I wonder if Ryan and Jackie stay together in this film? But no one tell me, I’ll find out for myself. lol Seriously though, most of Ben’s movies have sad endings. Did anyone ever notice that?

Thanks for the new pics Stephanie!

What would you do withouth Stephanie and BBF?! Couldn’t imagine a life without this site…just kidding :D

F2write said:
@Dianna and @CindyDakin – 100%

It must be so rewarding to be recognized! And to be the numero uno site; so much that the object of our affection utilizes it as his own resource/living legacy!

@CindyDakin speaking of time…I can’t fathom where you find all of yours to make those amazing textiles. My mom did that for many years while I was growing-up, so I completely appreciate your effort. Truly exquisite.

LaRose said:
lol, Cindy Dakin, neither do I.

Ben highly praised this fan site and Stephanie’s hard work!

CindyDakin said:
@F2write thank you very much! I always do it in my freetime. Especially after a stressfull day to relax. It helps me to forget some negative things :)

Carol said:
@CindyDakin Yes, I truly appreciate this fan site, really! My life is now complete and that’s no lie! :)

Thank you Stephanie for these new pics!! They are amazing. Especially the one where Ben is playing the guitar and the one with the trains.
I hope J&R will be available in my country as soon as possible, because I can’t wait any longer!

F2write said:
@CindyDakin Congrats on the showcase of your work on IG. Wow! So happy for you!

May 13th, 2015

CindyDakin said:
@F2write thank you very much!! I am so happy Ben likes what I did. Have sent him that to London but I am scared it got lost in the mail. It is my favorite embroidery!!

May 13th, 2015

Dianna said:
That would be just terrible being lost in the mail. You sure . Maybe he hasn’ t recieved it . Maybe he hasn’t been to LOndon yet after you sent it?
Anyways i truely hope this masterpiece didn’t get lost.

May 13th, 2015

LaRose said:
Wow Cindy, I didnt’ know you had mailed that to him. I know you wanted him to have it. Did you tell him you had mailed it? Hopefully he gets it. Maybe if he knows he can be on the lookout for it. He could let the staff know at the London office it will be coming.

May 13th, 2015

CindyDakin said:
I have mailed it in January and he knows it, cause he has answered to one of my comments on my account months ago. I just hope he will let me know if he got it. Missing it already. I think I’m gonna stitch it for myself again :D

May 13th, 2015

Dianna said:
cindy,
I’m sure he will let you know something when he recieves it !

May 14th, 2015

LaRose said:
Yes, I’m sure he will. Like I said on FB, I didn’t realize he, himself had given you the address to send it to.

F2write said:
It would be grand and unexpected if he occasionally “popped-in” on this site to share positive news or confirm specific questions – like the gift delivery. :) Many celebs do that on verified fansites. It’s a strategic PR move and would definitely generate buzz and attract new followers. It could serve as an adjunct to his already impressive outreach efforts on Facebook, Instagram and Twitter.

Direct messaging is rare for a public figure to accept and for a good reason as it opens a potential Pandora’s Box. One-way messaging (with a moderator), such as a board or a Q & A, is a controlled and vetted environment.

Just my humble musings and wishful thinking.

LaRose said:
I heard that. I wondered that too

May 20th, 2015

LaRose said:
F2write, I wish certain fans on Twitter would understand the reasoning behind a celebrities not wanting to “follow them” I would never even ask and I wouldn’t expect it.

There are fans however,that just don’t get this.

May 20th, 2015

F2write said:
@LaRose Agreed. There will always be those who feel “entitled.” And, those simpletons who have no empathetic reasoning and cannot possibly comprehend the ramifications of their words/actions. Social media opens the portal to connect us to the kindly…and to the undesirable side of human nature.

Laissez-faire is a policy that should be adapted, here.

IMHO, it’s a privilege to have access to a medium that allows me to learn more, share and appreciate candid personal glimpses with like-minded souls. :)

…and with that, I return you to our regularly scheduled programming…

Nabi said:
@LaRose and F2Write: It’s only certain age groups I believe. To them it means something, because they’ve grown up with the ‘importance’ of the medium. A notification from a new follower or a birthday wish means the world to them.
Also, it’s the internet so don’t judge them too harshly. The internet is a place that knows no boundaries and brings out the weirdest things in people. To some it’s plain entertaining, to others simply annoying.

LaRose said:
So true. I assume these rude fans are young and still think of a celebrity as someone who is obligated to do what fans want and not just a person like themselves who have feelings and deserve respect just like every person does. A certain “fan” I’m referring to actually tweeted a crude statement to a celebrity (not Ben) regarding his sex life. And she wonders why he won’t respond to her. I know I wouldn’t

May 21st, 2015

Drone said:
LaRose, I think the girls that asked Ben (and I’m sure not just him) to follow are high school kids who, like Nabi said, feel the ‘importance’ to acknowledge their presence in social media. Maybe it is something that they need to ‘compensate’ something in their real lives. Sometimes I’ve came across girls that replied to Ben’s tweets so many times and at some point, were ‘pushing’ him. It was a bit painful to read through but somehow I felt sorry for them. We don’t know what their lives are but I hope they could learn the etiquette to engage with someone you’ve never met.

F2write said:
I find twitter amusing; a social experiment. It’s not just Ben who is badgered. They’ll do it until someone, anyone, responds. Veruca Salt, anyone (the Roald Dahl character, not the band)? Out of curiosity, I looked at some profiles…they tweet the same message 10x or more. It’s what happens when teens are bored and armed with smartphones.

On the flip side, though, however painful it is to sort through, the feedback keeps his name viable and on the radar.

May 21st, 2015

M said:
His Facebook page and Instagram account are the same; any time he posts something, half the comments end up being incredibly cringe-worthy. I don’t think they’re all from teenagers either. Some of those girls look to be in their 20s, which is quite embarrassing. I hope it doesn’t bother him too much. I love his posts.

May 25th, 2015

LaRose said:
I agree that some girls do say dumb things I would never say, like Ben please marry me. I bet he rolls his eyes every time he sees that. Lol

May 25th, 2015

CindyDakin said:
It’s so childish when fans say ” Oh Ben I love you so much. Please follow me” or “I’m your biggest fan” those are often the ones who have only watched Prince Caspian or Dorian Gray. Sorry but it annoys me a little bit. :D
The singer of one of my favorite bands is almost 40 years old and it’s so fun when 13 years old fans say that they love him so much. I mean HELLO? He could be their father :D

May 25th, 2015

F2write said:
The “marry me” posts are just sweet tokens of affection. What irks me is the inappropriate and questionable observations and assumptions certain “fans” feel compelled to share. If you wouldn’t say that to someone IRL during the course of conversation, then don’t commit it to perpetuity online. Engaging these interlopers always compounds the situation. Guess I’m too protective of people and ideals that I champion.

May 25th, 2015

Viennah said:
I totally agree with you girls. It’s so funny yet so annoying to see how these “fans” literally bomb him with these requests.. And some of them are quick rude.. It looks like they don’t understand he’s the same as we all, a normal human being who just happened to be on public due to his work. When I worked as an assistant for event planner in NYC I saw so many “celebrities” at those events I worked for, so I stopped to treat them as they’re special. Everyone needs some privacy and right to be truthful to himself/herself.
I will always admire Ben for his endless talent and sense of humor he shows during his interviews :-) and sometimes I feel sorry there are people out there who doesn’t appreciate this…

May 25th, 2015

Drone said:
The one that I felt sorry for Ben is when he commented on the ‘Top Gear’ fracas. People were ‘attacking’ him endlessly even men did too. Fans knew he didn’t mean it in bad way but maybe people were mistaken his words for arrogance. Take it is as a lesson to be learned in the future. Not all people are gonna understand you.

May 26th, 2015

CindyDakin said:
@Drone Yeah I was so sorry for him. People on social networks can be so mean. :(

May 26th, 2015

LaRose said:
I assume Ben is learning to ignore the idiots online. I hope so. I”m so happy he decided to join social media and I’d hate for him to leave now! We all would!
