How fun. An asshat in the evening.
Sep. 15th, 2005 02:31 amLook at me, I'm the ff.net police!
Got a review from this charming person as well.
The following review has been submitted to: The Official Fanfiction University of Middleearth Chapter: 1
From: The Cleric 007 (thecleric007@hotmail.com)
I do hope you realize what a monster of TOS violation this fic has started. I just went through all of them, reporting each one. Because these are blatantly
interactive fics and, no matter how good they are, do not belong at
Joy. So if OFUM gets yanked (given that ff.net sometimes don't even seem to look at the reports before yanking a fic), you know who to thank.
(And wouldn't surprise me if this is the one who got OFUM2 yanked either.)

Want I should smack 'em with a quahog, Boss?

Date: 2005-09-15 01:15 am (UTC)And I thought the "no interaction" rule was to prevent the review pages from becoming a message board and eating up bandwidth, or just to stop people from using FF.net more for conversing with friends and fans rather than doing actual creative writing, or something...

Words fail.
I'm pissed off.
Self-rightous little brat.

Date: 2005-09-15 01:59 am (UTC)Thanks. I must admit I find this a little idiotic myself - one thing is that he/she reported me, but to then go on some fucking crusade and post about it at GAFF? geez, asshat much?

Date: 2005-09-15 01:27 am (UTC)Why on earth do they have such a hate on for OFUM? As you and others pointed out, it doesn't really violate and ff.net rules, and I agree that the last thing anyone should be doing is getting GOOD fic pulled from there. O_o I wonder who they are?
What an asshat.

My guess, theyre a Mary Sue author, and she wanted to save her own ass, and went on attacking fics better than theirs, with minor violations of the rules whichwerntevenrealruleswhentheficswerewritten!
Sorry, I didnt think that they were worthy of the space bar telling of their stupidity...
If OFUM get yanked, hundndreds will rise up, and stone her... with trout...

Date: 2005-09-15 01:42 am (UTC)"Getting reporting"? "Chunck"? You'd think that people who do that kind of stuff could at least speak proper grammar and spell. But then I suppose that would overload their brains, wouldn't it? *sighs and tosses over chocolate*

I'd be more upset, but I've got access to other archives. (Even if I hate them at times...)

Date: 2005-09-15 02:34 am (UTC)This person clearly does not understand interactive fiction! OFUM wasn't like a freakin' roleplay.
::kicks person in shins. Reserves the right to kick person in worse places if s/he reported OFUCSI too:: Sorry, feeling slightly possessive, even if I am falling way behind on that next chapter ::shiftyeyes::
What the hell. ::kicks person in various unpleasant locals anyway::
I've got no problem reporting the heck out of brazen attempts to undermine the NC-17 rule, but come ON. OFUM is goodfic, not breaking rules, and, and, it's goodfic.

I found said vigilante's author profile. I read a fic of said vigilante. It had a single spelling error, and two cases of grammatically incorrect sentences (these were for the sake of impact, but still, rules are rules, no?).
I reported said fic and left a review explaining why. Constant vigilance! Zero tolerance!
Seriously. Don't mess with me, I'm an English teacher. :D
I hope OFUM doesn't get pulled. To be honest, I don't care if the fic I reported gets pulled or not--just hope my point was made. Ah well.
One week to go for me on my prac... then we will be able to talk again, glory be!
