Greetings,
Great Googly Moogly!
Has this ever spun out of control or what?

Let me introduce a scenario.

This is Bob. -_-

Bob has a story. =FC_=FC

Bob writes a story. -_-

It _IS_ Bob's story. =


People tell Bob how to write Bob's story.

Bob doesn't like this. O_O

So Bob says so.

Yay Bob.

How does he say so?

Simple. He writes another story to relax his mind so he can find, once ag=
ain,
the original story he was writing.

I reiterate: Yay Bob.

This whole thing smacks of ego, 'Old Guard' and lots of other knickerKnac=
ker.
(What is Knicker Knacker? It's those little piece of Crud in your Cracker=

Jacks box.)

In no place whatsoever did C.Jones say anything even slightly insulting o=
r
deragatory anywhere. I view his _very_ carefully written comments as, of =
all
things, a Rorshach test. In other words, you brought to them what you alr=
eady
had with you. =


It is C.Jones story. HIS story. HIS HIS HIS HIS HIS!
I cannot emphasise how much this is a critial aspect of a storywriters py=
che.
Good lord, you people go balls to the wall(with good reason) if plagerism=
 is
discovered. C.Jones felt the controls of HIS story were slipping away. He=
 took
step to correct it. Than he said so.

The only excuse(in my opinion) for this ..rather disaproving behaivior be=
ing
exihibited is if C.Jones sent messages to all attempts at feedback summed=
 up
as: GO WAY! YOU BAD PERSON! YOU STOOPID PEIRSON! I DO NO NEED YOU TALKING=

STOOPID TALK!! MY STORY! MINE! I IS A GENUZZ!!

Now if that happened I'd recomend he be sedated.

It didn't.

His story people.
His.

Not yours, not anyone else, C.Jones.

If you don't like it, if you don't like the actions of C.Jones the answer=
 is
very, very simple. (And it is repeated in a billion fanfics, in a billion=

genres over the internet.) Do Not Read It.


Of course I'm biased. I'll openly admit that. =


C.Jones is a bud.

Good lord, commenting on someone's actions and you don't even know the bl=
oke.
If anything kudos should be given(IMO) for the carefully phrased notes an=
d
admittances C.Jones made. =


Yay C.Jones.

Now.

Write more.

More! NOW!

Plleeeeaassee!

I'm going to say it again, it just sounds so cool.

GREAT GOOGLEY MOOGLEY!

I remain, as always,
Mad-Hamlet


There is only one thing that can damn me.
That can send me down in a swirling maelstrom of fire and pain.
And it is not the word of Man.
And it is not the lessons and rules of the Church, hypocrites every one.
And it is not the words of God, nor the judgements of Angels.
And it not a fair tribunal of my 'peers' that can find me guilty of crime=
s
immortal.
No. =

I can only be accused, judged and damned by my own Soul.
And I would never be so betrayed.

Mad-Hamlet
