With that being said, as this was the last thing in my inbox today
from the FFML. With a count of about 15 spam messages, and about 3-4
flames. And other stupid things being posted to a list that used to
be dedicated to the reading, writing and enjoyment of fanfiction.
Dedicated to Anime and Manga series loved by all. I am hereby
formally saying how disgusted with all you CHILDREN out there that
cannot read and understand the rules. I just want to say, GROW UP!
I am going to unsubscribe myself from this list indefinitely. I will
not be doing anything with regard to fanfiction until and or IF I
return to the list. I will continue to write my own fiction and post
to RAAC, but I am tired of the crap. I have been here for many years,
but I have finally had enough. Good bye.
sincerely,

Subject: [FFML][Spam] Re: Re: [FFML] bad posting by someone And A RANT
Gee, didn't Tybalt say something about this alreadly? Folks, today
seems to be a
flame war at people, I don't know why, I don't care why, and I am to
the point of
asking myself, why am I even reading this? (Come to think of it...)
Tybalt, and
others HAVE pointed out Posting PRIVATE replies/or email is not a
good idea (I
can think of exepctions to the rule, of course {One is, someone
asked the list
about Fanfiction, so I went out and got info on Merec. Lacky and
David Weber, and
posted it to the list, becasue I thought the list could use the
info, not just
the person who I sent the info on to...}) So let's end it... and
this list is for
FANFICS(have a rant on something ELSE coming up.) and CC...
Rant for the year.
Folks, someone posted a comment that this is a "family" list...
over the
fiction "Lost" that took information on the Colorado school
shooting. He bitched
about it. *BLINK* What? We're now not allowed to incorpate Real
Life in our
Fics? Gee gotta kill Shattered Faith, and Star Mage for sure. (Don't
worry... I'm
not) Also if this is a "family" fic, that means Lemons shouldn't be
posted... and
they are without anyone complaining... (or at least I HAVEN'T seen
anyone
complain.) Writing incorpates elements that could be "disubuting" to
people... If
you don't like a fic... don't complain that it is based on something
you don't
like, or you find "poitically incorrect" We WRITE FANFICTION... and
Ranma is def.
not PC... and a lot of us have ideas that we want to explore that is
NOT nice,
nor PC... (Shattered Faith... Rape and abuse. Star Mage, War in the
extreme...)
(I have been temped to use elements of the Laramie gay killing in
Star Mage, and
Shattered Faith... and will suggest it to Bryan in fact... for one
of HIS
fictions.) To Lone wolf, I will want to see more of your fic, not
because I like
it... but becasue of the Comment that person made. The comment that
fueled this
rant struck me as a PC flame... and I don't like flames, nor do I
like PC
comments (Who's to say YOUR view of PC is mine... or vice versa...
ANd I KNOW
that the Culture of Nippon does NOT view things the way WE do.
{THink about it,
ALL girls are required to take Home Ec. and have been for a
LOONNNNGGG time,
while boys have only had to take it for what? four or five years?
Also the
treatment of females in Japan {both work and in public} is FARRR
diffenet than
the US codes.)ALL replies to this comment PLEASE reply privatly.
END Rant.

friend from
school. maybe this show how to be nice in public. i'm always
nice to
people and so should you. it's not good to be nasty.
don't tell prez i send this. he'll get mad, but i don't like it
when
people say hurtful things. i don't like fanfiction so i don't
care about
banning.
bye now...

Oh, by the way...I knew I forgot something.
I've killfiled you now, as well. I'd have done so long ago, if
it weren't
for the fact that I felt the need to be capable of rebutting
your pointless
arguments on the list anytime you decided to argue a point in
favor of the
losing side. Your arguments have no merit, nor any intelligence,
but even a
fool can appear imposing.
However, I grow tired of you, and I wish to have no further
communication
with you, nor do I feel the need to continually rebut your lame,
useless
arguments. We both know you're a toothless dog barking at a
mailman.
I wouldn't waste my time replying if I were you...you're
killfiled. Have a
lingering, painful, see-you-in-Hell kind of death, you
obnoxious, clueless,
sad little pissant.
My .sig would usually go here, but you're not worthy.
