What does "shipping wars" mean?

Verbal arguments between people who have different opinions about romantic relationships between characters of a show, book, etc.

A noticeable one would be the war between a

Robin/Raven shipper and a Robin/Starfire Shipper.

Don't say anything negative about "Stranded" online. You'll start a shipping war.

Shipping wars - what does it mean?

A ship war is when two groups of shippers fight over whose romantic duo is destined to be. It is especially fractious if the head writer for the show publicly disses one coupling. These fights happen on the forum board for the show and lead to lots of trolling, ship vids, shopped pics and out right hatred. The only positive is they bring much lulz.

@fastmaster Hey, did you see that Ship war on the lost board?

@markyfunky They be a hating tonight.

@fastmaster At least Glee isn't in a Ship war yet.

@tehmaster They will when RM launchs the back 9. He said Puchel is a failed mashup

Shipping wars - meaning

A shipping war is when two or more people have an argument over a paring of most likely fictional characters. Often fan art of the ship that lets say, person A likes will be sent to person B to upset them and vis versa. Shipping wars are either to prove the others ship wrong, to get the person to abandon their ship, to start shipping the pair you do, or simply to anger someone. Usually each person will bring up cannon situations and parts of the movie/book/show/manga/anime/etc to either back up why they ship that pairing or to prove why the other ship is irrelevant. Shipping wars can be long and tedious especially if a large group is involved. If someone's OTP is involved the war will most likely be longer and will be more like a flame war. If the same character is involved but each person ships them with a different character the war will be more hate filled and canon will be used a lot. If your ship has liittle to no canon backing it up you will most likely loose. Canon is an essential in a shipping war.

Let's say two people in the Attack on Titan fandom had a shipping war

Person A shipped Levi x Eren but Person B shipped Levi x Hanji. Because the character Levi is in both ships, conflict will arise. Person B would be at a canon advantage because there is more of a history and friendship with the characters. They could all so bring up canon examples of when the characters Levi Eren didn't get along. And if all fails bring in the factor of age, Eren only 15 while Levi is 34. Person A won't have really any canon to back them up so the best they could do is resort to fanart to either annoy or get Person B to at least understand their ship.

Shipping wars - slang

a war (normally online) started in order to prove that one ship is better than another one. normally, both of the ships are fairly popular and well-liked in the fandom. sometimes, there are 3-4 ships involved in the war, though there are normally only 2. these wars can get way more aggressive than they sound, and people can get seriously hurt online just for not shipping the same thing as someone else.

person #1: saimatsu is the best ship in v3
person #2: no lol it's saiouma
person #1: lmao no fuck off saiouma is toxic and cringe
person #2: nahhh saimatsu is forced you homophobic bitch
person #1: the fuck did you just call me you fujoshi??
person #2: i'm not a fujoshi lmaoaoaoao,, i'm just not homophobic
