145. I have to dissagree with you there. Sure, some few of their victims deserve it, but mostly, I find Wankas to be just as wanky as those they "wank." It's a pit of hypocricy and I've long thought the entire premise of the site to be somewhat evil -- if you constantly need to tear down others to build yourself up, that's what I define as "being an asshole."

In fact, if I had the money and the boredom, I would buy JournalFen just to get rid of Fandom Wank.

And, yes, I've been wanked there - a long time ago. I admit to having been a twatwaffle, but I believe the situation wouldn't have gotten nearly as big and as wanky if FW had not gotten involved, with all of the parties involved.

Not the OP, but I do and don't agree: IMO, FW being there as a shout for what idiots people are being is a good thing, and so is anything that might encourage people (if only a little) to think before they shoot their mouths off. I'm not saying I actually think there's anyone out there who's going to go, "Better not say that, I'll end up on FW," but rather that it might filter into someone's brain that using phrases like "Nazi Hitlers" (so much worse than regular Hitlers, don'tchaknow) to describe mods, or likening an edit to being raped, will do more to damage their viewpoint than help. *shrugs* A sort of, 'how not to argue if you actually want to convince the other person 101', if you will.

mostly, I find Wankas to be just as wanky as those they "wank."
People are morons, and that doesn't stop just because they've noticed other people being morons.

Which is why they have the wankitywank comm, so they can wank themselves.

Yeah? But how many of them really wank people who are "in the club?" Even when FW's popular members get on wankitywank, they tend to be quickly forgiven by com and they're *still* not seen as bad as the regular designated wankers. Okay, so there have been a few Wanka who created so much trouble on the com that they've gone from official Wanka status to ew-stinky wanker status, but there's still a feeling of "the club."

I know I have friends who go to Fandom Wank who will by absolutely no means stand up for any of their friends who get wanked, nor stand up for what they think is *right* even, in some cases.

I seem them as... the Jerry Springer Show of Interent fandom. They make fun of the nutty people, and people participate because they like to point and laugh and say "at least I'm not that guy." It's really just a part of human nature to find people to designate ourselves as "superior" to, and if FW didn't do it, something else would... and most of the time, and for *most* one-time "wankers," it's probably pretty harmless, still, it's a part of human nature I absolutely hate and think we, as a species should try to put away. It's not gonna happen, but not everybody thinks that things like the Jerry Springer Show are particularly *good* for society, either.

I still stand that I would buy Journalfen and dismantle if it I could... if nothing else than a personal whim.
