well I decide to start a poll to see why do you request an autograph request from a certain celeb. I never bother sending requests to celebs that i'm not interested in even if that person is good at TTM requests.

The ONLY reason anyone should write is if they're a fan.
Those who write just to get an autograph are the people who ruin it for others.

I agree

No use of writing just to get someone's autograph...Trust me if I would have done that my collection would be huge

thank you!!! Other people need to realize this. A lot of people write to certain celebs just because they are good signers and then the address ends up getting overwhelmed with requests. Especially if its an email address, sometimes people will write to them just for the heck of it. And then either the address gets shutdown or the celeb turns to preprints. I wish people would stop selling autographs too, but doubt thatll ever happen. It makes it more difficult for us

yeah. i posted myspace successes for a while, and they got tons of fake "fans". then they got angry at me.
i think you should only write if you really like their movie/music/show

Excellent point & I totally agree. I only write to celebrities who I am fans of. I wouldn't write to a celebrity just because they are a good signer or they are fast at answering fanmail. I also don't like people who write to celebrities only because they want to sell the autograph(s) on EBAY because these people who sell autographs ruin it for everyone else. In fact, some celebrities have stopped signing TTM because they don't like the fact that they sign an autograph & send it out & then certain people sell the autograph(s) on EBAY, et al.
Only write to celebrities who you are fans of not because they are good signers of fast at answering fanmail. My autograph collection is special to me because all of the autographs are celebrities who I'm fans of.

Like everyone else had voted; I send fanmail because I'm a fan... I hate it when people send just to get an autograph also. :x Blah.

Never understood why people write to celeb they don't even know. I rather have Autographs of people I actually know and like them waisting time and money over celebs that I don't like or know about.
