Excerpts

How long have you realised you were a Noromo? What do you think about the whole Shippers vs. Noromos thing?

NATS: Since I started to watch the show. It's a cool fight, everyone is defending their ideals ... let's see who will win at the end!!!

ANDREA: I realized my NoRoMo Status since the beginning of the show. (But I didn't call it "NoRoMo status", I just didn't think they made a nice couple.) I think, this NoRoMo vs. Shippers is a stupid fight, we all have different opinions, (and, I guess, it's right). The big problem is when, in this case, the shippers, visit your page to insult you, flame you, etc.

MACLAU: Oh, it's a long story... Well, I have to admit that I was a kind of shipper during the first 10 episodes, till "Fire" ... I was a child (you know, I was 10 years old when I watched it), and I didn't understand The X-Files' plot at all. But "Fire" made me realize, that Scully is not enough for Mulder, and that there's a lot of things under the show, more than a "relationship" between the main characters ... I don't agree with the shippers, I think they're watching the show in a wrong way, they are "diminishing" the whole work of Chris Carter & staff; inventing things like "UST", and ignoring the original plot of the X-Files. We (noromo people) are just looking for the vital right of the opposition, and well, we deserve a little bit of respect!!

Have you had much interesting feedback from it, made any new friends/enemies?

MACLAU: I have to admit, we're well known by the shippers, they love to come to my page and flame me through everything they can, the guestbook, the Forum, e-mail ... LOL. Yeah we have a lot of enemies because of what we write about Diana -The Saint- Fowley and our NoRoMo position, but there's a lot of allies too, and the proof is the always-growing Bee Squad!

What are your thoughts on fanfic? Do you read it regularly, write it? If so where is it archived, under what name?

NATS: I don't read fanfic, compared to Andrea or Maclau, I don't like it.

ANDREA: I'm a regular reader of fanfiction, I like it but depends on the kind of story, my faves are the "X-Files episode alike", and I like some of MSR, because there's a lot of good writers, uh, but it seems like always the same story is repeated again and again... cliche. I have some ideas for fanfic, but I don't write.

MACLAU: I don't read fanfic frequently, but I like Crossovers, the humorous fanfic, and the Mulder/other fanfic!

I wrote 4 or 5 fanfics, but in Spanish, and I'm writing a big fanfic also in Spanish waiting to be translated.
