Lady Tippy Wolfsbane Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 Jon haters are mostly contrarians who always think the opposite of the majority no matter what...pshh we said this on the fourth page. Then we were compared to twilight fans because twilight is "popular".It was ugly...No one was stating that all Jon haters were contrarians, but I think it's obvious that a few of them are.

GillyTarly Posted January 28, 2013 Share Posted January 28, 2013 I LOVE JON SNOW OKAY. HE'S AWESOME! He might be emo. He's loveable! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lady of Long Lake Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Jon Snow is awesome. Who cares what people think. I could read a whole book just about the wall.Me too and I like how you put that :)And I love how Kit is playing him! He, Arya, Jaime, Tyrion, Cersei, Sam and Robert are my favorite portrayals in the show. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Naathi Prince Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 It was ugly...No one was stating that all Jon haters were contrarians, but I think it's obvious that a few of them are.I would definitely agree with both of those statements! I like Jon a lot. I've always liked Jon a lot. There's his whole not wanting to father a bastard deal, which I find admirable.and then there's his utter pragmatism elsewhere. He's a great, well-written characters whose POVs I look forward to. People can disagree, but disagreeing just to disagree is LAME. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pugsley Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Jon Snow haters are puppy kickers. I like Jon because of his compassionate nature, his tendency to overanalyze (totally relate), his dry sense of humor and his bromance with Stannis. And in Kit's defense, the open-mouth thing greatly improved in Season 2. The writing took a turn for the worse, but that wasn't his fault. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can relate to Jon as well. I have never questioned his decisions or wanted to shake him, unlike other characters that I enjoy. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wanderer Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Exactly. If Jon does something bad then it'd be, "Oh man what a jerk, how can anyone possibly root for this guy?" But if he does something good, then it's, "Oh god he's so boring, what a sterotype, what a cliche, bitch bitch bitch."There is literally no way for someone like that — an actually decent person doing stuff for the greater good and not empty, transient political power — to win on here.Couldn't agree more. I'm really tired of all the cynicism in popular culture today. It's not only tiresome, but intellectually lazy and dishonest IMO. There is a lot of grey in this world that is true. But there are genuinely good people out there as well. It feels like Debbie Downer central in here sometimes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It feels like Debbie Downer central in here sometimes.I get the impression that some people think it makes them look smarter if they yell cliche at every little plot angle or character they don't like. Yeah we all know Martin's ASOFAI takes a lot of influences from previous fiction. We know. And its hard to come up with 100% original ideas in any genre. Every writer, consciously or no, is influenced by other writers. Almost everything has been done before, so you're bound to have "tropes". Its how as a writer you deal with "tropes" and give them an alternate dimension as what Martin wants to do that is important.Jon Snow haters are puppy kickers.Haha. To put it in Lyanna Stark's words, they're meanies.I LOVE JON SNOW OKAY. HE'S AWESOME!OK YOU DON'T HAVE TO SHOUT ITS COOL. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PatrickStormborn Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 I agree. I can relate to Jon as well. I have never questioned his decisions or wanted to shake him, unlike other characters that I enjoy. Wait, you didn't want to shake him when he told Gilly that, if she didn't hand her child over to him, he would make sure he was burned alive?

kephv Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 What are you talking about?There is literally one Jon Snow hater on the forum. At least 90% of the other members like him and a large portion direct their hate at other characters who might rival his narrative importance.This! Has the third person who isn't a Jon fan finally agreed to join this forum? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LordBloodraven Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 Wait, you didn't want to shake him when he told Gilly that, if she didn't hand her child over to him, he would make sure he was burned alive?He had to kill the boy. You have realized that he went to extraordinary measures to save Craster's son who, honestly, was nothing to him. When sweet talk brings you nowhere, you have to be "the villain" for the greater good. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
David Selig Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 If you like Jon, I'd like to see you list those characters you dislike. it's only fair to give us who don't like Jon a chance to explain what personal flaws of yours or lacking areas in your comprehension of the series lead to this and explain how wrong you are.After all, this is what has been going on for most of this thread in regards to those who don't worship the hero of the masses Jon Snow. :rolleyes: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When sweet talk brings you nowhere, you have to be "the villain" for the greater good.He wasn't saving Craster's son, he was putting him in danger. The one he was saving was Mance's.

Ahead Posted January 29, 2013 Share Posted January 29, 2013 At some point Jon started to annoy me with his honour and duty attidute towards the NW.I began wondering when he starts thinking about what´s good for him instead of self-sacrificing his own interest for the good of the majority.
