Concerning certain recent issues

Mar 15, 2011 09:29

OK, here's the thing guys.

Certain things about moderating this meme make me uncomfortable. So far I've gotten by, and most of you are lovely, but it's gotten to a point on one particular issue where either this needs to stop happening or I don't think I'm going to be able to continue and keep my state of mind OK. Because it's seriously starting to ( Read more... )

Whoa, this meme has so much wank. Is this because it is generally a younger audience? I wonder about this fandom sometimes...

But I think you're doing the right thing, mod. Character bashing is a no-no, for reals. Freezing prompts was something I was going to suggest, but you're already doing it.

Seriously, people, grow up.

I'm going to attempt to delve into this meme without wincing.

Good luck with that. It's pretty hard not to run into some form of wank at this point.

I think it is the younger audiences. Some of the more... avid arguers seem to be either trolls or plain immature.

The sad thing is, a lot of people seem to know how to use the big letters. I really, really wish they didn't. I can't avoid wank as easily when it takes up half the page...

I'd say they add personality, but I'm not sure I want the meme to have that kind of personality.

I'm glad you're doing this. The meme should be a fun place to write, not somewhere for people to take their anger out on the characters. I hope this helps with some of the negativity going on, and I hope it helps you feel less stressed about the whole thing.

Hm... Weird. I didn't know there was was anti-Wally stuff... I like Wally. He's amusing... I myself an Megan hater. ( I HATE her) But understand that she has good qualities and destroying her character just for the sake of doing so is stupid. Instead of making anti-fics, why don't people make pro-fics... Kaldur and Superboy for instance... And if you just need to add it Megan getting jealous, a natural response, or getting sad about it, another natural response... Hating on characters is fine, but hating on characters in writings gets annoying.

Anyway, that's my take on the subject...
PS: People lets make more Superboy/Kaldur fics... I really fucking need some.

I'm sorry that you've had to deal with all of this. You've been doing a really awesome job with the meme, and I hope people treat you more considerately after this.
