    Well isn't that just downright fuckin rude! I think you have to learn your place! we all bitch about fics, think of it as constructive critsism. Sera when he decids to bitch usually does it for a reason and you tend to listen to what's said. *holds Sizzling Wok of Havoc up threatingly*

    Sizzling Wok of Havoc? lol, I have no idea what that is. I know it's Chinese kitchenware, but no clue towards what it's used for?

    Well I gave the story a shot, and I must say HARRY IS A LITTLE BITCH in this story. He apoligizes for EVERYTHING. It gets so irritating for him to beg ginny to forgive him for NOT ASKING HER TO THE BALL EARLY ENOUGH. It's riddiculus, not to mention him apologizing to everyone for hexing Malfoy. I'm sorry but Cannon Harry has a short temper, he isn't some noble monk who does everything that's pure and then apologizes for not being a perfect little bitch for ginny, dumbldore and the light side.

    Lol

    It's used for making stir fry and shit like that, at least in my house anyway. Although I'm yet to see one of Havoc, I'll have to get over to ebay and see if I can find one.

    Play nice guys, we have banned folks temp. for outright baiting the staff. He's got the right to post his opinion as long as it's reasonably fair, you all do.

    Suprised you didn't hit me with that, considering I'm usually one of the first to respond to threads with harshly honest reviews.

    Thank you Beelzebu. It was a joke but apparently not many got it. SO sorry for trying to crack a joke ppl, maybe next time I'll just say it right off and then there's no humor or anything.

    And no vash I wasn't messing or mouthing off to you or Midknight. Like I said I'm not that stupid.

    Jeez ya try to fool around a bit and ya get in trouble for it. :( :? :shock: :roll: Anyway sorry if I ruffled anyones feathers with my small joke, though Beel does have a good idea with that.

    :D

    Ye, sure, it's universal, but when you deal with your fellow Asgaards, nothing goes wrong, everything is perfect.

    The problem starts when I log in to the human Internet from my "boy-who-lived" (my starship). :wink:

    It didn't come off as a joke, more like really bad sarcasism, that left the door open for bad retaliation. You didn't offend me or mouth off to me, and I didn't take it that way, as I responded the way I did, if you had offended me, well there's a reason I'm usually the one to enforce our policies first, lol. My response was purely cut and dry, just a simple play nice folks, wasn't meant to be DO IT OR DIE!!1! I think Vash was a bit annoyed by it, as was Sera, but you apologized, so it's cool.

    Hmm seeing the smile at the end, I'll take that as sarcasism, otherwise that does come off rather pissy, since the above posts are mostly staff. :twisted: We've discussed it, a rant forum. I'm against it however, there should be a measure of respect, both for us staff, and for fellow users at all times. My reasoning being that, I'm utterly sick and tired of folks replying to posts just bashing other posters, and I can quickly see a rant/bitch forum gear into folks siding up against each other. There's been a great deal of flame/flame bait posts lately, I've removed quite a bit of them lately, some a mere minute after they were posted and sent gentle warnings asking for respect.

    Getting the point where regardless of if the holidays are shoving a bitch pill in their throats or not, this community isn't the place to wave around epeens, we're all here to share readable fics, and discuss various things about HP.

    Hey question..... I know of a Godlike HP fic but don't know how to post it. Yes I read the rules for posting but didn't understand most of it. I'd have to give the story's page address instead of the story address 'cause it's not on FFnet or mediaminer or any of those, it's on Schnoogle.

    So, uh, a little help clearing things up for me?

    The page address is fine, any link to it is fine as long as it's easily findable.

    As for the rest of the thread, take this lightheartedly, as I intended

    Err... forgive me for discussing the topic of this thread, but Sib's The Awakening Power is an excellent H/G (yes there are a few), with a great Harry/Dumbledore duel (man there's not enough of those), and even an impressive battle and action adventure sequence at the end. Any storyline that leaves Harry still in school and Voldemort still alive after 200k+ words of a 6th year story, is practically unfinished and in need of a sequel though.

    But here's my question: How the hell did this land under "Dark Harry but Lightsided"? I mean this story is about as canon!friendly Dumbledore/Order respecting as they come. Harry's not throwing around unforgivables or much in the way of dark magic, and certainly not actively doing something Dumbledore tells him not to. Certainly one of the better follow-ups to OotP and a fair more romance than I'd like to see, but I would never have called this story dark in any way, shape, or form.

    I know the whole "dark but light-sided" verbiage has been debated some, but I always interpreted it as someone wanted to write a "dark" story with dark magic etc... but was desperately hoping to not get clumped with "evil!Harry" stories and added "but light-sided" to make it clear they were still against Voldie. Sometimes "but light-sided" means working with the order and Dumbles as equals, though most of the time it seems to fall as though they are working against Dumbles. But I don't think any story where Harry would be considered "Dumbledore's man" and where he's still a little bitch needing guidance and orders should fall under the "dark but light-sided" banner.

    Though I will reiterate, that if you can ever stomach H/G at all, this is definitely one of the betters. Way more romance and tears than I like normally, but I can still recommend this fic without a second thought.
