Ohh noes!
Toshirodragon has been banned from the bjd forum Den of Angels for "exessive rudeness"

What triggered the ban was comment since lost(unless I can find caps) the gist of which treated anyone who buys decent clothing for their expensive dolls who freaked out if people breathed on the dolls as snobs and elitist. Full of hyperbole and exaggeration.

People objected to the labels

April: Hmmm... no one likes to be labeled! I'm older and I like to buy fancy outfits. I don't have a fit about people touching or holding my dolls at all--unless they're all grabby-hands and clumsy or messy!

I have made clothes for my dolls before--but I'm not great at sewing and I don't have a sewing machine--so that limits things. Besides--it always ends up WAY more expensive when I try and make stuff myself--buying all the supplies and materials. Seriously! I've ended up spending way more than if I'd just gone out and bought or commissioned stuff on the few times I've tried doing it all myself. (It's dangerous going into Michael's and JoAnn's... !)

I don't mind hanging about with people of whatever age, anyway. I'm used to hanging with young and old!

Totally agree, April. Generalizations make me

Right now, my boys are dressed in a variety of outfits ranging from expensive through to casual stuff which cost a fraction of the price of the fancier outfits.

I would love to make some outfits, but it would be a huge learning curve for me since sewing was about my worst subject in school

Then there's also the fact that, although I have a sewing machine, materials and the desire, what I sorely lack is time. There's my full-time job, a house to keep organised and clean and there's also the fact that dolls are not my only hobby, so time is at a premium for me. Even when I take my holidays and promise myself that this time I will fit in some sewing, it never happens that way I do live in hope, though.</i>

Toshirodragon's response was to edit her original comment to say. I apologize to everyone I have offended. I will go out and sell my dolls now, cut my wrists, shave my head and join a nunnery.

NOW will you be satisfied....

Oh and I unsubscribed from this thread so all you histrionics were unnecessary. And thanks for the tattling, adults REALLY do do that better than children.


and added a new post
Oh whatever people... my god I made an off hand comment designed to put one person's fears of being the oldest in the crowd to rest and a few people act like I blew snot on your favorite outfits.

Buy frickin Dollheart I DONT CARE! But I will say that of the collectors I've come in contact with the ones who DONT buy Dollheart have been the funnest to hang with.

Now I'm going to bed.


The banhammer fell shortly after that.

Toshirodragon then took it to LJ on her doll community Red_shoelacers

Ohh noes! Full of her own perceived superiority and persecution complex, referencing other fights she's had with people in the past. Snacky's law violation. And plans to get around the ban link

They're dolls people. Really, really pretty and expensive dolls, yes, but sheesh! Talk about taking something too serious.

This wank gets very odd if you initially misread bjd as b&d and proceed all the way through with that mindset.

Thanks but it was coming. I'm too headstrong to really function well under that restrictive of moderating.

"I mean, really, my dear, we all knew this was coming. I'm too delightfully droll for their website. I daresay they're just jealous. Still, it's all so very tiresome, don't you think?"

Okay, so I have a membership over at DoA, even if I'm not very active, and the name sounded familiar, so I decided to google them. The first hit I got on the forums was her jumping someone else's shit for speculating about modding something, so yeah, I guess it was coming.

I mean, I think the DoA mods seem to go a little overboard sometimes, but she sounds like a genuine case of Repetative Asshattitude Disorder.

To get an idea of what sort of are dolls involved in this kerfluffle, I clicked on the red_shoelacers link (since you apparently need an account of the DoA site to view threads(?)), and scrolled down until I hit a picture.

And when I did, it startled me so much I yelled, "Dah!" and hit the back button. ^^; It might be the caffeine, but dolls like those are a bit off-putting when you don't expect them.

but wait i didn't know dollheart was elite! WHAT ABOUT THE VOLKS/PEOPLE FASHION DESIGN COMPANIES LIMITED STUFF????? I thought that's who is supposed to be picked on for elite snobbery in the BJD fandom. i'm confused, mommy!

I've been watching this unfold on Den of Demons (like the [info]fandom_wank of doll boards, in a way, actually) and I didn't expect to see it here.

Toshirodragon's such an incredible case of Not Getting It ('it' being pretty much everything); this wank doesn't even scrap the surface of the nasty things she's done in the past, which is probably good, because we'd be here all day and most of tomorrow.

I've had a recurring nightmare about dolls since I was six. They hide in my closet, slowly open the door then stiff-arm march to my bed so they can trap my soul and eat my body in thousands of little tiny bites. And no, I never think to run away.

I'm not going to bed tonight.
