Wait a minute... you mean my little bratty fandom FINALLY got put on fandom_wank?

Damn.

Now they're going to expect people to take the "crazy" label after their name seriously.

Yup. My respect for FW is pretty low at the moment. I wanted to point out that the Wikipedia mess didn't only have 'a couple of days' behind it, but I chickened out. I've never posted over at FW; I don't want to ever.

As for the Zutara reaction to the finale, the poster just tacked it on. I suppose there's some good in that. Two consecutive AtLA-related entries on FW would have been a worser outcome. Not to mention had the poster made two separate posts - the link to the KZ LJ com would be a LOT more obvious.

Ah, same here. They are witty and sometimes I find myself checking on the website just for the great snark, but I find myself liking their attitudes less with each comment I read. And it just hit rock bottom after Steve Irwin's death. They snarked a dead man, complete with graphics and 'didn't know him, why should I care' between every other line. I understand that they don't have to mourn him, but at least respect the dead and his wife and kids, you know...?

In response to the wank, I don't really see the big deal, but this might be because I've seen more passionate stupidity on the fanfiction.net boards (i.e., this convoluted "Zutara fan = Nazi" comparison that raised hell). And the thought just occurred to me; why doesn't anyone ever report ff.net board wank? I can't think of a more batshit-tolerant place.
