Right now I like him better than Damon...and I never thought that this gonna happen like EVER. I remember when Stefan was my least fave character of TVD...

I thought I would love Ripper!Stefan, but I was wrong. He's not even a ''ripper'' tbh, he's just a douche.

He isn't a ripper, he's just being a vampire. But besides that, I love watching Paul Wesley playing "vampire" Stefan. I like that the show's exploring that side of him, as well as it has explored his good side. Though I'd love to see Damon's badassness (is that even a word?xD) again soon (Damon is still awesome, but you get my point, hopefully).

I agree @manonx:) i like this Stefan alot better than the old one. I think he suits evil more than good, when he is good he has nothing else. Unlike Damon who can be good yet still be badass. I kind of like the way roles are now, I just wanna see more badass Damon scenes, because i feel like the writers are trying to make Stefan steal his thunder in that aspect. Though i dont think its working,for me its:
Good!Damon
Bad!Damon
Bad!Stefan
Good!Stefan

im sorry! i should like rippah stefan, i know that!, but...I JUST CAN'T get into him!! whenever he comes on screen, i find myself trying not to drift off from shere BORDEM!!!! good or bad?, he just DOESN'T do it for me im afraid!! to me he is now, even more of a douche than he was when he was his good saintly self. maybe you all like him, but me...NO SORRY, HE JUST TOTALLY LACKS THAT DAMON LIKE PERSONALITY!! just my opinion. i guess im just not that into goldenboy saints who like to hide who they really are.

TEAM DAMON ALL THE WAY!!!!

HAHA! And he's AWESOMEEE! :D

But apart from that I liked the old Stefan better.

I like Stefan this way, the old Stefan was boring! :P

i think u mean FAKE rippah stefan, all summer all we ever read is that we r going to see a very brutle rippah stefan,i was so excited and then came 3x01 and it was great until in the end of the episode when he called elena and was all "sad" blah blah....

and since that moment the writers have failed misrabley showing stefan as rippah, i mean in every episode they had to show that he still had his humanity and that he still good blah...blah....

i didn't i can hate stefan even more but i hate him now more than ever because of his fake rippah thing everone is giving him a pass for ripping people's head off,for treating elena like crap.all the fans escpially the stelena fans say "but he was compalled to that" or "what he did is awfal but he did it so save damon" or "it's damon's fault that he went rippah"

so yeah i hate more than ever + he's just a sorry excuse of a bad roppoff of damon

he was so so so BORING when he was good, I love him BAD!!!!!!!!

But he gets annoying sometimes. But, I'm with Katherine, I liked the old Stefan better.

I'm sorry I don't like him like this at all. I never thought he was boring before. I don't like him this way because he is an ass and doesn't care about anyone. That is the demon side of him. Not the Stefan side. He is letting the Vampire take over. When he was human he was a great person. And in tonight's episode he almost killed Elena without really caring. He kinda thought about it, but didn't care. All he wants is to piss off Klaus. He needs to get over it. How is getting back at Klaus for ruining his relationship with Elena, doing any good, when all he is doing is hurting Elena more.

This.
