Current mood:*sporfle!*

While bumming around LJ looking for a good wank, I found one. At least I think I found one, this is my first time posting. Apparently the Queen of All that is Evil stole Hunnybunch's icon. Not about to let this rest, she vents on the Blinkilicious community where they proceed to bash (and wank) the Queen of All that is Evil into next year. (The funniest part seems to be that the Queen herself never shows up and they just wank on and on...and on about her.) Read all about it here.

Two things I enjoyed about this were the slow decent into "She's a fuckin loser!" and how they know what her real life is like. You know someone that knows her for real and she's a theif irl too huh? *pats the wanker*

check i_theft she's been a big topic around there for months. and hell, she's even made it to ljdrama.org

And yet she only made Fandom Wank with your help. More proof of how she's living off your creativity like an engorged leech (or at least an animated GIF of one). OMG ppl shes so mcuh wors then we thot!

The best part was the "OMG she's breaking copyright law I'm gonna sue her!" So cute.

Yeah, because the courts care deeply that Loser stole Double-Loser's twinkies, I mean, blinkies.

I'LL SUE, I'LL SUE!!! One of my peeps is a lawyer, yo. *g*

Sorry, couldn't resist the urge to mock the wankers. Anyway, I use this boomstick icon quite a lot on LJ and plan to use it a lot here, so if we had the exact same one it might cause some confusion. But feel free to make your own boomstick icon ;)

And thanks for askin' :)

*g* thanks. It was made for me after a friend and I had a conversation that mostly consisted of "THIS IS MY BOOMSTICK!!"

Heeee. Dude, love that movie so much. Actually, my .sig in another fandom, for various reasons, ended up being, "Good, bad, I'm the girl with the lightsaber." Bruuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuce. And I'll shut up now.

The Queen Herself also cares quite a lot. Since I mod an icon community, I've had her banned for quite some time as our members get testy when someone yoinks their stuff without permission (God only knows why - it IS the internet, people). I actually used this wank to ban two of her other screen names from the community. She responded pissily in my personal journal:

lol good post

imhappyn0w though is not an alias lol everyone knows about it cuz i switched over to it

what an asshole u are by the way lol

Is it just me, or do the lols seem disingenuous? ;) I responded by listing the community rules that she broke, to which she responded:

whatever

u believe everything you hear
anyways its not stealing , so what if i want to be a bitch and not credit people

life goes on , after all this is the internet

hopefully u can move on too =)

I have to admit that she has a point. But my mind still boggles over one fact: the person who writes like this? is 23.

Well, that's really two issues
[info]karmakaze
2003-09-30 05:25 pm UTC (link)
Issue #1 is, yes, not crediting icons is bitchy/not socially acceptable/whatever, but is hardly the end of the world.

Issue #2 is, when a community has clearly posted rules, you can expect to be banned if you don't follow them.

She's ok on Issue #1 (you can't make someone have good manners) but hasn't a leg to stand on on Issue #2.

I mean, if I was in a community which posted rules saying all posts must be in lemon yellow text on a lime green background with every third letter blinking, and I posted in some sort of legible fashion, I could expect to recieve censure for the offense. What I'd be doing in such a community, I have no idea...

That's frigthening. It seems to me that people would understand that anything they create and put out on the internet is at risk to be stolen. While I'm rather fond of my icons and I might be a bit miffed if someone stole one, like you said it's not the end of the world.

But I'm glad it helped you keep a potential wanker off your community.

*snerk* I'm one to talk, because my icons are nothing to look at--but why would anyone steal icons that ugly?

Wow. That's some prime wank.

You know, someone took my icon without asking a while back. I asked her if she'd mind taking it down, since I was fond of it. She did.

Obviously I was doing something wrong. Where are my three pages of wank?!
