Why did you make a new thread after the editors explicitly told you not to in the last one? We were waiting for the old 016 thread to die so that we could post a thread soliciting submissions for 017. The new thread is here >>22185288. Go post there and let this useless shitheap of a thread die. You’re actively hindering &amp’s progress and delaying the release of the new issue by doing this.

Stop bumping this useless fucking thread. I’m not going to post a call for submissions here, because everyone interested in &amp has already heard about the 016 release weeks ago and therefore won’t click the fifth thread about it. Whoever you are, you clearly aren’t involved in &amp in any official capacity, and you’re not helping by doing this. Kindly fuck off.

Considering that I’m the one editing 017, I did want to make the new thread, because there’s important information about the 017 release date and the type of submissions we’re looking for right now that I needed to include in the OP. That’s neither petty nor unreasonable on my part. Now stop bumping this pointless fucking thread.

All posters itt are bad-faith actors and phonies. The original 016 thread did just fine as people were discussing the new issue, it lasted a a good while but that was that, and then one awaits the next edition. &amp does not do CfS threads as a standard (I remember the occasional one - with an original image - but that was basically just a let-know that the magazine was still going, what with some hiati); there is no need for generals (you saw the shambles prior to 016). Perhaps some might think differently now (Zulu, Standards, genre-gêne), but nah. . . On the other hand, posting this thread is not gonna make the month of July come any sooner or later. Most affable reader, be wary—these threads bring no good and are populated but with nithings trying to sully the name of the periodical and give the casual /lit/ viewer a fatigue of it. Write: read; and ignore.

[Anonymous No.22185778]

>>22185735
Nothing I did was in bad faith. I was under the impression that I was doing you guys a solid by remaking the thread that Gardner killed by bumping over ten different threads on page 9.
I’m not in your discord clique. I didn’t know you wanted the thread killed, and I certainly didn’t know that it was going to be remade under some hyper-specific criteria. Now you don’t want threads made at all? And I’m supposed to know that now?
It’s bullshit that you’d come in here and mark me as an enemy of &amp out to get you. You should be thanking me instead of throwing a collective tantrum.

[Anonymous No.22185784]

>>22185735
&amp has always done CFS threads. Search “submit &amp” in the warosu archive, filter by OPs only, and you’ll find a whole bunch of CFS threads going back to early 2021, long before the magazine ever went on hiatus. The thread I posted (that got deleted by the godforsaken jannies, a curse be upon them) was approved by both the editor-in-chief and the 017 guest editor. But you’re right that this 016 thread is unsanctioned and pointless, and was clearly posted by a bad-faith actor who wants to derail things.

I’m reposting the CFS here so that any anons who stumble upon this will see it.

Send your work in now for a chance to be featured in &amp Issue Seventeen, coming the first week of July. We’re enforcing a stricter word-count limit for this issue, so anything over 5000 words is unlikely to be accepted. We especially are in need of artwork, classifieds, Steal These Stories, poetry, and photos right now.

See this (reader): trying to antagonize, to make it a (collectively addressed &amp thing (discord and whatnot).
I (whom (You) replied to) am just an interested reader and one-time contributor speaking xis mind, - maybe that’s misinterpretable, but how it's spun can’t help but seem telling to me.
I don’t care about the difference b/w last deleted thread and this thread -: they’re the same fucking thread! I’m not the one arguing that these are actually (truly) impeded &amp, just that they're (lately) sus, and not too needed.

>>22185784
I might have understated. It's just that those threads were usually small but genuinely appreciated - as a signal that the magazine is still on (but doubtless also as a spurring-on to submit by some wild thread-reader) - and prior to any kind of drama.

Well I’m sorry, I thought you were the editor based on your writing style. I’m not a bad faith actor and I’m not trying to antagonize. What I did was done to help &amp. I’m not in their inner circle. I don’t know what thread is being killed or why. I don’t know when a new thread is being made or what transient criteria that thread must meet.
I’m the one who was antagonized by someone in this discord clique who I apparently wronged in some unforgivable way. Like I said earlier: my thread was too old to delete, theirs was not. I get that these threads are a minefield of shitposters and bad actors, but let’s not jump to such venomous conclusions of every poster who didn’t get the memo posted to the locked off discord.

[Anonymous No.22185910]

The editors posted multiple times in the last thread requesting that no more 016 threads be made and explaining that the next thread would be an 017 call for submissions. The Discord is public; anyone is free to make an account and join. Please stop.

There was also a post in that last thread where someone replied to those requests demanding that they stop pretending to be the editor. How am I supposed to parse that?
> The Discord is public; anyone is free to make an account and join.
I made a discord three weeks ago in order to join the server. It wouldn’t allow me to join and I was told in the thread that it was locked off to accounts that weren’t at least 6 months old. Did that change?

[Anonymous No.22185938]

The server that’s blocked off to accounts that aren’t 6 months old is the /wg/ Discord, I think. AFAIK the &amp Discord is open to all accounts, regardless of account age, as long as they follow the rules.

Fine, I’ll bite Frank. How much are you paying?

[Anonymous No.22190109]

>>22189486
Let me guess, Frank is going to decide what is good enough for compensation. Kek. Here, let me go over this slowly: F Gardner has zero intention of founding any online or print periodical or anthology. None. He wanted to flex on me because one of the few limp criticisms he has against &amp is that we don’t pay contributors. Frank can be my guest. He doesn’t have anywhere near the sort of wherewithal necessary to start the thing, let alone actually do the thing.
But let’s imagine for a moment that he did find a decent team and did come up with a cool periodical or anthology. He will be paying contributors with his own money, and that will be that. After three years, I’ve finally made &amp ‘profitable’, which means that the $30 I get on Patreon every month finally covers the $20 monthly Canva bill, the $5 web hosting bill, with $5 (read ‘‘em and weep) for me to throw around when I go to town (I even decided to ‘pay’ contributors to the Mystery Anthology by offering them a copy of the book (rendering that project immediately into the red (depending on sales (which as you can imagine aren’t ever that substantial (though I’d like to know more about Tales’ Sales))))). It’s entirely possible that Frank is wealthy enough to not care whether his project net loses money(he is obviously used to losing money)—god knows I kept the magazine afloat just because I wanted to, for my sake—but he will capitulate to his own ego if anybody dares to call him a faggot, and then what? He has no skill. His ‘work’ has demonstrated clearly that he has no skill for design, editing, or composition. I might give him credit for the marketing he’s done, however his only skill in that regard is having enough money to consistently navigate 4chan’s terrible selfservice advertising interface meanwhile samefagging harder than any other human on god’s gray earth. In short, he is simply not made of the right stuff, chiefly, the ability to take his Ls with grace, and the ability to work with others. Frank does not want to collaborate. He’s never once contributed to &amp. I’ve asked countless times. He would rather sit back and let people bring him up, and now that the only dude hyping him up and attempting to convince people that he was /ourshill/—me—has openly called for his videotaped dismemberment, he wants to start a magazine. Kek. A hearty and visceral kek.

You’ve jumped from the quantitative measure to the qualitative conclusion with no justification. He can have as many books as he wants, it doesn’t change the fact that no one buys them, no one reads them, no one has a single positive thing to say about them or him.

Who gives a fuck? This is just Jerry Springer/Kiwifarms bullshit. Publish the fucking stories. Find a nice font, throw it on a gaussian blurred backdrop and shut the fuck up about your petty problems. All you're doing is drawing attention to the worst parts of /lit/ authors.

It's not good press. What you are doing is creating narratives around you. That is it. The people who are interested in those narratives are not going to read your magazine and they are certainly not going to contribute anything you want them to contribute. They are here for the drama, and when that drama dies down they will fuel it. I have seen this shit countless times, and, more importantly, I have seen how far they are willing to escalate for entertainment's sake.
You are not going to be so smug about "good press" when Kiwifarms takes an interest in you. Those on here who fuck with you consider you a joke. Those on Kiwifarms who fuck with you will, by default, consider you a pedophile, and they will treat you as such.
The fact of this matter is that you guys are bordering on lowcowdom. You are attention hungry, failed artists who have branded yourselves after a notorious anonymous imageboard, and to top that off, the only entertaining thing you've produced is concentrated entirely around discord infighting. They will have a field day with you. If you try to play this same game of "good press" with Kiwifarms you will only grow this audience, and when this audience grows to include the likes of /cow/ or /baph/ you will get the attention you deserve, and you will not like it.

Even if such a person existed, that doesn't even come close to describing me. You can bully Gardner to your heart's content. I do not care. I've probably bullied him more than you have.
My only concern is that you are drawing the attention of people who we /lit/ authors are very lucky to have not caught the attention of thus far. To these people, you and Gardner are one degree of separation apart. They will not side with you. They will not read your magazine. They will not become fans. They will dox Gardner, then they will dox you, then they will dox the people who contribute to your magazine and then they will move onto /wg/; and when they are done, a worse group will take over.
It takes a certain type of person to take up the mantle of "4chan author". That person, at least from what I've seen of those of you have been doxed so far, are complete jokes who can be made into wonderful content. I want to see that avoided. Now stop your chad larp and do something that isn't continuing to embarrass us.

Doesn't matter if they're true or not. If the truth is inconvenient to entertainment then the truth can be twisted. Half the shit on Kiwifarms is a series of hyperbolic half-truths. Your story so far is entertaining enough without those, imagine what it'll look like when they're done writing it.

Not that anon but Krake is genuinely one of the better authors out there in the /lit/ scene. I seriously recommend his YT channel as well as it's far and away better than anything Unreal has done.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oMJSPGrqmIw&ab_channel=JamesKrake

I hope Unreal and &amp keep this up, if only for the singular fact that their tantrums are going to lead to the "/lit/ author" being something that is quarantined to a single general. The self assigned author is a plague on this board that the average /lit/ user is growing tired of.
