I miss LJ and the commando much! But I don’t miss the sporkings or MSTing. Too much of that was way past the line and it was often just an excuse to bully someone.

UGH obviously I meant comms. My stupid phone :(

This. The fics that did actually deserve a trashing could be counted on one hand. But the vast majority that got sporked were just making fun of a preteens' first fic. These may not have been good writing, but they were entirely benign.

That was what I saw, too. I also saw some really well written stuff get ripped to shreds because one BNF would have a beef with another BNF and just go to town. Sometimes even submitting stuff to ripped and claiming it came from a sock puppet of rival BNF when in reality it wasn’t.

I still love the idea of sporking but in small, private groups and without targeting someone because you don’t like them.

Yes. Even when they weren't teens. I had a friend who got sporked a lot and when she finally deleted all her fics, she got made fun of for that. It was right out of the middle school playbook.

Agreed. And the sporkers always hated the kinds of fics they read. So, don't read those fic.

Those sporkings of fics that were mainly bad because they were a niche kink the sporkers supposedly didn't like... Well, they always came off a little protest-too-much.

I'm part of a spork comm that migrated over from LJ to DW, and while admittedly I can only speak for the state of affairs there, the landscape has significantly shifted. We tend to go more after mainstream media, and even when we do go after fanfics, our sporks have been more analytical in nature than detrimental, looking at why the decisions writers make are bad and offering ways that they could still get what they're going for without warping characters OOC or adding melodrama for the sake of it. We seek to rebuild rather than tear up, so to speak.

But again, I can only speak for das_sporking2 in particular. Not sure what the state of affairs on other MST-oriented comms would be.
