Quote from: Spark Of Spirit on April 23, 2012, 12:00:33 AMWhy are so many fans of it so off the rocker?

As someone who is in the Sonic fandom, I have been asking this question for well over a decade.
I'm sure RSW has some good stories about the Mario fandom, too.

Sonic's is just the most visible one due to the bad press.

I don't want to be a douchebag to this guy, so I won't do any more commentary now that he knows about it.

Rynnec

I'm gonna guess that he wasn't to thrilled with your commentary?

He was a good sport about it. Here's what he said:

QuoteLMFAO well I see you hated my story but atleast you took time out to read before you made a judgement. Not much else to say.other than I?m sorry you hated A Twist in Fate

His politeness got me thinking... I didn't really expect this guy to see my commentary. And now that he can read it, it's like I'm being a dick to another author's face. Sure, he may write about horses having sex with humans, but this situation actually kind of upsets me. My response to him:

QuoteOh wow, I?m surprised you actually found this page! Thanks for being a good sport about it, man. Don?t let assholes like me get you down. :P

Really, if you love writing ? no matter what the subject may be ? you should keep at it. I am incredulous about certain things involving horse/human intercourse, but your story clearly has fans, so don?t let my antagonistic sense of humor prevent you from continuing.

In fact, if you were offended by my piece, I will gladly remove it. The more I think about things, the more I am concerned that I have been a total cock to another author, and that makes me angry at myself.

Let me know, and have a good one.

I need to be a good dude about this. If he really wants me to, I will absolutely pull the article.

What a polite reply. Sometimes the internet CAN be normal!

Yeah, I was pretty shocked. If he'd entered rage mode, I probably would have ridiculed him further and done more commentary, but now I feel kinda' bad for posting that piece. :lol:

Foggle

So apparently he thought my commentary on his story was funny and doesn't want me to take it down. Awesome.

Kiddington

So... are you going to do another one?  :awesome:

Foggle

Most definitely. But not for this guy's story.

I'm going to find something much worse. Much worse.

Rynnec

Cupcakes? Or is that too predictable?

I haven't really been to this site in more than a year, but this is just plain ridiculous. It's times like this where I wish more webpages took the Maddox approach of just paying out of their own pocket for servers instead of bending over backwards for sponsors.

I'd put explicit ads for scat porn on AR before I'd censor the content of our blog posts. :-\

As someone who frequents the TVtropes forums, I can safely say that the butthurt is ridicolous for all sites of the argument.

Fast Eddie can seriously give Harley a run for her money in the incompetence department. And way to make yourself look like a proffesional by calling certain works "Pedoshit" jackass! Really mature of you.

Kiddington

I don't think I've ever really taken the time to even look at TV Tropes. All I've ever heard about is how terrible it is, so that would explain why.

TVTropes stopped being fun once they took stuff away like Troper Tales, as well as locked topics like the Sonichu one.
