Holy Crusaders to End Ghost Slash
Stolen from a mouse atwank_report Original report here.
This is regarding the Danny Phantom fandom over at Butch Hartman's forum
The moderators have a Holy Mission: Butch does not like slash or pr0n, therefore, all of these artists must be destroyed. The moderators have been going around, suspending people for "explicit" or slash fanart. This is a fairly tame fandom, one of the pictures in question was a kiss. Also, the moderators do not like anyone linking to a deviantArt account, because the art there could be explicit.
The moderators send emails to said sodomites: (copied from flocked lj comm post, with permission)
We have reviewed your DA content and are questioning your status as an actual fan of Butch Hartman. He has made his opinions of "slash" on his characters clearly known. See this link for the relevant annoucement on his forum: http://butchhartman.com/forumIII/index.p
The DPOF have been following along with his decree and have banned numerous individuals associated with slash, in accordance with his wishes. We will not support the defamation of any of Butch's characters in any way, even if that means cutting folks off from our forums.
We are not here to convert or to force people out of doing what makes them happy, we are here to show our support for Butch. This means removing our association with people who draw (or write) material that would, in his own opinion, damage his reputation.
We know most of your work is fine, and what DP slash you do have is very mild, which is why we are sending this PM instead of outright banning you. Regardless, Butch has made it clear his position on this matter.
Can we please get your honest and sincere opinion on where you stand on this issue? We need to make some decisions about whether it is in our and Butch's best interest to maintain your account on the forums.
Sincerely,
The DPOF Administration Team
Others get more stern messages:
Your member account at Danny Phantom Online Forums has been banned indefinitely.
In accordance with Butch Hartman's decree, for having ties with communities that support artwork of Danny Phantom where he is portrayed in a sexually explicit manner, we of the DPOF have come to the decision where we must separate you from our own. When you decide to treat the show in a manner it deserves, we shall welcome you back.
That's right, repent son, and you shall be welcomes back into the light.
This all spills over into other places.
Edited to remove the offending picture! It's dirty so it must be garbage! Eww! And Georgia O'Keefe's flowers offend me as well!
She's not going to take it! She's going to lick Butch Hartman's shoes! The mods come and defend their decisions, waving Butch Hartman's Internet Lawyers all over the place. Also, OP is indeed a Slasher:
I have nothing against slash in and of itself. Heck, I look at and enjoy original slash. I do, however, have issues with disrespect to the creator and the creator's wishes. That is my point, here. Butch Hartman has made it clear that he does not approve of slash using his characters.
The "True Fans" create a deviantArt group
All DP fanartists and fanart are allowed in the club as long as they meet the requirements listed below:
- Member's gallery does not contain slash, shounen-ai, shoujo-ai, yaoi, yuri, softcore or hardcore pornography or any other mature works
- Submissions do not contain mature content
- Submissions promote the show respectfully
So....that picture I drew of Danny Phantom RAPING DEAD KITTENS WHILE BUTCH HARTMAN WATCHES AND CHILDREN CRY IN THE CORNER isn't really what they had in mind?
Why can't we all be like Star Wars and ignore what the creator says anyway.
ETA: Fans at El-Jay talk about it more here.
ETA2: Don't you love it when the wank comes to us? Psst... mice, your IPs are showing. (Eta3) And it comes again. This wank has that stale mouse-wank taste. Yum.
