Sueric takes on Fandom_Wank; only, not really... She also seems to miss the point of F_W. Somehow I'm not surprised...

My very first wank! I’m so proud… Anyway, let’s get to it, shall we?

This wank begins on Fanfiction.net, where a fic was posted (that no one bothered to save) by a girl (that isn’t a member of FFN anymore). Luckily, Sueric eloquently laid out the facts for us to be horrified over in the Media Miner forums.

It’s an ass-kissing parade, until Angelica points out that building off of someone else’s plotline and characters is kind of the definition of fan fiction.

A bit of a controversy is born as the two duke out the difference between plagiarism and fan fiction. It is apparently decided that the difference between the two is the disclaimer at the beginning of the fic.

There is a bit more discussion between Angelica and Sueric's Legions of Terror. However, things seem to calm down until Sueric replies armed with a quote from Lady Macbeth (that I am SO beyond tempted to MST, mind you all), and explains to us all the true meaning of plagiarism…

Is anyone else worried that her explanation kind of matches Wikpedia.com’s definition of fan fiction?

After Sueric’s EMO!TEAR post, Vuirneen kindly points out the wisdom behind listening to others.

Naturally, Sueric quickly provides us with the message that inspired me to wank this corrects Vuirneen by reminding everyone that the situation is all about HER!

Then Fanilia steps in and locks the thread and subtly lets us all know that Angelica is going to be the cause of Sueric not writing anymore (What!? No Purity 18!? Damn…).

I suppose we should have known all along. The truth of the matter is that all fan fiction authors are plagiarists at heart.

Thank you, Sueric, for setting us all straight on the matter.

UPDATE: THE WANKAGE CONTINUES!

agent_hyatt has provided a link to Inugirl-chan's FFN profile that I thought was lost...

Also, Sueric apparently DID have a not so private bitch!fest to her fans on her forum (thanks to somnabulicious for pointing it out!). I think my favorite part is where Inuyoukaimama starts complaining about the horrible people who are all out to get Sueric.
