I find it interesting that Jon and Dany aren't closer, considering that she actually has dragons. did you really think they will come any closer.you must have seen many poll threads like this and you know how it is towards danny start a who is TSWMW poll .you will get rhaego and drogon as the first best answers and then it will be danny .maybe danny may come first in that thread bht it will not be like how far jon and danny were in this thread ..it will be a very close fought poll because if it involves danny there is no need for any logical proof or explanation and just claim anything that is not her .that is how most of this board works Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see why they should necessarily sway someone's opinion of who will fulfill this or that prophecy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you've been here long enough to know Dany is hated by way more than a "few". Her and Cat probably get more hate than the rest of the POV's combined.

Aerion is the character you're taking about. Although Catelyn does have a negligible fandom to defend her...And why do you daenerys fans hate jon snow for having more fans?

I don't see why they should necessarily sway someone's opinion of who will fulfill this or that prophecy. just check other polls ..i have seen danny top the poll about top 4 pov's and other than that anything she will be in top threads that will be a bashing or something bad I would say the lot of people who voted no one is not a fan of jon or danny and instead of choosing between either of them they go in denial . and the only contenders for this prophecy is danny and jon .and you knows who has less hate in between them so they chose him over her .no matter how many clues in the books . that is why I like to see a who is TSWMTW thread ..maybe OP can do it after this one Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can only speak for myself, but I don't care that Jon has the most fans. He's the typical fantasy hero, it's really not surprising. I happen to like Jon, but I think GRRM created quite a few more interesting characters in ASoIaF. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I dont think anyone hates jon for having more fans but in the recent months I have seen posters getting annnoyed by jon's fans but not on himself and those people are not only danny fans Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JonCon's Red Beard Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 So, people who insisted about how Dany wasn't AAR because [reasons] didn't actually get more points for Jon? I think they should have been told. :smug: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Rat Kook Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 Wow, pleasantly surprised to see Davos getting more votes than I thought he would! I mean it's obviously still minor but, higher than Stannis and Sandor is pretty interesting. I really really WANT it to be Davos. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sj4iy Posted October 1, 2014 Share Posted October 1, 2014 I said BOTH characters get irrational hate here. I didn't say by whom. I simply said that go into any thread talking about either one of these characters, and you will see a few people who simply despise the character and refuse to see that character in an unbiased fashion. I like Dany AND Jon. That doesn't mean I'm blind to their shortcomings and won't criticize them when I feel it's warranted. That doesn't mean I hate them, though. A character being criticized isn't the same as that character being hated irrationally. I would say that Dany is a much greyer character who has done more stuff that opens her up to criticism...but that's simply because she's been in a position of leadership and power for much longer than Jon has. And Jon isn't perfect, either. But again, people can criticize a character without it being 'irrational hate'. There are always a few trolls, but most people at have reason behind their criticism.

My point still stands, though. To say that a poll was obviously swayed by trolls who irrationally hate Dany without some evidence of such trolling is silly, imo. I would say the same thing about Jon, or any other character. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
