Unfortunately, so was your reply. I would not have sent this publicly if
it was not for the fact that I think you need to wake up to yourself, Lurker,
and realise that people don't ask polite questions just so that they can be
insulted by you. And I've tried a private message with you a time before.
Can someone tell me the names of the sailor moon characters and
what
type of scouts they are?
They're Girl Scouts, of course.
At least pretend to be intelligent, alright? This kind of question
does nothing but take up space.
As does your reply. As does mine.
Only a fool derides the search for knowledge, no matter how petty the knowledge
may seem to be.
If you need *that* much info on an anime/manga, you are *not* ready
to write a fanfic even remotely involving the series, and therefore
this question should be directed to rec.arts.anime.fandom,
rec.arts.anime.misc, or alt.fan.sailor-moon. Or for that matter, do
what most sentient people do and check www.anipike.com which has an
extensive section of Sailormoon links.
And what if they were asking out of a desire to _read_ fanfiction? I've
certainly started reading fanfiction from series before I saw the series
it was based on(Evangelion, as one example, and in that case I
rectified the problem as quickly as possible. Just ask Andrew Huang. ^_^ )
Their question was ill-directed spam. Your reply, however, wasn't even that,
even though you did answer their question. If you want to publicly humiliate
people to somehow prove your self-worth, that's fine. Be an ass. Either way,
I certainly won't be calling that phone number of yours because I'm not here
to put up with it, not even when it's not directed at me.
And to answer the question, politely, a good site to go to is Hitoshi Doi's
encylopedia at
http://www.tcp.com/doi/smoon/smoon.html
Another good character description site is at

Every anime female is bisexual. Unless, of course, they're a lesbian.
