OK, know what? This stops. Right now.
If you want to skip the rant and get right to the consequences, just take a look down until you see red. I am kinda mad.Meta, I'm going to explain a few things to you. After that, we're done here.
Oh, you thought I was serious about skipping to the consequences? Fuck you, read the rant.NUMBER ONE - NOBODY KNOWS WHAT YOU'RE ON ABOUTOffhand, I can think of one - one! - person here who regularly responds to you and knows what Madoka is. That's Alex, and he's very, very angry about it. Whenever you post something, Alex gets completely fucking furious at it. And it's not just because it's you posting it, although I imagine that he has an idea of what to expect from you. It's because he knows what he's talking about, and everything you post seems to him to be not just a total misunderstanding of what the series is about and the underlying themes, but a blatant slap in the face of an anime/manga/whatever that he seems to love. It's like writing a Neon Genesis Evangelion fanfiction and thinking that NGE's about "GIANT ROBOTS ARE SO COOL!!!". Nobody else here knows or cares what you're talking about and comparing things to. A more appropriate place for it would be a Madoka fan forum; I'm mystified as to what it's doing here. Aside from festering.
NUMBER TWO - YOUR SHIT SUCKSEverything you've posted in this thread, 100% of your content, is objectively awful. It's drivel, devoid of quality, cliche-ridden, committing all the worst sins of fanfiction, and sometimes outright fucking creepy (independent severed limbs played for laughs, Jesus Christ). And I'm sure you could comb through the thread and find a bit that
someone said they
kinda liked. Well fuck you, that's not enough. Your shit's bad and you should feel bad.
And fuck, you don't even seem to know what the hell it is you're doing. You call it a fan-manga, but I've seen no evidence of anything beyond some doodles and a few ideas about what the story might be, and you're hell-fucking-bent on describing every last tiny little thing in video game terms, so what the fuck is it? Don't tell me, I don't care.
I'll tell
you what it is: it's gone.
NUMBER THREE - YOU REFUSE TO MAKE IT BETTERAre you even aware of what the point of showing off a work in progress is? Either you want our money or you want our criticism, and ain't nobody going to give you money around here so you must want criticism. One problem with that: You suck at being criticised. You have been told time and again - by much better writers than you - that your 'jokes' are awful, that your 'character' is a mass of cliches, ripoffs and bullshit, that your writing is not just bad but outright offensive to the people who put care and attention into writing the anime that you have so thoroughly shit on. Yet you only seem to respond in two ways: Either you just assert that whoever's disagreeing with you is wrong, or worse: you just throw in more fucking examples, devoid of context, and claim that somehow they prove your point. In fact, you refuse to apply any context at all; you once saw those stupid fucking disembodied Touhou heads that everyone seems to think is cute, so you decide that all severed limbs are cute no matter what. You once heard someone say they like something that has some similarities with this cognitive abortion here, so obviously they should love your manga. No, no and fuck you.
NUMBER FOUR - YOU CAN'T KEEP IT IN ONE PLACEIf you want to discuss things that have their own thread, discuss them in their own thread. The Shoutbox is for conversations, for people to drop in and say hi and just chat. If long, in-depth discussions develop there, they did so as a consequence of the natural flow of conversation.
Then you turn up. What you do in the Shoutbox isn't chatting, it's delivering infodumps. More importantly, this verbal diarrhoea isn't just about something nobody cares about, it's about something that has its own thread! The whole point of having a thread for this shit is that it stays out of the Shoutbox and people who don't care can ignore it! You're walking into people's conversations and delivering a lecture, clogging up the relatively small window and making it unnecessarily hard for anyone else's text to be seen. If you have something you really want to talk a lot about, find the thread it's supposed to go in. If there isn't an appropriate thread, make one. I suggest you start by making a thread for all the cute crap you spew at us on a daily basis; put it there so we can ignore it. Link it in the SB
if you must, but no more shitting on it with buckets of text. That applies to everyone, but you're the worst offender.
ALRIGHT BITCHES LET'S GET SOME CONSEQUENCES UP IN THIS SHIT
1. This thread is locked. If I see any discussion on the topic of this fan-whatever again, whoever started it gets a week ban. That means no new threads and DEFINITELY nothing in the Shoutbox. Take it to a forum that cares.
2. If I see Meta so much as mention the WORD "Madoka", he's banned for a week. Second offence gets a month, third offence is permanent because frankly, I'm just sick of it. He has proven there is nothing useful he can contribute on the subject, and any attempt to do so just enrages other people.
3. Effective immediately, shitting up the SB is a one-day banning offence. No more massive link dumps, no more going on at length about something nobody cares about. If it's that important, make a thread for it so we can have some damn activity on record around here.
4. None of the above is up for discussion. If Alex disagrees with any of it, he's free to do what he wants with it. If anyone, ESPECIALLY Meta, complains, don't be surprised if you suddenly can't post. You have been warned.Note that I say *I*. Alex and the mods may or may not want to go along with this, so maybe if I'm not around you can get away with it. I wouldn't bet on it, though.
People seem to think your bosses are good, Meta. Now, I personally don't give a fuck, but apparently this is some kind of Fraxy board, which means you're a valuable contributor. On the other hand, you're the single worst thing on the forum. This is your last chance. Fuck up again and you're gone.
