I accidentally deleted someone's post here. I don't remember whose it was, so if your post is not here, it's because I pressed the wrong button. I'm sorry about that.

Before Macs got raped him and Sioned were so nasty and selfish,no two people were more compatable.Scott did the one thing that would really mess with his head.Since the rape I defnelty like the two actors Rhys and Emily.They've done a great job.

@jspccz I think people who are posting 'Macs is to blame' are simply looking to make inflammatory statements and get a rise out of people. It's not just boring, but also childish. And like most bores, they are better off ignored.

I wonder if Macs is finally going to tell his fiancee about what Scott did to him. I feel so sorry for him. At least, he has Iolo and his dad there to support him. At a time like this, he really needs it. This storyline is getting interesting.

@namkun78 There's nothing wrong with Thailand, I just thought it was a weird place for the writers to send Scott. It's so random.

@vrymascstud09 I agree with you on how Sioned and Macs treated Scott.

And hey, I'll keep an eye out for your comments...it's been fun! No, really it has.

[vrymascstud09]

@PABWECG I'm really a very nice person and you seem that way too. And I agree, it's refreshing to demonstrate civility while disagreeing.

The writers did a nice job of potraying Macs and Sioned as selfish, nasty and egotistical. They treated Macs as a subhuman.

But because this is soap, I just can't forgive Macs and Sioned for how they treated Scott. It was painful to watch.

If I write something in the future that you disagree with, let me know......... I expect to hear from you!

[PABWECG]

@vrymascstud09 Of course I know that. But I think how we "treat" fictional characters translates into how we treat real people...especially since we live in a world which likes to divide people up into "good guys" and "bad guys" as opposed to simply all human beings, with good and bad about us.

I guess I do take even fantasy seriously...but that's me.

And thank you for the apology, btw. I appreciate it. It's nice to be able to exchange civil dialogue with people, even when we disagree.

[vrymascstud09]

@PABWECG I'm sorry my comments botherd you. That was not my intention.

May I suggest that you keep in mind that this is soap, fantasy.

[PABWECG]

@vrymascstud09 Of course not. But not all entertainment should make us laugh. Some should make us cry or make us angry, etc.

I was just pointing out that we can feel bad for Macs even while feeling bad for the people he's hurt. My "having fun" comment was because I was disturbed by someone's enjoying Mac's pain. That bothers me.

[vrymascstud09]

@PABWECG Soaps are written for the purpose of entertainment. Is that a bad thing?

[PABWECG]

@vrymascstud09 Having fun? How can you not feel bad for a person in pain? Any person. Even a person who has caused others pain. I guess I have a difficult time understanding that.

Macs hurt others and that was awful. Now, Macs is hurting and that's also awful.

@jhr459 Maybe a couple of weeks before the rape.

Dammit, they've gone and redeemed Sioned.
