I actually can't believe this shit.

Do you see THIS fic? Seem familiar to some of you? Yeah? Well, that's because it's MINE. Yes, THAT ONE.

Honestly, I'm so turned off from fanfiction right now, it's ridiculous. The only fandom that's not giving me any grief at this point is Gilmore Girls because at least people of that fandom are SANE. I never have ( Read more... )

"Honestly, I'm so turned off by fanfiction right now, it's ridiculous. The only fandom not giving me any grief at this point is Gilmore Girls because at least people of that fandom are SANE. I never have to ut up with this shit."

I totally agree with the above remark. It's bad enough that FF.net is having quality control issues, but now "writers" have the nerve to steal other people's stories...(Shakes head) It's atrocious. Don't they realize that taking credit for other author's work only makes a situation worse? Apparently not. (Sighs) I'm so sorry you had to deal with this. Posting work online can have unpleasant effects, as well as great ones.

On a side note, I am so fed up with the quality of RuroKen fanfiction right now, along with other fandoms: Ninety-nine percent of them are either AUs or OOCs. Not that they aren't bad, but I do wish authors would write some sensible cannon that isn't pure fluff, crack, and idiocy. I don't mean to offend you with this comment, and if I did, I apologize sincerely. I'm simply ranting, as I always do when someone brings up the sensitive subject of fanfiction. (Sighs)

I don't read RuroKen fics anymore - I just write for the fandom and sometimes read an occasional oneshot on the RK_Challenge community, but otherwise...I'm totally with you. I'm guilty of writing mostly AUs, but they don't have to be so awful when done right.
