Right now the only way to add any websites to be blacklisted is if you are friended.

And if you look, no one on their friends list has friended them back. They might be commenting anyhow, of course, but my guess? Is that they have nothing or very little to do with the concept, and are just waiting the crazy person out.

Thrive to spite them

There were some people who friended them and then de friended them as fandom scruples got more militant and freak ass---I think when fandom scruples said they'd start blacklisting people who linked to NC-17 stories without password protecting or friendslocking.

I look more rad than Lutheranism

Is it worth complaining to the LiveJournal PTB, on the grounds that the blacklisting -- being done by people who are essentially anonymous -- is harmful to other LJ users (i.e., the ones being blacklisted)?

Just a thought.

I must obey the inscrutable exhortations of my soul—Calvin and Hobbs

I wonder how fandom_scruples handles what they consider explicit material written by the under-17 set? 'Cause I was writing hard R (which she or they claim to be cause for blacklisting) when I was 15. The only reason it wasn't online was because there was no internet to speak of then. It wasn't good smut. It was, in fact, cringingly bad Battlestar Galactica smut, and has long since gone the way of all paper. But I'd quite easily be writing cringingly bad HP smut if I was a 15 year old today. Would they blacklist me for allowing myself to see my own lj entries?

I've probably given this more thought than the fandom_scruples instigator(s).

I'm terrifically busy with my ennui.

I believe people are complaining to LJ, but I think LJ's position is that the people being harassed (i.e., those on the blacklist) need to make the complaint. Which I'm sure some of them will.

So I'm gonna do the fic commentary thing. Except ... I wanna do what I wanna do, not what people are asking for. Which is selfish of me.

So if it's explicit and a kid could get to it without making a formal statement that he's over 17, you're on the list.

I wanna be blackballed.

I bop to Wittgenstein. -- Nutty

connie, that was my reaction, too. Especially since I have-- only quite recently-- written the Dreaded HP Darkfic and Smut for the first time.

I'm sort of hoping that in many years time, I'll be able to look back at fandom_scruples and say "ah, yes, well do I remember that. My first HP fandom scuffle, you know, my dears. They don't make them like that any more." Only, of course, nutcases will still be like that.

How are you me? You need to stop that. Only I can be me. ~Kara

I signed up for an AtS challenge and have to write about a character I don't remember a lot about. I don't have the episodes dealing with the character (vague enough?). Does anyone know of a resource site dealing with individual character's timelines or significant events out there anywhere that's sorted by character rather than episode?
