Oh...my.

[roxy]

You know, every once in a while, you read a story that makes you want to, oh, I don't know, find out who the person is, get their address, go to their home, duct tape them to the floor and beat the soles of their feet until they swear in letters written in their own blood never to write again. And no, no, it's not someone *any* person on my flist knows, I promise you.
And don't ask me where I read the story. You know I won't tell. *ppbbbllt*

I'm so with you. Though, currently I'd like to do that with a so-called "artist".

Eeep!

*pets you*

Have you seen what I made you for your story?

ETA: I see you did. :-D

Believe me, I totally understand the feeling.

Holey Smokes. Remind me not to get on your bad side, because - ouch. What was wrong with it? Was it just that badly written or offensive in some way? I ask cause I am really nosy AND because I am hoping to avoid this awful fate in my own writing. *g*

Now I'm terrified of sending you my fics. What happens if you don't like one. o.O

i've read stories i reacted to a bit like that that were well-received by their fan base, so i dunno. this must've been one stinkin' story you read. *g*

Oh I can so relate! Seriously, some people just don't understand.

I'll hold 'em, while you beat them. That's if you need me to.

[tabaqui]

Heeeeeee!
Yes.
Mostly, a story so poorly written as to require beating means i can't even finish it.

I've wanted to flog a few writers for handing out uber-depressing 'everybody dies' kind of stuff, that's for sure......

I've had the misfortune to read some real stinkers in my time -- across different fandoms, too. Horrible writing and zero characterization has actually made me give up on a few fandoms completely. :( It's sad coz, on one hand I want to encourage everyone to express themselves, but, on the other hand. . . some people just cannot, for the life of them, write. Or at least shouldn't be allowed to post such absolute drivel as I've come across over the years.

Sorry 'bout the rant, there. *sheepish grin*

[ferdalump.livejournal.com]

Yes! That!!

*nods*

lmao, ohhhh Roxy. I have come across more of those than I'd like to think about. They make me twitchy. *g*

I have no idea of the specifics of what you're talking about here, and all I can say is this: I haven't posted any fic recently, so thank god Roxy's not talkin' about me!!!
