Quote Charming the Flame: Quote cincyghfan: Quote generalhospital2012: Poor Jason, all the way down to page 3!! What is this world coming to?!!! I still love him regardless of his apparent OOC-ness, brain damage that is just now catching up with him how many years later?, and clouded vision!! Hope he has some good scenes today!!!!!  I Maybe Jason needs a helmet... mittens.... LOL Poor brain damaged Jason. this is OT but you reminded me of an bone I have with the writers! LOL Jason has a helmet, I presume at least that he still has it. It's the MITTENS!!! One of the first pieces of advice when I started riding umteen years ago was ALWAYS wear GLOVES. You can get road rash on your arms, legs, torso... etc and still function as along as you still have your hands. Imagine picking the rocks out of your hands and then for weeks not being able to post at soaps/com, or, in SuperJase's case, not able to pull the trigger! OK-- rant about mittens is over. edit: why is it bold? I didn't do it  the bold monster strikes again!!!!!!!!!! p.s. i didn't bold my post either... freeeaaakkkyyyyy |

Btw, MOST of these comments were made by many of the same people who are now commenting that Jason is NOT OOC. I guess he's only OOC when it's convenient.

You don't feel Jason is OOC, that's fine and that's how you feel and congrats but others do! I happen to be one of them but I am also hoping it is storyline related in the near future so I will wait and see. I thought we all got past the point of this kind of stuff.

Is that the right thing to do? No, but I understand why it happens. You are correct JD that others do do it (and I have in the past too) and those "others" got called out and attacked for it as well so is it then ok to excuse doing it yourself because it has been done before? If you were to call someone out for doing something and then turn around and do it yourself, doesn't you calling them out make YOU look bad? Two wrongs don't make a right and it actually makes it look like fourth grade nonsense! Aren't your own thoughts and feelings your best "weapon" in any debate? Didn't we all agree to move past all of this? I mean, you don't agree that Jason is OOC so why not state that with your feelings, instead of mocking and making fun of people?

There are many intelligent witty woman on here that have great thoughts and opinions so why resort to fourth grade antics to make a point (even though a point isn't even really being made but to make people look childish because it's not going to change anyone's thoughts or opinions of the show, just of the posters here)? Isn't it time to move on from Jasam vs Liason? Some have opinions of either side and NO MATTER WHAT is said, those opinions aren't going to change so why use "I am a Jasam fan and I was made fun of before" (using your "point" above JD) as a reasoning for acting like a fourth grader? How about ALL using their brains to make a point, instead of "following the crowd" to make themselves feel better!? Didn't I JUST say in the previous thread that I did not think it was right?

gen...Having participated in what you describe as "fourth grade antics" and in intelligent posting on this board over the last couple of years, I'd like to say for the record here that this is what this board is about for many of us. We want to come on here to be silly (toxic balls, anyone?...it never ceases to make me giggle) and to post about our fave and not-so-fave characters in an intelligent way with friends. For myself, this board is a huge stress reliever (and, trust me, I need it). Not everyone is on here to be dead-serious all the time. That has its place but so does the light-hearted, fun posting about hot guys and silly storylines and vile characters. Ultimately, everyone's style of posting should be accepted on here, and not looked down upon if it doesn't meet our own particular standards. |

Quote onlygh: Here's my take. If you can't be a Jason fan right now, whether you think he's a dead-beat-dad or is being played OOC, perhaps you ought to take a little break from the "Jason Fan" thread. Also, if you say something negative about Jason in a "Jason Fan" thread, you cannot expect that the "Jason Fans" are going to just sit there and take it. I have no problem with the idea that you can be a fan of character for a long time and then decide they stink up the joint for awhile. For example, I really adored Johnny but then I thought he was being a creep. During his Creep Phase, I did not post in the "Johnny Fan" thread. When he exited his Creep Phase, I started posting in there again. This is JMHO...no attacks or condescending posts please. I'm pretty neutral on SuperJase these days. I have been a big fan in the past. I like him just fine now but there are other characters I like better. Therefore, I only post in here when I have something positive to say about him. Hmm, can one not be a fan of Jason but still call him out on his stuff? Sorry but I am a Jason fan (as the thread is titled "Jason fans") so I have the right to put what I want in here in regards to Jason right? Just because I don't enjoy ALL OF THE things the character is doing right now, does that mean I'm not a fan of his anymore? There ARE things I DO enjoy about Jason so am I only allowed to post about the things I like and the things I don't, too bad so sad, I have to shut up and go away? Isn't the point of the board to have DIFFERING opinions and discuss them? I feel something about Jason, you don't, ok debate with me, don't tell me to go away! As you said about Johnny, I LOVE Liz's character but I don't enjoy ALL OF her character RIGHT NOW, does that mean I'm not a fan of hers anymore, therefore am not allowed to talk about her anymore and when I enjoy certain things about her again I can talk about her again? That's crazy! I dont' like what Liz is doing to Lucky but does that mean I'm not allowed to say that or does that mean that I am not a fan of hers anymore? No and the same goes for Jason or ANY character! Sorry only, this isn't condescending and I know it's just a thought you had but that's not your call to make as to who can be a fan when or to say because people like Jason NOW that THEY are NOW the "Jason fans". Heck, this isn't a contest, it's a freakin' message board for ALL opinions. This thread isn't a chant thread to just praise Jason, it's for ALL his fans to comment on Jason. If you will notice, MOST of the posts that call out Jason, they say they adore Jason (or some form of praise) and have been a fan of his for a long time BUT don't enjoy XYZ of what he is doing. TRUE FANS can say that about their fave and still be a fan. I'm sorry if it doesn't work that way in all fanbases but in general fanbases, yes that's how it works. Wish is the BIGGEST Jason fan I know and I would NEVER THINK to tell her she can't post in here because she has problems with certain things about Jason and has pointed them out. She is STILL a Jason fan so why can't she post her thoughts about him here? Who has the right to tell her, or anyone else, differently? Now if there is a character that I don't like anything about them in general and know I will never be a fan of, well I stay out of their threads, which is how it works here right? |

Quote genhospchat: Now back to Jason, I am hoping that this James Franco story brings out a lot of what is going on with Jason right now and going by the flashes of Jason in the rubble of the church, I still think that this is going to mean something for Jason's future storyline. Yeah, they said that they knew this was coming (the deal wasn't last minute with Franco) so hopefully the writers really thought it through to the end and it plays out well on screen. From what they are starting with the creepy guy in the warehouse (or whatever that is) with the CO77X and the pictures...it looks like a good mystery. We'll see...there have been so many spumors from MOC's to Jason isn't really Jason to Sam not being in the story at all through November to the James Franco character being an Alcazar. I've always held the idea, and been proven correct, that none of the spoilers are true until I see it on tv. Editing, rewrites and good old fashion "fairytales" from those "in the know" have proven even the most realistic spoilers as untrue. I'll just be glad to sit back and watch to see how it plays out. Anything with Jason on my screen is USUALLY alright with me. |

Quote Charming the Flame: Quote Nightmoves: Quote katie28: Quote former-gher: Maybe Jason should get glasses, now. Since he hasn't changed, and is the exact same Jason, he's eyes must be going. He once shot the cord holding a statue dangling from a helicopter, he shot Devlin with Maxie acting as a human shield -- now he can't hit Claudia, with Carly doubled over exposing a large portion of Claudia's (albeit scrawny) frame? pretty sure it was out of fear of hitting carly. I'm sure you are right Katie, like Jason should open fire in a crowed room, not to mention while Claudia is holding a pregnant Carly in front of her. Sheesh, what's next just to play devils advocate does that mean he didn't care if he hit Maxie then? When you are questioning the character, it is what it it... But if we brought the writers into it we could question their consistency. Jason has always been the opposite of Sonny. The more high pressured a situation usually the calmer he is. It's what made him so good at his line of work. The only thing that USED to get to Jason was not being able to take action. Now a days lots seems to get under his skin so it's probably a good thing he hesitated on the shot. I wasn't questioning the character or his actions, others were. |

Quote katie28: Quote genhospchat: Quote cincyghfan: Quote genhospchat: Quote alikat: Ya'll are being a bit cruel don't you think? We are allowed to have our opinions without being criticized and ridiculed by other posters. (And some of you really surprised me and some of you REALLY didn't) So what if I don't think like you do. And if others think Jason is being written out of character, so what? They have that right as Jason fans to state as such in this thread. I've just read a whole page of obvious mocking, baiting and ridicule for thinking that Jason acts out of character. I happen to be one of those that thinks Jason has been "written" out of character or maybe a better term is differently than the character has been presented to us in the past. He cannot tell a liar when they lie right to his face. He puts up with BS that Jason would normally not put up with. He's more forgiving with ALL others than he normally would be. He DID miss at the carnival (which I have stated I think was the writers trying to be funny ~ well HaHa...to me Jason Morgan would have been able to adjust for the carni guns) Oh and it has nothing to do with the fact that he's not with Elizabeth. It has to do with the fact that I have seen the change in Jason Morgan, the character. I feel quite slighted by some on this board that feel I cannot think past a pairing or that I only have opinions based on that particular pairing. So, as you mock and ridicule ME and others that feel differently than you do just be sure you don't actually BASH me. Cause that gets you banned from this message board because we have rules and guidelines to keep posters from being treated poorly by others. I'm allowed as a member of this website to have my own opinions. Even if it doesn't "go with the flow" or even if it differs from others on here or that write for the show. I love Jason..."real" or "OOC" and I get to be a fan and participate in this thread. Bravo Ali! It's good that you can be in the Jason thread and actually MENTION Jason himself (that IS what this thread is about right?), instead of just being here to make fun of other people! I have been a fan of Jason's for a LOOOONG time (oh 19 years I believe) and because I am not enjoying him RIGHT NOW does not mean I am not a fan of his or that is has to do with a pairing (which is absolutely ASSANINE) but I guess something has to be said to "follow the crowd." Being able to point out the faults in your fave SHOWS you are a true fan that you can notice these inconsistencies and differences in them ESPECIALLY when you have followed the character from day ONE and they have been consistent on the things that people are calling them out for right now! This "he isn't with Liz so he's OOC" is REALLY getting tired because 99.9% of people don't think that way and it's only the people that aren't big Liz fans that say it. I guess I should be happy that Liz gets talked about so much though because she is a great character and deserves all the talk she gets (in this thread and others). Now back to Jason, I am hoping that this James Franco story brings out a lot of what is going on with Jason right now and going by the flashes of Jason in the rubble of the church, I still think that this is going to mean something for Jason's future storyline. Ali and Gen, honestly ya`ll need to unclench... Come on, its ok for ya`ll to make light and poke fun at Jason when its on your terms... But if another poster does it you guys jump on your soap box and cry foul. I would think as Jason fans you would join in, poking fun at some of the silly rumors floating around the net. Why does everythign have to be so serious all the time? Hmm, to say that "we" can comment about Jason on "our" terms? Not even really sure what that has to do with mine or Ali's post considering the comments made that we are speaking of weren't about Jason, they were about the posters themselves (look at how many people have admitted that already). I have NO PROBLEM poking fun at Jason or calling him out because I think YES HE IS acting like a boob right now, is a hypocrite and has become the Sonny clone and no it's NOT enjoyable to me (oh and AGAIN for the record, it has NOTHING to do with Liz but more to do with his son but I know some won't see that because they see what they want...not saying you Cincy). I know THAT will be jumped on but I'm ok with that because I enjoy a good debate, as long as it's a debate and not just some making fun of others JUST to have something to say or feel like they are part of the group. gen- when i made my comment about jason being written ooc because he is not with liz... i really know that it isn't true... and i was completely joking when i said it.... i haven't even read all of these posts myself... Ok. |

Quote onlygh: gen...Having participated in what you describe as "fourth grade antics" and in intelligent posting on this board over the last couple of years, I'd like to say for the record here that this is what this board is about for many of us. We want to come on here to be silly (toxic balls, anyone?...it never ceases to make me giggle) and to post about our fave and not-so-fave characters in an intelligent way with friends. For myself, this board is a huge stress reliever (and, trust me, I need it). Not everyone is on here to be dead-serious all the time. That has its place but so does the light-hearted, fun posting about hot guys and silly storylines and vile characters. Ultimately, everyone's style of posting should be accepted on here, and not looked down upon if it doesn't meet our own particular standards. Oh ICA with you only that we should be able to make silly comments about our faves (not only Toxic Balls but chasing monkeys...ha ha ha that whole sentence cracked me up) but it wasn't said about Jason but about the posters right? Didn't you JUST post that those that don't have all positive things to say about Jason should go elsewhere (paraphrased) but now you're saying it's ok to make comments about things about Jason that you don't feel are right? I'm not trying to be argumentative with you but I am trying to figure out why the "rules" have changed?

Quote JaneDoe: But is it OK when some posters mock JaSam fans for their opinions? Because it happens. I'm not saying by you, but it happens. Sometimes people get fed up and they retaliate by turning the tables. Is that the right thing to do? No, but I understand why it happens. You are right Jane Doe. I've always said this is a problem on both sides of the fence. YOU NEVER see me defend someone who is irrational or rude or baiting or mocking. However, What I was referring to, I think some posts were intentionally vague but directed at someone other than me. However, when I read them...I felt slighted as well. Like I said, it didn't EFFECT me but as I read it I thought..."Oh gee...well I think Jason's OOC so I must be one of the idiots without a clue" that the rolled eye emoticon and the teehee were for. Then...maybe Jason needs mittens and a helmet because retarded people wear that to protect themselves...it wasn't flat out said, it was implied. Or that *yawn* I ONLY think that way because I'm a fan of Liason so my opinion isn't valid. I'm a strong rational person. I can take it and give it right back and I can do it with respect. That's why I posted my post in here. It was just a reminder that not all those that think Jason is OOC is irrational, can't put a well thought out post together or has a one track mind. |

I think this whole situation has gotten way out of control. This is not about "Sam or Liz" or "Liason or JaSam". This discussion was centered around the fact that some of us disagree on Jason being OOC, Period! |

I was talking about the board in a general sense in this particular post. I just happened to post it in this fan thread because that's where the ongoing discussion was happening. I still firmly believe that if you're in a "fan" thread, you should be posting positive thoughts about the character. If one has negative thoughts, they should start a good old-fashioned bash thread. |

Yeah, they said that they knew this was coming (the deal wasn't last minute with Franco) so hopefully the writers really thought it through to the end and it plays out well on screen. From what they are starting with the creepy guy in the warehouse (or whatever that is) with the CO77X and the pictures...it looks like a good mystery. We'll see...there have been so many spumors from MOC's to Jason isn't really Jason to Sam not being in the story at all through November to the James Franco character being an Alcazar. I've always held the idea, and been proven correct, that none of the spoilers are true until I see it on tv. Editing, rewrites and good old fashion "fairytales" from those "in the know" have proven even the most realistic spoilers as untrue. I'll just be glad to sit back and watch to see how it plays out. Anything with Jason on my screen is USUALLY alright with me. See I am going by what is happening onscreen right now, meaning why I think there is something not right with Jason and that this warehouse stuff is a future story for Jason's frame of mind. I know many won't agree and that's fine but for me showing Jason in the rubble means something, I just can't wait to see WHAT it means. I don't know who has watched today already (If you haven't and don't want to know, don't read ahead) but since Jason just ran into a home with his gun drawn and almost shot a mother and her two kids, was called a monster with a gun and the fact that he looked at the gun as if it was a horrible tool (how "I" perceived it) I also think that this will show a difference in Jason in the future. This wasn't an enemy coming after these two but it shows that IF anything happened, it would have been an accident and that "danger" is everywhere. Just my thoughts! |
