The Paradoxers' Tale
Prologue:
A little background, [info]fandom_wank, and then we can proceed
The Paradoxers are a clan that ship Sheldon/Penny
The show
Big Bang Theory is what these characters are on
Bill Prady is a writer there; that's your
sine qua non.

In lj's [info]sheldon_penny, a mod post there is made
Concerning their show's writer and the tweets he has forbade
He does not want to be scared off by "@replies," you see
So please don't send him links to fic or he'll be forced to flee.

The general consensus first is one of agitation:
"Let's not be dicks and send him fics; we need some separation.
Who could send something like this? Who'd do something so odd?"
Imagine, then, the comm's surprise: turns out it was a mod!

She says Bill Prady asked for it but it's not very clear
(One dedicated mousy capped before it disappeared)
Upon this revelation, some members backpedal fast
And others simply quiet down - you think this calm will last?

Epilogue:
The anonymice on [info]wank_report are those you should be thanking
They provided links and caps while they engaged in some more wanking.


Continued!
An ETA's in order, folks - there's been a change in wank
It seems these Sheldon/Penny shippers have really raised a... stank.
[info]arabian has tweeted* that she's stepping down as mod
And at new comm [info]spanon no mousy seems slack-jawed.

*thanks to [info]galletas for the cap. I don't think I could shoehorn your name into a rhyme even if I tried.

Reminder: Don't troll the wank. Lurkers, I'd much prefer it if you'd support me in email.

I wonder how long this little window when fans can interact directly with producers, actors, etc. will last. I keep feeling like it's not going to end well at all.

This reminds me of when Eli Roth first found Inglorious Basterds fic on LJ. That was... not good. LOL, Blueberries.

Before I read the wank report I thought that this might be the action of a fandom newbie - someone who really didn't get why sending fanfic to the writers is such a big no go area. That I could understand. But when you have been in fandom for a while - you really should know better.

It really does make me laugh at how TPTB react to fanfic...hello, actors, writers, directors, etcetera from all kinds of fandoms have admitted to reading fanfic. Mostly it's been laughs because they read the UBER BAD fic first, but still. They are only human. My guess is they do read fanfic, but they like to shoot us while we're already down and say 'omg don't do it or I'll act like a baby and run away' so that they can do more damage than they already have.

Because these kinds of 'requests' only ever seem to come out when ships I'm in are getting dissed by TPTB (be it writers, producers, actors, whatever).

I don't see what the big fuss is about. *shrugs* And no, I did not send them fic link lol I don't even follow Brady.....why would I follow someone who dismisses the most amazingly awesome "non" ship of all time?


Oh, rabid Sheldon/Penny shippers, how you amuse me. I've never seen such a big amount of delusional and entitled fanbrats since the Harmonians.

But yeah, you keep on with that. I admire your passion for forcing the writers into pairing the characters you want, regardless if one of said characters has repeteadly stated he despises human intimacy.

Sheldon? Isn't he...disinterested in girls and sex altogether? I don't watch the show regularly, but that's the vibe I get from him.

In short: FAIL, mod and an A++ for the awesome write-up.

She says he asked, but if mousie's screencap (http://i43.tinypic.com/2hozs41.png) has all the context needed, where in the exchange does he ask her? All he asked was "What's not cool?" Her response was a freakin' offer. Also, did she not think that, if the fic wasn't hers, then she placed the writer in legal hot water? Cuz the producer could've been all "C&D C&D C&D!" on them.

The backpedalers are lulzy. I bet some of them are engaging in meta over at [info]wank_report.

Is this the mod's only fandom? O wait, it's not. D= Wth.

I'm probably the only one that, upon seeing "Sheldon/Penny," thought these people were somehow shipping Sheldon and Penny Arcade at first, right?

Yeah that's what I thought.

Awesome writeup!

I'm only about a fourth of the way through Season 2, but from here it seems Sheldon barely understands friendship. What would he want with a romance?

I mean, sure, ship what you want, but don't be an entitled ass about it.

Love the write-up!

Yeeeeeeah! I've been looking forward to the day Sheldon/Penny would be wanked. It seems like a lot of wank has been flying under my radar in that comm, at least according to the spanon meme.

And awesome wank write-up!
