A new group to be on the lookout for...

[jessioriginal.livejournal.com]

It's been suggested that part of the reason behind the purge were the mass-reports coming from a trollish community on FanFiction that felt they have the right to judge which stories do and do not belong on the site.  Unfortunately, they are not alone.  My Fatal Fanfiction story-a Fatal Frame parody revolving around the recent purge-was targeted by them.  Apparently the short prologue with references to the characters, story, and setting of the game was enough for them to declare my story an original work.  They have since demanded I change it or remove it, threatened me, they've reported my story, and they keep leaving those kind of reviews.  They have a very self-important view of themselves, and rest-assured they will cause the deletion of a lot of stories who don't deserve it.  And the one who reported my story to them?  An author with a grudge.  I wrote another story in the same fandom.  It's called "Mayu's Promise".  Apparently, he loves her so much that it's character-bashing, even though I explained to him she spent the entire game going through a lot and possessed and pointed out the signs of her own twisted obsession.-.-

This group is called Critics United:

UPDATE:

They succeeded in getting my story taking down and my account infractioned.  THEN the leader apologized and acknowledged their mistake, said she would talk to ONE of the people, and then banned me and deleted my message and those of people who supported me.  I'm trying to challenge the deletion, but I'm not hopeful.  I told her they should contact the site and tell them their mistake.  This is ridiculous.  As others have said, they really have a superiority-complex.


Further update:

In nothing short of a miracle, my story has been restored:

The FN key is only on laptops.

However, how I was taught to take a picture of the screen with Crt+Prt Sc Sys Rq.
Also there is something called a snipping tool on Windows that allows you to take a picture of only the area that you want.

Yea FN is only on Laptops, so people with desktops just gotta press the Ctrl and PrtSc.

What's this snip tool? Is it like taking a pic on a Mac?

[kagenoneko-maat.livejournal.com]

Kind of. I find the name snipping tool is vary vague and not all that good. But I would say it is like Snag It, but I don't know about taking a pic on a Mac. However, I have seen someone do something on the mac that was similar to what the snipping tool is doing.

I could talk on and on about the snipping tool and how it improved since I seen it in Vista.
