Pern Fandom Wanks Again
I resisted for a good long time, but the wank it just keeps going.

There is a Pern board called the Kitchen Table. On this, the admin have a private office area. There is another Pern board called Pernese Friends. On this some people have a private Hellkats area.

All is good until a couple of the admin frim the Kitchen Table insult another of the Kitchen Table admin in the Hellkats area. Another admin reports it back, the admin doing the insulting get sacked and after that there's a whole lot of shouting.


People feel that as the Kitchen Table is paid for by donations they should get to vote on how it's run. People feel the office area should be open. People feel they should get to vote on current Hosts. People feel they should get to vote on how new Hosts are chosen.

Meanwhile the wank just keeps going.

(There are probably more links. I know t5here was one on the Hellkats board somewhere because I saw it posted on the Kitchen Table. There's so much Kitchen Table stuff though, that finding it seems an impossible task.)

ETA:-Another thread goes up! Could it all be a massive conspiracy?

ETA2:-Looks like the Pernese Friends lot do have wank too. And after some poking I found their side of the story.

ETA3:- And someone spots they've been wanked.

ETA4:- Handy timeline of events is posted. People get snarky about people leaving. Hosts try to explain how they choose new Hosts.

ETA5:- The I'm leaving post that was being snarked at. Which I would have spotted the first time, but these people are wanking so hard it's hard to keep up.

ETA6:- Did I mention being hard to keep up? Pernese Friends decides to bah-leet most of their wank and move it to a private forum because people are laughing at them people might get upset. Stupidly, I did not take screen caps. Anyone want to upload copies and I'll link them.
