Okay I am new here, and I realize that most of you are M/L. But this mean that you flat out hate alec? B/c I like alec. I don't ship him or anything. (I don't ship anyone. There are relationships on TV? What for! That's not entertaining!) But I mean, is it not allowed to talk about him at all? Because really, the guy is hot and I love him. I don't have any desire to ship him, but if I ever did want to talk about him would I get flamed or something?
Not that I want to talk about him now, I was just wondering, for future referance and all.

i for one dont give a damn about alec since i find him totally unnecessary to DA and i dont find jensen attractive at all DAR members don't hate alec , they dont want him to be in max's love life ever some find him fun , some other female poster find him good looking but from what i understand logan wins easily on that matter here , thats why there's no alec thread so far i think , but i may be out of the loop

SK, Go to the first thread in this section. Everything is explained very well in the thread titled, "WHAT IS DAR ABOUT" I love it here. It's my favorite place to be these days. That's the thread that got me wondering in the first place. It said don't talk about alec, because this is for m/l shippers or people who don't ship. See now, I wouldn't talk about shipping alec, but that thread didn't really clarify I dont' think. That's why I was asking. So it's okay to talk about him, just so long as you don't ship him for anything? I'm still confused. sorry!

SK I guess the problem is that there has been a lot of bad blood between some of the M/A shippers and the M/L shippers. When we started this board we didn't want that to come over here. So we said no Max/alec threads and no alec threads.
I don't think anyone has a problem if you want to talk about alec on one of the other threads - we just don't want to see any of the shipper wars stuff starting up here.
Does that help with your question?

Oh yes exactly! Thank you so much that is exactly what I was asking. And I'll have no problem with any shipper stuff. I'm a non shipper through and through. You don't have to worry about that!
And I've never been to this board that everyone here seems to dislike so much. Am I missing out? J/king, and that was a rhetorical question too. ;D

hello
i'm sorry if anyone has asked this question before - I earnestly tried to find out by reading as many posts as I could before asking - What is "shipping"??
I have a vague idea of what I think it means but I would like to have someone else define it. Is it US slang or just a word used on this BB?
thanks nevyn
PS I know it's heresy to say this but I like the character of alec, although I'd prefer Max to get together with Logan. I think I would like someone to start up an alec thread on this BB.

ship comes from relationSHIP , the expression started with the x files
i, for one, dont see the need for an alec thread here but thats just me

my 2 cents re: "alec". Sure, talk about him. I like alec, the character. I also like Jensen Ackles, the actor. I think that he is good looking and a talented actor. The character of alec in Dark Angel I found to be "comic relief" but also he was developing into a compassionate human being who was realizing responsibility to other people. I did not care for the character alec as a love-match for the character Max. The relationship between Max and Logan had developed gradually and grew into a deep, trusting bond. I hated to watch that not be treated as part of the story, and I found the "virus" a boring, unnecessary contrivance that diminished the dramatization of the personalities of the characters and consequently their acting roles.
alec was no substitute for love between Max and Logan. What alec needed was a love of his own - but we never got there. I'm not much on creating characters but I hope that someone in the Role Playing Game (RPG) will create a love for alec!

^^see that s the point, it's quite easy to go around alec
besides 2 others persons here i dont see many discussing alec so ......pretty much of a moot point imo
as for the rpg , i'll keep an eye on it

I just wanted to say hello and to introduce myself. My name is Laura-Leigh and I have just joined.
I began looking for DA sites a week or so ago to find pics of Jessica and Michael. I have been in love with DA, M/L, and J/M since the show first came on. I can't believe that Fox would cancel the best show on the network and I just keep hoping that they'll change their minds.
This is the first board that I've been on. I never really wanted to be on a board like this one or anything else, but I was reading some of the posts and thought that this is actually a good place to share my likes with others, so I decided to become a member. I know I'll enjoy this board and the people on it. Talk to you later!! ;D

Welcome Laura-Leigh - even thought DA the show may be cancelled DA lives on with all of us.
As well as working to communicate to Cameron that he has a ton of fans out there waiting for him to finish his story, members here do all kinds of creative DA stuff.
Make sure you check out the Fan Work threads and the Seattle Room for fiction, art, videos and the new Role Playing Game. Some members are working on a Virtual Season 3 and there's always the Game Room!
Have fun! ;D ;D
