    I know, anything that tells the truth about how the over-zealous canon-Zutarians act is bashing. Because we all know how completely innocent Zutarians are of any and all bashing of Kataang, Maiko, and Tokka. (I've never seen a Zutarian bash Sukka, which is the best ship because no one argues over it. except the Tokkas.)
    argung against a ship isn't bashing. making fun of crazy overzealous idiot shippers isn't bashing. associating those crazy overzealous idiot shippers with a particular ship is bashing. there are idiots in all ships. canon-kataangers have been no more rational than canon-zutarians.

    but whatev. i'm done with avatar shipping debates. knowing how the ending turns out, there's really no point in arguing anymore. have fun, folks. ciao.

    Well, she should have put more disclaimers like "This is not how all Zutarians act" like how Spootay does with her comics. Anyway as for crazy Kataangers, I've seen a few, and corrected them as well.

    I'm a crazy Kataager, but I have a good reason for that: I'm crazy. Never feed me sugar.

    I must take a moment to address the fact that Zutara seems to be losing ground in the war of shippings. Apparently, some people find it funny that two opposites could attract. Well, it's not funny or romantic in the slightest! In fact, Zutara has hidden to the far reaches of fanfiction.net, where there are more Zutara stories than Kataang.

    Is Zutara weaker or stronger than it was six months ago?

    Now, my personal opinion is weaker, as Katara and Aang's relationship has blossomed over the course of season 3. However, in the minds of the apparent thousands of Zutarians, Zutara is as strong as it ever was (not very strong to begin with but still kicking.) after all, the season 2 finale had Katara placing her hand on Zuko's burn (causing thousands of Zutarians to worship the image that has become the center of Zutaria.) and also for that moment, it gave Zutarians the most hope they've had in aong time. Even better was the season 3 fight between Zuko and Mai, which raised concerns from Kataang disciples as to whether or not they are a lasting couple. However, many people still believe that this is how it will pa out in the end.

    Kataang

    George

    Maiko

    Now, concerning Maiko, (Zutarians please do not take this quote as ammo) I do not feel that it is a lasting relationship, but I feel that Zuko will not fall for Katara in the end either, he will either be alone or with Mai. I'm 99% sure Maiko will last until the epilogue, but I wish it wouldn't. I don't like the pairing.

    So does Zutara actually have it's points after all? Maybe, I am a Kataang man myself, but it is shown many times that Katara sees Aang as a sibling or brother more often than she sees him as a lover. This is mostly because she still sees him as the younger boy he truly is, only until recently has Kataang been given so much power, as in season 3 there are MANY examples, while there are no examples of Zutara.

    So in the end, Zutara is a figment of wishful thinking by people who dissaprove of Aang being younger and having a crush on Katara.

    let's just say that the ones who have not read book will probably debate you if they feel strongly zutara can happen, or ad more if they kataangers

    ones who read book will not what to confirm either side

    going by what you posted

    I will just say that Zutarians will not want to reveal the surprise that zutara happens IF THAT IS THE CASE

    Kataangers will not want to confirm their's happen IF KATAANG IS THE CASE, as a courtesy to ones who don't want spoilers

    and I as neutral who thought kataang was more likely, but zutara could happen if Bryke wants it. I will not want to confirm if Kataang is the case, nor would I want to reveal the surprise that Zutara happens if zutara is the case

    not necessarily, it seems a high percentage of people have either read book or have seen spoilers, so most don't want to be at the shipping war and spoil whatever happens, as a courtesy to ones who don't want spoilers

    To WiseLad, don't tell me you've read the book, cause if you have...

    Well anyway, to quote somethin someone else mentioned, I don't think the creators would throw away the character development they've been working on for all 3 seasons in 8 epsiodes just to have Zutara happen.
