Ickle bite-sized HP wank. Where would we be without it?
Boy, I could post a long, long history of the wankiness of the Astronomy Tower RPG (which would include wanking myself), but I just can't bring myself to do it. To make a long, long story semi-short, three LJ friends decided to create a slashy HP RPG, and at its height, Snape was married to Lupin. Bottom line: It was pretty much an excercise in creative masturbation for a handful of (mostly) girls who could, at the time, find nothing better to do (but aren't most RPG like that?).

Anyway, as time flew by, the founding members of the RPG went on to other things; some who didn't have anything else to occupy their times dwelled on the RPG, and wanted to take up the modship from the lone founding member who had any attachment to the RPG (since she was the one who created all of the pretty backgrounds for every player's journal), who'd been sitting on the idea of moving it from the G-dawfully slow Blurty to GreatestJournal. Two LJ members, atalantapendrag and rissyau pestered said member about when the RPG was going to be started again, until Snape/atalantapendrag sought fit to usurp the modship from the owner/founder, maruchina. Things got ugly for a while a few months ago with accusations of "Atan" being a backstabber, but eventually Atan, Rissyau, and Maruchina worked a few things out (not exactly smoothly, but enough to somehow/somewhere resurrect AT.

Well. I suppose good things don't last forever, as now Atan made a mess of AT and then kicked Rissy out. Rissy then defriends Atan on LJ, and Atan gets indignant about it. The backstabbing bitch! accusations fly again, and we have a 32-year-old woman who can't spell bitching about a 20-year-old college student who can't spell (though she seems to do just fine in the anon comment). We even have the surely you have something better to do? condescension, as well as the gratuitous craptastic poetry trolling that dumbs down each and every one of its readers.

Me? My only guilt in this is having RPGed in AT with Atan once, and having to make up for her lackluster Snape (Wanky, yes! But true.) while she sat there not knowing what to say.

Oh, HP fandom. How you never disappoint, even in the mini-wanks.
