Fanlib ninja evil

So I wrote my first piece of bible fanfic and just posted it on Fanlib. I'm tempted to give no link, but then interested people would have to click through the site and give them extra hits, so it can be found at http://www.fanlib.com/fanfic/Traditional_Values___The_Daughters__Lot/2edlf7 (best viewed with Adblock or some similar program so they don't get advertising dollars).

I'm planning to alternative posting two story sets, "traditional values" and "contemporary themes". Because fuck them, being gay is not a "contemporary theme" that needs the same rating as small children being raped to death by zombie dogs. You want stuff that's inappropriate for kids? That'd be the actual bible, thanks.

And because I want to be noisy and annoying about it, rather than just post and move along, I toddled off to the forum they nicely set up for spamming about your fanfic, and innocently posted about my awesome new fanfic.

The other people in that thread... They... My God, what's WRONG with them? I've heard of selective hearing, but selective reading?

You've unfortunately just summed up most of the threads on Fanlib. They're a special breed of batshit over there.

(Personally...I'm starting to wonder if a number of the posters aren't on payroll. Normally this would be complete conspiracy-theory crap, but Fanlib has had people go around to other sites under false names pretending to be actual enthusiasts, so seeding their own forums wouldn't be much of a change. It would go a long way toward explaining why there seems to be a set of people who all make the exact same lucky misinterpretations of stuff.)

Kill it. Kill it with poison and fire.

No! Don't you understand, they're staffed by hellspawn. YOU'RE JUST PLAYING INTO THEIR HANDS!!!

We need holy water for this one.

This is true.

Well, no explosion so far - just someone who doesn't get the concept of writing exactly as much as you need to to get the idea across. Damnit. I'm far too impatient.

I'm Eva_Cantrell, by the way, lest you think there might actually be someone with half a clue frequenting that site.

...that's strangely good to know. It actually was pretty worrisome to imagine someone sane was there.

And yes, disappointing. I'll have to step right up to writing about a bisexual Jesus who gets Judas and Mary hated by the rest of the apostles out of spite.
