(no subject)

Rules have been tentatively posted in the profile of kittens_and_spitefic! Input is still welcome, naturally. Next up I'll be working on a comm description and at least one example post. (I've already got one roughly typed up, I just want to get a pinned post up first.)

Also, if anyone can direct me to a good tutorial on posting images to Dreamwidth, I would appreciate it very much! I know how to do it myself, but I suspect there are more than a few potential community members who don't, and I don't know if I have the patience to make my own tutorial as well.

I should also come up with a community icon. I'll have to see what I can find.

Edit: Tentative summary:

About this comm:

Spite can be an excellent motivator, but there aren't a lot of natural situations where you can prompt it to promote your preferred content. Nor is feeding the trolls ever a good idea. And just what are you going to do with all of the adorable pictures of cats and other animals you've been saving over the years?

Enter Kittens and Spitefic. The goal of this community is to prompt fan content by acting like a total troll and pretending to bash what you want to see up one side and down the other. Commenters then engage with the supposed "troll" by spamming them with cat (and other animal) macros and/or content that caters to everything the original poster professes to hate: Writing short (or long) fics in the comments, drawing the exact thing OP was ranting about, even sharing links to fic recs and meta/analysis posts. Roleplay getting one up on someone with bad opinions while creating more work for something you love, and discover new things you may be a fan of in the process!

Still not quite sure how it works? Check out [this 18+ example post] or [this all ages example post]!

Kittens and Spitefic: It's everything you want, with a very silly approach.
