: AFF admin drama
Grabbed this from wank_report, with only some minor editing.
Finally, the expected adultfanfiction.net wank is breaking out.
Little history, in short: owner of AFF went AWOL. Four head mods take over. Owner returns, after six months of incommunicado, and takes back the archive. Four head mods quit. Owner Jaxxy complains site has been 'hijacked' by them. Surprisingly, all stays quiet (relative non-wankiness apparently helped by owner's delete button and friendslocks on LJ).
You may remember this from a fandom_lounge post.
You will be seeing some angry posts and claims from perhaps many people in the near future -- even rumors that AdultFanFiction.net is moving or being mass-abandoned by Members! I know this because a few attacks have already been deleted from this very site (even the News Post area, here).
Rest assured that I and your remaining faithful Staff am going to do everything to ensure the site's health that we always have. Please do not let the current rash of mayhem ruin your visits to AdultFanFiction.net, or fear for its future. After all, we've re-secured all this for the (presently) 64,528 Authors and Members of this site -- not ourselves. As ugly as this job is on this day, I personally cannot let the softness of my heart subject AdultFanFiction.net's members to potentially illegal actions by its Staff.
( But now the other shoe has dropped )
ETA: Is anyone still here? Anyway, here's a journal chronicling the events, and with a full list of resignations.
