I dislike it when people pretend she's perfect and I dislike it when people bash her relentlessly and unnecessarily. There's some of that to be found on many boards, not just BN or The Ledge.

Exactly! It is also quite ridiculous how anyone who does not find the constant barrage of insults hurled Stevie's way to be funny, is repeatedly told to "lighten up" or "learn how to take a joke". I am a huge Lindsey fan. I adore him as much, if not more than Stevie at times..so I am not a chiffonhead, persay..but I still find the amount of hurtful things said about her upsetting. Saying that is like pissing in the wind though as I will be told to "go worship her some more" or "learn to accept her faults".
Whatever.
There have been some, over the top, quite shocking things said on the BN board. Most of the time those posts are left by young, naive, inexperienced or just plain stupid, fans. There are also some informative, interesting discussions over there and those threads strongly out number the psycho babble. When the post appeared regarding Jessie being SnL's love child, the girl was run off that board as quickly as the newbies and shipper's are run off this one.
