All the more reason I'm glad so many Samandans are going to the event(s) in England. You can let her know the Samandans are with her. I'm so glad I was able to sign the poster too.
Edit: Yikes--I didn't even notice I had hit 3,600. Talk about running off at the mouth!
Bless. It's a very human reaction that we forget any compliments we might have received as soon as we see/hear a negative comment. And I'm sure as much as Sam is a character, it must smart given how long she has played Sam and how much she has invested in her, when she reads negative comments about the character as well.
It's unfortunate a lot of people can't seem to distinguish between the character or the actor, or even when they do they don't provide an intelligent critique or well-thought opinion, they simply denigrate or bash.
If she does occasionally trail this thread here at GW, I'm sure she sees how admired she and Sam are and I'm sure she'll enjoy mini's poster and the positive energy she'll receive from fans at AT2 and Avalon.
EDIT: And congrats on your milestone jckfan55

why?
remember when Torri came into the Torri thread earlier this year? Teh little thread, with 20 regular members all of a sudden had a coupel HUNDRED lurking and posting questions and the thread grew by about 20 pages in a single day
he regulars were annoyed by the lurkers who - they felt - came out of the woodwork and 'stole' their nice little thread. The newbies felt unwelcome and it really wasn't a fun thing
I personally would love it if she came here as herself, and as a mod i would do anything she wanted to protect her anoniminty, yet as a poster that witnessed the mess of the Torri thread, I'm just as happy that it stays anonymous, so that she can see us for us and we keep Samanda a nice quiet little corner of the net

Although...it would be so totally wicked if she would pop in and say hi to all of us Samandans...but then I think GW would so totally crash!!
AT: "Hey Samandans it's Amanda"
and then 50 kind of post would follow (if it didn't crash of 10.000+ visits to the thread first, lol)
Edit: way better topic then the last couple of days!!!
Thank you SO much Amanda! (Icons by various great artists)

Its just as funny with either spelling, and I doubt we'd find this word in the dictionary.

If AT ever happens to read something nasty, she can come to GW and get the exact opposite, knowing it's genuine and sincere.
I don't know... I just think we'd act differently on the thread if we knew beyond a shadow of a doubt that AT was reading.
