Funny how all dem moderators and supporters just can't keep the lights on over there. 

It's Deja Vu all over again.

Not sure when it happened, but as of today I noticed that Stop the Goodreads Bullies is (once again) on enforced vacation from the internet.  Anyone visiting the page will only see the boilerplate with the usual suspension notice and for the webmaster to contact Hostgator.

Can't even remember how many times this has occured now- four, five?  You'd think with all the 'people' behind the site they could pass the hat amongst themselves to keep the page up.  What- Melissa Douthit/Athena Parker, et al, can't afford $60-80 a year to keep the fucking thing running,,,?  Couldn't they hit up Anne Rice for a few bucks to underwrite it?

Guess there's a lot of holes in dem socks.

As a friend said: this is why you should *always* get a lawyer.

This just in: Pub Net- thatTwitter account that so vigorously stands behind Ellora's Cave- sent a... well, it's a fax, I can say that much... letter to the judge presiding over the Ellora's Cave defamation case trying to wriggle out of having to appear as witnesses in the trial, aka- have their identities revealed.  What follows is some Bugs Bunny lawyerspeak, highlighted by the use of such pillars of legalese like "stalker trolls", "troll", "vicious troll" and "jealousy of authors".

They also cite STGRB blogposts as their evidence as why they shouldn't have to appear.  Yep. Click the link to see it.

Pub Net Sends Ridiculous Request to the Judge

All of the above is used in an attempt to compel the judge to "grant them protection from your magistrates and yourself (sic)."  In other words, they're writing the judge to ask him for protection from... (wait for it)... the judge. 

What's also interesting is looking at the fax number at the top of the page, the 510 area code listed belongs to Richmond, CA, which is near Oakland.  A friend who looked into it stated that the numbers found with that prefix are mobile phones routed through a VOIP provider.  Just what you'd expect from anyone trying desperately trying to hide their identity. 

Smells a lot like STGRB/Melisaa Douthit to me.  Time will definitely tell.

Time.com claimed STGRB wasn't against negative reviews. Yeah, I know. Well, for Melissa and Emma Paul, it really is about the reviews. Watch Paul turned on her fan who left a positive review for the alien porn book. The reader's crime was disliking Melissa's books.

I guess for Douthit the fight is about the reviews while for Paul it's about knowing her master.

Back to Off Topic with Part 2.

Oops has turned into a bullytrollreviewer, who would have guessed? Since she is such a lovely lady she later changed her rating from 1* star to 3*** star. Emma didn´t want to hurt the author´s feelings. Emma totally lives by the old saying "If you don´t have anything nice to say, better shut the fuck up, you moron!." If only. 

Jaq as always is a little slow on the uptake and carpet-bombed the "Off Topic" book via her several socks she has lost on GR. Oh noes! Cold feet are really a pain in the ass, Jaq, aren´t they?

Paula from the Xenophobia planet, however, did a turnaround and instead of kissing Rick´s ass, she´s kissing every single one of the STGRB chick´s asses. Tastes are different! Paula shared private *gasp* conversations from a secret group to another, forgetting for a moment that Rick is her friend. My oh my, Paula, Paula. That´s not nice! 

But how to really deal with "these people" is something Melody Clark has figured out. She does not need sock puppet accounts like Jaq D. Dorkins or V.L. Dreyer. She does not need to play the victim like Emma Paul. She doesn´t even have to run a hate site. No, Melody Clark hurts the market. Yeap, that´s right. If there would be an BBA Whisperer award for the dumbest comment ever made Oops would have a hard time to defend her title. Dear Melody, please hurt the market. We are all thrilled not to run accidently into your crapsterpiece. You´re welcome.

When everything´s said and done, this is what the STGRB/LOSE/ATA chicks (*waves to Mike*) really do in their secret pigeonholes: Screaming like idiots!
