DTS: A town of peace-loving folk
Apparently there was a big kerfluffle at Devoted to Smallville, a major Smallville fansite/forum, that resulted in several staff members leaving. Well, said staff members weren't content to let sleeping dogs lie. They decided to start an LJ community dedicated to exposing the dark underbelly of DTS.

The comm gets broken in with the second entry, in which [info]jr24tw posts an expose about DTS's various dark deeds, among which is stealing content from other sites. Naturally, the comments explode in wank. A mouse tells [info]jr24tw to "stop liing!" They wank for a bit until [info]janet_luthor shows up to defend DTS's honor. Accusations of ZOMG STEALING fly back and forth, but the fun doesn't really get started till banninated mice come out of the woodwork to tell their tales of woe.

Of course, what wank would complete without ship wars? [info]phoenyx4 says her piece on the subject (and her repeated emphasis on "harmony" in this post amused me far more than it should have), predicting Clana-related wank in the comments (for those of you who don't know, Clana is the name for the Clark/Lana ship). She is not disappointed.

[info]jr24tw then comes back with a post about how no one has gotten to know the "real" her, which spawns more wank.

[info]mizz_cg says:
I won't hide behind a facade. I'll come right out and say that it was me. I was the friend who applied for the job. And let me tell you, i was appalled by my interview with her, why the need to bring out certain individuals in that matter? I distinctively told her that i didnt know Jana personally, but that didn't stop her from bad mouthing her. At that time, i wasn't sure why i said that i didn't know Jana when i knew her personally, I guess i was trying to see if she would say anything horrible about her. Lo and behold she did. Now it got me thinking, what if i was some random person who knew nothing about Jana, who only saw her a few times on the board? What will i think of her then after Janet just brainwashed me?

[info]t_l_k says:
You say no one wants to get the real you, so who is the "real" you? If it's the side you show on this community, I don't blame those people. I do agree that people should hear both sides of the argument. But a lot of what you are saying seems like lies, not a good argument.

The spooge had barely settled when the attacked party shows up to defend herself. Another DTS staff member makes her debut on this thread, and we descend into tl;dr back-and-forth for a bit.

The spooge seems to have settled down, but at least we set the record straight. Now we know that the disgruntled staffers left of their own free will, and DTS is now just a bunch of CLOIS WHORING DOUCHE BAGS! Mission accomplished.

Lying in a job interview, oh yeah, that's real admirable. You're totally the wronged party here, yep...

Weirdly, I just found that site this week while trying to hunt down a source for those black and white pics of Tom Welling where he looks incredibly rentboyish. The wank is following me!

Am I the only one who thinks 'shipping anything for Smallville is kinda pointless in the long run, considering what we know happens in the end? Not that people can't write fics about it or anything; I'm not going to be a creepy fandom nazi and say that NO NON-CANON STUFF IS ALLOWED...just...the rabid ones. They kind of scare me. Then again, the only reason I ever watch Smallville is Lex, and...well. Ow, the future, it hurts me.

why do I only ever comment when I'm too tired to see straight?

The same reason, I guess, that most UC shippers ship couples they know will never happen. I'm a Clark/Lana shipper (and to admit that in the Smallville fandom is equivalent to admitting you ship H/Hr in HP) and even I am put off by their batshirttery. The best way to describe Clana wank (and there is a *lot* of it) is that it's just like your average Harmonian wank with the names changed. Their ship being officially sunk has deterred them about as much as it's deterred the Harmonians.

I like to think I'm a sane Clana shipper who's happy to remain in her little corner and be perfectly content that her ship is fanon.

Then there's the cute part where various wankers share a laugh about how LiveJournal is so over and MySpace is where to find Teh Cool kids. *pets them*

I'm going to be slightly wanky and say I don't even see what the big fuss about Myspace is about.

There. I said it aloud. Will I be struck down by the wrath of Teh Internet Gods now?

Too many Clana fanfictions! As mod for the fanfic section, I’d have to read fics to make sure they fit under “forum policy” and ohmygod, one more gazzlionth Clana love story and I was going to kill someone.

You know, this got me thinking... if the FF.net staff is required to read all submissions and approve them before it's published, how long would it take before they kill someone?

I'm so out of tune now. Smallville has Clark/Lois now?

Sweeeet. I think. Is it?

Only in the fangirls' heads, I'm afraid. Lois hasn't really been around much this season (other than that whole pole dancing thing).

Are you a Clois-whoring douchebag too? How nice! Me too. Maybe -- I mean, I like Clark/Lois, enough to make it a major element of the only SV fanfic I've written, but she wasn't even on the show when I wrote it, and I also love Clark/Lex, I've never been to DTS, and I'm currently out of tune with Smallville as well, so I'm utterly confused. Can I even qualify to be a Clois-whoring douchebag? *sigh*

It must be the wank throwing me off-balance. It makes no sense to me, and I don't want to spend the brain power figuring it out.

I rarely visit DTS because everytime I cruise their forums I get bombarded by huge Clana banners and posts like, "OMG CLANA RULZ IF U DONT LIK CLANA UR JEST A BUNCH OF JELLUZ HATERZ!!!!!" and scary Kristom posts by 12 year old kids who actually think Kristin Kreuk and Tom Welling are really dating.

OMG, the Kristom tinhats are seriously scary. Some of the Clana shippers have actually said they're shipping Kristom now that their ship has been sunk for the 134234th time. I'm like... um... you guys are aware that they're not *really* Clark and Lana, right?

Best reason ever.

I can't watch Smallville because it is too serious drama and not enough funny (for the one or two episodes I watched).

*plays her Lois and Clark DVDs*

For reasons that are, thanks to this post, now clear to the world at Kryptonsite we refer to the DevotedToSmallville people as "the iDioTS." It's not mature, but it's accurate. I don't know how it is now, but a couple of years ago, DTS's forums were almost entirely comprised of people who had been banned from Kryptonsite for trolling, spamming for DTS, flaming people who didn't like Clark/Lana, and of course, aLwAyZ TyPinG LyK DisS. Yes, including Filmgirl.

Also... Jana... Yana... Clana...who can keep track?
