For f*ck's sake!

Dear supernaturalficI swear to God, it is easier to get Top Secret Security clearance for the RCMP than to fucking get an entry approved for posting in your community. I should know, because I have done both and only succeeded at the former ( Read more... )

“Wait, I was supposed to jump through fiery hoop ‘B’ before I jumped through fiery hoop ‘A’? And all this with a gasoline soaked tea towel on my head? Who WRITES these directions?!? They are like stereo-component instructions in written in invisible ink!”

Something like that, I take it?

*hands you can of gasoline and flare gun*

ratherastory February 9 2011, 19:03:43 UTC

Exactly like that!

*accepts gasoline and flare gun*

Thank you.

Oh man, I know exactly how you feel.

Gnarr.

Frustrated cat is frustrated.

Ohhhh, I have BEEN there.

Ugh.

*snuggles you and sends Cas to smite them for you*

Thank you!

Kafka-esque, is what it is. :P

Heh, I have a tendency to be defensive of supernaturalfic because I was a mod there for a while, but at the same time I know it can be frustrating. Part of it is the way LJ works--that the mod can't just make small changes to the subject line and the post can't just be sent back for revisions, that it has to be deleted and started over. I'm sorry it was migraine-inducing. :(

I specifically tailored my damned entry for them (which I have to do for NO OTHER COMM, where my usual template is enough) and it was STILL rejected.

They can bite me.

embroiderama February 9 2011, 19:56:29 UTC

They should totally bite you. OTOH, your icon is thoroughly of the win! I saw that guy without his partner on an episode of Being Erica and scared the cats with the sound I made. ;)

LOL

I love that pair! They are my favourite peanut gallery ever. \o/

Ive never seen you this snappy.

...........

I LOVE IT!!!

What a load of crap. I only join comms who's submission stuff I think is fair/doable. The rest can screw off. Why make it hard for people to share something they've already worked so hard on? Its stupid.

ratherastory February 9 2011, 19:23:19 UTC

LOL

Actually, this is a lot closer to how I am in real life. Fandom is my happy place, and as a result the entries in this LJ tend to be a lot happier/fluffier than my usual massive doses of sarcasm. :D

flawlessglitch February 9 2011, 19:28:38 UTC

...Dude I just looked at their community info page.

I love how they have a paragraph about not having a huge summary because it could scare away readers...when their ENTIRE PAGE COULD SCARE AWAY ANYONE WHO WANTED TO POST THERE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

W.T.F.Is.That.

ratherastory February 9 2011, 19:31:29 UTC

IDEK, okay? It blows my mind.
