Knightus isn't in a position to post to Fandom Wank. He'd have to get an account, which currently isn't all that easy to get (I think). They turned anonymous posting off - most likely because of the one poster who wouldn't shut up.
And, honestly, they don't care about Knightus' character. Or Magic Bullet Girl's for that matter. They wouldn't have cared if he'd posted anything to tell whomever it is to be quiet.
I admit, I had not actually heard of FW before. It's seems to be an unsurpassed place for reviewing drama between online personalities and that's a feat unto itself. Or maybe it just shows how low the internet can go; either way, bravo. I hated to demonstrate a much-needed exercise in errata and break up a bit of the fun, but with incredible insults like "Dickus"--I can only applaud them for their class and ingenuity... or complete lack there of.
You know, such "reviewing" reminds me of a quote by Joyce Carol Oates, which I think sums of the "FW" army fairly well:
"Reviewing is an activity in which those who doubt their own worth express doubt of others worth, in which the morally reprehensible can pass judgment on the presumed morals of others."
Whether she had the foresight to see the founding of "FW", I guess we'll never know. I only hope that I'm worthy of being featured as ETA4 with this post. If they could make me ETA5 as well, that would be fantastic.
On a side-note unrelated to the immaturity of "FW" (yeah, I said it; you're all welcome--every one of you ^^): I actually didn't know that the Kid info site was yours, Icka. I'd been there multiple times and thought your name was familiar, but only realized the connection when I saw a link to it today when I signed up for the "Wiki" project forums. I can only hope you would incorporate all of that information into this potential DC/MK Wiki when it goes live.
Long live "FW"! I look forward to being featured on a long-awaited ETA.

Just have to ask but how does one involved in fandom NOT know of Fandom_Wank?
I'm not as involved in this side of the fandom as you may think, I guess. I don't read fan-fiction and have never delved in it, but I understand why some do. I do dabble in writing every now and again for kicks, but only with my own strange premises. I'm not prepared to tackle Gosho's lore, I guess.
And I love how you just don't seem to understand the whole point of it.
I do understand the point of it; it's fairly obvious what the point is. If the intended humor (not even creative in the least) were well, just that (humor), then it would have some point. As it stands, it's just people commenting on extremely biased situations with very crass humor.
They don't care if their insults are creative, genius. That's pretty obvious from reading any of them, isn't it?
I would say there's no shame in being a "newb" to LJ, though :P. What's with trying to prove that? You saw why I came here originally back a few weeks ago; it shouldn't be any surprise I haven't logged a few entires. And really, I never plan to log any, so I don't think anyone should bother being concerned with my lack of activity here.
That just seemed a little pointless, I guess, is what I mean to say. Just my opinion, though.

True. The reason why you came to LJ in the first place doesn't even have to be guessed upon. You came here to troll, and I am horribly upset that you chose to take up this ridiculous wankfest in Icka's LJ.
Thank you for confessing to your true intentions. I will now be reporting you. Have a nice day.
Doesn't take much to get you worked up if it was only because I expanded upon a topic that was already being discussed by a number of others.
The reason I came a few weeks ago is because I was pointed here by Truth following the madness. The reason I commented on the affair is because, obviously, I was allowed to and had been drawn into it by that point.
I was simply sharing my opinion--just like you.
By the way, do you honestly think I'm going to be heartbroken over being removed from LiveJournal? >.>
I am not the only one who is going as far as to Report you to LiveJournal in hopes to get you removed. Do ask around, I'm sure you'll see the truth yourself.
Also, a message from a friend of mine: "You won't be heartbroken, and neither will we."
A message from a friend of mine: "Fangirls will be fangirls, after all."
Actually, that's from me. It's been obvious from the get-go that you all coordinate with each other constantly and have very little (if anything) to say for yourselves, and hey... That's OK. I come on my own accord and don't need to coordinate with others :P.
Shew... What am I going to do with all of my icons? To ImageShack they go...
And it has nothing to do with the fact that you and Knightus are now working together in the scanlating department. No not at all.
And think of this as you will but, to use the words of a friend of mine, "we've collectively had enough of this bullshit and are working together to ensure that he is removed from our picture as soon as possible so we don't have to deal with his ignorant crap anymore."
And this will be the last comment from me. Apologies to Icka if this isn't what she wanted to happen in her LJ.
It being your last, will make it my last. Naturally, I came here today because my friends at FW made a great mention of it here. I'm actually starting to see some usefulness in making fun of online dramas after this encounter... Hmm...
I gotta say, hearing fangirls say they have collectively done anything doesn't surprise me in the least.
And, of course, ask Magic about that business. I offered to help see to a manga-like entity in the same vain as "DCTP" and she respectfully declined. I can respect that. She's going to keep doing the manga her way and I wish her all the best luck in that. I have no personal problem with her. What I can't respect, though, is the collective emotional outburst of several fangirls rolled into one.
Just curious, but why, exactly, are you quoting friends now? I would imagine you could come up with some of your own material, but I guess that just wasn't an option anymore.
I fully expect another to come take your place, but you're welcome to prove me wrong. After all, I am guilty of the grave crime of possessing another viewpoint.
Perhaps the wankers (er, is that a term?) wouldn't, but DC fans who are re-directed there would. There is already a post to the effect of not using Knightus's subs any more.
Heck, I usually don't follow F_W and don't have an account there myself, but the idea of wank in Detective Conan fanon drew me there. I mean, who would have thought?
Fandom_wank is still not the place where you're going to make yourself look good by coming in to defend yourself, no matter how in the right you feel you are.
Unless you're *really* good at expressing yourself (and five paragraphs of refutation isn't being good at expressing yourself) you're just going to wind up looking even more foolish than you did before. Knightus and MagicBulletGirl were both right to not post themselves.
~shrugs~ I wasn't suggesting Knightus defend himself. The anon already did that pretty well. I was suggesting that if he wanted it all to blow over, he could suggest that to the anon.
However, it's all starting to die down now, so I suppose the point is moot anyway.
Mmmm. It does appear to be dying, yet another reason why posting any defense of yourself or others - no matter how well meant - on FandomWank is generally not worth the time.
