My name is Benjamin. I come from the UK (although I was born in New Zealand) and I have been described as having a ginger personality. Whatever that means. I assume they're referring to my hair and my Ronald Weasley nature. Aside from that, I'm the only male blogger worth knowing.

You can thank Amber for that lovely introduction, but you deserve much more than just a small paragraph showing my nutty nature, therefore if you do wish to find out more, please visit the

Dear Jane AKA “___Touch Me”,

I felt I needed to write this post, simply because after your antics yesterday I lost countless hours of sleep last night. Why? With a combined effort of disbelief that you could do such a thing, and thinking ‘what if what you said was true?’

So lets get this started with your username. Why choose such a ridiculous name? Seriously, after your 1598 posts of arguing your point of view and making yourself looking like a complete e-tard, I would not want to touch you. Not even with a barge pole. So please, choose something else?

As some of you may know, Jane is a member of a place which consumes most of ‘my life’. Otherwise known as Snark. Said member has been registered at Snark since the 8th April 2007 and since then has been strongly disliked amongst members of the forum, and I was never sure of why.

Of course, now I do. Jane contradicts herself and comes out with utter rubbish that all we can do is reply with LOL JANE. I am constantly baffled as to what she was thinking when making certain posts which have no sense in the real world at all.

For instance a thread which was opened by Becky about a person who was offering to install scripts for money even though they are highly insecure scripts. Jane proceeded to leave a reply:

Well if he is telling them that it is insecure then it is their fault for allowing him to do it at the end of the day.

Even after another member, Amanda (the one with the big BOOBIES), pointed out if that was the case “drug dealers are absolved of all crimes because addicts know how dangerous drugs are.” Jane, being Jane, stuck to her guns:

At the end of the day it is the person taking the drugs whose fault it is, the drug dealer doesn’t force them to buy them, the drug dealer doesn’t force them to take them.

However, being a drug dealer is still a crime. Installing insecure scripts is not a crime.

You what? By that reasoning we should just let all drug dealers go free to carry on doing what they were doing and make drug dealing legal. And in fact, pointed out by Amanda, “installing freeware scripts for any money is still illegal.”

On the other hand, Jane used to have quite a bit of respect from me. She used to handle strong criticism well, along with very strong views which she would never budge from, but I feel that Jane then took that too far. Especially with what she did last night.

As we all know, or should know. Harry Potter and the Deathly Hallows is released at midnight tonight. A lot of members at Snark are going into hermit mode as to the current spoiler scares being spammed across the internet. Before that, a discussion was started in a positive attitude about the release on the 21st. Like every other discussion thread that Jane posts on, an argument begins, this time being that spoilers don’t ruin the book. A few members lost it with her, and explained their utter dislike for her. Me being included.

As Jane’s grande exit (as Jem nicely put it), she decided to spam all the threads with spoilers which she had read. Jane stooped to a new low. Jem as a moderator at Snark quickly acted and deleted the posts, but Jane still managed to ruin it for some of us. I read in total 3 spoilers, and my lose of sleep last night was a result of worrying if what I saw was true. Jordan, another moderator found a couple more and in the process said it ruined the book for her.

So well done Jane. You knew that Snark was swarming with Harry Potter fanatics, you now knew we all hated you, so you stooped to a new low and tried to ruin what we liked most. Even on your latest post at your website you say you don’t like spoilers.

It is quite sad that someone would scan over half the book in order to spoil the release date fun. I do not mind small spoilers, because until you have read the book then you will not know whether it is true, therefore it is no different to people making up theories on what will happen, but half the book is just mean and very time consuming. However, I think it is silly that people are avoiding the internet in order to avoid the spoilers.

Right from the horses mouth, eh? It is a shame people set out to ruin it for other people on purpose. Oh. Wait. Are you contradicting yourself here? Weren’t you the one posting spoils all over Snark? Thought so.

Jane. ___Touch Me. Whatever. You are now my most hated member of Snark. As Amanda said, you are a Fucktard.

I’ve never truly hated somebody online before. But the HP thread was too much.

I’ve dealt with my fair share of trolls and people that I thought were just a bit annoying (not you, though, Ben, you’re on my cool list), but I’ve not met very many people that I genuinely disliked. It didn’t start out that way, though — I’d just think of her as part nuisance, part source of amusement.

People praised her in the compliments thread for handling criticism well, but I don’t think she fully understood what was being said to her half the time. I had to flat-out insult her before she twigged on — I didn’t think people could get that oblivious.

Whatever smidgen of respect I might have had for her is certainly gone now. She’s a fucktard, through and through, up and down, in every sense of the word.

I especially love the last part. She’s just a huge hypocrite, and this whole fiasco was immature and retarded on her part. At least now we know.

Unfortunately, I suffered from the same distress that you did last night. I *think* I saw a spoiler, although my reaction of closing the window pretty quickly might have saved me a little reaction.

I did respect her for her difference of opinion, and her persistence. But last night just ruined it for me, I’ve never disliked anyone I’ve never met face to face to such an extreme extent before. She blew it, she really did. She could’ve left with what little respect she had from some members, but she didn’t.

I missed it all! I missed it! But thank you for explaining it to me. It’s a darn shame that she had to be so immature about it all. She shouldn’t feel any better for spoiling it for some people, especially the really really hardcore HP fans. There’s no glory in raining on people’s parades.

Oh yeah, I remember the username, although I don’t remember her overly well.

Spoilers totally don’t ruin a book for me, thankfully. I went online and read a bunch of spoilers, but I’ll still enjoy the book :spin:

Weird way to get revenge, though. I wonder why she felt the need?

I find it funny how she revealed spoilers to the board, yet on her blog claims to love Harry Potter and dislike spoilers.

Oh, and she had a dumb username too.

OH NOOOO!! I go to your site and read about Snark, I go to Becky’s site and read about snark. I feel I have missed sooo mcuh!!!! FU**! What has happened??? Members being bitchy and can’t take anything? :no:

I am fairly new member at Snark and I hadn’t noticed her annoying behavior! Posting spoilers…that really is the weirdest mixture of immature and cruel!

We can just laugh at how she uses cutenews.
