Sweet googly-moogly.

Makes me wonder why the poor board denizens don't just band together and start a different, less rabidly psychotic board of their own. That's the craziest, most insane shit I've seen in *ages*. And they put up with that? And even react with "oh, please don't say that, we really loooove you"? Yoinks!

It's the great circle-jerk of wank! Wait, no, I think that might be an oxymoron...

Reminds me of the bitchfit the artist of Venus Envy pitched on her boards recently because, in a recent storyline where it's shown that the comic's main character was raped several years ago (which would have been dramatic and all, if it wasn't so plain that it was just typical "easy" dramangst), and because she left some things unclear, some of the forumers were discussing whether the character was actually penetrated or not.
She did the typical "You all make me sick! I hate you! You don't deserve my comics!" stuff, and fourteen out of fifteen forumers were instantly reduced to simpering masses of "Oh, we're sorry, we're sorry, it wasn't ME, it was THOSE sucky people, oh how they suck!"
I might have a teense of sympathy and understanding for the artist, if it wasn't so obvious that she desperately, DESPERATELY wants to be just like the big-name webcomicers, and imitates them at every opportunity.

	Ah, I'm glad I dropped out of the V.E. fandom before it degenerated any further. And why rape? There was more than enough drama without rape. >. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

Because, like I said, it's the easiest dramangst to just drop in. You can have it occur anytime in the past you want, and it's still all angstful and dramatic.
Nevermind that Alex/Zoe has shown ZERO in the manner of a rape victim, up until she started on this storyline. I mean, yeah, I'm no expert on rape victims, but the way she's got no reservations about being intimate with others aside from them finding out she's still a he kinda does not shout "OMG traumatized!" to me.

	Well, devil's advocate in me says that not all people react even similarly to others when traumatized. That said, if Zoe's just suddenly becoming the rape victim archetype I think I want to vomit. (Reply to this)(Parent)

What the fuck is this woman's problem? Scary shit.

Well, I am sorry, but after all the crap I got for the Christmas colors, this was the final straw. I wanted it to be cheery and bright so that when I came to this board, I, personally would be reminded of happiness, and hope for the new year. New Year's Colors are generally bright and cheery. I didn't put a note on the board about the changing of the colors, because of the crap I got the last time for them, and I honestly didn't get around to it. It was only going to be for seven days, and instead, all I got was piles of sarcasm for trying to share some hope and cheer with you all, who seem to like funeral colors. I have seen too many funeral colors lately, so honestly I didn't want to see them again.

Does she really think a color scheme on a website creates happiness and hope? And why does she normally have the board decked out in "funeral colors" anyway? I don't think that fandom is really the best place for her.

But she'd probably go BALLISTIC if she saw these threads about her. Man, I would love to see that. Volunteers?

	That one chick, Janeway, is on the right track. Shame she's on her own, there. I'd join in, but I'm sure her 'sister' (aka 'sockpuppet') would then be unleashed in order to be unwholesomely abusive in reply. (Reply to this)(Parent)

Jesus God in a paisley Volkswagen, how did I miss this wank before? What a train wreck that woman is! I thought I overreacted to criticism, but I bow before the master.

I'm almost tempted to think that nobody can actually be that much of a screaming air raid siren of overreactiveness, but then I think of some people in the LotR fandom, and yeah. Boggles the mind that they can get through life without a constant attendant with Thorazine and a drool cup, but it's apparently possible.

Good grief, that woman is pathetic. Honestly. The last time I saw someone do quite that much self-obsessed, dummy-spitting flouncing, I was babysitting a three year old.

Are those other posters there actually real people? If they were an army of sockpuppets I'd understand the huggles'n'puppies and 'we wuv u' stuff, but seriously? The woman throws a hissy fit because people say colours are bright, and it's 'Oh, smite us for we have offended'?

Please.

Finally got around to reading the whole thread, and O to the M to the G.

That was such an innocuous little comment to start the thread, and it just goes KERPOW. Granted, maybe there are "piles of sarcasm" ...somewhere else..., but uh... would a simple "I like this scheme, and it's only for a few days; chill" hurt that badly? She'd save that whole "My life is torment and YOU KEEP! TWISTING! THE KNIFE!!" routine.

This may be my favorite returning guest star on FW, though. Not sure why. High drama and so many attempted guilt trips that she should be getting frequent-flyer miles.

Favorite part:

>>Friends in a community also have a tendency of asking before making slightly hurtful sarcastic remarks. >>

Uh... what?

"Hey, d'you mind if I make a slightly hurtful sarcastic remark?"

"Why, not at all, my friend."

"Okay. Now brace yourself. ... Man, that's a really uh, witty sig, with the... pithy sayings and the... being really long and stuff."

"...

Is that all?"

"Yeah, that's all. Thanks."

"Anytime."

Does F_W have 'Best of' awards? She'd win probably half of them on the basis of these outbursts alone... :P

But yet, she goes right ahead and does it herself without asking! Er... double standard, anyone?
