1:06AM - Temp bans from FF.net?
Anyone have any experience with getting banned from Fanfiction.net? A friend just noticed this message on someone's profile and it seems... odd.

Is this really what happens when FF.net temp-bans someone? I've never seen it happen, so it's entirely possible, but something about it just seems off to me. All the user's content is still available, nothing's been censored or removed, and the simple plain-text message doesn't seem like the sort of thing a major site would throw up for a ban. ("Fanfiction administrators?" Not Fanfiction.net?) Plus, the person wrote in their blog "I'm still banned from Fanfiction" as if it's been going on a while, but my friend's pretty sure the ban message wasn't on their profile earlier today. Hm.
Anyway, just wondering if anyone's seen anybody else banned this way.
4:32PM - Alan Rickman' voice has a thriving fanbase, yes?
Wow. I totally agree with all sentiments in the comments.
Will you come to my dorm, Alan, and read me a bedtime story? :]
7:27PM - I'm not sure what to call it, but I know it's definitely funny.
Screencaps from Batman: The Movie with captions from Frank Miller's The Dark Knight Returns.
And by Batman: The Movie, I mean the classic one with Adam West, Burt Ward, Cesar Romero, Lee Merriwether and the rest.
8:06PM - Radiohead
Driving home tonight, I sincerely regretted having let my time on the Radiohead message board lapse, because gods only know what their reaction to this was.

If you listen, essentially, Radiohead are releasing their newest album online for whatever price you want. Free, $1,000, whatever. Go ahead and name your price. The official hard copy comes out late this year, with a hefty price tag, but no label intervention.
I am all a-twitter at the concept and the possibilities.
8:10PM
I'm not sure if this post is out of line, and I thought about using the wankcraft community, but it's not so active and I thought I might have more luck here. Let me know if I need to move this or anything. That I wasn't sure if it was only for that one guild or not, so...
I'm looking to hook up with some RPers on the feathermoon server. Both alliance and hordeside. I love Rping, but seldom get a chance because my RPing friends aren't online and available when I am, and visa versa. It's really hard to just jump in on, too.
So... ideas?
I realize that there are probably several wow-based posts somewhere in this comm's history, but I don't think any have been made recently so there's no guarantee anyone would still be playing on that server/with those characters/at all. I'm looking for something more current.
Also, shot in the dark: does anybody know what the song that comes with the teaser for the new ABC show Cane is from? It sounds like a Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds song, but I don't recognize it...
