Right, I mean, stalking only happens to people you LIKE after all. If it’s anyone else, it’s justified! Also, she asked for it.

Nope more lies from you. Is that the only thing you are able to do, lie about everything?

Of course Brett, it’s all a massive conspiracy theory to tell lies, because everyone telling you lies is simpler than the fact that you simply disbelieve anything which does not meet your ideological tests. Congratulations on the victim blaming, though.

Again lies, for there to be victim blaming there has to be an actual victim to blame. As nothing you have stated here has actually happened to you, you aren’t a victim in any way. You are just a liar, and not even a very good one at that.

Oh of course, reality bends to your might will! Revisionism you chant, revisionism. So, when will you bottle and sell it? You’d be a billionaire overnight! Or at least a star of the self-help circuit.

Well? Those pesky facts ain’t be changing, Brett. You’re not trying hard enough! Blame the victim harder, she’s a slut!

You are the one with reality issues, you couldnt even own up to changing what someone else in this thread posted to you in a reply.

Dawn, I hope someone stalks you, finds you, and kills you. Slowly. Preferably with dull surgical instruments. And films it and puts it on the internet. So I can laugh. Because you dying in agony would be funny. Like, wheezing-for-breath, come-here-guys-you-have-to-see-this, oh-my-sides funny.

Your death.

Funny.

Bill, I suspect you just got forwarded to the - dun dun DUN! - relevant people.

You made a freudian slip, own up to it like a man. It was funny, anyway. But no, No Humour Allowed.

Bill Dungsmearman - Well, yes, that’s a given for you. What that says about you, well, hey - your choice after all.

Considering what I actually posted is in my first response and you are the one who changed it, I have nothing to ‘own up’ to. You are the one who cant even tell the truth about something as simple as that. And then you expect anyone to believe anything else that you post? Amazing.

It says I want you to die. Sorry if there was some confusion.

Different authors, although both work in the same military sci-fi sub-genre and often for the same publishers. Kildar series is John Ringo.

Who also enjoys writing rape porn. No, really.

I do, however, have a finely-tuned defense mechanism: whenever something trips my circuit breaker, causing me to cringe away from the page, I utter aloud a cry that resets my noggin. You will probably need it yourself, so I provide it here, as a public service: “OH JOHN RINGO NO.”

Like many other things, I blame Angie Gallant for introducing me to OH JOHN RINGO NO.

Yes, yes, fine. Now, for everyone else, there are some indicators as a result of this to consider…

Brettmcd - As I said, it’s all a conspiracy, right. Believe!

Also, good luck with the MPD treatments. (Did anyone else even NOTICE? Massive persecution complex there)

Fuckface, someone is going to get bored/malicious, collect a “best of Dawn Falcon” and send it to your administrators, with the subtext that you’re tarring the reputation of their institution on a moderately important industry social hub by its association with your retardation. Fuck off already before you destroy your livelihood.

I apologize; it’s actually “Into the Dark”.

Also, I care about as much that John Ringo wrote rape porn as I care about Lolita, which is a million times better written but still a book about a man who has sex with his 12-year-old stepdaughter.

Also, since this thread has been derailed enough, I just want to post this chunk from the “Oh John Ringo No” blog post:

Holy crap, talk about speaking truth to power: the least sympathetic of the recurring characters in the series is laying out exactly what she thinks of the hero. And she hates him. And she’s right to. It’s an aspect of the book that makes for a really interesting dynamic. If you’ve been rooting for Mike to kill that terrorist, fuck that girl, become that warlord, it’ll sucker-punch you. Ringo has set up his audience to identify with Mike, and cheer him on, and now he uses Katya to pull the rug out from under them. It’s an especially interesting choice because Ringo acknowledges Mike to be a creation of his darkest id; Katya’s challenging of Mike is pretty much an acknowledgment that shit is fucked up in here.

Yeah, Ringo responded to that blog post with a goodnatured “Yep, he’s right! I agree!”.

Those books are still pretty hideously bad.

(and really, you’re worried about THIS thread being derailed?)

Yes, yes, IRL threats. It’s all you know how to do, after all. Thanks for admitting your plan in advance though, I’ll be sure to tell them all about you. And the other people who can deal with IRL threats, of course.

Oh, they’re terrible. Hackneyed plots, one-dimensional characters, physical impossibilities, the combat is pathetic compared to anything else he’s written, and the ideological bullshit is even worse than Watch on the Rhine, and that’s saying a lot.

But people aren’t content, generally, to attack Paladin of Shadows on those grounds. Sexism, racism, misogyny, sexual deviance, “he wrote rape fantasies”, these things are thrown at him more often, it seems to me, than genuine criticisms about his writing itself, when that writing is so incredibly easy to lambaste!

It’s disappointing.
