wiseheartTerrific. Some f***ing moron has just torn "Auguries of Immortality" to pieces on FF.Net, because they think they found some canon mistakes. I'm so sick and tired of this. Why do these idiots always target me? I research myself into an early grave, and yes, there might still remain certain mistakes, I'm not a machine, after all, but having all the efforts ignored and just the mistakes pointed out f*cking *hurts*!
It's a story that has had some positive reviews so far, and now I might have to remove the whole thing and lose the good reviews if I don't want to appear as an ignorant fool, because this self-righteous idot just *had* to leave a signed review.
I mean, I don't mind if people correct my mistakes. But having them listed on the review board in painstaking detail is something that will remain there, even after I've corrected them, telling everyone what an idiot I am. I hate these people, I really do. Would it kill them to PM me the list, since they're signed in anyway?
Edit: In case you're interested, my answer to the f***tard via PM is behind the tag.
Honestly? Yes, people who only read a story to find mistakes and only review to make the author look stupid, do annoy the living highlight out of me. Especially if they do it on the review board, where the mistakes remain documented, even after they have been corrected. I find it simply self-righteous and not the least helpful.
I've done a great deal of research for this story; I always do. Despite that fact, mistakes always remain, since I'm not a machine. Now, had you PM-ed me about them, so that I could correct them would have been helpful, and I'd have thanked you for it. As this wasn't the case, and you probably just wanted to feel superior against someone who might not spend all day with geeky stuff, it's just annoying. I'd thank you if you could stay away from my review board for the future.
Fanfic is supposed to be fun, not a way to ridicule people. I might have to remove the whole story and loose all my positive reviews because of you, in order not to look like an ignorant fool. Thank you so much. Just leave me alone in the future, please.
