Well, if you are going to HeroesCon hosted by SuperFan Sheldon Drum, you better leave your snarky comments at home this time.
For the first time, a harassment policy will (presumably) be enforced.
I'm sorry to say that not only have some inconsiderate fans made cosplayers and others feel unwelcome at other large Cons, but some of the creators of the comics we love so much have done the same.
I hate that the culture we live in makes a minor few feel that they are entitled to act like an asshat when in 'their environment'.
At least one creator who will be in attendance (I'm not naming names, but you can find their dirty laundry at lesser blogs) has had a spotlight trained on the asinine comments he made to people that were perceived as 'non-fans'.
I hope he reads this:
