Jul. 27th, 2004 05:15 pmI have this love-hate relationship with fanfiction.net. I read stuff there a lot, yet I have this deep abiding dislike of their policeys.
Like just now how they chucked all the WL? fics, except one *snort*, in the Drew Carey Show folder. Now, considering I don't even particualry like WL? fic, and WL? fic had been band for a least a year, I'm still fustrated.
Maybe it's just that they took down everything that would slightly offend people:
Tabliods are angry that we're completing with them by making stuff up about people and admiting the fact? *Poof!* Ann Rice is completly parinoid? *Boom!* People consider prose to be the only way to tell a story? *Zot!* And so on.
And they really didn't help thier case with my by posting this: We encourage everyone to assist in the care of this community by reporting entries when warranted. Those that have no respect for our policies cannot escape the watchful eyes of their peers.
So in other words, someone called in the raid.
But the really agrevating point is that it's still the largest, and possibley the best place to find stories.

I'm getting a kick out of the fact that we could *technically* hide WL? fics in the British Comedy section. Hmm... I may do that. I've also been thinking of ratting out some other rule breaking things. Not NC-17's though, 'cause I love those.
You know, I just got an idea that would probably get me banned forever. A 1984/fanfiction.net fic. Like, a parody based on the evils they commit. Hmmm... Xing is watching!
