so, have you not yet realized this book is NOT about romance? how sad. read romance novels if thats all youre looking for
i think youre taking this too seriously. the hp's are jo's works, she can do whatever she wants with her characters. if you don't like them, dont read them. you are part of an obsessive minority, because most hp readers are not fuming about fictional characters not getting together.
How dare she follow her own story line! How dare she have a sense of humor!
C'mon, hun. Get a grip and your own sense of humor. It's not that serious. This really is a waste of everyone's time. Why am I even commenting on it?! This is wasting my time.
GINEVRA'S HP QUOTE OF THE DAY:
"George," said Fred, "I think we've outgrown a full-time education."
"Yeah, I've been feeling that way myself," said George lightly.
"Time to test our talents in the real world, d'you reckon?" asked Fred.
"Definitely," said George.
And before Umbridge could say a word, they raised their wants and said together, "Accio Brooms!"
Harry heard a loud crash somewhere in the distance. Looking to his left he ducked just in time -- Fred and George's broomsticks, one still trailing the heavy chain and iron peg with which Umbridge had fastened them to the wall, were hurtling along the corridor toward their owners. They turned left, streaked down the stairs, and stopped sharply in front of the twins, the chain clattering loudly on the flagged stone floor.
"We won't be seeing you," Fred told Professor Umbridge, swinging his leg over his broomstick.
"Yeah, don't bother to keep in touch," said George, mounting his own.
Fred looked around at the assembled students and at the silent, watchful crowd.
"If anybody fancies buying a Portable Swamp, as demonstrated upstairs, come to number ninety-three Diagon Alley -- Weasley's Wizard Wheezes," he said in a loud voice. "Our new premises!"
"Special discounts to Hogwarts students who swear they're going to use our products to get rid of this old bat," said George, pointing at Professor Umbridge.
"STOP THEM!" shrieked Umbridge, but it was too late. As the Inquisitorial Squad closed in, Fred and George kicked off from the floor, shooting fifteen feet into the air, the iron peg swinging dangerously below. Fred looked across the hall at the poltergeist bobbing on his level above the crowd.
"Give her hell fr
quote: but the HBP was, like, a REALLY bad kinda fanfiction
This is beginning to wind me up. People keep saying this sentence, and the irony shines so much that I should probably throw water over it. How is it possible that HBP is like fanfiction when HBP came first? It really did, because Jo knew the plot and the plan for the book. Fanfiction is based on the books, not the other way around.
And...think of how many HP fans there are. There are SO MANY that its obvious that some parts of the plot would be guessed. If you think about properly, we're really ruining it for ourselves, but w/...
Ciao and may all your crumpets be sexy :)
Kitiny, I suggest you take a deep breath and then actually READ the interview.
JKR did NOT call anyone delusional. That was Emerson's word and, whether you hate him or not, he did apologize.
If you're looking for another apology, here's mine:
Kitiny, I'm very sorry your ship didn't sail. I'm also sorry that you are a delusional militant.
However, I believe with time and therapy, I can help you with your problems. You are obviously not beyond hope like the creator of this petition.
Call me!
Call me Delusional, I don't give a damn! What's this rubbish about us 'all hating Ron'? We most certainly DON'T! I LIKE Ron/Hermione too, but the HBP was, like, a REALLY bad kinda fanfiction! Ron and Hermione's relationship ought to have been written better! I prefer Harry/Hermione, but I'm okay with i not happening. I also, hoped, instead Harry might be with Luna! But no! It had to be Ginny! I mean, the whole idea of it was Harry being like,"OMG I WANT TO KILL DEAN FOR TOUCHING GINNY AND I"M ACTING LIKE AN IDIOT BECAUSE I SUDDENLY HAVE FEELINGS!"
Seriously.
All I want, is an apology. Not from Emerson or What's-her-name, because I friggin hate their guts. I want an apology from JKR!
She called us delusional militants! I mean, come on! We're being treated by lowly scum just because we like Harry/Hermione!
You gotta be kidding me. Get a frickin hobby, other than starting stupid stuff like this. The books are great, and just because you Harry/Hermione shippers aren't getting your way, you do this. JKR didn't say anvil-sized hints for nothing. They're her books. Get used to it.
Ok, let me get this straight. You're threatening to not buy the 7th book created by one of the richest woman in Great Britain if she doesn't change the plot of the final installment of her best-selling series?
Yep... not delusional at all...
Are you kidding me? These are brilliant books, and if you are going to boycotte just because you don't get what you want then it's your loss. Seriously people it's called life. Deal with it! And if you couldn't figure out the Ron/Hermione connection in the first book...well, I just don't think you read it right.
Idiots. You people are idiots. It's none of your business what an author does to her own books. Get a life, get a hobby. Stop putting all of your energies into these fictional characters. It's pathetic.
Ginevra, H/Hr nazis can't read, remember? XD J/K.
I'm sure JKR would be insulted by all this if it hadn't come from a bunch of idiots who raise hell whenever something doesn't go their way. Emerson is laughing at all the morons. Nice to see that SOMEONE doesn't pitch hissy fits all the time. Some of you people need to grow up.
he,if u print out all signature pages of this petition you can make a whole book out of the bunch of pages you will get, hu amazing, isn't ? petitioning is love.
Huh? I just didn't post once in a while and now when I retun the freaking hell is happening here! Very lively again!
BTW, who has messed up the page layout AGAIN?
Hey, Harmonians (just the delusional ones)!
Have you even read any of the past signature pages? Do that and you'll find that we posted tons of HR/R evidence. Do your homework first! I hate talking to people who have no idea what they're talking about.
And JADA, you say we shouldn't go yelling at anyone who disagrees with us. At least I'm making some intelligent points rather than cursing everyone off and not making any sense. Come up with some real insults. But before that, go back and read some signature pages. We're tired of addressing the same questions again, and again.
Oh, and don't say I'm not intelligent. You don't know me. I'm fourteen and according to my IQ level, I am technichally considered highly gifted when I haven't even stated ninth grade yet.
Cindy, she didn't call you people anything. Next time please read the entire interview and you will discover that JKR was DEFENDING you!
As for me, I think you are delusional (for thinking H/Hr ever had a chance) and ignorant (for posting such a comment when you obviously haven't seen the evidence).
Cheers!
Snowy you idiot. Apart from your blatant stupidity in believing that JKR would ban the book because of this stupid piece of trash, the paragraph saying "otherwise, we have no choice but to ban Book 7 when it comes out. As the millions of Harry/Hermione shippers are the only "true" fans of the Harry Potter book series, this action will seriously affect books sales, and will undoubtedly force Bloomsbury and Scholastic to reconsider any future Harry Potter publications."
You IDIOT!
a) Book 7 is the last book, why the hell would they reconsider something thats not going to be published anymore anyway you halfwit.
b) TRUE fans??? TRUE fans wouldn't make a stupid little petition to boycott/ban a book!!
c) Millions? I highly doubt that, and even if it was true, it would be pitiful in contrast to every other ship combined. If you think that a bunch of H/Hr shippers are the majority of HP readers, you have a shock coming to you.
(By the way Christine, love your post and your ship)
Snowy, do the world a favour and go play in traffic on a national highway.
Then have a nap on a bandsaw.
You fucktard.
you know...I think JADA actually believes we are going to step aside and leave this place in peace.....JADA you really must be stupid if you think your mssges are effective......I pity you......

I should clarify my post. The line:
"She only STARTED the whole petition and acted delusional. It's everyone else, both some H/Hr's and some R/Hr's that are acting way out of line," sounded odd.
The post made it sound like snowy wasnt to blame for all this commotion, and she is, just to clarify that.
G'nite, (or actually, G'morning), its 1:36 a.m. over here.
Dont forget the links!
I would very much appreciate it if you R/Hr people would stop criticising what us H/Hr people are saying. Durh, Heywood, Sana, Auri, I don't really agree with what you've said. I loathe you. Please shut up, Tricey. Felicia, please stop doing drugs. Ginerva, you're not very intelligent, this message board is not for you so please depart at once. Allison, we can say what ever we want. We have that right and privilege and we can express how we feel here on this board.
To the rest of you, go away!
(post 5547 edited for spelling, grammar, and foul language)
This is like me trying to boycott for: her killing Sirius; James and Lily; Dumbledore; and for Harry and Draco not being together because you know THAT IS THE OTP!!! The person who started this is a loser and its JK Rowlings story. when -you- make your world famous book and become a billionare, you can write your ending however the fuck you want. And how DARE you claim that H/Hr shippers are the only true fans of the book!? You're obviously delusional twelve year old mind can't comprehend that there are more people in the world than just yourself. Don't speak for the majority of HP fans when a TRUE Harry Potter fan doesn't just read it for pairings, but for the ACTUAL STORY.
I am a 23yr old fan who WILL of course buy the last book but is still disgusted by he romance of Ron/Hr. I think the friendship of H/Hr is much more important to just throw aside and think it would be much more reasonable (adorable)if these 2 got togther. Jk has said there were clues as to the R/Hr romance? What clues? Hermoine being disgusted by Ron and his silliness half of the time? I think Hermoine is much more mature as to be attracted to a git like that. This is a slap in the face to the character of Hermoine. She is different. Not a silly lovesick girl. Ahh Im done.
You guys are all fucking insane. I am a Harry Potter fan, and I don't even understand what the hell authority over an author's writing intentions you think you have.
Go kill yourselves.
well... i'll support my comrades in arms but everyone needs to calm down!(we still have fanfiction). even though we know h/hr shoulda happened we'll just keep that to ourselves.
You should visit emmersons' special edition wall of shame for h/hr shippers, it's quite funny, he makes a fool of himself though... what a dumbass! quite sad.
U ppl stop FUCKING critisising what the fuck we say FUCK U DURH,HEYWOOD,SANA,AURI,H/ HRSHIPPERSLAYERESCPECIALL Y FUCK U I HATE UR GUTS FUCK U,TRICEY SHUT THE FUCK UP,FELICIA R U ON CRACK BITCH,GINERVA U R SO FUCKING STUPID Y R U HERE,ALISON FUCK OFF BITCH WE CAN SAY WUT EVA WE WANT AND I'M SAYN' SCREW U AND GET IFF THE MOTHA FUCKIN SITE THEN FAG ASS BITCH,WE HAVE A RIGHT AND A FREE MIND AND CAN SAY WHAT WE WANT AND TO THE REST FFFFFFFFFFFUUUUUUUUUCKKKK KKK uuuuuuuu! BITCH
wow, all you harry potter fans are completely nuts. You cannot control the creative writting process of a writter. that goes against all the reason for writing. sheesh if harry/heroine girl mean so much then just read fanfiction on it. leave the author alone...nutjobs
Yes it was wrong of them to use the word I agree but to ban the book because of it or the fact that H/Hr are to be together is just absurd. There is a reason why you are the fans and she is the author. Read and enjoy the books for what it is people seriously and grow the eff up, please.
Hermione totally deserves to be with Harry (SARCASM). After all, that kiss she gives him at the end of book 4 is totally what makes the book Hermione/Harry based. It's not like Ron gets jealous every time Hermione mentions Victor(Viktor?) or the fact that THE ENTIRE SIXTH BOOKS IS COMPOSED OF RON/HERMIONE SUBTEXT. Wait, subtext? It's fucking flashing in your eyes. Anyway.
Sorry for the long absence everybody..Just wanted to stop by and say hey..I know I haven't been on in a long time..There's just a lot going on.
Kuro-Ku, if you still come here, please don't be too mad at me for my long absence..I just have had a lot going on recently and it seems to keep getting worse the more time that passes by. Sowwy Kuro-Ku..*hugs*
you are too funny... and delusional!! get a life already!! How can you make an author apologise for something she written in her book... seriously... you're a few cards short a deck!!
I dont care that much, but this makes the books that less enjoyable knowing the outcome is so incredibly typical and boring. bickering couple. best friends little sister. fuck off.
YEAH...
....WHOEVER WROTE THIS PETITION MUST'VE BEEN ON SOME SERIOUS CRACK.
LEAVE J.K. ROWLING ALONE. AND STOP FUCKING COMPLAINING AND NIT-PICKING AT EVERY HARRY/HERMIONE MOMENT IN THE NOVELS. BECAUSE IT JUST MAKES YOU LOOK UNGRATEFUL, WHINY, AND MENTAL.
GET OVER THE FACT THAT J.K. DOESN'T PUT HER CHARACTERS TOGETHER ACCORDING TO WHAT HER FAN BASE THINKS. AND STOP GIVING POTTER FANS A BAD NAME. K, THNX.
Meginnes- Ron and Hermione are meant for each other. You need to accept that. Stop living through Hermione. You aren't her and she's not you. Just because you don't find Ron lovable, doesn't mean she doesn't. Every heard of the cliche, opposites attract? For the most part, that's true. Ron and Hermione have opposite interests, but the same values. That's what makes them connect.
And you don't have a reason to boycott! JKR knew that R/Hr was going to happen in her head for like fifteen years and you're trying to tell her "No, that's wrong," ? It's her story. Do you really expect her to change it just for the small minority of H/Hr shippers? You really are delusional!
And one more thing: HERMIONE AND EMMA ARE NOT THE SAME PERSON!
You H/Hr shippers need to understand that!
You! Yes, all of you. Get out of my damn fandom now. Look, I'm sorry your 'ship was sunk, but it's NOT YOUR BOOK! It's JK's and what SHE says goes.
Oh, also, you can boycott the book all you want, but not ban it. That's totally beyond your remit.
How DARE you issue threats like this to somebody who is doing no more than providing entertainment to millions of people around the world. If it wasn't for her, there never would have even been the notion of H/Hr. You should be on your damn knees thanking her, not going for the jugular like this.
More power to you, JK Rowling. You've done wonders - infinitely more than spoiled ickle babykins have here.
Alison xxxx
I totally agree with this petition. Someone so smart as Hermione would never be able to put up with Ron, let alone have him even be CONSIDERED a ship choice.
GINEVRA'S HP QUOTE OF THE DAY:
"I told you!" Ron hissed at Hermione as she stared down the article. "I told you not to annoy Rita Skeeter! She's made you out to be some sort of - scarlet woman!"
Hermione stopped looking astonished and snorted with laughter. "Scarlet woman?" she repeated, shaking with surprised giggles as she looked around at Ron.
"It's what my mum calls them," Ron muttered, his ears going red.
Hey people.
I can't believe it! I've been added on to the Good Fight list! That has made my day. ^^ I'm just going to add Cheryl and Jade to it though because The Grey Lady declared them leaders before she left.
I am happy to say that it looks like we are winning the Good Fight for Sanity. Thanks to everyone who has put in their time and effort to help fight it. But I'm sorry to say we have yet another battle to fight...
Those who have pledged allegiance to the Good Fight for Sanity have a responsibility to ward of all those who display the sure signs of insanity. This, I'm sure, is an obvious note to anyone who has seen our posts. But I must inform you that the terrible insanity has stretched beyond the realms of the delusional Harmony Militia. The strong fortress of defense we have built up for so long is beginning to crumble from the inside. Yes, it is as we feared. There is a crazy among us.
For the last three nights in a row, this anonymous village idiot has been screwing up the forum so badly that the situation can no longer be ignored. This individual has been signing under multiple names, repetitively, rambling on forever in nonsense words against Snowy, saying “one’s old bean” every couple words for reasons unknown. That may not sound too terrible, but he has also been known to repetitively ask many individuals (including myself on several occasions) to shag him in one way or another. This is not only an act of sexual harassment, but it has revealed him to be a pedophile as well since most, if not all, of the victims have been under eighteen years of age (the youngest, thirteen). Also, the individual has recently began impersonating others repetitively so that it becomes impossible to carry on conversations in an enjoyable manner, and is partly responsible to the break up of our extremely entertaining RPG yesterday.
Crazies like this distract us from our ultimate goal of thwarting the delusional Har
"'You're too -' Harry began, but Ginny said fiercely, 'I'm three years younger than you were when you fought You-Know-Who over the Philosopher's Stone, and it's because of me that Malfoy's stuck back in Umbridge's office with giant flying bogies attacking him -'"
HAHAHAHA love that quote. Giant flying bogies attacking Malfoy...
Good times...
Hey guys, I see I've been impersonated while I was gone. I was reading the posts from me leaving onwards and I saw my name as a poster and I was like: "eh?" and then I realised what was going on.
At least when I do imitations they have a point and are entertaining.
So, how's everyone doing?
Uhm.... PLEASE GET A LIFE, you simpletons! IT'S A FRIGGING BOOK ROMANCE! You guys have no frigging say in how JK's story turns out, and the fact that you'd waste your time petitioning for an unrealistic and just plain disturbing relationship is mental as hell.
Yours truly,
