    Sweet God, I'm almost afraid to write the next chapters of my fics, if you guys were to get ahold of them...

    Very nice Tinn, Sree...

    Oh yeah...Anime-eater finally replied to the epic insult to his "story" He pm'ed me the following stellar rebuttal:

    HE HE! I love people like you. Your ignorant and bull-headed and if you
    have a problem I've got two words for you... SUCK IT!!

    Suggestions for insults?

    I don't remember exactly, since I was just running through other's favorite authors, but it was a Naruto fic where he ends up in an alternate universe. Overused, but it was top-notch.

    Edit: Door Number Two reviews
    Maybe it’s a dream, maybe it’s real. Naruto doesn’t know how he got there, but he’s not sure he wants to go home. One choice can change a life forever, and Naruto's about to find out what it's like to have a family.
    Naruto - Fiction Rated: T - English - Drama/Action/Adventure - Chapters: 17 - Words: 61,067 - Reviews: 598 - Updated: 2-24-07 - Published: 12-30-06

    Here ya go.

    I do believe that our favourite review goddess has once again made it clear why she holds such a title. Way to tear an author apart, Tinn! Now, If only you'd do my French mock Speaking exam for me...

    Crazy1 - hoping desperately that Tinn doesn't read crossovers (I don't want to be subjected to such brutal analysis of my grammar).

    Nah, that one wasn't so good. It wasn't what I've come to expect of Tin Tam. There was too much small word usage, not enough variety in insults. Here's what I read: You're stupid. You're really stupid. Your english is stupid. Your grammar is stupid. Blah blah stupid blah blah.

    Where were the character attacks? The insulting to the author's pride? There were so many things that I thought I would see and I just got the same thing over and over in this one. Very dissapointing.

    I think she didn't have to resort to insulting the girls character because she had enough quotes in that one chapter to process and use as revenge for the torture she recieved reading it. Insults based off of proof found within her writing beats insulting her character any day, for all insults to her personality or her as a person would be guesswork.

    It was nicely done, if a little harsh.

    her profile says she's thirteen, and the first chapter was written two years ago. So your insulting the work of an eleven year old...

    You know, that WOULD be true IF it were what she actually did. What she REALLY did was take these lines she thought were stupid (which, admittedly, they were) and harp on the SAME PROBLEMS that the author continues to make--yes, it's pointing out the author's problems with reiteration, but, ironically, Tin Tam's being INCREDIBLY REDUNDANT herself. Ok, we get it, the author sucks at redundancy. Find something else to make fun of, or get off it! You've made the point, move on.

    And that is exactly why eleven year old girls should NEVER write fanfiction. It causes pain to any server it is stored on.

    Anyone that's stupid enough to think that they have writing skills at that age deserves to be flamed as much as is humanly possible.

    EDIT: Why must I try to type at 5.30am? It's far too early for using my brain *goes back to sleep*.

    Flaming a flame. How nice.

    Seriously... I know this one isn't as good as the first two; I got bored after a while and botched up the end. As for 'variety in insults', where do I call Brazilianpimp something else than stupid and immature? I don't recall being that inventive...

    You're being a bit of a hypocrit when saying I only focus on her overuse of redundancies. I mentioned that problem in a grand total of two paragraphs. Do I need to list all the different points I evoked in this flame?

    - Awful style, although she was obviously convinced she was very good at writing; among the many problems in her style, redundancies being the more obvious, they were the one I mentioned. Clumsy association of words as well ("searching even more desperately").

    - Complete lack of elementary logic; actually that's the point I stressed, more than the reiteration one. I wonder how you could have missed that.

    - Butchering characters. Was that criticising her taste for redundancies as well?

    - Failed attempt at humour.

    - Probable introduction of a Gary Sue named Ice, of all things.

    Did you miss all that, or did you interprete everything as me criticising her liking for reiteration? If that's the case you're reading too much into my flame.

    I'm not going to bother quoting all the names I called her, because that would mean copying and pasting the whole flame. The flame is shorter than usual but the 'variety in insults' is still the same as in my previous flames. I called her stupid, yes; I declined the 'stupid' theme in a lot of ways actually, just as I did for Brazilianpimp. So in short, yes the flame isn't very good; but no, the tactic is not any different from my usual one. There is nothing to be disappointed about.

    And last: please spell my name correctly. There are four letters in 'Tinn', it's not that hard.

    Wow. wow.

    Tinnnnnnnn, you'll notice in my first one that I said that I wasn't particularly impressed by the flame. And I wasn't. I stand by that. Then, the idiot decided to take my comment more seriously than I thought it should have been. Really, I do.

    But, see, here's the thing I really thought you should have worked on a bit more--the sarcasm. After every line, the same generic sarcasm. Come on, you're better than that.

    Lol. Yeah, I know the flame could've been better, but I did say I had grown bored after a while... I had no problem with your first post by the way, it's the second one that ticked me off.

    Will do better next time :p.

    Rofl, Sov. That gave me a laugh. Anyways, give Tinn a break on the bashing of the author of the story, she left that up to me. I gave her the actual story, and I got the little shitstain to flame.

    My flame for Returning of the Parents:

    Eh..now i'm going to take offense?

    Seriously, you need to work on the fact that you please one person by dissing the other, its not going to get you anywhere.

    My post was hardly serious, and was only standing up for her on the basis that what you thought a good flame is, is exactly what a good flame isn't. You flame someone on the story. Grammar, spelling, writing, dialogue, etc. You don't try to flame her character, for anyone with an ounce of self confidence will see that the flamer is just trying to grab at loose straws.

    You give proof and what your trying to say, and don't just flame how you think there a retarded monkey who fell out of tress multiple times while they was little.

    I like the flame; short, simple, and effective. If she exapnded and ended with multiple insults that ruin her character, I would probably only remember that and forget about why the story deserved it to begin with.

    If Tinn Tam's flame doesn't make her put her story on hiatus for a little while, Sree's sure will.

    Tinn Tam does a good job at insulting her story, and Sree does a good job at insulting her character.

    Anyway, thanks Kai :D .
