It's not pointed at anyone in particular, and certainly not you ("ali15son posted a nice version today too" was supposed to be a compliment!). Its something I've noticed - and occasionally commented on - over the years, and I think even all ten years I've been on livejournal! There've been discussions about it in different places over the years too, mostly concluding that at first Doyle seemed to be the more "popular" (for want of a better word) character, but that there was then a swing towards more people "preferring" Bodie, and posting about him. The latter coincides with the rise of forums like livejournal, where ordinary people can post pictures to the internet, and that presumably plays into things too, making it look like there are more pictures of Bodie around. It's purely an observation that there are more images of Bodie posted to lj/the internet in general, and in this case an explanation for me focussing on Cowley looking after Doyle in that scene, when I do usually focus on them both together.
I've said it before and I'll say it again - I would never make an lj post that was pointed at someone else on the internet. If I want to complain about you, I'll do it to your face. If I don't like your posts, I'll de-friend you so that I don't see them. I'm afraid I'm pretty straight up about that sort of thing.
I know there are alot of people who aren't honest about things on the internet/on lj/even in Pros (and I've been the subject of some of them myself, such as the person who trolled me to a nasty forum to try and get complete strangers to pile into my lj and have a go at me), but I would never do anything like that. I haven't got any right to complain about what other people choose to post in their own ljs (presuming that it's not hateful or cruel), and no one has a right to complain about what I post. That's just how it works.
So - short answer: no my post wasn't about you, except for the compliment about your pic. I know you worry about that sort of thing, but you really don't need to worry about it from me - I can't stand people being intolerant and/or unkind to each other. When I talk about things, I'm just talking about them.
no subject
