yes, this is about the new rules on ff.net. and yes, i did sign the petition. both, in fact. but then something happened. i visited orin's page, and it was updated. her words really gave me a kick in the pants, and i am ashamed at what i had said about xing in emails i sent to her. i am ashamed, because i took part in bullying someone who probably had no choice in the matter. i am really, really sorry.
i realize now, that when i complain about stupid stuff like that, it makes everything i wrote, including "banshee universe" and "May and December", sound hollow and meaningless.
this is xing's site, and like most of the other authors affected by this new rule, i felt like the decision was very arbitrary, like xing was doing this intentionally. i guess alot of you think xing was hunched over the computer, laughing like a maniac, bent on destroying all our fun. that most likely isn't the case, because the fics that have shown up lately have really gone overboard, advocating child-sex, even beastiality. something had to give. so i'm guessing that xing is trying to avoid a lawsuit and other worse things so this site can stay up.
and another thing: PLEASE DON'T POST NC-17 FICS AS R-RATED!!! THAT'S JUST ASKING FOR TROUBLE AND I WILL BE VERY PISSED!!!!
this poem is what certain characters in the sonic-verse would think if they knew about this. knuckles, shadow and super sonic belong to sega and fleetway.

bitching
every day i'm lonely
longing for a friend,
but only knowing duty
taken away from home
when i was young
by a father
who couldn't love me
guarding an emerald
while everyone else
is complaining
bitching about everyone
and everything
it's disgusting
********
i lost my only friend
everything i knew
lost in a blink of an eye
they didn't care if i cried
these humans hate each other
killing, hurting
mobbing the weak
complaining and bitching
while i'm dying
they worry about trivial shit
they never lost a friend
i don't understand it...
********
will they ever learn what it's like
to be someone else?
to live like me
thanks to ebony?
merged with sonic,
never living, just surviving.
not thinking, nor feeling, just being...
while everyone else is complaining
bitching about shit that won't kill them
won't rob them of their soul,
it could be worse... thought you should know.
********
can't they see?
others suffered worse shit!
still they bitch.
they have it so easy
can't they see that?
yet, still they bitch.
