HOW CAN I MISS THIS???

[lily_winterwood]

OMFG I MISSED OPEN HOUSE! FRAK!

*sigh*

I've posted the first part of the epic spork of BST. Yay. There's a little bit of justice done. Honestly, even AU fics shouldn't be rankled with that much OOC. And I think I have a prospective future as an editor if I can't make it as a scientist... I don't know how many grammatical errors I had to fix. (Pretty frakking sad seeing that I'm most likely the youngest fanwriter in this place...other than cofmanynames )

And a little side note to laurandbillever : No, I'm not going to regret this. It'll be therapuetic, believe me. Like screaming into a pillow, ripping up paper, and breaking pencils.  And you won't even see it, so don't worry.

Testing starts tomorrow. Frak. I'm going to bomb the math section; I can smell it.

oh, and I promised myself not to be involved in this... but this is too much.

First, from some time the fic is being betaed by a freind of mine who is a native speaker and has no problems with spelling and grammar because I talk to her and read her stuff regularly. When someone writes something it is often being fixed in motion. I am 1000% that her fics are not full of mistakes anymore as they used to be. This is called development. A positive thing.

Second- I read all the comments under your poll today.
"I like bitching" is what you said....
I am not sure if I like people bitching.
Last time I checked, I didn't. sorry.

No but I've read the fic. There's still quite a lot of errors left.

I don't generally bitch everyday, it's just that when there's something gloriously terrible floating around, I can't help myself. Remember that troll on battlestar_blog? I couldn't resist that one.

I understasnd that you can't help yourself, can't resist and so on but the truth is, I cannot be sure that when you get bored by bithcing the vamp fic you won't go after someone else, even me. I don't know if you realize that with this behaviour you make people doubtful in your ethics. I just can't trust you. To talk behind someone's back is not really nice, it has never been, it doesn't speak good for you. And I feel bad about it because you obviously can't understand and I so wish you could but anyway, I think it is useless to continue this discussion. Do whatever you want, the consequences will be in your camp. I am unable to help any further. I am not even supposed to say what I am saying now, I really wanted to stay out of it but I guess I can't resist preventing crazy ideas from happening just as you can't resist inventing them... hehe :D

PS. Tell me you are perfect with grammar and I will just go kill myself now.

Don't jump off of that bridge; I never said I was perfect with grammar. I'm not an English major.

Come on, your fics at least have Bill IN CHARACTER. :] That's all I ask for in a fic... they can have the characters do strange things as long as they do that strange thing in their usual manner. I don't care if Bill summoned pink ponies--he has to summon them while acting like himself. That's my main complaint about the fic... Bill's threatening to rape Laura, he's acting all stalkerish, and he treats her like property. It's disgusting and unacceptable in my book.

If you are not perfect with grammar you can't expect someone else to be.

Ok, why are you reading it then?? Why? If you don't like someone, you don't call him to meet you. If you don't like a colour, you don't dress in it. If you don't like romantic movies, you watch horros. If you don't like classic music, you don't go to a concert of Vivaldi.

Why are you reading this fic? I understand if it is a one shot and you don't know what is it about until you read it, but this is a story of over 20 chapters- you read the first 2, you don't like it, you share your dislike, the girl answeres you ( and she did it really politely, I read her answer ) and you move on. Was she rude in any way with you? Did she demand you read her fic and be positive about it? Was she nasty in some other occasion? Tell me if she was.
But ok, you don't like the fic, I don't like it, too- you going to constantly humiliate someone who doesn't even know that you are talking about her behind her back? Publically? Just because you dislike one idea? Don't you even feel a little bad about it? Maybe ashamed? What you are doing is wrong no matter how many excuses you are going to give me here. The fact that you dislike someone's idea doesn't give you the right to humiliate her behind her back. Everyone can do this. It is so easy. And even I have made the mistake to talk about two fics I dislike in my LJ once. But to do it constantly... to actually announce it and make a whole poll about it and to say that I will regularly check the fic in order to have new reasons to bitch about it and to say that this bitching is "justice"?? Lily, what really needs justice here is for me to go and tell the girl what you are doing so she can answer you with the same amount of bitching. This will be justice. Deserved justice. I will not do it, of course, I will never do it because, honestly, I don't want to see her or my friend who likes that fic fic so much hurt by your posts, I am not going to do that to either of them because they don't deserve it. But I have learned that LJ spreads the news really quickly and if this news spreads, you will be "the girl who talks behind people's backs". And it will not be a label you want to be assosiated with. And you don't deserve to be assosiated with it because I know that you can be a great girl.
However, think about it- her fic will be over sooner or later, but she, as an author, will stay in this fandom. Is one fic worth humiliating one person? You will meet her again, won't you feel guilty for all the things you said here?

Let's just stop this, kay? You can pretend it never happened.

Oh, and btw, go take a peep at the FAQ of the PPC. I'm not the only one sporking badfic out there.

[laurandbillever.livejournal.com]

So... the fact that there is a community which allows people to be bitchy is here as an excuse for you? ... interesting. but not convincing at all. You are right- lets stop this before I ask myself what am I doing here. bye for now.
