Man, I miss everything fun. I don't pay attention to kfm for one night as I go raiding with my WoW buddies and I miss all of the wank. Apparently someone took offense at this live journal post, and posted a rant all over the boards. The other mods deleted it, but I woke up this morning to this review (which wasn't even posted to the right story I might add) in my in box...
Unfortunately, it was taken down at up at kfm, but I think it needs to be enshrined here for posterity, because it's a truly awesome thing to behold.
Hey kiddies, Marmarduk here. Long-time lurker, first time poster with some wankiness I thought you’d all enjoy.
Was surfing the Rat’s journal and came upon Prisoner_24601 (such moniker being a laugh unto itself), and found something I thought it would b-hoove all you sycophantic little brutes to read. It appears ‘Pris’ and a minion wrote some silly story about some silly Sue-Revan and her undying love for Old Man Canderous. And one reviewer wrote ONE line about his displeasure with the whole femRevan oeuvre. And that one little line has inspired our be-sainted Prisoner to post a Live Journal entry containing no less than 25 comments (at last count) deriding, insulting, and generally wanking at the bloke who left that review.
And the review? “Why does everybody have to write stories with Revan as a woman, it just don’t work dammit.”
Oh no he did-ent! Oh yes he did!. But, Holy Zealous Bitchery, Batman! That’s all? No ranting, expletive-laden review? No volley of insults? No threats or attacks? Just that? Yep, kiddies, just that. It rather begs the question: if one sentence expressing an unfavourable opinion begets this much wank, imagine what an actual review might’ve spawned? But here’s what this teeny wittle comment did engender… (and my apologies to KnightoftheWord for besmirching your good name. But it’s for a good cause, n’est ce pas?)
To wit: KotW is a clueless idiot with poor grammar.
He’s bitter because “we (other mods on KFM presumably) bounced his crappy and amazingly pretentious story from the kfm fic queue.” (And you all wonder why it takes so long for your stories to get posted. Well, look no further! Last I checked in the Submissions Guidelines a fic shouldn’t be withheld because a mod thought it ‘crappy’ and ‘amazingly pretentious.’ But hey, what’s some self-important censorship among friends, right?)
KotW desecrates sacred ground by leaving a ‘non-relevant’ opinion on the holy altar of her review page. (And I’ll just bet he didn’t even have the common decency to give her a thumb’s up! The bastard!)
KotW MIGHT have expressed a similar opinion as another user! Egad, what a criminal mastermind she’s dealing with! Fortunately for us, Detective Pris is on the case and has reported this heinous crime to other mods. Fear not, law-abiding, fem-Revan adoring citizens, the Offender shall be flogged most heartily with the banstick! Ref: Section 12a, subsection 3 of the Fanbrat’s Guide to Self-Righteous Idiocy clearly states: “Decreeing that femRevan is not canon and insisting on fics that consist of something besides a femRevan screwing every possible combination of male counterparts on that Love Boat we call the Ebon Hawk constitutes immediate banishment, nay, EXILE (winkwink) from Kotorville, until such time as the mods deem appropriate. (Or until the bansticks have been forcibly removed from their asses, whichever comes first.”)
What else? Oh yes, my favourite line: (You can cut the irony with a vorpal spoon!) Dearest Prisoner writes: “I really do hope he's a bored teenager, and not someone who cares so much about his dumbass viewpoint about a fictional Star Wars character that he feels the need to fight the establishment. Someone taking this stuff that seriously would be far scarier lol.”
lol, indeed. Let us all pray that KotW is merely a bored teenager with a dumbass viewpoint because if he were to take this stuff this seriously—seriously enough to merit let’s say an entire LJ rant to one sentence—than that would be truly scary, now wouldn’t it?
And because I would never post all of this without backup documentation, I present the link to the aforementioned Live Journal entry so that you might read it all for yourselves. http://prisoner--24601.livejournal.com/11991.html
Ah, that was fun. Rather extraneous waste of my time, but :dramatic sigh: someone needs to bestride the Steed of Justice every now and then lest the poor beast succumb to lack of use, or hoof rot…or something.
And now I must ride off into the sunset, my dear kiddies, since my tenure here is surely to be cut short and myself clobbered with the banstick in short order. Censorship? Perhaps. They are protecting one of their own, after all. Ah, the machine rolls on, doesn’t it? But only as far as you let it.
And to sweet Prisoner…What? Isn’t it SO AWESOME??????!!!!!1111!1!!!1eleventy!1!!!1!1!?

Just to set the record straight, I wasn't the mod that bounced the story in question from the fic queue. In fact, most of the time, I'm a lazy ass mod while the other mods do all of the hard work and do most of the fic screening. With rare exceptions when I'm trying to be helpful, the only fics I tend to screen are for the Dueling Circle Challenges. But I definitely stand by the decision to do it. It did suck. It was horribly pretentious, badly written and to top it off, it had numerous grammar, punctuation and spelling errors. It wasn't even a story, it was simply that dude's rant about the Jedi Council.
I'm not entirely sure why you've got your knickers in a twist. We let his moronic trolling comment stand, and he wasn't banned from kfm (the dude who was banned was another user, months ago, and again - not banned by me). He's free to post that to my story, I'm free to mock him on my own personal live journal (although I'd hardly say it was a rant - I expressed my amusement, other people responded and we all laughed about it). Just like I'm free to mock you here.
Personally, I think you're hilarious. Even though you've taken comments out of context, misrepresented the majority of that post, tried to stir up shit over on kfm, and generally been an all around wanker, I find you extremely amusing. Clearly, you don't intend for people to take you seriously, otherwise you might have chosen a way to air your complaints that people might have listend to (such as responding here to the actual lj post or contacting the mods about my behavior directly)
Okay, marmypoo... you're obviously reading this lj. Feel free to troll away here. I've obviously pissed you off, and yet you're too chicken shit to come here to rant at me directly. Let's hear what you have to say when you haven't been silenced by the oppressive mods over at kfm.
