Mini Fiction Alley Wank
[info]minerva_fan gets excited and inquires about a fic by [info]walpurgis01 . The post consists of what the Fiction Alley moderators call a one-liner. Fiction Alley Moderator(and HP BNF ) [info]slytherincess warns her about using only one line in a post.

[info]minerva_fan feels wronged and decides to protest the warning and declare the Moderator incomparable to her "Darling Gwen".

[info]slytherincess responds. So does [info]gwendolyngrace. Not sure how warnings and all that work at Fiction Alley, but it doesn't sound like it's the big deal [info]minerva_fan seems to be making it out to be.

It's a funny little wank. The comments helped me kill half an hour or so of time I should have been spending on homework. Oh well.

Wank on HP fandom!

That's why I called it a mini wank. Although, the comments even made my girlffriend laugh and she's totally not into fandom. Take from it what you can get.

You're right. It's not particularly wanky. Perhaps Sporkify thought so, because I mentioned it under a filtered post on LJ (which would mean, I would guess, that Sporkify is someone on my LJ f-list). I filtered it because even though it's my LJ and I have the right to bitch if I want to, I kind of felt that it would be inappropriate for me to discuss something that arose from FA business in a totally public forum.

Funny how the first filtered post I've ever made on my personal LJ is f_w'ed within two hours of my posting it. Gotta give props for chuztpah.

Double fucking standard when it comes to FA. Seriously. And Sporkify wasn't even wanking on the FA mod. He was wanking on the fuckwit who publically posted the rant.

I think a wonderful solution for this would be to get the fuck off of FA. You're supposed to count the number of characters in every single reply? Just... gah.

[info]slytherincess
2004-03-11 11:32 pm UTC (link)
Character count is one thing we use in determining whether a post qualifies as a one-liner -- just one thing. When I'm modding at FA, I just know a one-liner when I see it; however, the poster questioned my judgement, so yes I had to actually open up MS Word and count the characters in order to demonstrate the point to her.

I think the wank is coming from minerva_fan and her friends who are all lining up saying how much a bitch slytherincess is and how much she sucks as a mod. slytherincess was not being bitchy or wanky IMHO. I thought it was hilarious when she said they can call her McBitch. Apparently they call the other mod McGwen as a sign of affection because it is a McGonagall thread?

What I am beginning to find wanky is how whenever a wank remotely involves FAP how the mods rush in to say how bored they are or how the wank is old. Please. I don't think the original poster was implying that slytherincess was being wanky at all.

Wow, what a silly wanker.

FAP wank is crazy repetitive, but I think all HP wank is pretty fucking repetitive. It's kind of a circlejerk that way. We're always hearing about the same things.

I dunno, I thought it was good wank. Maybe you have to be outside of the HP fandom to appreciate it?

Anyway, I liked "Gwen's" response:

Minerva. This is your "darling" McGwen, saying: Get over it.

Ooooh, Teh Slapdown!

And, sorry, but I have no sympathy for site owners howling "Bandwidth!" every other second. If you can't handle the load and all the annoyances that come with it, close up the shop.

Or, at least let the customers in a few at a time. JMHO.

Well, I thought it was mildly amusing, at least in the comments. The OP's friend, mcmousiesomething, was just adorably wanky. Her reply to the bleedingly obvious troll was classic:

As for trying to insult her by saying that she has shit for brains, well, first of all that is not possible, if she had shit for brains she would not be alive, and therefore not be able to post at all. Secondly, (that means next, in case you did not know) at least in her complaints she did not use words that are not even in the dictionary. (In case you did not know, I am referring to fuckwit)

Heh! C'mon, that's good stuff.

I'm also enjoying watching all the FA mods tell us it's not wanky. Even if the subject isn't very wanky, them telling us so is wanky. In a weird sort of circle jerk way.

If the wankers wank the wank and then more wankers come to wank the wank that was wanked and then get wanked themselves and wank about it some more...

Dang, I'm up to my neck in spoo.

Can you F_W a wank that's already on F_W?

*sighs* Oh HP Fandom, why do you insist on reasoning out your wars over the dumbest shit? They're goddamn fictional houses that stand for heroes, smart geeks, wizard equivalent to Star Trek red shirts, and the place to store bad guys and those who are trying hard but can't get it right.
