OMG I was devestated when she killed Fred. I'm not so sure if I was more devestated for me or for poor George. Why? Why? Why? Not the twins. I loved Fred and George so much.
I totally agree!!! I don't understand why it had to be one of the twins!
That's the thing that is really going to bug me about the way this book ended, it's going to spawn a whole bunch of really bad fanfic. NOT to say yours is going to be bad in the least (you saying it just reminded me of something I said when I finished reading the book), but I've read some of the HP fanfic out there and...YIKES. But, hell, even I was thinking about writing something along the same lines of the Weasley family, especially George, finding out and how they moved on as a family and Percy (about whom I completely forgot until he came through the tunnel) rejoining the family.
I wish there was a way for her to rectify some of this. Unless she truly is happy about what she wrote, then...oh well. I WANT MORE STORY!
With George finding out about Fred though I don't think I would be able to really, faithfully grasp the full weight of horror and devastation he would be feeling.
*@#%&@#*%@&%*%^!!!! I can't believe she killed Fred, I just can't get over it!!!!!!!
Hey, Alicia, I had no idea where to post this, but hopefully this is okay. I've been approached by another mod concerning dantheorangeman and his tendency to, well, spout bullshit. The other mod asked for Dan to be removed as a mod from ontd_polticial. I'm not sure what to do. I just wanted to know what you thought. I have no experience with such matters. :/ I'm also asking all the other mods at ontd_p what they think. Go ahead and comment back about this. Thanks doll.
First, I've been meaning to message you about creating either a mod comm or an e-mail address like on ONTD. For things like this, or deciding about certain posts, or ways for the members to get in touch with us, etc.
About Dan, I'm not sure. He does have a tendency to spout a lot of bullshit. But what was the specific complaint against him? Is it about the way he treats people or just the fact that he says a lot of shit that doesn't make sense. Honestly, I don't think I've read anything he's said that I haven't heard from other woefully misguided conservatives (including the made up facts and statistics to try and support an argument).
I just need a little more information before I can make a decision on that one because I have yet to see him be completely out of line with with anyone. He just pisses us off, A LOT.
Yeah, we've been looking into weeatpoliticians at gmail.com.
He just pisses people off, true. His arguments always boil down to "read the Bible" or "take a sociology/religion/science class". His sources are biased. And last night he deleted a post with a comment war that he was losing. He apologized and reposted the entry, and claimed he didn't know not to delete posts. So I'm not sure. I just have no idea what to do next. I've never modded such a big community before. :/ I'm glad I've got support.
I'm thoroughly sick of his "arguments" he says a lot of crap and then tells everyone else they should do their research. I don't even comment to him anymore because it would be a complete waste of time. But I'm not at all sure if that's a good enough reason to remove someone as mod.
Uhm...wow. I just went through that post. I can't even defend him. That, to me, is actually a ban-able offense.
If we want to be nice, we give him a very clear final warning and if he continues he's removed.
Or, we don't be nice, he broke the rules, he's removed now. (This tends to be my choice in matters like this, however, I'm trying to stand back of the whole thing so as not to seem biased, because the boy does piss me off something fierce.)
I also think we need to bring the rules into our own userinfo instead of linking to the ONTD rules. Not that I buy his BS excuse of "not knowing," but it gives anyone who uses that less of a leg on which to stand. Also, I think some of their rules contradict the faqs in our rules. At least the racism thing

I've only even written one: http://buttercup31.livejournal.com/76178.html. It was for AMC because I was so pissed off at the way the story went.
With George finding out about Fred though I don't think I would be able to really, faithfully grasp the full weight of horror and devastation he would be feeling.
