Being hurt is a perfectly valid response. I didn't think there was any way I could post my thoughts without hurting someone but it's just how I honestly felt.

I don't think you have to submerge yourself into the vidding lexicon to be a good vidder. Or then again, maybe you're right and if one loves vidding but doesn't eat, breathe, and sleep it, maybe their product will be defective. I don't know. I find vidding interesting but honestly can't define myself as passionate about it. Is that unfair to the audience? Can you connect to them without that kind of intensity. Hmm, good point.

In the end I think it's possible to just do it for kicks without all the soul searching and intensive discussion, and maybe yours (general "yours") will be the audience that flees from the scary vidding goddesses. It's all just conjecture on my part at this point. I really am sorry if I stepped on any toes.
