Thanks! I hope someone can find the caps so the mystery is solved, but in the grand scheme of things, lying about her age is the thing she did that concerns me the least.
I really have no doubt that she acted like a nice person to everyone on her flist. Because I've interacted with a few multishippers she had friended in the past, and all of them seem like really nice people.
In the past I seriously thought both sides of the shipper war were totally nuts but this whole situation has made me so ridiculously paranoid I cannot even say. I mean, I couldn't even upload an icon to my userpics without asking myself if it's worth the blood pressure spike to see it shamelessly ripped off. CRAZY.
I've been a Chloiser since S3 and I stopped liking Lois a long time ago, but I have no problem with Cloisers or people who like Lois. It's cool if they like Chloe, or even if they hate her. Back in the day before everything got so crazy personal, I thought the debates from fans of each character were what made the fandom most interesting. Clark and Lex fans would debate like crazy over who was really the wronged party in the friendship, and it created interesting discussion, and back then it was okay if you liked one or the other or both. I think the Chloe and Lois debate lost that a while ago and just became about both sides needing to win, and got insanely personal, and it's impacted the fandom for the worse.
And yeah, I totally get the crazy out there: I posted an episode picspam a few months ago focusing on Chloe (because...she's my favorite character) and got a ranty anonymous comment about how dare I exclude caps of Lois from my picspam and refuse to show my flist what a wonderful person she was, and clearly I hadn't spent my time taking and uploading caps of Lois because if I had just included her wonderful scenes, it would show my true colors of how wrong I was to not be a Lois fan. CRAZY. Apparently you're not even allowed to post about Chloe when you're a Chloe fan. O_o
But anyway, thanks for taking the time out to read the post and comment here, it always makes me happy to see some sane people in the fandom. *g*
