I hate her. Let me elaborate - relatability. We're supposed to sympathise with her...because she's so rich and has Daddy problems? Because she's too God awful beautiful? Because her boyfriend wants to be friends with other girls? Yep. Piper, we all feel terrible when our boyfriends/girlfriends speak to anyone or about anyone but us! Our hearts ache for you when one dimensional Drew flirts with a guy you've known for less than 24 hours! We cheered you on as you claimed possession over Jason, despite him being confused and not knowing whether he wants you and him to be a thing!

¬.¬ I understand the whole 'tomboy Aphrodite' thing he was going for, but even just saying it, it was kinda hard for that idea not to turn bad. Umm, say aye if you did none of those things (AYE AYE AYE) No offense, but I think that this battle made it really clear that almost everyone hates Piper. She wins those battles cause Jason's standing there behind her throwing lightning. I do not understand your thinking as just about everyone here is a Piper hater. WHO'S WITH ME? HAZEL FOR THE WIN!!

I did NOT sympathise, feel teribble, ache for her, or cheer her on.*

Um, sarcasm. Learn to understand it please.
 * Well I was cheering for her to die, but I was not cheering for her and Jason to become a couple.

 I hate her.'    Did you notice that bit? My my, we have all become self-centered haven't we? Accept it someone voted for piper because they thought she would win, it's their opinion, you should learn to respect that, not to turn conversations into slagging off characters you don't like so please grow up and respect others. It's a disgrace to this website. I personally don't mind either of them so I think you should stop this if you have any decency.Thank you. Okay as there is no supporting post for Piper, I'll take her side.

You see, she has a lot of potential. Mind controlling via the voice, very useful. Even Kronos could use that. Charmspeak is definitely not a useless power. Medea showed that in the Lost Hero. Being persuasive is a very difficult talent, many great leaders would give anything for it.

Maybe Piper thinks she's too weak, maybe she is the Jasonmaniac, maybe people hate her a lot when she thought of Percy with disdain (Personally I felt she had mocking undertones for Percy in the MoA), BUT the last point is definitely not the reason Piper should lose. She is not shallow or conceited about her appearance (did you ever see Piper whining about her appearance during any of the fights?) or her lifestyle. It is just the way she thinks about her power, about how she lacks the drive to be a warrior or any characteristic trait which captures readers.

She has the potential, just that she doesn't believe in it, or else she would have been one of the most powerful demigods, right along Percy, Jason, Nico, Hazel and Frank.

Anyways, after writing the whole thing, I personally feel that Hazel should win and Piper to lose. She must be shown where her stupid place is. xD!!!!
