12:52p - "You seem surprised I'm ranting on a ranting community. This is funny."
…No, no it's not. Really.

( Now with tldr Author's Notes! Feel free to scroll right on past them! )

[info]cathowl posts a tl;dr frothing rant about ff.nets's rules oppreshun on [info]fandom_rant. At first the reaction is lukewarm bemusement and a passing mention of rules.
Somewhere along the line things take a slightly wanktastic detour, mostly due to [info]cathowl suffering a mildly toxic case of Just Not Getting It:
[info]pyratejenni asks [info]cathowl if he will post again when ff.net boots him off for not following "their ridiculous totalitarian rules".
[info]nevadafighter points out that the OP has mistaken [info]fandom_rant for some other community.
Finally, [info]esorlehcar would rather not have [info]fandom_rant be the dumping grounds of entitlement ragewhen a user is caught breaking rules.
[info]onaga finally points out that the OP may have meant to post this in [info]fanficrants.

I'm wondering if this will peter off or grow into a full blown case of flounce disease, myself. Good times. All that is missing is "Do you get the point of this community at all?!?!" to complete this teeny tiny circle of wank.

[ETA for great justice:]

Author's notes in question are here

Finishing Move! While eventually adopting a more reasonable tone, [info]cathowl pulls the Asperger's card Oh, [info]cathowl why? You were almost done mopping up after yourself.

current mood: *thud*
