That sort of behaviour makes me ashamed to share a fandom with these people. And at that point we hadn't even met Lauren's character, so we didn't know how bad Lori was or how poor Lauren's acting. And even so, being rude to her face like that is unforgivable.
The sad thing is that it's all the network's fault for the 'female McGarrett' and 'potential love interest for Steve' thing (and Lauren herself has said that she auditioned as 'love interest', apparently). They set her up for a fall.
I'm pretty sure it's not just us slashers who don't want a love interest on the team for Steve. It would interfere with the Steve/Danny dynamic which even guys like. A romantic interest 'on the side' doesn't hurt it; someone in the team would. I've seen enough male posters complaining about Lori to be sure it's not just us perverted fangirls who want Lori gone.
