12:58am: GET OUT NOW!!
(Moved from [info]otf_wank.)

I'm surprised there isn't more World of Warcraft wank here. I guess all that stays in their forums - in the cesspool.

Unfortunately the bit of wank I have for you here is incomplete. I had to leave for the evening, and when I'd come back it had been deleted. Despite this, I thought it was still worth sharing. I took screencaps of the entire second page - which was all I could get to with my back button - and that has most of it. I believe it only just got into the third page when it was removed.

ETA: This was actually in the Suggestions forum.

The first post basically went like this - the OP urged everyone to quit World of Warcraft while they could, before it became an addiction they couldn't get away from. She linked or quoted from some site that had said that 40% of WoW players are addicted. 40%!! (Am I in that 40%...?)

Apparently this offended one of the player mods. (I guess we can call them Greens? If Blizzard GMs are "Blue." They're the forum's version of a hall monitor, which is why he gets the green text and the animated ravasaur icon.) Anyway, most of it is them bickering back and forth with a few others thrown in.

Here's the second page of comments in its entirety. I apologize for not being able to offer you the first one.

part 1, part 2, part 3, part 4, part 5, part 6, part 7, part 8, part 9, part 10, part 11, part 12, part 13, part 14, part 15, part 16

WoW is a drug, people. A DRUG.
12:25pm: Nobody expects the m/m Inquisition!

This was brought to my attention via my flist on LJ:

Romantic Times Book Reviews publisher Carol Stacey has an inquiry about m/m erotic romances:

Is this really a turn on for women and a "growing" market? I have been resistant to review them in Romantic Times BOOKreviews because I do not feel we have many readers who want this type of book. I would love your input on this in a poll I have created. [Note: You have to be registered to vote]

Cue ten pages of very polite wank in the poll forum. Well mostly polite. It gets juicier the longer it brews.

Highlights:

As the "love them" option soon takes the lead in the poll accusations of trolls, shenanigans, conspiracy and sockpuppetry fly in the direction of the posting m/m lovers. OMG!!! It's the intrawebs and it's trying to push its gay m/m agenda!11!

And fun is had by all.

Hey, did I mention this is my first wank report? *runs away*
