I don't think that will happen. The way Joss will ruin Spuffy is to have Buffy betray Spike as badly as Angel did her. Which may have already happened. Though I can imagine ways it could happen worse than it already has. That's the way the dynamic is heading, though. Every action has an equal and opposite reaction, after all.
I was very unhappy with the comics from about #25 onward. Dawn apologizing to her abuser Kenny was the first misstep in a long line of them, never mind the Twangel mess. I'd like to say it didn't affect my enjoyment of fandom, but it really, really did. I've found things in S8 to draw on for fic, but the new "canon" was a real suppressant for months. Even without S8, I've grown pickier about my Spuffy, probably just from being around for so long. With people like you turning out the good stuff, I imagine I'll be okay...
