Fwd: Use of real last names on your "fanhistory" website

Dear partly_bouncyI was recently pointed to your post of earlier today where you state that I asked you to take down the "article" on your "wiki" about me ( Read more... )

Wow. Well um, I have the same question as airemay, is your last name used frequently in fandom? From the comments it looks like it is?

I have (although I haven't used it on my fanfic since probably 2001 or 2002 at the latest) but so do over a dozen of the other people who have entires in her "fanhistory" thing, and none of their real names are mentioned, which makes me think that she's singling me out for some reason known only to her. It's inconsistent, at least, and I really hope she doesn't target any of them, which is why I am replying and screening it, because I don't want her to see it and get ideas to go after anyone.

Unscreened, because I think the risk is now smaller. I hope.

Total eek. I've known you longer than she has and I'm convinced she has waaaayyy too much time on her hands and no life outside of cyberspace. Too sad, really. At least she hasn't exposed your maiden name (and I'm not gonna help her do it. ;-)

I'd never even seen that whole website... it's got a bit of a one-sided slant to it, doesn't it. As someone who was around when a lot of that old stuff was happening (and thankfully a forgotten component), it's strange to see how much of it they've got just wrong.

Reminds me why I gave up following all that stuff back when I was in college.

Sorry about the name stuff.

By the way, law school is in full swing and I'm loving it and i owe wanting to go all to you, so while strange people that don't know you may be getting you down, you influenced a young HP lover to go to law school to pursue her entertainment law dreamin'.

Mildly irrelevant, but is your misspelling of her lj name confined to this post or was it wrong in the email too? Because if it was, she may not have gotten the original message at all.
