Thank you, anonymouse.

Over on the Funimation Forums, Black Rose posts a story. It's a YYH story, and I can't comment on that, but she apparently borrowed names from Inu Yasha. It's not a very good story in any event, but everyone in the forum fanboys and fangirls over the story (I hate to see what the usual quality of work is over there.)

The wank begins on page 2 when user De Yaten (as I gather, our anonymouse) suggests that maybe Black Rose could come up with some original names.

Lots of people flame him/her. It involves lots of capitol letters, h1 tags, exclamation points, and misspellings. And, for some reason, the word "fool" is the insult of the day.

At one point, De Yaten says, rather tongue in cheek, that she/he is going to go kill puppies, insinuating that everyone is overreacting and that she/he was really not that mean. Someone takes the comment too seriously: I"LL SHOW YOU A BABY KITTIE, YOU LITTLE SICK SOB!!!!!!!!

Black Rose eventually tells everyone to cool it.

Some people apologize. Others pretend to, but sound rather passive agressive: Yeah, you are right as usual Nekojin.... you are even wiser than I myself am, sorry for getting carried away... I feel giulty now... even though she challelnged be it was unpresidented for me to act in the manner that I have. Sorry black rose.

I'm not sure what the president has to do with anything. ^_~

Black Rose has either a sister or a sock puppet that keeps threatening everyone, too. Entertaining.

Now I remember why I distanced myself from YYH fandom...

I just want to write and bring some joy to peoples lives.

Aw, how cute. It'd bring me some joy if everyone in the thread could learn to spell, punctuate, and communicate without using the CAPS LOCK OF RAGE!!!!!!

All people under the age of 16 or so ought to be given a daily quota for exclamation points and capitol letters.

What a coincidence, I was fuming about people naming their "original characters" names likes "Naruto" and "Kakashi" all in the same fanfic when it deals with another not-even-slightly related fandom.

Word, Fandom_Wank. You read my mind.
As for trying to read this atrocity. A... I didn't get farther than the fanfic. Canon character name mispellings, random as hell Inu Yasha names... I mean, really. What am I reading? An Inu Yasha fanfic, or a YYH one? Its just utterly too confusing.

Yes, that was my first thought too -- normally I don't click the anime wank unless it's a fandom I know via my anime-lovin' roomie, but I had to jump over and see if it involved [info]darthneko, because that didn't sound like her. Wfeeesh! Two sentences in (to the post, not even the story) and I was happily backing away.

This almost, almost makes me side with the Naruto and FMA fans that went batshit over their shows being licensed.

'Cause, dude, yeeeeeeears ago, there used to be a YYH fandom of relatively old ladies writing competent stories with hot buttsex and translating hot dojinshi. No, really. I swear. Why won't no one believe me?!

Black Rose has either a sister or a sock puppet that keeps threatening everyone, too

I'm voting sock. Either that or the inability to spell "confrontation" is genetic

I'm confused. Why are these people so mad? Also - why can none of them spell? And what would they do if some had actually left a bad review, rather than just a passing comment?

Put breaks between your paragraphs if you don't know how to indent the first line of each paragraph; it's just one extra return key hit. Arrgghhh!!!! *pulls hair*

It involves lots of capitol letters, h1 tags, exclamation points, and misspellings.

"Capitol letters", you say? And you still have the nerve to criticize others for their misspellings? In the same sentence, no less!

Oh yeah, I'm laughing. At you.

I think my favorite reply is from a user named "Hiei's Gurl 4 life" who responds with:

omg that is a great story im writing sum fan fiction myself its called inuyasha vs. hojo sum day when i finish it ill send it 2 u

Of course, given that her username is about the most cliched you can possibly get in this fandom without including the words "rose" or "kitsune", and that she just joined this month and her little blurb under her name is a clear parody of everyone else's little "Happy New Year!" thing, I'm fairly certain I'm laughing with her and not at her.

I love how everyone else takes her seriously, though. Hee!

And all those people who think that's the best YYH fic they've ever read are clearly not looking in the right places, because that is nowhere near the best YYH fic that's out there. It's not even the best of the YYH badfic. d00d, she spells Yuusuke's name right! She deserves a little badfic metal just for that!

Although I must admit that "Kurwabara" is one I haven't seen before, but I'm willing to give her the benefit of the doubt and say it might've been a typo, judging by the rest of her work.

I agree with De Yaten. ^__^

But my fandom is extraordinarily wanky for some odd reason. First Tim and the Sensui-Suethor, now this.
