-This is the last forum I'm hitting regarding this because I feel you guys can understand the frustration here, lol-

Letter of love to the FFN Administration

Dear FFN Administration, I love you guys. No, seriously, I love you. I think you're the bestest administration people I have ever had the pleasure of dealing with. I love the fact you made the abuse review feature. I mean - wow - ingenuity at its finest. You see a troll review, spam review, or flame, and magically, you can report it! I can't stress how giddy I feel when I hit that little text-button-of-fun, and get to chose what kind of abuse the naughty review should be labeled!

But, do you know what gets me giggling every time? Every time I click the "send report"?

No response! Nothing! Not a gosh darn thing!

I can't tell you how much satisfaction that brings me, knowing that no matter how many reports I send regarding the signed spam on every chapter on every storyI had uploaded, that spam will still be there the next day, and the next day, and the next day!

Warm fuzzies all over! I think I'm grinning ear to ear!

And who's the clever one who designed that review throttle for only 15 seconds? LOL, someone had their smartie cap on didn't they? Golly, I could just hug you to pieces! Because of you, someone finally showed how much love they had for me by spamming one story over 2800 times! YES, 2800 times!!! I'm blushing!

I was so overwhelmed with their shameless display of affection that I simply had to disable anon reviews. I can handle only so much love you know! However, I afraid my fans might get jealous of those tidbits of joy on my review board - all 189 pages worth - so I must delete them all and send another supportive email that will never be read! I have tingles now from all this love and joy and extra work I have to put into erasing these tokens of desire that I have to stop at forty deletions or else I'll go cross-eyed!

But don't worry now, I'll restore my review count to normal, someday.

So WORD to you, FFN administration, for making lovely useless features and keeping your site a frolicking Troll Playground!

XXOOXXO,

M

The Writer's Anonymous forum has a PETITION for the deletion of signed reviews. I personally don't like the idea of authors deleting concrit, but spam and trolling under pennames should be deterred. The measly 15 second throttle is useless, and enables spammers to well, spam more.

Anyone who is tired of FFN ignoring reports and implementing features and then abandoning them, please sign that petition. Thanks for your time :)

Pray tell where I might find this petition!

I linked it above on the word Petition. All you have to do is say "me too". That means you've signed it. I was getting worried about the signatures (we only had around 20) so I posted in Fanficrants about this, and then in other forums. I know 70 or a 100 sigs are a drop in the bucket, but at least is shows people are fed up.

Lol Maia, this thing is everywhere! And there is no better home for this rant than the Official Rant Board...

I know, why didn't I think of this sooner?

The LFE isn't all that interested, but since it's high up in the general forums, I thought maybe someone might be persuaded to sign the petition. Even if it's just a few more, it's something.

That email ranks in as epic. What's sad is that they may actually take that as a sign that things are fine, I'm doubting anyone there can read sarcasm.

BTW, I must say that the scumbag who triggered it needs to be shot.

I hate trolls with a passion, so everytime I see one I'll send them a flame for the following reasons:

1) They beg for reviews.

2) They don't leave a disclaimer.

3) They write in a way that butchers the English language (I don't know about others but still).

As for abuse reports, nothing happens. The 'badfics' stay there no matter what. It's utterly annoying and I will continue with my next move to get them off this site.

If push comes to shove, we might as well delete all the 'good fics' and find someplace else to post them, because not a lot of features are good here.
