If I hadn't already moved to a decent place, I'd want to move to your country, because apparently voting matters there. Doesn't in the country I originally come from. Votes are bought and sold and if push comes to shove, manipulated and falsified. I wish this is just overreacting and that we all do have control over our governments, I'm just not seeing it.
But even so, every country has a lot of idiots. That does not mean everyone is a moron by default and definitely does not justify generalizations about any nationality or their wishes. There are many at fault here and yes, audiences do play their part as well, but they're definitely not the main perpetrator. So let's not jump at American throats lightly, when this is a far bigger and more global thing, in this case and in general.

You point at America because it's a superpower. But that is all. Farewell MDL. I hope you don't crash and burn but I guess this is a Non-American place.
Hon, as offensive as that was, you're doing the same. You're making general assumptions about an entire website because some users dislike your country or have a different opinion. I'm sorry, but let's be fair here. You are both talking in absolute terms, about topics which aren't as simple. So do lighten up and stop fighting. Do it through private messages, if you have a problem with each other.
As for talking about this, yes, Dramacrazy is not the end and their practices are questionable, but nothing came out of not discussing our problems. Today Dramacrazy, tomorrow a lot more, maybe even legitimate places. I don't think having international fans' concerns heard and discussing about this between ourselves is somehow bad. Remember, not everyone has other sources, not everyone heard about this hours ago. It's someone's right to not give a damn about this, but others have a right to dislike what happened too.
Maybe if we'd spend more time bonding as a fanbase instead of having dog fights over which site is better or which community is cooler, or, as we're seeing here, over which countries are nicer and which citizens more awesome, we could have more useful insight and arguments for people with more power and influence in these industries.
