Next step: Send the Fedaykins!!Baraka Bryan wrote:so i befriended Byron on facebook (put him on limited profile so he can't lurk me at all )
and I wrote this on his wall: "so how does it feel to know you're aiding and abetting the highjacking and destruction of your grandfather's legacy?"
2 minutes later, the post is gone, so i post this
"lol, so you treat any words of dissent the same here as you do at dunenovels eh? just delete and pretend they never happened? how about facing the criticism like a man?"
edit to add: that post got deleted and he removed the facebook 'friendship'

I don't even bother trying to (be)friend them anymore. (But I did send TAZbo a "Hey buddy! I found you! How ya doin'?!" message. That oughta freak him out a bit. )
Kim still seems fairly nice and non-offensive, but the way they both have part of the Dune cover as their avatars ... Sheesh, people, is your being the grandchild of a famous writer the high/selling point of your existence?
How sad.

Wow ... TAZ actually replied!
This is rich, no? I'M hurting the Dune legacy more than Kevin and Brian? By pointing out Frank's mistakes. I suppose hiding and denying them would be the proper course of action, according to TAZ?
Of course it would: that's what he does for Kevin and McDune!
Damn. I see the intervening year or so has not managed to provide him with any firmer grasp of reality. Once a head-case always a head-case?
"[T]here aren't many, if any, inaccuracies."
As for hurting people's feelings ... is this an indication I've struck a nerve or two? Some whisper of pain in a private moment?
Oooh, I really hope so.
For the record, there was never any communication regarding any such agreement. Must have happened inside his head?Re: Hey, buddy!
Dude, I thought we agreed to respect each other's personal spaces.
I don't understand what your problem with Kevin is. It seems like it goes further than supposed inaccuracies. I mean, I have a problem with errors in established universes too but I think they did a great job in keeping the errors down... and I stand by the fact that there aren't many, if any, inaccuracies.... Most people don't even try. Frank himself had many errors, that because of your page, are being brought into light. Don't you understand that you're hurting the DUNE legacy (as well as real people with real feelings) by doing what you're doing? It would be one thing if it were justified but you and I both know that it's not.

But WAIT! There's more!
I was just chatting with Schu over there (and he's here now, too) and told him TAZ is such a Chatty Cathy once you get him started.
I replied:
Seriously, though, and sadly: he hasn't made one inch of progress in all this time. He'll be my age and still going on about how great KJA's Dune books were, why doesn't anyone read or talk about them anymore.....?
And that's kinda sad....

Still don't remember what he's talking about. And it's not worth going back through my old DN PMs or MySpace messages to see if he's not just loony.At 7:27 am TAZ wrote:I should have known better than to trust your word.
Changed? What exactly am I supposed to "get"? You attack me, my friends, and it's all for no reason. Don't you have anything better to do? You seem like an intelligent guy... Why are you wasting it on this? If you think that you can write better then go write your own novel. I don't understand what you have to gain from this.
Well, I can agree completely with that last bit: he doesn't understand!Then, at 7:30 am, TAZ wrote:Do you think Frank would appreciate you attacking his son, granddaughter, and other members of his family?
Is this jealousy?...

Brian Herbert is a perfect example of why you shouldn't leave a universe-spanning empire to your next of kin.
