I don't know why this is...but it is rare to find Xander fans who like Spike and vice versa.
Spander fans? :) I found this sentence so strange because I've met so many Xander fans who love Spike and the other way around, but almost most of them shipped them together.
The problem with Xander's character in a nutshell is the lack of interest by the writers. There are so many potential plotlines that were ignored and shrugged off regarding this character. What happened in The Pack was forgotten just as Jesse's death was forgotten - both being a potentially interesting storylines to tell about Xander. "Kick his ass" should have been dealt with in S3, but it was ignored just as Faith's attempted rape was ignored.
All and all, it just sucks being a Xander fan. *shakes head*
