  • [dreamwidth.org profile] whyareyoulikethis: [in fangasmic] [fandom] That Is The Ugliest Effing Storyfinders Post I've Ever Seen - But this entire episode left a horrible taste in everybody's mouth because this isn't just a case of laughing at a ridiculous storyfinders post -- this is tricking people into participating, people who aren't in on the joke, and leveraging their goodwill (and, let's face it, your relative popularity in that fandom) for your own amusement. -

  • [livejournal.com profile] cherrybina: The philosophy of squee - Fandom is my happy place. My escape. The little corner of my life where I come to have lots and lots of ridiculous fun and not deal with anything that makes me unhappy. And look, you guys. I get that life is not always sunshine and fuzzy bunnies all the time, but you know what? FANDOM CAN BE. -

    And thank you!

    (FWIW, I try to link to the more active version of a post when I can, and assume that people who're interested enough to read and discuss will see the usual link to the crosspost in whichever version we post the link to. But it's an improvised solution to the issue, not exactly a policy.)
