	Well, I still think it's funny. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	lizardlaugh 2003-12-24 02:24 pm UTC (link)
	oh sure, it's all fun and games until someone gets called a twat... It was a fun idea, definately better than the OTHER trolls, and obviously a joke. It does, however, have the potential to get nasty. At least watchful_entity brought the fandom together in an orgy of mayhem, smut, iconage and t00by love. tear (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	AJ Hall is a big girl. I'm sure she can deal with being called a twat. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Well, we've certainly called her a wanker (or at least called her on wanking) often enough, and she couldn't deal with that. ;) (Reply to this)(Parent)

	No, nothing like that, the only nastiness is in the form of blunt comments in the votes. Pretty tame if you ask me. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	There were a few that were just kinda mean spirited. I think if you are going to insult people, you should, you know, not hide behind anonymous commenting. Flame out in the open so people can take sides and kiss the appropriate ass. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Flame out in the open so people can take sides and kiss the appropriate ass. {chuckle} True words. Although, part of the humour of this journal is lost on me because I don't recognize most of the names nor why they're supposedly a BNF. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	lizardlaugh 2003-12-24 08:42 pm UTC (link)
	Me neither, but: BNFness is a tricky thing. We've selected these fen based on their fandom currency as writers, artists, archivists, betas, whiny hangers-on, or essayists. Naturally no deathmatch will be fair or equal. shrugs (Reply to this)(Parent)

This has been brewing for a while now, methinks. At least somebody took up the idea and did something about it.

Don't worry, I'm voting for you,

heidi8 and flourish to come out alive. I can't let any of you lose. I loff you too much.

And ugly? Who said anything about ugly? This is actually quite entertaining. I'm just waiting for Cassie's fight. That ought to be an interesting fangirl fight.

Mama, just killed a (wo)man!

When I went to bed ~~last night~~ this morning, the last few posts up had kind of a mean spirited feel to them. On the whole, people really have been pretty good sports. Talking smack about people anonymously strikes me as rather cowardly though.

Pssst! Don't forget to vote for me. I am not above bribery. And cheating. Just don't call me any mean names. I might cry.

	The only person on my f'list scheduled to fight that I'd vote against is Cassie, but only becausae that wank is unoriginal. I'm just getting tired of Cassie-wank. Give me something new. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

You know... since joining the fandom, I haven't actually seen her do anything particularly wanky. It's like wank happens around her, but Cassie herself doesn't seem to be so bad. Then again, I haven't been in the fandom very long so I could be totally off and Cassie is really TEH EVAL.

I wouldn't call myself a Cassie fangirl -- I don't even have her friended on LJ. However, I am not ashamed to admit that I thoroughly enjoy the Draco Trilogy. How much of the Cassie hate is deserved, and how much is backlash? It's like the 'in' thing to bash her and her fic. Well, I haven't seen her do anything particularly heinous and I like her fic. *shrug*

	Icon! XD Ahahahaha... leaving Schoen alone with manga is teh bad Dude. We should go down the charts rolling dice to see which weapons each BNF gets! :D Hell, I'll go make up a chart right now! ^^ runs off to do so (Reply to this)(Parent)

	And (gosh, I wasn't surprised to see this one coming when I realised that the voting had me, Adolfa, Taricorim and Malfoypatriarch in it) meghanjinx arrives to spooge all over the place here and here. She has a persecution complex. Anonymous people come out of the woodwork to taunt her. Even overlooking what past history I have with her (not much, yay!) she's sorta asked for it. (Reply to this)

	And once again, I am thankful that the only area in which I could even vaguely be considered a BNF is Rare Slash Fandom, which isn't really a fandom as such. Wheee! :D Although it'd be cool to duke it out with my friends. TO THE DEATH! (Ahem. Little Melliekins should not post after too much alcohol.) (Reply to this)
