2:48pm: This may actually be a first.
So we're used to wanky communities around here, F!S, brps, any and every twilight comm, etc, but this might be the first instance of a community that is nothing but wank.

No, really.

What the hell is this nonsense? A mouse in [info]wank_report explains:

"Pissed RPers make insanejournal community as revenge against the roleplayer known as "Nijhia" who plays albinos, pedophiles but not homosexuals, stalks players on AIM, and every other no-no out there. The drama only gets better by the day."

Thank you, mousie! Now back to our newsdesk.

Highlights include: The person in question selling their usernames (s/he's using "lethifold" here)

People trying to call it silly, but all I hear is "fap fap fap". Of course, this sort of thing comes off as bothersome to the community regulars.

Finally, is bold the new ~*~?

100% wank. No content. No meaningful point. Just empty grudge and the furious waving of tiny, tiny fists. Enjoy.

edited to bisect a gender pronoun

ETA: perhaps I should quickly clarify, I know none of the individuals or RPs involved. I've tried to portray both sides as ridiculous, and if I've failed in that I'll just take the unsubtle route and tell you now: they all look ridiculous.

ETA 2: Well, the WTF just got WTFer. [info]oh_envy has discovered that there are actually five communities dedicated to this purpose.

Also, for those that haven't noticed, Nij has stopped by to say "hi" and be surprised that we're mean. Yep, still raptors raised by hyenas around here.
9:10pm: Anime dubs: they're like cocktail umbrellas, in a way
Yesterday, AnimeNewsNetwork posted a news blurb stating that ADV would soon be releasing Princess Resurrection and Clannad in half-season sets with a low price point. (Usual MO is 5-6 individual DVD releases, aka "singles.")

There was much rejoicing and congratulations of ADV's new strategy, not only at ANN but also the formerly AnimeonDVD and now Mania boards. A few troublemakers tried complaining about the lack of singles and ADV's packaging, but were quickly silenced.

'Hurrah!' cried the fans. )

Unfortunately, trouble was brewing...

Dragoon: this does make me concerned, how they are putting this out... could it be a sub-only release? Things have been very quiet among ADV production circles....

Alas, Dragoon's suspicion is soon proven correct. Clannad (and Princess Resurrection) will be sub-only! After some brief attempts on both boards to write it off as a mistake, the wailing and gnashing of teeth sets in, accompanied by accusations, tortured metaphors, links to ADV's online feedback form, and backseat theoretical anime production.

Dubs are serious business at AoD. )

ANN takes a break from the usual loli wank to chime in too. )
