The majority of us are intelligent, articulate, discerning and quite civil. But we still encounter more than a little of that "oh, you're a mindless Chiffonhead -- your opinion means nothing" hooey. Which, to me, is "catty nastiness" at its finest.
As you admitted, we're stereotyped by the reprehensible behaviour of a mere few... but unfortunately we're all stuck trying to live it down (or to just "live with it") because others in the fan community refuse to let anything go.

Exactly. That's why I get tired of some of these boards and chatrooms is because there are some, not all, people that believe they are right and everyone else is wrong. I believe in civility, and respecting others opinions.
