House wank #5, because humanity is overrated
yes, the fifth fandom wank so far. have we set some kind of record? in a show that's so snarky, the biting sarcasm leaks into the fans. so in this short but sweet wank, there's AUs, plagiarism, and even sockpuppets! best of all, we have SCREENCAPS.

It's not just the house_md community that's full of wank in the House fandom. There was a wank explosion over at housefic. Unfortunately, the original post has been deleted, but due to stellabymoor and acrimonius's efforts, the wankage has been archived for our enjoyment.

kidhighwind decides to post an AU crossover fic whose premise is not entirely original. If lifting the plot from X Day wasn't enough, lifting an entire scene from the Escaflowne movie was, according to the simple, if snarky reply made by acrimonius. diagnose_this chimes in with a link to the Fandom Glossary's definition of "High School AU". Both posts get replied to and subsequently deleted.

stellabymoor and aureliapriscus jump to acrimonius' defense when kidhighwind gloats in public about deleting the "flamers" replies. Take note of this screenie for kidhighwind's particular brand of omg replying???!!!

aureliapriscus makes a valiant effort at diplomacy, but kidhighwind whines a lot and goes "PITY ME!", causing acrimonius to get angry and actually flame kidhighwind outright. All can be found here.

The fun almost began here, where kidhighwind flips out a little more and decries all of her accusers as flamers, and she'sleavingtehcommyuunity4evar!!1 But! Woe and alas, it was not to be -- shortly after that was archived, kidhighwind made good on her promise and actually figured out how to delete her community post. Oh noes.

In any case, it looks like I took that comm off my friendslist at just the right time. heh.

bah, I wasn't the main instigator. got pretty into it though.

and well, like from the third House wank, someone was a bit miffed that it was on both i_w and f_w. I figure there's more coverage on f_w.

Except she didn't actually leave. She's still a member and she still watches it. *adds that to the list*

Hah! I saw that fic on the comm and just decided: Walk. On. By. The very concept of a House high school AU made my soul cry. Clearly the right decision.

*sniff* We're a real fandom now!

I gave it a skim hoping it'd be good, but ... it was not. And then I saw the Hitomi/Allison thing and went ARGHHLE MUST BITE K.

The wank and the fluff and whatnot is starting pretty quickly. Didn't know things snowballed this fast. My head is spinning.

Where are all these things archived, by the way?

God, how did this fandom attract these people?

No, seriously, how? What BNF do I have to blame? I mean, no teenage pretty people. Main characters are over 40. Graphic medical drama, and lots of sarcasm.

Not your typical teenie formula. I mean, these are generally the same people that tell me things like "You like Giles/Ethan? OMG, ew!!!!! They're so old!!!!!"

I'm confused.

It's all Chase's fault.

He's too damn pretty for our own good.

Based loosely on X-Day? Just from reading the plot summary, I do not think "loosely" means what she thinks it means...

Oh, House fandom. So young, and yet so wanky. Can you imagine what this fandom is going to look like a year from now? *anticipates*

we still haven't gotten to RPS, OTPs, BNFs, pedophilia (wait, that's for the Harry Potter fandom), Wacky Pseudo-Legalese Hijinks, and stalkers.

hooray.

Accounts you take out on your own to argue with detractors and/or plug your own material, but they're supposedly from people who are not you. E.G. "This is Hoover's sister, and you're making her upset!" or "I've known hooverdam for years when I met her at so and so convention and she'd never do something like that..." etc. Usually exposed when the sockpuppet either a) posts under their "real" identity thinking they're using a puppet, or b) someone notices an awful lot of people posting with one peculiar grammar or spelling quirk.
