why do I always miss these things?

So apparently there was (is?) some sort of kink meme kerfuffle going on in SGA fandom? I until today I didn't even know that SGA had any kink meme, and now there are two? Could someone link me to posts explaining what was going on?

It's just one kink meme, set up to alternate posting rounds between LJ and DW.

As I understand what went on, the mods may screen a prompt that isn't an actual kink under the meme's rules or screen and ask for it to be rephrased. There was a prompt in the first round with the kink 'chubby chaser'. The mods missed it, no one complained, but later when they were tagging, it got noticed.

One mod very much objected to it, others disliked but didn't feel like doing anything about it. It got screened with an explanation (while, yes, it is a kink, a re-phrasing would be appreciated since 'chubby chaser' has insulting connotations toward the kink itself and a kink meme is supposed to be kink friendly). At which point the anon trolls dogpiled the mod, who was overworked and less than thrilled at the treatment and decided to resign and let the others make whatever decision they chose on the matter.

Since then, of course, someone wrote a fill for the prompt and now there's a chubby chaser tag. (And I'm annoyed as hell.)

Kink memster asks for John is chubby-chaser. Fannish Crusader Mod decides this is anti-fat-acceptance. On a *kink* meme. Saner heads prevail.
