We got nothing on them
Jun. 22nd, 2006 11:32 amNow the Jossverse fandom has had its fair share of angst, drama and internecine warfare.
A few examples:
The Kittens
Shipping wars - too numerous and yawn inducing to mention
The Save Wash campaign (a po-faced effort to get Universal to force Joss to edit and reshoot Serenity).
Cordy angst
Spike is evil/wonderful
The secret reason why some people don't like Sarah Michelle Gellar (but I'll perhaps address that in a later post)
Marti Noxon hate
Anyhow some people may be aware of trouble in the Harry Potter fandom. When I say trouble I mean epic and damaging. My fandom has nothing on this one.
So without further ado, I gave you the MsScribe story which came via Fandom Wank. 90000 words on how one fan manipulated a fandom. It is highly recommended reading.
