I've got plans for this 'fic; it won't be anytime in the near future-- not within the next few missions, certainly --but soon enough...

Epic Troll, or just plain Bleep!fic? by

I follow the Marysues community over at LJ (a great source for missions, if I do say so myself), and came across this post. Out of morbid curiosity, I went over to ff.net and looked at the reviews for this... interesting 'fic. They're quite amusing, though most are rather vitriolic.
Tl;dr: Question: Is it a troll ala My Immortal, or just something that really needs to burn? -

I'm calling troll based on this AN alone.
Or someone with a sticky "1" key.
Actually, the ANs all seem to be quite snark. Gotta be a troll. -

I'd give it a fifty/fifty chance it's a troll, 50/50 that it's Bleepfic.

Agreed. I can't tell either. by

But then, I was never really able to tell in the first place. Either way, it's dreadful and spoiling canon, so KILL IT KILL IT KILL IT.
*cough* Of course I'm calm. -

...I honestly cannot tell. IIRC, I once stumbled across a Twilight crossover fic somewhere on FF.net whose author made a point of making their identity as a troll as brain-searingly obvious as possible.
With this fic, unfortunately, it's too difficult to tell at a glance. If it is a troll, they're being just subtle enough to raise questions. I'd say there's no way in the nine circles of Hell it could be serious, but since I've so far pointedly refused to read any of the badfics killed by the OS, I really wouldn't know for sure... -
So, kill it regardless? (nm) by

There have already been several troll fics sporked by the PPC, including the (in)famous Half Life: Full Life Consequences. Trolls shouldn't be given free passes just because of why they happen to be writing. If you judge it to be bad enough or interesting enough to warrant a mission, go ahead and write it.
There is also apparently a Troll Division in the Department of Bad Parody, but I believe there's only been one recorded mission. -

Even though it's a troll.
Maybe a Dept of Troll!Sues would be a fun idea... -

The Troll Division is in the Department of Bad Parody. It doesn't currently have any active agents. -
There already is. (nm) by
