Nothing I guess, but like I say, it underlines a key difference within the community. Folks like yourself, here for the “good time”, are welcome to Todd and his delluded ramblings.
Personally, I’m not here looking for prep girls trying to piss off mom, or mid-life crisis victims who think climbing into a corset and donning a pair of fangs is a suitable substitute for self-esteem. So, yes, I have issues with it being “commercial”. I have issues with Vamp merchandise, I have issues with Vamp balls, dances, trips to romania, etc, etc… It’s cheap. It’s like Christmas being about drinking Coca-Cola and leaving out mince pies for Rudolph.
For me, I just pissed off that more and more, the “vampyre” community seems to simply be about having the derranged, perverted unwelcome dregs of the goth community, using “vampirism” as an excuse for their lack of morallity and decency.

Again, not in it for that, perhaps you are.. in which case, I’d suggest a dating agency. Costs less, far less dangerous and foregoes the need to hang around greasy long haired middle aged men with a fetish for school girls in PVC.
I KNOW I’m in the minority, if not some tiny isolated island all on my “Todd” (geddit?), but hey, I’m a peacock, and will squark at every opportunity. 😉
