It's been bugging me since I joined the board. Can someone tell me what-on-earth is a shipper (as in "Spike /Buffy" shipper)? It seems to me to be someone who is strongly in favour of the people mentioned having a romantic relationship - am I right? And what is the point? Surely the relationships will pan out as Joss and the writers intend anyway? Is this an American thing or am I just too old?
 
It's short for Relationship-per - people who are fans of a certain couple 🙂

For example, if you like Buffy and Angel together, you are a Buffy-Angel shipper. 🙂
 
I'm a Lorne/Angel Shipper, and my sign is a three finger salute. 🙂 (don't ask)
