I always have Cullen there. But apparently there's some standard order/conditions they show up in. I don't recall what it is, but for ex, I've never gotten Merrill to show up ever.
Yeah I don't think I've ever had Merrill. Maybe it has to do with class. Number of mages / rogues / warriors.
It's all in good fun! I don't think anyone is taking anything here too seriously. I'm sure GE would get a kick or two out of it, himself. So long as it's not worshipped like some holy item or something in all seriousness. -__-

I know, true 
I just wish people wouldn't group us all together. I'm a Cullen fan, but I'm not that crazy and not the type of person to tweet the VA crazy stuff. I mostly like to talk about the character. So I figure if you're going to tweet silly stuff, do it for yourself and not in the name of all his fans.
I know, true
If you look at the tweet, he never stated to GE, himself, anything about the cereal being some "official Cullenite" food. It was only stated here where, at least to me, we can take the statement as a fun poke at being retweeted. Nothing more, nothing less.
I know, true
I think that's fair. I admit, I do cringe whenever someone tweets at GE in the name of all of us. It's something to keep in mind, at least, that when you use #cullenite, you're not just talking for yourself, you're talking for me, too.

Yeah
A lot of us have been Cullen fans for years and have been a part of this little "group" for a long time. We've been harassed, trolled, insulted, and not just by other forumers, even sometimes by devs who got the wrong idea about us. So I guess a lot of us older folks are a bit sensitive about the way our fandom is portrayed.

This^ I can comprehend. If someone wants to inquire, do so with the statement of either: "I was curious.." or "Some of us are wondering..." etc.

Unfortunately, that won't go away anytime soon. It only takes a few rotten apples to spoil the rest of them. :/

No more Likes for today, but agree. We have enough of an image problem without making our own folks uncomfortable. It's all in good fun until it's annoying.

Um, except that he did.

Doesn't state that on my screen.
This is all I see on my screen:
@ellisgreg I believe that actually is a nickname for one of them...
@DAEanders6 Crikey, you might be right! #obvs #Iamhip #specialk
FYI: This was posted elsewhere in the forum recently (in the hate thread actually):
"I should also say, as a Cullen fan, the excessive nature of many of the fans is way too much for me as well. I'd love to have a place to properly discuss him but can't bring myself to participate in the official thread because, quite frankly, it's ridiculous in there."

That's kind of the point. No point in us adding more apples to the pile.

I guess I'm not quite sure what you're saying. You mean you don't see this: https://twitter.com/...939046837559298

I was looking at GE's official twitter. It's not on there. That's where I got my information.
Aha, now THAT's a good use for the Ignore Button! Thanks for that!

To be fair, the same amount of ridiculousness occurs in every character's thread.

Anything with @gregellis in the tweet, GE gets alerted about. So it's on Eridander's twitter, directed at GE.
All I'm aware of is this, which just seems to have a lot of caveats:
Thanks for the link, R2, but I know there was a post somewhere where he stated that the Therein line ends with Alistair. Gah! The search continues.

I would exchange 80% of the ridiculousness in a heartbeat if it meant getting to have serious and fun discussions with more Cullen fans.
And Morrigan/Alistair would be amusing and semi-canon if you get Alistair to do the DR. And it makes sense, since I seriously felt those two needed to have some angry sex to get all that belligerent sexual tension out of their system.
ugh, agreed.
Though I do believe they just don't like each other, they're my favorite pairing. I wish I could set them up in DA:O somehow

Ah. I apologize then, as I have never used Twitter before, only gone on it to check out official celebs and the like. Then, in that case, yes, perhaps that was a bit overstepping the line. I can agree to that.
Okay, seriously, where is the ignore button?

I think a too-serious thread would drive away just as many prospective fans, though. There needs to be a balance, and I think we do a good job of that here. The news of his inclusion as an LI and prospective news has made this thread heavily trafficked, but that'll slow down eventually.

Agreed. I love ridiculousness every so often but I think there are better ways to pass time waiting for the game
