Jun. 7th, 2004 09:39 amYou go to sleep with a working mailbox and you wake up to an empty inbox without any of the folders you created. It's not the first time it happens, but usually when I do my stuff it comes back - it hasn't this time. If I don't reply to your comments, it doesn't mean I'm ignoring you, it just means I don't have them anymore.
You go to sleep on a discussion in one of your list, and when you wake up the shit has hit the fan, and one of your favourite dark writer has pulled her fics down!
Dammit, this day isn't starting well in the cyber department! lol
When I tell you that the writers/readers in the SG fandom don't like to dwell in the darker stuff as much as in other fandom! It reached a new level yesterday when someone sent a message where the darker readers/writers were once again accused of being sick and disrespectful and what not.
I usually don't reply to that kind of mail, because I know it's usually the beginning of a nice little flame war, but dammit I was definitely starting to feel tired of people dissing the darker readers, so I replied to the original mail last night, and I'm glad I did now.
Of course, other listsibs joined the bandwagon during the night, and when I woke up this morning, Fra told me to check out the ML because the shit had hit the fan so to speak, and hear this Pepe decided to take her fics down! *sigh*
Why can't these people understand that everyone has different taste, period? Why can't they just accept the fact that some of us love and crave the darker themes, and that it is not a capital offense?
( Okay, so it was longer than what I thought - here be my rant, feel free to ignore )
It's always the same story, but it's getting so old *sigh*
Also, and to be fair, it didn't happen only in the SG fandom of course. Actually, the same thing happened to a writer I really like in TS and who definitely writes on the very kinky side of the road. She pulled her fics down as well, but she created a ML afterward, so I can read her fucking brilliant stories.
Hey! I think it's one of the first time I used the cranky mood... wow.
Okay, now I'm going to read the flist, I'll feel better afterward *g*
And PS; Doesn't Jim look awfully cute in that mood icon?? *cooes at sulky!Jim*
