The gumpai Plushie Drama

The gumpai Plushie Drama refers to an incident in November 2024, where indie V-Tuber gumpai publicly called out fancrafter Kusa on Twitter for selling handmade dolls of her V-tuber persona (Nov 24 2024). This lead to criticism directed at gumpai for her alleged disregard for V-tuber fandom norms, as well as the racist nature of her responses.
== The Posts ==
=== gumpai's Initial Post ===
This status got almost 300k views within 24 hours, and was widely screenshotted and shared.
=== Kusa's Response ===
=== gumpai's Follow Up ===
== Reactions ==
While gumpai received some sympathy for her desire to control and profit from her V-tuber model, several prominent V-tubers sided with Kusa and their right to sell fancrafts.
Other V-tuber fan accounts asserted that fancrafts are the community norm (Nov 24 2024) and attempted to share some of their favourite fan artists to drum up business (Nov 24 2024).

The hot new thing

the hot new thing is a 2003 post by wisteria with 213 comments into two pages.
The discussion starts out with a lot of chat about Buffy fandom and then becomes an intense discussion of slash and whether it is common and trendy.
==Some Topics Discussed==
* pairings and trends in Buffyverse
* does slash trivialize and insult gay people?
* massive generalizations
* reading personal motivation into fanfic
* popular fandoms "soaking up" the better writers
* "Sure, Spander and the like lends itself to lots of snark and great dialog, but it always seems to end with some cold dead seed spilling into someones bowels. Why not try a classic sexless buddy story (i.e., Bing Crosby/Bob Hope or Dean Martin/Jerry Lewis)? Lots of snark there, and no cheeks were parted in the process."

* fandom and profit, inequities
* the risks and sloppiness of the post office
* if fanworks can't get fair money, how about more ego boo and compliments

The main problem is, however, that we suddenly found ourselves, at SF conventions, up to our collective necks in screaming Trekkies.

The main problem is, however, that we suddenly found ourselves, at SF conventions, up to our collective necks in screaming Trekkies. is a 1975 essay by Bjo Trimble.
It was printed as a letter of comment in Menagerie #6 in response to Paula Smith's essay No Trekkies allowed, gang, and this means you!.
==Some Topics Discussed==
* the old argument that "real fans" were fans of literature, and Star Trek fans were brainless television viewers: "Trekkies can be subdivided into so many other groups; the people who will eventually become readers of SF, if they aren't, already, and the people who are going to stay visually oriented."
* real fans getting cornered by "weirdo" Spockies
* the lack of value of Trekfic; that it "is probably not going to become acceptable to SF fandom, simply because it is still basically a copy of someone else's universe"
* "The main problem is, however, that we suddenly found ourselves, at SF conventions, up to our collective necks in screaming Trekkies. Now, most SF fans secretly watched and did enjoy ST. However, if you have it shoved down your throat every con, you get a bit tired of the whole thing. Even I get pretty tired of being told something over and over and over. I did start ST fandom, remember; there's not much new I can be told about the show."

The nonnies made them do it! (Fannish history. SPN. A/B/O)

The nonnies made them do it! [Fannish history. SPN. A/B/O] is a meta essay by netweight about the beginnings of A/B/O in Supernatural fandom.
In the essay, netweight provides context, detailed statistics, vocabulary, and many explanatory links which explain the popularity of the Alpha/Beta/Omega trope.
Essay chapters are:
:0. Intro
:1. Context
:2. From anon to namespace
:3. What's in a name?
netweight also created a helpful timeline reference link .
The title of the meta is likely a reference to the AO3 tag Nonnies Made Me Do It. Nonnies are anon meme users; the term is heavily associated with fail_fandomanon these days but likely came out of anonymous Supernatural communities.

It is unclear if it is an "official" FAQ.
Some of many topics:
* What's the truth about the alt.tv.star-trek.tos FAQ?
* What is K/S?
* Didn't Gene Roddenberry deny that there was any truth behind K/S?
* Star Trek was not the type of show that would show Gays in a positive light, was it?

The outing of Astolat and Fan History

The outing of Astolat and Fan History is a post by Laura Hale at Fan History Wiki's blog. 
The post is a response to a much-criticized incident that occurred in mid-2008, which other fans argued was outing, and Laura argues here was not. 
Incidentally, her argument is very similar to the argument Will Shetterly had made about his outing of LiveJournal user coffeeandink during RaceFail 09; both were in the vein of "if it's public, you can link to it", but ran counter to a community norm in LiveJournal fandom, where there was an assumption of a degree of safety in posting RL name info to a personal account that was not google-indexed, even if the post wasn't friendslocked. Like Tumblr after it, on LJ you were expected to know not to publicize information that looked private, but keep it in the fandom. 
Laura Hale's arguments that people should know better, ostensibly reasonable, are considered disingenuous by many. See Laura_Hale_(fan)#Outing and Fan_History_Wiki#Controversy.

The plot thickens in fan fiction

The plot thickens in fan fiction is a typical 101 introduction to fanfiction article. It has the subtitle "Loyal followers find the Web a magical place to spin their own versions" and uses Harry Potter fanfic as a starting point to explain fanfiction to a lay audience.
Henry Jenkins is quoted extensively and two male copyright experts give their opinion on the legality of fanfic.Fans get a word in about the appeal of reading and writing fanfiction and the article ends with links to a few websites and definitions of fanfic terms.
Links:Terms:
==Reactions and Reviews==
*"The primary impetus seems to be Harry Potter (with a few obscure fandoms for contrast value) and the impact of online discourse and internet-based publishing. There are some great quotes by Henry Jenkins, and -- this is a new one for me, at least in commercial journalism -- a surprisingly neutral acknowledgement of RPS. Good legal points and a creditable shortlist of sites to check out and fandom terms round out a fairly diverse and interesting article."Bennie Robbins. Metafic (Accessed 01 April 2012)

The present and the distance

Back To The Place is a group slut fic by behindthec in which Panic is Stranded on a Desert Island. It is Ryden-heavy and ultimately GSF.
Summary: There is no way to summarize this that doesn't sound ridiculous, so I leave you with my original cheesy!blurb(tm): There are 17,508 islands in Indonesia, about 6,000 of which are inhabited. On August 31, 2008, returning from an Australian tour in the middle of the year's most violent storm to date, a plane carrying Panic at the Disco loses power, veers off course, and crashes into one of the remaining 11,508 islands. This is their story.
Notes: PLANEWRECKFIC HAS ARRIVED
