not a fandom but fandom breeds icon whorage
I was reading my friends list when I read she joined some sort of stolen icon community.

The LJ icon equivalent to Fandom Wank.

Upon reading...I found:

Steal my icon go ahead but credit me dammit!

And this person is so obsessed with this person taking her icons, she's taken to stalking her.

	You know, practically the only word not misspelled there is "ciao". That's impressive. ::bows before the kween of netspeak:: (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	I know. Most of my life I thought it was "chou", which probably means something in some language. Maybe. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	Actually, it's French for "cabbage." Hee. (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	ahem May I call ye my little chou? Mwahaha. What's sad is that so many people get pissy about another user's icon even RESEMBLING theirs . . . when most icons aren't even worth stealing. Barrel-scrapers. PSP hoors. I'd be chortling if LiveJournal would let me in! Please insert filthy little innuendos regarding invasion here. (Reply to this)(Parent)

	It also means super or butterfly in Japanese (although not pronounced the same as ciao). Grace (Reply to this)(Parent)(Thread)

	There's nothing quite like icon-theft wank. It's all shiny and pretty and full of more misspelled rebuttals than a HP plagiarism wank. And that's saying something. (Reply to this)

	YOu know, I"m all for intellectual property, blah blah blah, but what a bunch of whiners. Gah. It's not anyone's making money off them or anything. And the fact that the community supports harassment really pisses me off. (Reply to this)

	I'm going to entertain myself with visions of rebelsheep receiving severe beatings from people wielding giant red felt-tip pens. Just . . . ugh. Like I said on LJ customers_suck last night, anyone who expects me to put effort into reading what they wrote had damn well better put the effort into making it readable. (Reply to this)

	quinctia 2003-04-15 04:46 am UTC (link)
	I really don't get the icon thing. I make them, they're pretty. Whatever. The only thing that would irk me would be someone using an icon made from something I drew without giving me credit. (Though why anyone would want to use a pic of ME as their av is beyond me.) (Reply to this)

	the one that made me laugh the hardest was the person complaining about the dots. the FREAKING dots! wtf? (Reply to this)(Thread)

	But they were her dots! Or something. Mmmm... Domino's Dots... (Reply to this)(Parent)

	From the second link: o0o o0o fank u finaly sum1 settin merky strait thank u i nevr nu sum1 could make sucha big deal outa a simple lj icon but matters with it r ovr now ciao-rebelsheep I find it amazing that people actually type like this on a regular basis. (Reply to this)(Thread)

	I just find it amazing that people could read it and reply to it. (Reply to this)(Parent)
