In response to the recent ffr/ffrr grudgewank

[ansela_jonla]

It's become obvious that certain grudgewanky persons who shall remain nameless have no problems with hypocritically causing trouble for other people under the rallying call of Won't Somebody Please Think Of The Children?'

They've already fucked things up for the under-18s who were members of fanficrants, irritating several parents who used that comm as a

I don't write smutfics and would avoid putting them on ffnet in the first place just in case if I did, so I'm not sure I can comment. (Even if the rules aren't really enforced, I feel safer sticking to them.) But if it was me, I'd take the smut down in advance and just look innocent if someone points the finger. It also can't hurt to make another account - the more the merrier even if nothing happens to the old one.

I started modding a comm with one of the wankers before I realised who they were and what they were doing. I don't want to abandon it, though, and it's not like I actually have to interact with them, so I figure it's okay to stay ... thoughts?

Unfortunately, I believe ffn's response to reports is to take the fics down automatically, without even looking at the content. I've heard of it happening before.

I'd stick it out. You stayed out of the whole mess (you're a better person than me) and if they choose to hold a grudge just because of what comms you belong to, that just shows their continued immaturity.

Put the fics on the new site, then, and put a link to it in your profile so your fans can find it.

I don't really want to be associated with people like that, so if I had to actually TALK to them I'd be leaving, but I guess it's okay since I don't.

Speaking of which, I took one of my MSTings off LJ during the Strikethrough bull, since it featured a sex scene with a character who may or may not have been meant to be underage (the original fic's disclaimer said something about in the TV show he's thirteen but the book doesn't mention his age, which could have been a really clumsily-phrased way of saying he's meant to be older). Since they've stopped all that wankage now, think I should put it back up?

[ansela_jonla]

I think I might do that.

I wouldn't risk it. You never know when Strikethrough will happen again.

I need to put it up somewhere, though, since I'm trying to move my website and the new host doesn't allow explicit material. Think I can get away with it on Dreamwidth? They don't screen for content and they say anything's allowed as long as it's within US law, and I'm pretty sure this is legal since A) it's clearly fiction and B) because of the aforementioned probable attempt at a disclaimer.

[ansela_jonla]

Dreamwidth would be a good place for it, yeah.

[chelonianmobile]

I'll see if I can get hold of an invite code, then. Been planning to put my PPC stuff on a separate journal anyway, and a Dreamwidth one might come in handy for other stuff too.

[ansela_jonla]

I still have a single code left, if you want that.

[chelonianmobile]

Okay, wanna PM it to me?
