Don't respond to them, and warn other people not to — responding is what the guy wants, and it drives the post up in views.

Prior to Kinja, I headed the trollpatrol team for Jezebel, as many people here know. We dealt with rape gifs, violent pornography, racism, and harassment regularly, but there was a system in place with which to have it reported and dealt with. Banning didn't usually result in the same person immediately making a new…

I certainly agree! Its a system that allows for easy abuse, unfortunately. I just want to gently nudge as many people as possible towards knowing how to report (email), and then have them share how to handle it to others so that kind of bullshit is nuked as quickly as possible.

There's no report function for Kinja, unfortunately. I've already let the writer know about this, but in the future, definitely email. Thanks!

I understand that. But there are no mainpage mods any more and writers get sometimes hundreds of notifications on an article. How else is someone going to know there's an issue to be resolved?

Reporting in the comment section isn't very helpful. If you see something, email the author of the story and cc help@gawker.com. They'll handle it.

I know we're not going back to it, but the "pinks" version of the commenting platform was by far and away my favorite.

It's true, I hugged her and instantly realized she hadn't processed my name yet.

Wait, was this the thing that was in the corner? I didn't even know it was there!

You may bow.

mpreg (or male impregnation) is another popular trope of knotting. And while that deserves a whole post on its own (it exists both inside and outside the world of knotting and fan fiction)

Geeze, I gave up around 180. So it's good?

One of my roommates came home one night with some of her shitty friends and ate my entire birthday cake. I sure as shit freaked out on her.

I'm not a huge romance reader, but a friend of mine got me into Zoe Archer a couple of years back and she's the only romance author I regularly seek out:
