The Ultimate Vampire Resource and Directory

For those that chose to pick at all the differences between real vampires of today and the fictional vamps that have been told about over the years, I ask why? What does it matter if we are actually vampires, or are just something else that isn't named and therefore called vampires do to the fact that the characteristic of the fictional vamp is the closest thing people have seen to what we are. What does it matter if fictional vamps were based on us, or if we were named vampires based on the stories of fictional vamps. Does it matter why we are called vampires? We just are and in my opinion, whether we are vampires or something else that adapted the name vampire just because it fits better than anything else, shouldn't matter. We are what we are, and we are real. If we don't fit your definition of what a vampire should be, oh well. If anyone has anything they'd like to add please feel free to post them. And any opposing opinions, I'd like to hear them too. But I ask that nobody say that we don't exist based on your own beliefs.

You know, that makes ALOT more sense that 90% of shit in these forums lol and i agree

I completly agree with with you as well.

not to sound argumentative, but...

This is a contradiction. You cannot simultaneously welcome, and reject, an opposing opinion.

no shes saying dont tell her they dont exist. you can say i dont believe they exist. see where im going?

ThothLestat, you misunderstand. I welcome opposing opinions, but I do not welcome people stating their opinions are facts. If you say "I do not believe your a vampire" it's an opinion and I don't mind. Saying "Your not a vampire" Is trying to turn an opinion into a fact, which I do not like to see as it is very rude. I'm sorry for the misunderstanding for anyone else as well.

your right. either accept the opposing opinions or not, If you believe in who or what you are then it shouldn't matter what other people think. Be true to yourself and you don't be a people pleaser.

Ah, Judus you got to it before I could, Thank you.

I cannot see this going anywhere but to argument. A challenge demanding no one question the existence of vampires when their actual existence is still unproven in scientific fact, cannot do anything else. If you wish to discuss this topic please word it in such a way as discussion by all viewpoints can be heard.
