Someone criticizing your fic on your personal journal? Call a mod!
Here's a very small but absolutely delightful fic wank courtesy of the mousies of wank_report. I will say now that, to the best of my knowledge, all involved are 18+, though not all of them had ages posted so I can't be sure.

ravenette2506 is am member of the small Alex Rider fandom (Alex Rider is apparently some teen spy book series I'd never heard of, but the wank is good anyways) and the yassen_alex community. She posts a fic of this pairing in her personal journal. frayer shows up to give some constructive criticism (or "concrit," apparently? You kids and your crazy portmanteaus). To paraphrase: "your fandom tends to do a lot worse but this isn't bad, oh and this line bugged me." A little harsh, perhaps, but not overly nasty. But it's on a personal journal, right? If the author objects they can just deal, delete, screen, whatever.

Or not.

revenette2506 throws up the Mod Signal to deal with the big meanie! abrandnewboom rides to the rescue from the yassen_alex comm to vanquish evil with passive aggressive smilies and ~*~sarcasm~*~! A small herd of teal deer rampage across the landscape, and vanish as quickly as they appeared!

The Dramatic Showdown!

SuperMod:Don't be mean to my fandom! You'll scare the ~~children~~ new writers! :)

Nefarious Dr. ConCrit: I'm not trying to scare...Hold on, SuperMod, I'm not in your comm! Easy on the power trip there!

SuperMod: We care about our members. Contribute to the fandom or STFU! :)

Nefarious Dr. ConCrit: Maybe we should just discuss this over e-mail, but I'll tell you why my criticism is good for your writers! At length!

SuperMod: "I'm sure we won't need to continue this via email. :)" Be nicer or I will punish you! Feel my ~~TILDES OF SARCASM~~!

Nefarious Dr. ConCrit: Now I'm supposed to be nicer?

Boy Fapper: I'll help you protect our tiny, tiny fandom, SuperMod! Not to gang up on you, but keep your your insulting negativity to yourself, evildoer!

Nefarious Dr. ConCrit: Ok, you are totally ganging up on me now. They asked for crit[icism?]!

~~Damsel in Distress~~Journal Owner: Of course I called SuperMod! We're a tiny fandom and our delicate fics need protecting from your meanness! Bye.

~*~FIN~*~

ETA: Bahleetion! Luckily, harumph has provided a cap for your entertainment. Also whoever linked them here is FAIL.

ETA deuce: OH NOES TEH HAXORS

ETA god my poor thesis: More cappage courtesy of _goblin_! And may I repeat: mousie who trolled the wank, you are a failure among failures. (Now with the original "concrit" courtesy of killer_gopher and sisterelwood)(AND MORE!)

ETA FOR FUCK'S SAKE IT'S ONLY BEEN LIKE TEN MINUTES SINCE THE LAST ONE: Not content to rank among the mousies, SuperMod has appeared to slaughter us all with his/her/its passive-aggressive smilies! :)

ETA of genuine interest: This shit's getting weird. OK, so, we had bahleetion, then some helpful mouse showed up with a link to a cap which turned out to be capped by Yaseanne and was promptly deleted. The twist?

The "helpful mouse's" IP

abrandnewboom's IP

Yaseanne's IP

So...either these two are in collusion to both keep the wank alive and try to act all superior about it being trolled or we've got some crazy-ass sockpuppetry and IP hiding going on. Yeah. I don't even fucking know.

ETA FTW: And this, ladies and gentlemen, is good modding. *salutes*

	Wait, is the LJ cap from the Mod???? It shows her name in the corner with logout info! Or am I reading that wrong? (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Holy shit you're right. I'm taking back my cheese now. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	killer_gopher 2009-04-11 04:20 am UTC (link)
	Okay...that is what I thought. You may want to keep a copy of this. I am thinking she didn't realize it showed her LJ user name. Though seriously, this Mod is full of awesome. Poor, poor fandom turning on each other. Brilliant. Oh wait, the ~~tildes and smiles make it better~~ (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

I'm smacking my forehead over here because I didn't notice that until you pointed it out. Here I thought we had an extra awesome mouse. And the even more brilliant thing is that that mod has an account over here (see some comments further up the page) but went to the trouble of logging out to post the screencap and then promptly forgot to edit out the bit where it shows she was logged in on LJ.

The stupid, it flows forth like a flowy thing.

	Oh shit! I didn't know she was over here, somehow that one slipped by me. I actually feel bad for pointing it out. I guess it equates to an honor among wankers sort of mentality. I'm guessing someone would have noticed eventually...and she's probably kicking herself right about now. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sisterelwood 2009-04-11 04:55 am UTC (link)
	You shouldn't. She's a wanker and now that we pointed out her fuck-up she's gone and gotten rid of the file. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	killer_gopher 2009-04-11 04:58 am UTC (link)
	Thank you, I feel much better! And I may have a copy, I hit save, but not sure how to load or anything. Gah. It's still up on my computer...let me attempt to figure out how to get the file. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sisterelwood 2009-04-11 04:59 am UTC (link)
	We eat our own. Also- YAY! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	killer_gopher 2009-04-11 06:04 am UTC (link)
	I put a link on page three. It was a word file, Vista issues ate the computer. Still, you can see the Mod's name clearly and it does have the entire exchange. Just a little bit of wonky formatting. Still, the stupid it burns. Also, I think the original author deleted her LJ completely. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	To open a saved file in your web browser, click "File" in the menu bar, then "Open", then locate your saved file. For screencaps, hit the print screen button (upper right-hand corner), then open MS Paint and hit Control-v. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	killer_gopher 2009-04-11 05:58 am UTC (link)
	I tried to do it, but Vista crashed on me. grumble I had it copied into memory and managed to put it in Word before the reboot. I put a link on the third page, hopefully it works. Thanks though, now I will know for next time! (Reply to this)(Parent)

	harumph 2009-04-11 04:51 am UTC (link)
	Do you have a copy of it? Mediafire is telling me it's an invalid file, but this sounds too awesome to miss! (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Wait, is the LJ cap from the Mod???? BAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!! Oh, Mod. ♥ (Reply to this)(Parent)

	sadly, that download was deleted by mediafire :( (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sisterelwood 2009-04-11 04:53 am UTC (link)
	WHAT?! Oh man. I had it on my computer, read it, and then deleted it. Dammit. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	angelofstrange 2009-04-11 04:56 am UTC (link)
	she probably deleted it when she realized it was fuckered up haha (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	sisterelwood 2009-04-11 05:07 am UTC (link)
	That's what I'm figuring as well. Ya know, it's not like there is a comment on the page with a link to the now deleted wank. Oh wait... (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	angelofstrange 2009-04-11 05:13 am UTC (link)
	hahaha right! and the mods already got to this post "Can't escape the screen caps" I love FW >.> (Reply to this)(Parent)
