Pokéfic Wanklet
Over on Serebii, Jesse GS the II posts a "fic" in huge, unreadable blocks.

Mod Zephyr Flare tells her to read the rules.

Jesse complains that her other fic was in the same format and no one complained, so Zephyr tells her So because you were caught first that makes it all right does it?

I think not.

Jesse goes nuts, telling commenter Yami Ryu "How 'bout you get the hell off my back and stop telling me how to write?"

And it wouldn't be complete without this..."I am officially retiring from writing "Pokémon" fanfiction, effective immediately. I refuse to attempt to function in an environment that only cares about getting things right according to the higher-ups."

Then Zephyr replies again and locks it. Short, but an entertaining wank

Oooh, another bit from her here. Includes the phrase 'higher-ups who aren't willing to accept change within their tiny little empires.'

This would be more fun, however, if Jesse could get some fangirls or sockpuppets involved. Taking your ball and going home gets so much more wanky when they start coming back for the beating over and over and over again.

Wank like this is just not good enough unless the fangirls are screaming murder and trolling the boards. No sockpuppets?! Where's my justice?

I LOVE it when they do they "OMG I'LL NEVER WRITE AGAIN!!!1" stuff! It means we don't have to put up with their huge egos and even huger whine-attacks.

Except they always do, in fact, write again. Damn.

How I miss Pokemon fandom.

Oh, wait. No I don't.

Anyone from Serebii know if Archaic is still there? He was a top-quality wanker supreme.

He's on Bulbagarden now, and was recently featured in this wank" where he threatened to ban Meowth's voice actress and wouldn't say why.

Many fanfic writers nowadays seem incapable of seperating thier fics into coherent paragraphs. I blame the public school system. ^^

It's so easy to blame Anne Rice, isn't it?

I blame Ann for -- um, global warming! Because so many trees gave their lives for the drivel she puts out.

Who else wants to play the Blame Anne Rice game?

My first fic was originally separated into paragraphs, but didn't have a new one every time a character spoke. I had never noticed that was how it worked before for some reason, despite being an avid reader.

I did figure it out and reformatted it before I ever got it posted anywhere, at least.

FORMATTING IS OPPRESSION OMG

I love how s/he thinks the "higher-ups" of a Pokemon fanfiction site govern the rules of writing. Has this person never had say, a teacher?

Damn. I don't even know why I hang around Serebii, seeing as about 98% of them are all fanbrats. A lot of them think they are intelligent and shit, and whenever you actually try to say anything, they get all pussy and whiny at whatever member they can. They all remind me of myself, back when I was an annoying fan and thought that I was "all that". Ah, good times.

A lot of them need to grow up; I'd like to see them anywhere outside of Serebii. No, really. I would.

Ahh, Serebii. Why do I post there, again? Oh right, the love of attention for my fan-fics. Right.

"I am officially retiring from writing "Pokémon" fanfiction, effective immediately. I refuse to attempt to function in an environment that only cares about getting things right according to the higher-ups."

I'll give her two days, tops.

I want to put in huge letters somewhere on a giant bilboard or something that says "When you write and a new character speaks, start a new paragraph. When an idea is finished, start a new paragraph. When an explenation is finished, start a new paragraph."

That's just one of my biggest pet peeves ever >.>

My knee-jerk response was to see if my sister got involved in this, until I remembered she mods at a different forum.

I know she hangs out over at PokeCommunity, but I'm not sure if that's where she plays gmod.

Back in 2002-03, I used to mod fanfiction on Serebii. I'm really glad I don't do that anymore.

I just love it when they threaten to stop writing. You know that they're checking their email ever ten seconds for the "OH NOES!" letters and hoping to find out that half of fandom gave their oppressor hell for stopping them from writing.

Then they always creep back, sometimes with a different name, once they realize nobody gives a shit.

*headdesk*

See, that's a part I never understood, though thank God Ilex trained my little corner of the fandom: How exactly do short summaries of your OT capering about in the same damn situations as the original cast become "fanfic" in the first place? "Look, I've got this really great idea for an epic, but I can't be arsed to write it. Here, read the summaries so you can see all the cool shit I could do if I could be bothered."

Also, the wank becomes a bit funnier if you imagine it's performed by Jesse from TR.
