That whole thing looked more like a sign of her immaturity and lack of depth, really. Once she found out what she had unconsciously done, and that all the adulation and sexual interest was not truly of all those people's free will, she herself was horrified.

Seriously, this is not that big of a deal. Lynn's just saying, "I'm attracted to you, so I'm going to look the other way so that I don't get aroused."
Right? She's being rather straight forward with her intentions, what she'd want from a relationship.

None of that is something a sexual predator would do.

Tiff was hated? I was under the impression that she was one of the most liked characters.

Personally her and Faith were my favorites in MC.
I must say, I myself don't remember Tiff being criticized all that much.

it was recent, but it was by one of the more loud nay sayers on the forums. I just dont' have time to dig it up
Pointless arguing is one of the three pillars upon which the Internet is built. The other two are of course cat pictures and porn.

Exactly, she was just a girl who wanted to be loved and her powers resonated with the school so the connection was made subconciously... She really thought she was the academy's hot shot (and she is in a way)...

Interestingly the 2 people she loves (Ash and Tiff) are the ones that are not affected by her juice, and her close circle is filled with people that challenge her.
That's what i do... i drink and i know things...

Okay but I think a couple of you are neglecting the fact that DiDi is so oblivious to her surroundings, Lynn could be 69ing her right this second, and she still wouldn't quite realise Lynn is into her. DiDi's skull is such a void, Zen-O could hold a multiversal tournament in there.

Not really. If anything, it seems like you don't know what that term means. Especially since Lynn is being straightforward here.

Lynn is isn't a sexual predator, she's a player at best. That's the term you're looking for.
Agree to disagree. Limited self-control seems more akin to a predator than a player.

Except she didn't say that, she explicitly stated that she didn't want to lose control, which she said she could if DiDi was in sight.

Note the lack of "sexual" before predator in original statement. I understand my mistake, perhaps I should have used "carnivore," or something, I don't know. I had thought without the modifier of "sexual," it would be fairly clear that the point is Lynn is driven by instinct over rationality.

Just type "Tiffany" or "Tiff" in the search box in the top right corner.

That'll bring up a short summary of all posts which mention her. I just did that and scanned back to the end of last year in about two minutes. I couldn't see anything which sounded in the least bit like "Tiff hate". And even if a person (or even several people) was posting the kind of things you said would that really justify this comment

"When I saw people on the EC forum talking about how terrible Tiffany was and how much they hatsd the character, I knew there were no real fans left. Just trolls"?

It's not of matter of "Agree to Disagree", but of Fact and Falsehood.

Calling her a sexual predator, a rapist in other words is a straight up falsehood. You're just plain wrong here.

Still nowhere close to the correct term. You can't just make up terms out of nowhere and expect people to know what you are talking about.

Predator has a pretty specific meaning in this context, even if you leave out "Sexual". The term you're describing sounds closer to player and even then Lynn barely qualifies since she's rather upfront about what she wants in a relationship, namely that she prefers an open relationship. She's also completely fine if her one of her lovers eventually wants to settle down with someone else.

A "predator" nor a player would be that upfront or understanding.

I didn't call her a rapist... Also, you brought up the "player" angle.
Whatever, I don't want to go further into an semantic argument.

OMG, Faith has invaded the Ma3 forum!!!

Talk about off-topic, people.

Anyway, no discussion on what the finishing move should be called??

"The Goosher"?

"The Boob Smoosher"?

"The Pillars of Jerkules"?

:P
