Allthat jas And The Very Cunning Grudgewank
From Fandom wank wiki
An offshoot of Lexicongate. Grudgewank with a side of sockpuppets -- a tasty recipe for wankas to enjoy!
February 13, 2008: Melissa Anelli of The Leaky Cauldron was not happy with Steve Vander Ark of the HP Lexicon, for a number of reasons best left to Lexicongate aficionados. While this information had been given in Cleolinda's latest Lexicongate update, allthat_jas promised the second coming of Laptopgate in her new wank report. allthat_jas had been forced to alert Fandom Wank to Melissa's hypocrisy, as allthat_jas had every reason to believe that Melissa was living in a upmarket condominium, purchased with the money of deceived Harry Potter fans.
The merest research found nothing of the sort, and wankas quickly declared grudgewank. In their disappointment, the wankas turned to exchanging recipes, trading pics of John Barrowman in his underwear, adding funny tags to the post, and sockpuppet hunting. A little detective work unearthed the identity of the OP, who by amazing coincidence was quasi_hayley, friend of Steve Vander Ark's, and a Harry Potter convention organizer with a grudge against The Leaky Cauldron and JKR.

- "I know for a fact that Melissa used Leaky money to buy herself a new laptop." - Anonymous, quoted in the Wank Report
- "But they have to declare those salaries and file tax returns etc. for the company which the general public would be able to request - I've not been able to find any such records." - allthat_jas
- "Where did you look?...." - seanchaigirl
- "I was just googling for where these things would be available." - allthat_jas [1]
- "I'll bet a hundred galleons that any encyclopedia of JKR's would have had the same mistakes as the Lexicon. It's my guess that she intended to copy and paste right from the Lex into the encyclopedia. Not all of it, certainly, but lets face it, the Lex is one of the best resources for HP mania out there. It may not be 100% accurate, but neither is Encyclopedia Britannica." - Arianhrod [2]
- "I'm a JKR fan who thinks she's waaaaay too big for her boots." - allthat_jas
- "Too big for her boots"? Okay, fine, whatever, let's just take that analogy further, shall we? THEY ARE HER FUCKING BOOTS. SHE MADE THEM. SHE CAN DO WHATEVER THE FUCK SHE WANTS WITH THEM. IF SHE WANTS TO ALLOW SOMEONE TO MAKE MONEY OFF A WEBSITE THAT TALKS ABOUT HER BOOTS, SHE CAN DO THAT. IF SHE DOES NOT WANT TO ALLOW SOMEONE TO STEAL HER BOOTS AND SELL THEM FOR SOME QUICK CASH, SHE CAN DO THAT, TOO. THEY ARE HER FUCKING BOOTS. And you are a fucking moron." - Puipui [3]
