Mhm. Consider it reported and scathed.

Ah, I see. One of those. Ouch, fangirl pride day today or something?
A review whore, a basher, a pre-teen, a superiority complex and formatting issues, an attitude ("I am always right!"), who writes astonishingly derivative works, and one with the verbal skills of "poohead", all rolled into one.
What did we do to deserve this one?

Seriously, much as I might like to say things about the quality of the majority of the works on FF.net and the inaction of the admins, it's best not to insult them. I mean, they host the site from their money, they devote a fair bit of time to it, and take pains to put a front-end on it. And what do they get in return, kiddies like this. "Pooheads"? (sighs).

Badness. Overload. Grades six and seven are what, 11 and 12 around here and most places I've seen. So somebody's probably falling under the age cutoff. For good reason.
God, I shouldn't even have used my boot on that one. I mean, the soles are only so impermeable... I'd probably pick up the fangirl infection or something.

(shakes right leg) Uh... I think it's g0ing nubm.. oh kr4p... Dose N E 1 kno F theres a cure? its creping up my leg...
