(Anonymous) 2011-09-13 04:32 am (UTC)(link)It's never right when it happens but it seems bizarre that the outrage is so much more focused on her than it is for anyone else. Even with being published and the whole thing when her fans bought her a laptop and everything else. IDK I see plenty of posts on lj with people moaning about needing money and putting up a Paypal donation link. It's rude behavior imo but it still doesn't demonize her.
I don't belittle people who plagiarize from other fanfic authors. If anything that bothers me more than when they plagiarize against published people. The published person is still getting paid and might get some new fans when the truth comes out. It still sucks and is morally the wrong thing to do but their career isn't going to be ruined because some twit online stole their words. But for a fanfic writer, their online experience can be ruined because of just that. I agree with you, it makes it worse because all fanfic writers have are their words.
But afaik CC never plagiarized other fanfic writers. I might have missed something with all the wank that went down but I've never heard of her doing that. Ripping lines off Pamela Dean or Buffy or Red Dwarf yes, other fanfic writers, no.
The fat jokes are a major part of why I want the wank around her to just die the fuck off already. She's listed as an acceptable target by the worst dregs of fandom and as a result they won't hesitate to slam her for her weight or her looks and use spiteful misogynistic language in the process. But it's considered okay because it's CC.
It's not okay. It's never okay. But they'll keep doing it every single time the wank emerges again until we finally, finally let the thing rest.
I should clarify too, I don't defend CC because I think she's a good person or whatever. From what I've read of her she's done some really horrible things and hurt people who trusted her. She seems spiteful to me. I just get sick of the dogpiling especially when it brings this level of bashing.
