As usual, of course, this isn't actually ABOUT what it's about on the surface. A year ago or so, all these people were getting along.
Then, during a period where I was busy and skipping a lot of shit, something must have happened. I remain baffled.
I think that's part of what got me interested despite myself, Plei. I have never really had a conversation with any of these folks, but have read their commentary from time to time, and some of the names of people (who seem not to be getting along at all) are all filed together in my head as part of the same crowd.
When did the fandom_wank community start up? Was the Buffyverse a focus of it early on?

Oh, ages ago. They probably have a history of F_W up there somewhere. Buffy fandom makes it there from time to time, though I think much of the early stuff was Smallville and Harry Potter. Now it's mainly weird little fandoms I've never heard of. Bear in mind that the people linked to on F_W have nothing do do with F_W. F_W posters just link wars when and where they see 'em. People don't try to get on F_W, it just happens. It even happened to Fay once, bless.

That was fun.
Next time I have to polish silver, can y'all remind me to get the soak kind, not the paste kind what gives cramps?
Ta.
Lee, you can have my boxes, sure.
I pick up my keys in less than an hour!

Yeah. It is sort of refreshing that unless a certain entry is specifically linked, I have had to hunt down the Mutant Enemy related wanks.

There's a little crossover something though, isn't there?

It happened to Fay? That's just wronger than wrong. I have seen her post opinions on some of the more controversial issues involved in fan fic, but she's just so lovely, and YissuesMV. *sigh*
Despite what you said above, do you think some people might try to get on f_w?

The only thing I know about silver polish is that it should not be used on French horns.

Generally, very little.

She accidentally stepped in the middle of some wank.
Despite what you said above, do you think some people might try to get on f_w?
Nope, not really. Maybe in the early days, but now? Nope. You will see jokes from some people when they make it on there, about "Damn, I'm a real fan now!" and such, but that's about it.
Jewelry or cutlery?
Jewellery. I think it's typing's fault, really. When I wrote consistently, my hands didn't cramp as much when I did stuff like this.
You're going to tell me not to soak jewellery, aren't you?
Congratulations, Rio!

Between f_w, the actual journal entries of people cited there, and that frienditto thing, I've read so much this morning, I'm probably conflating lj entries with f_w entries.
