looks like someone took their toys and went home
or just decided to stop being a stupid bitch and post only under her 'real' name
Or just moved her socky home... don't click on the diva site without waybacking or cache'ing it otherwise you will go to a porn site.
Gosh think she did that on purpose? (see angie's comment) Oh since someone made a comment to me yesterday about now 'hating' this author, I have to say I don't. I don't hate her at all. I think she was stupid. I think if she had an all powerful need to share her opinion she should have done it as herself and not shouted to the heavens 'look at me - I am a sock puppet - watch me as I bitch about people who write in my genre and are doing it so well the are sell really well while I am so talented I have time to create socks'.
And of course I have lost complete and total respect for her. But hate her? No, she isn't worth the energy. But deleting your site and having your url go to a porn site (see angie's comment) - so deserves a post *g*.

The site goes to a porn URL because that's what happens when you release your blogspot URL. Spammers come in and snag it immediately. Same thing happened to mine. So the two things are mutually exclusive and actually have nothing to do with each other.
And Sybil, you sure do use strong language for someone who just thinks someone else is dumb. I shudder to think what you'd call me if you ever hated me because...dang, you've got some harsh verbiage going on there, girl!

Thanks for the info...
You know it prolly has to do with the fact I HATE the action but not the person. I hate socks. And honestly it has nothing to do with romanceland but with fandom and putting up with far too much shit because of it.
Is that fair? Maybe not. But the internet being what it is, socks are such an abuse of trust.
As I said before we are all 'hiding' behind a name in a way. But once you identify with a name - creating one or more and interacting with the same people is shitty. It would be like you creating another name, not linking it to 'angie' or your blog in any way then doing nothing but put up glowing reviews about Samhain books.
And it doesn't help that I have seen too many people taken advantage of because of socks.
But yeah... I can be a touch not nice when pissed off *g*. At least I have very few 'hot buttons' LOL.

OKAY WTF!?
Help me? What happened, what's going on? Who is this?
Pretty please tell me?
Don't make me give you puppy eyes!
I've often wondered about people creating more than one persona and now I know what it is called - I didnt know they were called sockpuppets. Some people have way too much time on their hands!
