[QUOTE="Guest 85555, post: 9566558"] This isn't what is happening. Saying "I like A better when is Y" Or "I like A less when it has X" isn't a wholesale writing off of X, or an inability to see its appeal. Most people who have said they don't like X in A, have also said "but I like X in B or C or D". So they are just expressing a preference for how they like A to be. Which isn't them saying you can't disagree with that preference, and it isn't them saying they can't comprehend why you would like X in A. People are going to have preferences and going to have reasons for why they go to a particular franchise, a particular series of books, etc. At a certain point, when the recipe doesn't feel right to them, they may lose interest in it. This angle of making it almost a character flaw because people think the balance of flavors is off in a particular handling of Star Trek just feels unnecessary to me. People like what they like, they dislike what they dislike. They should be able to express those opinions freely without it being seen as some kind of creative limitation on their part [/QUOTE]
