*sigh*
It looks as though I missed rather a lot while I was away!
Not least, a major tactical shift. Ironic that it was only a couple of posts ago that I gave raisedbymoogles the following answer:
"5. Under what circumstances do you think any kind of truce with the Autobots could be reached ( Read more... )

I know that. You know that. Galvatron's typist knows that. Unfortunately, the fanthings do not know that. It seems they cannot differentiate between "loyal to a commander" and "loyal to a specific person." I suspect this is because none of them have ever been loyal to anything, let alone been made to question where their loyalties lie.

In fanthing words: "bcoz glavatorn iz TEHH MEEENIE!!!!!!1112"
In saner words, these people think that, well, because they don't like Galvatron they can write him clean out of a story. They seem to have forgotten to take into account - or simply don't know - just how close to impossible it is to kill him. It seems to stem from a sense of entitlement: the fanthing's thoughts seem to go something along the line of "I am writing this. I am special. Because I am special, I can do whatever I want with this story, no matter how ludicrously absurd it is, because I want to." Idiots.
As for MPreg ... well ... it's short for "male pregnancy," and it pretty much does what it says on the tin. Luckily there isn't as much around here as in some fandoms [It happens so much in Lord of the Rings some people have taken to referring to Legolas as Pregolas]. I've never seen a fic in which Galvatron or Cyclonus gets knocked up, but I have seen a fic where Galvatron apparently got some random Seekerboi up the duff and then angsted wetly about it. In character? I think NOT.

My thanks for the attempt to explain... though all of this is still worlds away from making any comprehensible sense. I shudder at the thought that I share a universe with these creatures, let alone that any of them take an interest in me!
*wings twitch upwards slightly, in a threat posture*
They had better hope they never have the opportunity to encounter me face to face! *clenches fist*

What Cyclonus said. *doesn't understand how a Seeker could be "up the duff", but finds the thought disturbing nonetheless* o_O
