I don't know if I can take following sherlockbbc any more, which is kind of a shame because there are occasional interesting posts on it. Where occasional = maybe five a week and posts = anywhere from 38 to 91 a day...

Jesus fucking Christ, I know, man.

I'm going to ask Sara to had the posts moderated for a while - there has to be something done to fix this shit.

Talking about wearing pink =/= anything to do with Sherlock, frankly.

I dunno - I think that need should probably be filled somewhere; maybe I'm just in the wrong comm?

[icedmaple.livejournal.com]

It's ridiculous. And the more random posts are allowed to go un-deleted/reprimanded, the more people will do it.

There have been so many in the last couple of days which were genuinely utter bollocks.

Call in the ban cavalry!

I AGREE OMFG. I joined the comm but took them off my reading cycle because if not I had 6+ pages of nothing but Sherlock. WHILE I LOVES IT, er, holy shit.

I wouldn't mind if it was actual discussion and fic and such, though. It's all the spamming of BC&MF other projects, mentions of people wearing pink, talk about A-level results. I DO NOT CARE AND I AM A CURMUDGEON.

Ugh, I know. Between that and the wank that went down on the kink meme recently, I am very fucking rapidly losing patience with this fandom! Which is a shame, because some of the fics are bloody wonderful.

[villainny.livejournal.com]

Ooh explain the second thing? I haven't even heard about that.

Hee wank, though. Surely that is expected, if you're doing the kink right? XD

[linzibean.livejournal.com]

Ha, if only it was just the good kind of wank being inspired by the meme ;)

There was basically a massive, and fairly aggressive, argument about attitudes to rape in the meme, because some person thought it was ok to treat rape as THE MOST LOLWORTHY THING EVAH and that rape/sexual assault victims should, like, get over themselves. Cue much bitching over the rights of people to read rape fantasies vs. the rights of people not to be triggered by insanely stupidly worded prompts, and how we can't have discussions on memes because it will KILL THE FANDOM. There was a lot entitlement issue crap going on, and a lot of very childish, and downright offensive attitudes. It really put me off. The idea that someone value getting their rocks off to fanfic over somebody's mental well being staggers me. Don't get me wrong, I don't want to see non-con banned or whitewashed out of fandom, I'd just like it to be treated sensitively or at least warned for!

Oooh, bit of a rant there, sorry!

[villainny.livejournal.com]

Totally worth ranting over!

I've just complained on the mod post about the one she put up about OMG PICKING UP HER A LEVELS. Seriously, WTFF? I understand they're still working out a policy, but a little bahleeting wouldn't go amiss right now.

IA, the signal-to-noise ratio is getting ridiculous. Maybe I will unwatch it (though stay a member) as I do with doctorwho in case of interesting goodies under lock, and watch the Holmesian all-canons newsletter (http://community.livejournal.com/holmesian_news/profile) and my own flist for Sherlocky goodness.

See all I get to read is via you, thisissirius and <lj user="lsvvyan", because I can't bring myself to wade through it
