Posted here because although it takes place in a fandom community, it has fuck-all to do with fandom.
lotr_addict is an "elite" community on LJ. Members must fill out an application that asks basic questions about LOTR, the answers on which community members vote. This is a way to weed out the squealing Leggy fangirls without being too exclusive. Generally quiet, the comm has more application posts than discussions, but there's nothing wrong with that.
Upon one or two prior occasions, people have applied, gotten "no" votes, and then wanked. These threads end pretty quickly, but this one decided to latch on and not let go.
24lifecrisis is 14 (yes, a minor, but these posts are in the community and are thus fair game) and posts his application. He is not the first under-15 to do so, and some of the others have been accepted. People are not impressed with his lack of grammar and other things, and vote no. He replies with several snarky retorts, which are then deleted.
Deciding that the community is unfair, he breaks the rules about non-member posting, compares himself to Martin Luther, and nails his protests to the community door. (I'm in there with some lengthy replies, but I don't think they're wanky, just long-winded. I'm not moving this to i_wank; I'll take my chances.)hckyboy00 declares his patience with 24lifecrisis to be over.
Fun times are had by all.
Bonus: Ranting about how "GRAMMER" is not important.
