We want to thank everyone who reported this troll review we featured in The Proof Is in the Pudding:
is now gone:
Good job, everyone!

We’ve just recently been alerted to a new bully attack led by a GR member named . Of course, she has a myriad of other names, seven in all:
From what we’ve heard, Autumn generally only writes critical reviews, which isn’t bullying in our opinion, but rallying your friends (who happen to be part of the GR bully and GR exile crowd) and launching an attack on another reviewer and an author (who defends the reviewer) is bullying. We’d tell you the story, but the author who was the victim of the attack, already has. So, we’ll let the screenshots from the do the talking:
And Autumn’s response:
And here is a reply to Autumn that in our opinion is the best reply to a bully in the whole history of online bullying. You may want to keep a screenshot of this because we believe this generally applies to all trolls:

An addendum
Well, in typical bully fashion, Autumn is celebrating the fact that she is a bully.
This reminds us forcefully of several other bullies who boast of terrorizing other people online. So for future reference, we recommend that all authors steer clear of Autumn and her ilk. Whenever you see names like Misanthropic Reader or Holy Terror or Tina Bringer of Badass, that’s a good sign you want to turn the other direction and not look back.
