Once more with feeling!
Continuing on from [info]greyscale's wank two weeks ago that got almost as large as Sueric's ego so big that it earned its own fic!

Media miner’s mods have given BNFs new fanfic rules. These rules need not apply to those beneath them.  (i.e. everyone with a head small enough to walk through a door.)
1) All C&C is now considered harassment. After all, they get so many flames a day, they shouldn't have to put up with actual advice.
2) You have the right to flame anyone who dares to C&C you and sic your legions of terror on them.
3) Anything less than a 10/10: Flame. Delete it and rinse and repeat as necessary from rule one.
4) Fans no longer have the right to point out when you're an arrogant ass to them.
5) Mods are to protect you against anything that doesn't include a smiley face and a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.

A topic is started before the initial wank about people not being able to take C&C but eventually Julia_mizu brings up this C&C that was left for Sueric after the last wank and was deleted (but saved in a few places like here on F_W and on ffn) But that's harassment, not C&C if you're a BNF! fanilia jumps in with her own story that makes no sense what so ever and isn't related to the topic and enlightens us with the fact that religion and fandom are the same thing. Or maybe she was saying it's okay to C&C as long as it's not actually to the author, because the Legions of Terror jump on you for it.

She later threatens to lock the post for others going off topic.

And teh stupid doesn’t stop there!

Kendraless brings up another review that's been deleted by Sueric but Broken Visage and Dumas1 make it all better because it protects the idiot reviewer who dared to say what they really think.

Yamsham doesn't feel better knowing the mods are out to protect one of their own her.

And what the hell is with fanilia? She doesn't seem to understand that people on F_W 1) are not trying to give C&C and 2) are not TRYING to be seen by the people they are wanking about.  They seem to have been here enough:read the damn rules.

Additional reading for those who really feel the need to laugh:

I wish I was a BNF. Then I could delete my bad reviews I could edit my reviews so that they only said positive things I could get reviews.

This thing most of all seemed to irk me:


Let me put it another way.

Dont go to a concert, stand in the middle of a bunch of true fans, wait for it to be quite and then say 'This sucks'

The band isn't going to attack you but I bet those fans will


Oh, please. That's hella fucking lame. I leave honest concrit and my opinion whether the author has legions of buttmonkey fans or not. I don't see why an authors popularity should impinge on other people's opinions of the work. That's fucking stupid.

Mind, I had exactly the same thing happen with me with C**** of the hermionepotter.net forums yesterday with concrit. She edited a mostly positive review to take away any criticism and flamed me for being so stupid!!111

Quote from Dumbass1Dumas1: As some people have pointed out in the Readers Driving Writers Away thread, that review could be considered harassment...

Actually, if it would only be harassment if the reviewer sent it like 50 times. Sending it once is just advice. Oh, and about that 'last paragraph' that you all keep bitching about: Sueric added the flame rants into her fic and as such opened the door for reviewers to comment upon her doing so. She does have a right to bitch about the reviews she gets in her ANs, but don't be surprised when people just don't give a fig's ass since everyone gets them and most of us manage not to threaten to quit over it tell her they think it's inappropriate.

Quote from Fanilia: The the person posting this topic and to those who have expressed an opinion here. Everyone on the net... be it on the forums, in art or in fanfiction has or will learn how to take it. That does not mean their way will be the same as your way. We all do what we do for our own reasons, sometimes others know why, sometimes they don't.

Actually, bitching about every piece of advice you receive to your entire audience cannot be considered 'taking it'. It just means their too egotistical/immature/stupid/prideful to admit that no matter how good they are, they can always do better.

Quote from Fanilia: Dont go to a concert, stand in the middle of a bunch of true fans, wait for it to be quite and then say 'This sucks'

The band isn't going to attack you but I bet those fans will.


This is a ludicrous comparison.
1) When you PAY to go see something, chances are you're a fan.
2) No one said her stuff sucked. In fact even the C&C that she receives manages to kiss her ass.
3) It may not be a good idea to go into a crowded theater and yell, 'You suck', but if those fans DO assault you, who will the cops be arresting at the end of the day?
4) Since when was the review board only for massive fans? Now if someone went to SUERIC'S personal forum and left their C&C, you MIGHT have the beginnings of a very dull point since (once again) NO ONE SAID IT SUCKED!!

Quote from Broken Viasge: Is it really that hard for people to understand that rabid fans are NOT in the author's zone of control and WILL attack people they see as being condescending?

Wow. And here I thought it was all about the author being offended! I didn't realize that they were being good Samaritans and trying to protect the people that criticized them!! But wait! If they are only doing it to protect the C&C poster, why would they THEN turn around and post about it in their ANs? Let's think....

Overall, I have decided that the administration of MM.org are a bunch of self-serving hypocritical buttmunches. Any other viewpoints on this?

Some people just think that their gallery/webpage/LJ/Whatever is supposed to be their personal pillow-covered zone where nothing can hurt them or go against their will. While I think a person should ultimately have control over their little corner of the net, with the choice of which reviews to delete for whatever reason, I get annoyed at the attitude of fanila and others that if a review is considered a flame by the author then it is one, regardless of how nicely and constructively it's written.

I also think she needs to look up "harassment" in the dictionary. Somebody making fun of you a thousand miles away on their own site is not harassment. But to some people, everything that makes them not smile is harassment.

Well, it looks like Sueric's another wanker that comes out only when the Whine-signal's lit. I wonder if she'll be consistant enough to make a Jurisimpudence law for her. Maybe something like "The frequency of whining about fanfiction reviews is directly in proportion to the amount of martyred apperences made by the Inuyasha hackwriter known as Sueric and her minions of stupidity".

Nah, that sounds more like a math proof.

I challenged fanilia's final post about freezing the thread and the comment got deleted.

Too bad I didn't cut and paste it somewhere. But roughly what I said was, she is confusing the hell out of everyone that this topic was supposed to be about authors in general learning to take concrit when her post right before this one told everyone that it was personal. That concrit is labelled as flames.

It didn't even last five minutes.

No, it's like this: there is a site that likes to make fun of people, and if the people won't do dumb things, they try to force a person's hand so that something dumb is done.

That's right. Wank isn't naturally occurring in fandom at all. It's a rare and precious resource that must be carefully nourished and cultivated until harvest time, when we can reap the sweet, sweet harvest of mockery.

WTF?

I expect this will be made fun of, as is the way with a wank. I have better things to do than care about what they think is funny.

OMG I DON'T CARE ABOUT THE WANK!!!omg eleven!!111!! IMHO, those people the most interested in not getting wanked and they actually mind being wanked anyway...

First things first...who the fuck is Sueric and what is it about her visage that evokes screams?

This wank reminds me of my Shakespearean comment ages and ages ago. Except, you know, in an exact opposite sort of way. Some of you older ones may remember it, you newer ones will just have to be deprived because some bastard has apparently deleted the entire wank. Actually...::quick search:: Ah, yes, at least my comment is still on Metaquotes. Just to bring you wankers some culture, I researched and found another Shakespeare reference, one applicable to this concrit thing. I found some comments from an early draft of Hamlet posted on RenFic.net...

George Chapman joined 4/3/1579
"Thy Hamlet is twixt madness and mirth, Be he nutseth? I do most verily love thy play, but if thou shouldst accept some advice, I wouldst suggest you call him the Danish Prince rather than the Prince of Danishes. They are a most succulent and flakey pastry, but thy audience might get confused. I rateth this play 9/10"

Francis Beaumont joined 9/9/1601

All true. I swear. We almost lost Shakespeare for the ages. Concrit is bad stuff.

.............. the whole thing's tl;dr 'cause I'm busy, actually, but from what I think I got off the OP, lemme get this straight...

If you qualify as a BNF on MM... you are blessed with a "get out of concrit free" card, like the almighty Anne Rice, who is like the Queen of BNFs?

Someone on LJ wondered what BNF stood for, and thought maybe it meant "Brats Not Fans".

I think that's more accurate.

What the...? Why doesn't MM just allow for an option where authors can turn comments off on their fics? The rules they've got now just make them look like a bunch of ass-kissers who want to coddle the BNFs so they won't raise a ruckus. Except, wait, that happened anyway.

At least DeviantART, in all its wanky glory, allows different options for comments. Artists can set them to different levels of their preferred criticism, or turn them off completely. Of course, most people don't mess with it, and most artists who should really turn them off don't and then do what these authors are doing and yell at people who give them honest criticism.. I guess that's a lame comparison, then.

I honestly do not understand the whole "I don't need criticism" thing. These kids don't understand that writing The Greatest (Insert Popular Anime/Book/Movie/TV series here) Fanfic Of All Time does not make you a masterful writer, no matter how good the porn scenes are.

Dont go to a concert, stand in the middle of a bunch of true fans, wait for it to be quite and then say 'This sucks'

The band isn't going to attack you but I bet those fans will.


Yes but posting on a public page: "This story is OK, but I don't know, there are some things that make no sence" is not the same thing as "you suck". Wait, Earth Logic again.

There should be some sort of rule of nature that if a moderator sides with a wanker in a pointless, demeaning argument, they lose all respect and power over other members.

What the hell is wrong with Sueric? I would kill to get "flames" like she gets. Polite, respectful, obviously enjoying the story but with a few clearly-stated suggestions...

No, seriously, did her mommy always tell her to not listen to what the mean girls in high school were saying, or did she just wake up on the stupid side of the bed?

This moment of WTF? is brought to you by WickedSmile, who says:

As long as they're constructive, it's all good. But in my case, the moment some reviewer tries to tell me how to write (because they're better in their own little minds,) then I'll either tell them to go to hell, or play with their pitiful little psyches until they crack up.

In short, concrit is good, as long as it doesn't tell the author how to write. So you have to... agree with whatever the author is doing? Which means no crit?

But what mental horrors does this master or mistress of twistedness have in mind for people who put the crit in concrit?

And by "playing with their little psyches" I don't mean stalking them, but agreeing with every single statement or comment in their reviews/mails to then do whatever I had planned to do for the plot anyways (which is never what they thought.)

S/he... acts like a standard clueless fanfic author! Well done!

Yes, I'm a bastard, thanks for noticing.

I think you spell that P-A-S-S-I-V-E-hyphen-A-G-G-R-E-S-S-I-V-E, dearie.

Media miner’s mods have given BNFs new fanfic rules. These rules need not apply to those beneath them. (i.e. everyone with a head small enough to walk through a door.)
1) All C&C is now considered harassment. After all, they get so many flames a day, they shouldn't have to put up with actual advice.
2) You have the right to flame anyone who dares to C&C you and sic your legions of terror on them.
3) Anything less than a 10/10: Flame. Delete it and rinse and repeat as necessary from rule one.
4) Fans no longer have the right to point out when you're an arrogant ass to them.
5) Mods are to protect you against anything that doesn't include a smiley face and a pot of gold at the end of the rainbow.


This is for real? Dude, what a bunch of crap. Makes me glad I don't post to MediaMiner. :P
