I just looked up thanfiction on fanlore and the first paragraph alone was so much. Then I did a quick ctrl+f on the homicide mentioned and saw the way they updated their FFN profile in 2013.

I have known my fair share of dramatic people in my life, but thanfiction is an entire folio. holy fuck. the mind boggles.

I read the first paragraph and then dropped down to see whether the homicide was an actual literal murder and then I had to just backbutton out of the page entirely.

I saw that too, although I didn't read through the whole thing. I might save that for some day a year or two from now when it's all a distant memory lol. I'm glad someone did it, though. As a Fanlore peep myself, I knew *someone* should and I really didn't want it to be me lol

Fwiw, the person who wrote that new page sounds extremely fed up with the drama which makes for a really entertaining yet informative read 😂 (it looks like the page got more of a lift-up since then, but gems like these made me chuckle: "On Friday, July 29, 2022 at 20:08 UTC (1 day, 11 hours, and 27 minutes after the original post), Flamethrower made a post saying that it was now "Day Three" of the suspension (despite claiming that it was still Day One 20 hours prior).[36]

It's very factual!!)

yessss those timing details were there when I saw the page and I just read and ate virtual popcorn the whole time! it's factual but it's also shade. that wiki editor has some major talent
