What? there were plenty of fans who hated robert/Frisco getting the shaft, but now the IB fans are getting blamed for not saving them..GMAFB!
Yea, screamed & uproar from their own powerful fanbases....And don't be silly Robert fans wouldn't expect Duke/Anna fans to do anything for him anyway. they're way too threatened & terrified for Robert/Anna to be on the show together without a Duke or Holly in the mix.

However, I doubt they done anything by the way of getting Laura, Frisco or Brenda back on the show so...
thats so ridiculous, WTH, is going to campaign for to save a character they may not be a fan of..thats on their fans to do,Blaming IB fans for that is utter nonsense and it's seems like ther haters are afraid it may work otherwise why care...I 'm not even part of the campaign as a duke because i know it doesn't work that way..But why so angry for any fan trying to keep there favs on..I don't get that at all?

NOP I'm not campaigning either but I don't see why his fans shouldn't even if it's just to show demand for the actor.

Not angry at all and didn't even know about this campaign until it was posted a few pages back. I do know the bring Laura back campaign has been going on since she left in 2013....

The original post stated Duke fans were asking nonDuke fans to help save Duke. Thats the whole point of the subsequent posts, exactly what you just said.WTH, is going to campaign for to save a character they may not be a fan of..thats on their fans to do

NOWHERE is anyone blaming IB fans for anything. Just stating don't expect fans of all the other characters to jump on board thats all. Nobody is angry. All of it is P&L anyway

Duh :dunno


XXXXX ‏@ 2XXXXXXXh2 hours ago
@ProcterGamble going to sleep good tonight. Help us save #duke lavery on @GeneralHospital " #GH

WTF?? :lmfao:

Peeps have gone off the rails...

Reading the TG interview from ML, and knowing that RC looks so intently at social media and will change story/direction based on that, IB is never coming back. His fans have pretty much burnt that bridge. The video RC tweeted basically reiterated the fact that he brought him back after 20 years and now you are crucifying him. Even the soap bloggers are basically saying that the fanbase is out of control.
I do wonder why IB is not telling them to be respectful, he is included in most of those Tweets. No, only the sane members of that fan group have said to stop the nastiness.

I have never, ever seen such vitriol in the last week sent to ABC Execs, RC/FV, actors and the soap press. That is saying a lot considering all the fanbases/wars that play out on Twitter for all the characters

I still don't understand why everybody thinks this is permanent (Might be now). IB is recurring, he could have been back in the summer/fall and he might not even know that. They might have brought him back for a great reunion with Anna. Nobody even knows whats happening in the SL. None of the actors or anyone from ABC has commented on this, no one that to me signifies there is more to this story (or was).
I think they're being REALLY over over the top. And in the end? It'll probably be their over the top actions that keep RC from bringing Ian back. Look at BB? Johnny was sent off too but he was brought back too..Ian is on recurring nothing was guarantee that he would stick around indefinitely. All this save Duke campaign is silly, if BB who was on contract when they sent him off canvas, why do the Duke fangurls think it wouldn't happened with him?
I don't think it's at all silly to support your favorites. I draw the line at being nasty, but like I said I don't see much nastiness, just a lot of disappointment.
some people want to paint the picture of fans of characters they don't like to be nasty and the worst fans ever. Granted, some fans are nasty- as in all fanbases. But it isn't really the majority of fans. I haven't seen nasty side either. SOME R&A fans also got nasty to RC/FV because TR went to Y&R or GH didn't use TR how they felt GH should have. I've seen a FEW really nasty and negative tweeters. But I don't think they represent all R&A fans. It would be a shame if people believed the few represented the majority.

Exactly, it's there right as a fan however, they shouldn't be asking other non Duke fans to joined in either.

I'm a Duke and Laura fan and have been wishing for laura back for ages now and she doesn't have to be any where near Luke but it looks bleak because TG doesn't want L&L and they don't seem to care for laura unless it has to do with Luke.. but i'll keep wishing for her return no matter.

I don't see the big deal if they ask for support from other fan bases so long as they don't feel entitled to getting it. Some will support anyway, on principle, because there are lots across different fanbases who just feel that vets have been mistreated in general (relative to star recruits from other soaps). Then there are others don't really get it until it hits close to home. But either way, so long as nobody's being nasty, who cares.
