Max hates his new counselor.
so i decided to make a list of every character i’ve had a horrible obsession with including the age it developed and how bad it was out of 5! a lot of these still exist and i’m 17 now… maybe something is wrong with me? some of these might be a little off and i probably forgot some,,, I KEEP REMEMBERING MORE UGH I FORGOT SERENA FROM POKÉMON WHATEVER
update it’s 3am and i just remembered bendy and alastor SHIT AND TORD
Soy fan de este hombre.
Dadvid does not have to be endgame/Jasper does not need to come back/Max doesn’t always need to be the center of attention, and that’s FINE
Alright, I felt like I finally had to throw my hat into the ring, especially with us getting so close to the end of the season (not series, season) and the unfortunate pattern I’ve been seeing from the fandom over the course of it.
As you may or may not know, I’ve been here since before the beginning of the show. I remember when the first trailer dropped, and I’ve stuck around since. I’ve watched the fandom grow and change, in good ways and…not-so-good ones.
But overall, the one thing I’ve noticed stay consistent was how kindly the fandom treated the writers. Sure there were episodes that weren’t very good before (I will not pretend the entire series is flawless, obviously), but the fandom has never treated the writers poorly. We’ve had our spats within the community itself, but the writers? Nothing but respect as far as I could see.
However…that’s sadly changed this season and I’m really not liking what I’m seeing.
The fandom is growing entitled. Every week it’s ‘Oh when’s Jasper coming back?’ or ‘If Dadvid isn’t endgame we riot’ or focusing on Max being in an episode when the episode is NOT about him.
And before anyone gets mad, let me emphasize that liking Jasper or Max or even Dadvid is NOT a bad thing. I happen to like two out of three of those things very much myself. I love Dadvid content and to see how far it’s come since its creation is a truly wonderful thing. I love Max, and he’s been absolutely adorable over the season, and to see how happy he’s become since the first episode of the show is so heartwarming. And even if I’m not as obsessed with Jasper as a lot of you are, I know he means a lot to you and that’s totally tub-No, I’m just going to say cool. I’m not THAT old.
But….none of that is what the show is by itself. The show has other characters outside of Max and Jasper and other dynamics outside of Dadvid. That’s the entire point of season four. They even told us the season was about change at the VERY BEGINNING.
And to beg and plead for the usual stuff in a season that was supposed to be about mixing things up and exploring new dynamics is…missing the point.
And it starts getting…demand-y. And when a fandom gets demand-y, they start getting entitled.
And as someone who’s been here since the beginning of the show, I’m genuinely afraid of this fandom getting entitled, to the point where it stops doing the one thing it’s always done right since the beginning and RESPECTS THE WRITERS.
Jasper doesn’t need to come back. If he does, that’s wonderful! But if he’s the only reason you’re watching the show, then…why are you watching the show? He was in…three episodes? Four max? Also he’s dead, so it’s inevitable that if he’s NOT gone completely, he will be in time.
Max is a fantastic character, but he isn’t the only main character. David, Gwen, Neil and Nikki are all main characters too. And not to mention the main characters don’t always have to be the focus in the show! Camp Camp has been really good about giving its side characters the spotlight and its been doing that since season one (remember how a good portion of the campers got their own episodes back then?). Max doesn’t and isn’t always the focus. And as cute as he can be, we need to remember that there are other characters. I liked Max and the puppy in Party Pooper, but…guys, it WAS a Gwen episode that gave us an incredible look at the relationship with her father, and we brushed it aside for Max being cute with a puppy.
And as for Dadvid…please, PLEASE, I beg of you, fandom. Do not make Dadvid a negative aspect for the fandom out of entitlement. I love Dadvid (Hell, I kinda-sorta helped get it started on Tumblr) and I will always have a soft spot for it. But…it doesn’t need to be canon. And also people do NOT need to like it. That’s not this argument, but like….don’t force people to like Dadvid if they’d prefer not to. It’s not like…a necessity in order to be in the fandom. I might not like Brovid myself, but if people prefer them having that kind of a relationship over Dadvid, who am I to tell them they’re wrong?
Also people don’t have to focus on Max and David’s dynamic at ALL if they don’t want to! It’s not a necessity! And it doesn’t have to be the endgame for the show. We can still make Dadvid content, even if the show doesn’t end with it! Hell, I actually kind of hope it DOESN’T myself. David is still very young (he’s younger than me by this point) and I hope he waits a bit before becoming a father. I know, I love exploring Dadvid content as much as the next fan, but when it comes to canon? It’s not a necessity and we shouldn’t act like it is.
Overall, we as a fandom need to step back and remember all of the above. Remember how, no matter what, we need to not be like every other fandom out there and lash out at the writers if they don’t do what we want. We need to be better than this, and remember that it’s not the end of the world if Jasper doesn’t come back or if Dadvid isn’t canon, and we definitely need to remember that other characters aside from Max exist in the show.
(Also reblogs are fine, but please refrain from talking badly about any of the above topics in your tags or reblogs. This isn’t a post to shame folks for liking those things, it’s a reminder to calm down and step back and not let the fandom turn into other RT Animated fandoms when it comes to how we treat the writers or when it comes to focusing on one character to the point where others suffer).
ITS THE SCRUNKLYYYYS!!!💚🧡 I love them sm, they are such beans😭🙏

MAX LOVES DOGS MAX LOVES DOGS MAX LOVES DOGS
how many fandom’s do you like?
Oh, wow so many. Let’s start with different channels:
Cartoon Network: any show from the early 2000-10s to Craig of the Creek; plus any anime that was on it like Bakugan and Beyblade
Disney: early 2000-10s sitcoms, TOH, GF, Ducktales (2017), Big Hero 6/MCU, etc.
Nickelodeon: Spongebob, some old sitcoms by D*n Schn*ider, Henry Danger is the last show
For fandoms outside of TV, I’ve seen Camp Camp, Ever After High; used to watch Mianite videos; listen to multiple broadway musicals (Hamilton, Heathers, ITH, DEH, 21 Chump Street, Kinky Boots); watched some shows for stay at home moms like Roseanne, That 70s Show, the Goldbergs, the middle, etc.
I am not avid in book fandoms except for the Artemis Fowl Series (don’t speak of the film).
For the anime that I care about: Bakugan, Beyblade, Fire Force, Magi, JJBA, PPP Mermaid, Haikyuu, HXH, Ass Class, and Azumanga. There’s a few more but I really don’t participate in the fandom for those anime, I just watch them and move on.
This is just a handful of stuff I remember. I try to join fandoms often. I’ll try to put a full list in the tags

Max and David's hug is my favourite frame of television of all time. Nothing else even stands a chance.
Dadvid/Camp Camp headcanon
Max has an extremely high spice tolerance due to his aunt and uncle only buying the "hot hot hot" microwave dinners because they cost the least
Dadvid/Camp Camp headcanon
I like to head canon that Max's parents weren't abusive, they just died when he was 3 and his aunt and uncle took him in. Max's aunt and uncle are extremely neglectful and never home. When they are home they're drunk and sometimes hit Max. This also ties in with Mr Hunnynuts was the last thing his parents gave him. Hence why Max still see's "dad" as a positive.
ok this account is turning into a puddle with a bunch of fandoms and i think it's normal thing. but I hope Camp Camp will stay here for at least a couple more arts, because I have been in love with this series for 2 or 3 years and rewatching now
I was looking through the camp camp hashtag and saw a look of stuff about the girl boss and male wife stereotype.
I thought on it and having recently watched Who Framed Roger Rabbit I decided to do the original girl boss and male wife couple.
I'm not to big of a shipper but I thought it be cute and plus Gwen looks so hot.
Someone save this poor man
