Well, actually I haven't seen any "shippers" on this board for a very long time, at least a year, and in the almost three years I've been here (plus two during which I wasn't a member yet) I've seen maybe one person that seems to correspond to the definition of shipper you just gave.
I think that part of the fandom you're talking about has long deflated and the few that remains are out of this board.

So you're saying that my 13 year tenure of baiting, worked?

THANKS!!!!

Yeah that's what I meant, I had a more different idea of a shipper based off what I'd seen on here. I knew that more extreme brand existed but I never saw them on here so I figured they weren't a thing anymore.

I just always ASSume that they're on the Stevie board...

(I never go there. Literally maybe 5 times in the 13 years I've been here.)

Yes. I'm a concrete guy, and there are just too many unicorns on there. At least that's the way I imagine it being.

Actually, the few times I was there, there was just too much "Stevie can do no wrong" worship. And Homie don't play dat.

Fair enough. There are probably some fans (of anything really) who are a bit extreme. I remember in particular, the guy that ran the Ivory Keys site, I read some of his old posts and he was particularly ardent.

The thing you said about unicorns reminds me of Waddy's Q&A that I read where he said how in the early days, he just could not put up with Stevie's lyrics and was always asking Lindsey to go out and play something else.

The best era of Fleetwood Mac in my opinion is without a doubt the Rumours era (1975-1987)! The music was bliss, the songwriting phenomenal, and Stevie, Christine, and Lindsey's harmonies were pure perfection to my ears during this era! Hello all I've introduced myself on the Stevie board but this is my first posting here! I'm 18 and became a huge Mac fan a little over 2 years ago. Glad this board is here so we can all share the love for this wonderful band!
