Aug. 20th, 2009 11:18 amI can't believe this. A bunch of people who felt entitled with their oppinions, wanted
ontd_ai to be changed back to its roots, meaning more hate and less love, all-fanfic-is-bad, and generally more anarchy in the house.
And what did they do? Instead of openly working to change the community, they created a conspiracy with some of the com mods to change it, introducing hate posts, trying to get appreciation posts banned and finally, banning all fan fic. After the fanfic ban, one of the mods posted a poll asking the members' oppinion on the issue, and 84% wanted the fic. Did we get it back? No.
Fandom Wank, here we come!
ontd_ai was the only com that I know that managed to successfully (or so I thought) mash up happy fandom love, snarky fandom hate, general fan activity and fan fiction fandom. Now it looks like it did not succeed. In the long run, maybe it's better that fan fiction was driven away, now there is hope that the fan fic people will negotiate their own way and culturate AI fic to better.
But will
ontd_ai cut the love and go back to the
ohnotheydidnt -style hate? I hope not, because where would I go then? Definitely not to Idol Forum, that's a snake pit.
Edit: Two mods who apologized, three resigned. Long live the
ontd_ai... I guess.
