And another big flaming WTF-award goes to Jonathan!


First of all... dude, learn how to spell. Use a spell check, at the very least. If I had a dollar for every spelling error in this post... well, at least it would recoup some of the money I wasted on Narcissus in Chains.

It became a hotbed of negitivity and name calling. If this was in the official forums, the offending parties would have been banned, the post moderated and everything kept nice and civil.

Nice to know they fully endorse freedom of speech and everything.

You know, they should be grateful that people are griping in plain sight. Then, if they bothered to care, they could see what fans (and yes, many of us are still fans, in our own ways) truly thought. Now they'll just drive all the snark underground, where it will fester and grow and get even stronger because of it. Remember in Star Wars, when Princess Leia said "The more you tighten your grip, Tarkin, the more star systems will slip through your fingers" [pp]? Yeah. It's gonna be like that. And do you remember who WON at the end? That's right. The Rebel Alliance. Not the evil Empire. Let's hope for a similar result here.*

* = NB: I love Darth Vader. I am in no way trying to say that LKH and her people are half as cool, organized, or efficient as the Empire.

Hmmm, if I understand it right, he complained about their/his own forum. So I don't know what he thinks is an official forum[s], since both are free accessible AND it's the board of the author...(is there anything more official?)
If they exclude everyone,who snarks, rants or criticizes, they'll withdraw themselves into LKH's famous ivory tower. The books will become worse than they are now, thanks to all the "Laurell, don't listen to them, because I understood what you said" people. But if they can't stand a normal critic, it says more over them as they probably think.
*Sorry, I worked too much during the last weeks and I'm little bit confused*
