What is this "make-believe" of which you speak?
I don't know how old this is; I just stumbled across it in my quest for decent Weiß Kreuz screencaps, and before I knew what was happening I was buried in an avalanche of splooge.
No place to comment, sadly enough, but a nice, compact wank, in which a site owner Sees The Light and Attempts To Share Her Wisdom:
Cracked no longer exists, I haven't the time, energy, nor patience to deal with this fandom anymore. Emailing me will do no good, I no longer answer fandom emails, nor will I keep the same AOL Instant Messenger screenname for long, so if you have something to say, I'd appreciate if you could contact me within the next 3 days.
A thing to be considered while reading this is that Weiss Kreuz along with many other animes is just fantasy. It isn't real and it never will be. I've seen people who become so totally obsessed with it, that it becomes their lives. Most waking moments are spent entranced infront of their computer screens and soon the simplicity and aura of happiness surrounding the internet becomes their true world. Fighting, Flames wars and the like, become the substitute for confrontations in reality. I used to be this way and believe me, it did more harm than good.
Get out there and do something dude. Ride your bike, hang out with your friends, read or write a book, do something. Before you realize it, you may have missed some of the best years of your life infront of the computer screen.
I know some of you will think that I am bullshitting, after all...what do I know. I myself used to do exactly what I am preaching against. Well, my birthday was August 23rd and I am now 18. An adult. And the sad thing is that I wasted 4 years of my life chasing a drawn dream.
Fuck it. Do what you do and have a nice a day.
Chickie might like to keep in mind that not everybody is her. More to the point, if "many other animes" are just fantasy... then which ones aren't?
ETA: New shit has come to light! And in light of this new shit....
schuldig informs us that chickie's net handle is Sadistic Paperclip, her drama-filled disappearance dates back a couple years, and she left a similarly wanky good-bye message on what one can only assume is the aptly-named "crappyweissfics" mailing list.
I might be leaving the fandom my dear. See after much observation I
have come to the realization that while I see fanfiction as something
fun to be played with, most people turn it into their lives and sole
reason for living.
Yes. It is pathetic.
In the end these losers remain hollow shells, tapping painfilled
passages into word processors and sending them out into the world
with the sole intent of one day having someone tell them that they
are good at something and quite frankly my dear, I don't give a damn.
I tried to be nice...I did. I WAS. *insert miniature violin* But
after having emotional sobby bitches complain to me about how I hurt
their feelings just because I said there should have been a comma
there or I think the story would have been nicer had it stopped here,
I find I cannot handle it.
So with this, I hope to polish off my Weiss Kreuz career (I still
have an article to complete for the New Yorker and mondo homework,
you know how it is.) and complete the few remaning fictions I have.
Follow your own demon and he shall lead you to glory,

The New Yorker and mondo homework. You know how it is.
