Ok, maybe writing things like: "u suck, get a life lolz!!111one" are bad, but I hate people who talk lie that anyway. When I play Halo if someone talks like that I hunt them down and put a bullet in them, then type a perfectly spoken: "You sir, are an unspeakably foul vagabond, butchering my laguage. I suggest you go home and rething your life, perhaps getting off of online games and to a library... Good day." My new outlook on flaming is if it's bad enough to flame, I wont do it with words. I'll go their house with a grenade and pistol and flame a whole lot more... LOL! Very nice. I do wonder sometimes why people post some of the crap they write. It's like "How can you think that was good?!" I've also read stuff that's bad on purpose and it's crazy that people would sit down and do that. Then there're stories so disturbing you find yourself wondering if maybe, just maybe, the author should seek help. Godawful Fanfiction.net is a haven of links to fics like that.

The use of words expressing more than that of their literal intention! Now that. Is. Irony.

Did you read that slasher fic in the Kingdom Hearts fandom a while back?
Basically Sor goes nuts, rapes his mom and dad then has it with the Papua tree.
Then he kills Kairi, screws the corpse and kills himself.
I think the author of that is beyond help. In fact, I've probably already killed him on Halo for going:
"LOLZ!!!111 n00b! wut btton iz shoot?"

Hehehe, you think ff.net is bad check out ficwad. The thing is, most of the stories are amazingly well written, they're just very very strange.

So true. Nowadays you have to scuba-dive through piles of crap to find that rare pearl... -sigh- The fact that there's so much crap makes readers wary of most other fics, which makes it that much harder for the good fics to get reviews. At least, that's what it sometimes seems like to me.

At least, that's what it sometimes seems like to me. I have actually abandoned fandoms due to my inability to find something worth reading. It's a sad thing indeed. I think the KH fandom is one of the most abused, which makes me sad because I love it so. And oh my gosh, piratesrox that story is soooooo creepy Although, the story that involves Cloud being raped by a Marlboro (the big green tentacle thing) that was all the rage over at godawful a couple years back may just beat it *shudders*

I agree. There is WAY too much crud in the KH section. Because of this, I don't go on there as much as I used to, but I admit I'm writing one KH fanfic. I hate that there are some many Mary Sues in that fandom. Because of Mary Sues, I prefer writing a fanfic with my OCs a LOT more than reading others. It's sad but true. I admit that my fanfic isn't the best, but it's better than some crud I read anyway.

But my real reason for responding to your post is curiosity... what is crub Oh good, I see you've fixed it. Yes, the KH fandom is overloaded with crud. ^_^

My KH fanfic is the only time I added a major OC. I really created it for my favorite character, Axel, because I was upset when he died, but the adventure might of been boring if he didn't have anyone with him. Some other canon character will meet up with him later, but it could be a little while.
I have a bad habit of using my personal OC. Almost all of them come from a anime show I thought of (for newcomers who don't understand what I said, I want to be a anime animator). Creating a OC story, epecially in a fandom where Sues are common can be really scary. It's easy to get flamed even if your OC ISN'T a sue. Yes, I have witnesses this sort of thing.

Sigh... I hate when authors get all defencive when you comment on their fics. I told the (probably) girl that I liked her story, but that she had too little emotions and mixed past and present tense. She replied with something like "it's my story so I decide how they feel. And I made some mistakes, but you should be happy, because it could be worse. I do what I want. p**s off."

Wait, you mean you reviewed the story I gave the link to (or is it another story you're talking of and I'm just making a fool of myself)?Either way, I was actually reluctant to review that fic for two reasons: a) I was afraid my review'd get out of hand in terms of concrit and become really overwhelming, and b) I was afraid the above might happen. Well, not really afraid, but you get what I mean. It's almost painful when 'authors' get all defensive about their horrible Mary Sue stories.

It's probably because the Mary Sue is essentially the author (only with super powers of some description) and they perceive any dislike of the story to be dislike of them.

No, I don't dare rewiev that one, I fear that if I would, I would write all insults and curses known to man and make some up in the process.
It was acctually a KH2-story.
