: BNFs declare "AU FICS ARE CRAP (EXCEPT FOR THE ONES I LIKE)!"
(
snacky: A mouse at
wank_report contributes wank from the Alias fandom. All instances of "my friend says.." are from the mouse, not any friends of mine. Okay, on with the wank: )
It's just a baby wank right now, but it's so cute!
Over at SD-1.net, the Fanfiction Pet Peeves Thread has become a breeding ground for wank. One can rail against those authors they hate but if pressed say that they're just making generalizations.
It starts out sane, people posting peeves about poor grammar, formating, WIP's, BNFs getting too big for their brithces, etc. Enter Krisnreine, and Aliasscape, who for reasons unknown to me seems to have it out for one of their fellow fanfic writers. BACKGROUND: the fanfiction they dislike is Show Me Heaven by Luna-Moon--who is quite obviously not a native English speaker. Scrolling through the reviews, Krisnreine seems very supportive at first but something seems to have happened since she posted that review in June of 2004 (my friend who pointed this wank out to me tells me it has to do with to rival Lena Olin sites (an actress on Alias) who apparently have been duking it out for some time) The fanfiction in question is AU, where the characters remain the same, but the setting is changed, in this case to the US Civil War.
( Now to the wank... )
