12:04am: Big brother is wanking you. And your traced art.
Meet Kiminess, an artist with a bit of a following on several popular art sharing sites. Around May of 2005, she was banned from Y!Gallery for flaming mods several times after they removed her art for policy violations. Apparently, Kiminess likes to trace over art from shota manga and claim it as her own. While this might be allowed at DA, it is highly frowned upon at Y!Gallery (An example of this can be seen in this picture of hers in comparison to this yaoi manga cover. Thanks [info]sheep!). In late December of 2006, Y!Gallery 'forgave' certain banned persons, and among those allowed to return was Kiminess.

Fast forward to today. Kiminess again has art removed for tracing on Y!Gallery. As any respectable arteest would do, she writes an angry rant in her DeviantArt journal about what a jerkface Snover (Y!Gallery's founder) is.

Barely readable wanking behind this cut. )

Well, sure enough, today she was banned for a second time from Y!Gallery (eta: You may need a Y!Gallery account to view this). Needless to say she had a few things to say about that. "I know DeviantART kids may be kinda retarded and immature at times, but at least it's all fun and games and not a bunch of Nazis that banhammer you if you say something out of line or forget to cite sources or something. Oo;;;"

She also felt the need to post about the banning on her FurAffinity account as well. "To make a long story short, they think I dramatize too much and I think they're Big Brother. O_o;" When asked by another user there to stop throwing comparisons to Nazis around, her response is as eloquent as can be expected: "Okay, Big Brother and his Thought Police. I could care less that they banned me, it's just the way they're going about it and hounding and just being overall cruel and rude when they're SUPPOSED to be administrators of a site. Just goes to show that they're nothing more then children, too."

There's a whole lotta anger in that there wank. (Moved over from C_W by request.)

ETA: Aaaaand some genius decided to link her to this wank on the front of her DA page. So I've taken screenshots in case of bahleetion. Just let me know if it happens and I'll post them.

ETA 2: Ooh! She hid their message from public view. Intriguing.

ETA 3: As expected, FA and DA journals have been deleted. Luckily I have screengrabs of all entries here.
7:11pm: Lonelygirl15 is a fictional YouTube blogger turned multi-character interactive fandom. OpAphid is the ARG (Alternate Reality Game) dimension of the story, where fans get to solve clues, pick up 'drops' and decode files by working together.

Only it seems that's not strictly true. After allegations that the PM (Puppet Master, or guy in charge of the ARG) offered answers to puzzles in return for nude pictures of female players and spied on private player chats, players are up in arms. Cue allegations of underage porn and crimes of a sexual nature, predictions of forum doom, and confessions and rebuffals. And won't someone think of the children?

Then the PM gets fired and people start worrying about the game again. Besides, it's all her fault, anyway.

Now it's spilling out into the rest of the forum with threads defending the PM, posting the chat logs (and bahleeting them again), and semi-anonymously complaining about everything.

With a link to the main thread posted on the front page of LG15 expect more to come!
