Apparently there was going to be a book published around 2014 focusing on fan vitriol of the programme throughout the calendar year of the 50th anniversary in 2013. For one reason or another, the book fell through.
The manuscript recently surfaced online via a Torrent site of which I'm a member of, so I snatched it up pretty quickly. I'm reading it and it's quite fun. It touches on almost every 'tribal' corner of community, from Gallifrey Base, to The Anorak Zone, to Digitalspy, to Roobarb's forum, and, yes, The Hive. Iank in particular gets a good deal of coverage in this. He'd have been a star overnight!
Most interesting is that the book also includes the notorious 'Whistleblower' essays in full detailing Moffat's alleged conduct during production of series 7 and the 50th, before admitting it was all a prank

RobFilth's in there too, once or thrice.
No debates with Rani though. Criminal.

RobFilth's in there too, once or thrice. I'd be disappointed if I wasn't. They probably thought Rani's arguments too ludicrous to detail, they saved his web presence for their later book on clowns.
