GRRRRRRRRRRRRRR

[edit: this will give a more complete picture of what transpired.]

Okay, so, Arith (arithion) has been writing "Smile", a ZukaFuji PoT fic. Multi-part. It's on part 20 now.

The fic inspired her friend Leth (sansillion), who wrote a song for the story. The lyrics are all about the emotions in the story. You can find the lyrics here.

Leth wrote the music, wrote the lyrics, sang the song, recorded it and posted it to tenipuri_yaoi. You can imagine how much work Leth had put into this. And any fic writer can imagnie how much this means to Arith. It's like getting fanart for your fanfics. But a song! A SONG!!!!

And the mod axed the thread. [EDIT: correction, the mod said the thread might need to be deleted, so Leth took it down]

The mod's reasons are here.

THIS IS SO FUCKED UP.

My apologies. From now on I won't be posting anything to tenipuri_yaoi anymore. I will still post to potfics and tezukafuji, and of course to word_games (which you should all add to your flists!).

I'm not trying to divide people up, but I want to bring this to people's attention. Do link this post to your LJ if you want.

*moving to the proper spot* i said this before, but jeeze, that's dumb. it's the same thing that happened last time, but far more relevant. i think maybe the mod should grow up considering ~.~;

Hm, this is what I meant when I said that that community seemed somewhat hostile! Perhaps it was the 'OMG Absolutely do not DARE post if you aren't a member!!!11' on the info page. :) If I ever get any more episodes of TnO and really get into it, I'll be joining pairing-specific comms...

'Fucked up' indeed.

*sigh* I think Farohji sums it up so much better than I can.

Ack >_< Sorry...I didn't even see the post before it was deleted, or would've tried to stop that from happening. ._. I can see where she was coming from, but a fanwork is a fanwork after all and that post should have stayed. It's not like it was for a het GW fic or something like that O_o

I'm glad to see I'm not the only member to ever leave tenipuri_yaoi due to the Nazi esque, bad attitude, insult the members, pile of shit they call "mod'ing."

They really need to learn the definition of "community".

And there should be a normal Tenipuri comm. I always found it, well, not "strange" considering the series/fandom, but odd that there wasn't a general comm for the series. Hmm... I can make one, if you weren't already going to. ^^

[yuki-scorpio.livejournal.com]

We really need a general comm! ^^ morning_songs is talking about it right here too...

Maybe we should all get together and... get something together ^^
