"I barely have any skin left on my palm!"
Yes, Supernatural fandom, we have arrived!

I'm not exactly sure what's going on here, but some panties are certainly in a bunch.

So first traveller makes a filtered post (since unlocked) about fandom politics, and her distate thereof. I tried reading the whole thing, but the lack of capital letters hurt my brain, so here's the gist of it:


today i made a reading filter to exclude exactly one person. she told me she was adding me as a "handshake gesture" because we were both so important to fandom that our perceived feud (there was no feud, there was just a whole lot of me not caring about her opinions, her fic, or her - as lalas would say, i had no opinion on rob zombie) and she suggested that i do the same in return in order to demonstrate to our multitudes that look, we've got a détente, we've got perestroika and the START treaty, look. although, she added, it was fine with her if i didn't add her back, but she was going to do her part for the good of the fandom .

And:

in the end, as much as it made my teeth hurt to do it, i added her back. and today, i filtered her out.

we don't have much at all in common. we can barely exchange three civil sentences. we don't agree on... just about anything. i don't enjoy her posts. i don't enjoy her stories. why are we DOING this? is she right? are people so weak minded that the very idea that two so-called BNFs don't like each other is going to lead to some kind of great meltdown? whatever happened to just... live and let live?


Meanwhile, ethrosdemon's ears are burning:


I was completely genuine when I told you I wanted to get along. I, unlike you, am a genuine person who expresses honest feelings and don't feel the need to make myself feel better by belittling others. As a matter of fact, that type of behavior is disgusting and reprehensible. If you wanted to upset me, you win. As a matter of fact, you have now hit every one of your objectives in insulting, alienating, and provoking me. I am publically stating that I do not like you. This makes me look like a cuntface. Since I know that was your intention, I say BRAVO. Bravissmo! Well played. Very well played, indeed.

I would email you about this, because that's how I roll, BUT I know you would just post it locked to your lj, so it's rather pointless.

However, the position of my fandom nemesis has already been taken--your application has been stamped *denied*. Please get on with ignoring me, and I shall do the very same.


And:

PfuckingS: Dear fucking PADDYWHACK. This is almost unfuckingbelievable. Thank you, Cee, for unlocking that post. Now, I get to use the SV wank word: disingenuous. If you think that she's being unbiased and level in that post, then go ahead and defriend me because you ain't been paying attention to who I am or what I'm like as a person. Yes, I'm famous for throwing my weight around and BNFing up in this bitch. OKAY.


SPN wank! MY LIFE IS NOW COMPLETE.

…wow. But creating a reading filter and announcing is pretty wanky.

I'm a little confused. Could ethrosdemon see the post about the filter? Or did she find out through someone else? And...why not just not friend her back, if it "made [traveller's] teeth hurt to do it"? Is SPN fandom really that sensitive to who has who friended?

I have no idea what this fandom is, but "Since I know that was your intention, I say BRAVO. Bravissmo! Well played. Very well played, indeed." totally WINS at wank.

Bravo! Bravissimo, I say! *throws roses*

And thing being said, this is SPN wank. Where the hell is the incest haters? C'mon now, I know it's hiding about, just waiting to come out.

*Snort*

Just in case ANYONE could possibly think that I've made my peace with this other BNF, rest assured I still hate her guts, hense this long post clearly explaining how I'm still ignoring her even though she's on my F-list supposedly to prove that we actually get along.

Yeah.

Dudette, lots of people use filters, for various reasons, but we don't see a need to broadcast who is on which. Way to sound snooty and childish.

I would like to think I'm "active" in the Supernatural fandom, but I can honestly say I have no flipping clue who either of these people are.
I'll just be over here drooling over Jensen Ackles if anyone needs me.

... I do not know either of them because I'm only a journal lurker, but I have to say I've been expecting this ever since http://traveller.livejournal.com/842724.html?thread=14120932#t14120932 happened.

(In short:

traveller makes an LJ post about Supernatural fandom picking up a lot of people from the old days in LotR RPS and how traveller is morally superior because she is tempted to say a bunch of stuff and be a bitch to them now, only she is not doing any of those things.

ethrosdemon basically says a bunch of stuff and then caps it off with: "More importantly, and directly, I think the tone of this post is rude and intended to start drama, and this is exactly what we *don't* need in this fandom. Lock your posts."

I think we all know where it goes from there. A couple other people jump in and the pre-wank begins.)
