Your Autograph Diaries

[nicknifty]

If people can't be happy about another person's success they need to look at themselves first. Giving out someone's private address isn't being helpful. It's making other people lazy. It is also a matter of respect. To whichever celebrity I have the address for.
It also seems to be a matter of people thinking they are owed something. "of you have Jennifer Lawrence's address? You have to give it to me because I can't get it and I have to be able to mail her at home.
I thought this site was about getting autographs and celebrating.that hobby with other collectors. It has nothing to do with bragging. If I can get the address so can anyone else. I mean I didn't call up Josh and said: hey bro I need your address... So I can hold it over all these losers' heads... Sorry you disagree.

Honestly you shouldn't be harassing celebs at their home addresses at all. It's going to turn them off to signing in general.

I'd believe you... If you didn't start your argument by saying I shouldn't post successes without sharing the address... You totally just have changed your argument. Anything else you want to try? One letter to a house where the Celebrity is able to throw it away is not harassment... giving their address out so that everyone on the forum can send them requests is closer to it. Thanks

What I mean is that if it's not an address that a celeb is ok recieving fan mail at, and you know you shouldn't give it out, then you shouldn't say anything at all. It's going to encourage more people to seek out these private addresses (private for a reason) and give other collectors a bad name.

What makes you think celebrities are any more okay with having fan mail sent to them Via Venue? They are working hard and on their down time between shoots out on location or at their job they take time out to open letters and sign autographs... Or any more okay with having to stop on the street and sign autograph after autograph just because they were at an interview?

Either the celebrity will want to sign or they won't.

There is nothing wrong with fans finding an address to send a letter to. There is something wrong with posting an address to have it spammed when its someone's private address. There is something wrong with trying to make other people feel bad for sending a letter out to an address where the celebrity has the opportunity to actually read what is written and not just part of a HUGE pile of fan mail they try to quickly get through to sign as many pictures as possible.

Just saying.

The celebrity is just as free to toss the letter into the trash bin as they are to open it and sign it.

My opinion differs from yours. Mine differs from many others too... and there are others whose opinions differs from yours. Accept it.

Nothing for the past couple of weeks. Okay, it wasn't an entire drought of replies -- I got a PP reply from J.K. Rowling this past week (my second one). I didn't even ask for an autograph, I wrote a lengthy and sincere letter in the hopes her secretary/publicist passed it on to her. Nope.

I'm hoping for Gwyneth Paltrow to reply back in the next few days... well, I'll be on vacation so my mail will be held. Hopefully there will be a reply come July 9th.
