Lololol, they all are freaking retarded! Lol! This is totally TL;Dr!

(Okay, now that they've all hit BACK. If you happen to go here or know people, feel free to continue.)
So, I happen to be a user on Fanfiction.net, if anyone has ever heard of it a place where good and often BAD BAD things can happen. About 60% of the population is female, and about 30% of that population is NOT obsessed with Twilight or some other gross anime/novel/movie fandom. Most of these women like to sop up their hopeless love lives by writing stories that "are not about themselves in the clothing of a canon character universe" or "by writing homosexual stories about their favorite male characters breaking continuity and falling in love with each other, even if they are trying to kill each other in their fictional universe.
I detest things like this, these putrid AUs and these wretched OCs (Twilight), mind you. I try my hardest not to be a "douche bag" Fanfiction writer(Twilight), I don't bend the truth or the facts just to make myself feel like (Twilight) a better writer - But at the same time, as I mentioned, 70% (Twilight) of them are all female, and they will fight to protect what they believe in or love (Twilight). hOWEVER, I will concede that as a fan fiction writer, I am required to bend things in certain ways, and I am in many ways a goofball. I know, a lot of my ideas are just plain stupid to...a person like you, but its the fan fiction author way. There's no getting around it - So if you're not a very accepting or receptive-aggressive person, I suggest you hit BACK now and realize you wasted a minute reading all of this.
However, as a young teenager, I was frequently prone to "raging" against what I deemed to be "bullshit", generally assumed by the number of people revieiwng a story when the story itself has two paragraphs max (an exaggeration, but you get the idea). I've gathered a loyal following of fan fiction-writing females ad crews who hate my guts because I've flamed (and just for emphasis, I like to be sarcastic, half-serious, witty, or at least 'funny' when I flame people here, I don't just go "Fuck you" and walk away, I like to put a bit of spice with my insults)
I'm a bit smarter than I was back then and I try not to openly offend people unless I know they aren't going to be logical or respond to reason, thus requiring a dramatic verbal thrashing to get them to listen to me instead of tune me out. However, the problem with the internet is that you can't automatically assume something about a person just because of things they say - You never know all the circumstances that lead up to a conversation with that person, whether it goes good or bad.
Now, on Fanfiction.net finally, I have multiple accounts used in case I need a backup or run out of documents. The one in question here is: ChaosEmerald. On this one, I wrote a story awhile ago called "Cod Of War II". But on the ChaosEmerald account, when I was younger, I played out what I imagine to be a lot of my "troll hunts" for the often more-than-not terribly written Assassin's Creed fics (the gist are women portraying Assassins, or Altair falling in love with some authoress-inspired character - its sap romance).
One of these happened to be one, The First Female Assassin, by Ms Opalaisha. As you've witnessed if you have an attention span, she is an advent of Twilight. Now, without going through hours of searching through debates I've participated in, its my general consensus that people who display a general obsession and hysteria with Twilight are high-stakes people, high blood pressure, high anxiety, and have a tendancy to overreact or take things a bit too seriously. This is estimated due to the interactions I've faced in my daily life with Twilight advocates. (Now, I disclaim fair Twilight readers, I have moderate respect for someone who enjoys a book, no matter the subject matter.).
Now, again, I happened to be a flamer-troll with a Level 55 Posting Wand. But there were times when I answered rather civilly, in my opinion. And this happened to be one of them...My review of one of Opalaisha's stories.
I don't think its that harsh, do you. I admit, maybe it was a bit half-serious because I was mellow at the time. But compared to others, its entirely soft. Its like I'm speaking to the rest of what I consider a "female OC-obsessive" crowd rarther than just her, I tried to relax her, she's a decent writer though I disapprove of her first person storytelling due to personal convictions about writing.
And on my Cod Of War story, I just recently came upon this. Her review of my non-hostile review.
Now the reason this is so important to me (to those of you wondering why I bothered posting this on the "oh so rich and enlightening General Board that is grossed with so many varying levels of intelligent discussion that you wonderful, respectful, and accepting Newgrounders wander and propagate like nursery children) is because in one of my past debates when I was more of a troll than an honest reviewer I overheard someone who in retrospect was far more respectable than I was about the issue of these "hopeless authoresses" and they compared Twilight fanatacism with general fan fiction fanatacism. This person, in addition to a number of others on the thread, agreed that while they learned to accept authoresses like that, they noted how authoresses such as these are very openly hostile to even the slightest amount of criticism.
And frankly, I couldn't have begged for a better example than this. I'm PMing her soon once I log into the right account, and I'll be using this as a past evidence for any debates I get into people on the level of atrocity and magnificence that permeates fan fiction and its writers.
Discuss.
Or, let this sink to the bottom of the page. I hope this was an amusing little story and theory for you all, however. It certainly was for me.
