Sam Carter/Jack O'Neill Ship Appreciation Thread

[shippyangel]

At least the main ship on the show got their happy ending, so I guess that's one outta two. I'm hoping SG1 goes down the same route giving their main ship (Sam/Jack) a happy ending.

There's a song that says "hoping for the best but expecting the worst"

I'm kinda like that about Sam and Jack and SG writers

So much for this being a "family." Families don't crucify their members for making a mistake, or even doing something of which they don't approve, and I've seen too much of that here in the last day. NZNeep's isn't the only one, just the one convenient enough to quote. How nice that we can all be so superior.

I, for one, know I make a lot of mistakes. When somebody loses their temper or errs in other ways, I'd hope we'd all politely post our disagreements, rather than creating an all-out attack on the person.

I would agree completely, if this were just a matter of a mistake. This isn't just about him losing his temper and leaving the comments on Joe's blog. This is about the problem of sock puppets, flaming, trolling and bullying which is an on going problem with or without Pete, and not just from any one group.

I haven't attacked Pete or said anything that I consider is unfair.

As for this family stuff, it's true. We are a family. But that doesn't have to mean this whole "them and us" thing. Visiting all the other threads today, I have noticed a recurring theme... they all seem to have members who also post here. As well as the S/J family, we also have the wider SG fan community to look out for.

I don't understand. Why do we HAVE to trust them? They've treated us like yesterday's garbage again and again, making us the poor little cat they kick when they've had a bad day. Daniel fans get what they want. V/D fans get what they want. Farscapers get what they want . . . and we remain the patient S/J shippers who are never on the receiving end of what we want. The only people treated worse, at least in the last two years, are the Jack/RDA fans and the Jonas fans.

And a lot of the other fan groups feel that it's the S/J shippers who got so much for the first 8 years. You might feel that all the other fan groups should be happy with their lot, but why is that? We all have scenes and episodes that we love and ones that we don't, why does it have to be a competition?

I agree, and I hope he doesn't leave. You can't have a debate with just one side, so those who post differing points of view from the majority are a breath of fresh air here.

If it was a matter of debating and posting differing points of view, I would agree with you.

I do not think there is any such thing as a sane Sam/Jack Shipper. It's been 10 years and counting waiting for a resolution how can we be sane? I can speak for myself and say I'm wacko for sure.

Same here

You're 4 hours ahead.

About XF:

Spoiler:

Scully and Mulder rarely had the time to anything shipper. They had a child, Mulder diseapered and came back in the last episode. Well, ok, Scully run away with him, after staying 2 seasons or so alone. >.<
But I was also talking about two other agents, big ship things going on! UST, flirting all the time... They were left... out.

See ya luvnjack! *waves*

Re XF:

Spoiler:

You mean Doggett and Reyes? That was my first real ship. I didn't do the M/S thing, hehe. But I liked D/R!

Ok, so...gonna go write some fluffy angst. My fav. Keep posting shippers!

Spoiler:

Reyes and Doggett.... ah man!! UST was so there!! I really loved that!!!! They added something new to the show... it was special and totally different from Mulder and Scully

XF

Spoiler:

COME ON! YOU KNOW ABOUT MONICA AND JOHN? NO FRICKIN' WAAAAAAAY! I'M SOOOOO HAPPY! YAAAYY!
INDEED THEY WERE BETTER THAN MULDER AND SCULLY.
AND I WAS SO INTO THEM!
They made XF come back to life. Their UST was greater than Suclly and Mulder's, cause their history was a lot more complicated then that!
I'm so excited now! Can't believe you know Mon and John

Think I need to do a XF thread, this is so no the place to talk about it...

That's true. People might think we as shippers have just gotten tons of ship and got what we wanted with 'Threads' and should be happy, buuuuuuuut, we haven't gotten what we really want(proof of resolution) and many of us won't be satisfied until we do.

Exactly.

We are all waiting for what we want (some more patiently than others ). We are all in the same position (ours slightly better in a way because it's canon) but that doesn't mean it has to be a competition. Surely the different groups of fans can feel empathy for each other because we are in such similar positions?

[matoak82]

No I haven't. Anyone have it?

And Welcome to the thread matoak82!

It's your first time here, right?

Nighty night and have lots of shippy dreams! *waves*
