Yeah, I think some of those icons were over the line. I'll keep my mouth shut about the character bashing ones, even if it irritates me, but the fan bashing ones were out of line.
Yes, some fans go over the top, but some hardcore fans of each and every character do. Whoever made those icons (I saw them) was just hypocritical and it was slightly disgusting.
Besides, these days, all I see is vitriol towards Chloe/AM in a lot of fandom, so now I don't know what they were talking about. (If it was something off LJ, I really don't know because I only have exposure to one Chlark comm and what I think is the main Smallville comm and icons of course)
