I don’t have a huge collection or merchandise. I don’t have any particular expertise in some aspect of UFO, or hundreds of autographs etc. What I do have is something far more important. I care about the reputation of the series and the characters involved in the programme. I care that we, as fans, do nothing to denigrate those people, I care that, as responsible fans, true fans, we avoid using UFO as an excuse to show, in public sites seen by children, inappropriate photographs. And I care that we should show respect to people who have asked us, politely, not to continue posting those images. I have been accused of not being a true fan, simply because I do not see any valid reason for posting photos of nearly naked women (not even photos from an episode of UFO) on a FB site. Sometimes I feel like crying. No wonder UFO fans are dwindling. If that is what a true fan is.. then I don’t want to be one. I will simply stick at what I am.
An honest fan.
