	Damn, Lu! You beat me to it! But no, please don't take the HP wank away from F_W! It's not really that much. They just happen to be going through a wanky period right now. Anyway, we'll be left with only anime wank if that happens, and jeez, you need an advanced degree and five years invested in every single fandom to be able to understand any of that! ;-) (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

It's only dominated f_w the last week or so. These things come in cycles; we've gone a week before and never seen anything but anime wank, or else the LotR fandom is having some species of eruption, or Smallville goes through one of its periodic hissy-fits. I'm tired of the HP wank too, but this too shall pass, and I personally don't want to have to hit twenty different communities just to keep up with the panfandom wankery.

	I thought about it. But I'm lazy. Also, it seemed like a bad idea. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	psychofangirl 2003-10-28 06:19 am UTC (link)
	I myself don't have an intention to make such a community, because I tried that with fandom_songs (on livejournal) and realized it was a mistake to make such a division. It just worked with the MarySue community, so I thought it would work here because of the sheer size of this place. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Eh, we already have three different wank communities as it is. I like to be able to get all my fandoms in one stop, if that's okay. ^^ And HP has only been dominating it lately, really. Awhile ago it was Smallville that was hogging the wank lines for a week or so. Like someone said up there, it comes in cycles. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	wizzard 2003-10-28 07:00 am UTC (link)
	And now, even when the Smallville wank is good, nobody pays attention. I guess you can get burned out on wank from one fandom. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Speaking as an anime fan who knows Harry Potter as a skewed children's version of "The Books of Magic," I loves me Harry Potter wank. Don't have one friggin' clue beyond what's posted as a backstory, but that's what makes it so fun to mock! No vested interest!

And damn, if I don't want to see more Smallville wank here too. I know the CLex fans are up in arms and splooging after that recent lake scene...

	Considering the amount of HP wank that seems to come from convoluted ancient histories, I'd appreciate a website dedicated to untangling the timeline. Flow charts might work. And I'd definitely like to see the BNF's color coded according to alliance, possibly IRL too. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	Eh, since so many people are up in arms over the incomprehensibility of anime wank, maybe we need an anime_wank community? Why is anime wank so hard to understand compared to LotR wank or Smallville wank? (Reply to this)(Thread)

	I don't think it's so many people. It looks like just a few of us made a comment on it. And I'm not "up in arms." I just don't get it - mostly for the reasons that anon mentioned, plus I'm not an anime fan. I skip it - no big deal. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	phosfate 2003-10-28 04:42 pm UTC (link)
	A little bit of exposition when posting an anime wank would go a long, long way to make it more accessible to f_w readers. Just a small explanation of what the hell this show/game/J-popper/manga/game/Pocky flavor/shitajiki you're talking about is, for example. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	(Anonymous) 2003-10-28 06:19 pm UTC (link)
	Mainly because in HP or Smallville - even if you aren't in the fandom, you can form a slight idea about the characters and the fandom within a very small time. Where as in anime, the entire thing is very mind-boggling from an outsiders POV. (Reply to this)(Parent)

The only thing about the HP wank that irritates me is all the anon postings from the subjects of wank...

I'm here to be amused by the intelligent snarking, not but those who are trying to sway us to their side... I don't know about any of you but I really couldn't give a shit...

And then there's all the 'grow some balls and post who you are' comments, from the F_Wer's, when people aren't being flamey and are just adding a few innoccuous comments... Jesus... what are we turning into? The thought police?
