and looks like business as usual. The POS is out of the building but nothing else has changed, and no one's supposed to mention it.
