Hi there. I’m a friend of vamptastica, the author you hurt by trashing her fic at badbuffyfic recently. I am simply at a loss to understand why anyone would spend precious time making fun of someone else’s efforts. People who write fanfic on LJ are not professional writers. So often they are fans who love the characters and want to express themselves and fulfill their dream of writing. If their work is not up to your standards, why can’t you simply choose not to read it? To make fun of them in this way only ensures that they will not have the confidence to keep writing and trying to improve. How could you participate in trashing someone else’s dream? If you are an author, this is simply unfathomable. If you are a reader, it’s still just plain mean and so unnecessary.

What I Like About Being a Nine: Being nonjudgmental and accepting. Caring for and being concerned about others.
What a crock! You make the entire fandom a worse place. You should be ashamed of yourself.
I'm not carlyinrome, as is evident by my handle; perhaps you might want to post that on badbuffyfic where it belongs, rather than on my personal journal?
I don't understand what your point is in posting your comment here, "hon." If you're not a member, then why don't you become one so that you can comment appropriately?
