he TGS community is for memebrs only :/ so you won't be able to read it

Nooooooo! That guide seems so funny, I want to read it ;_;
Please convince the author to post it somewhere else (maybe her own LJ, in a public entry?)!

I'm conflicted about Mary sues. I usually loathe OC MSs, but, er, I kind of love many canon MSs ^^" *coughAeriscough*

It doesn't bash the canon!Sues but only those numerous Snape's daughters/wifes, Harry one tru wuf's, Legolas' sisters/girlfriends etc. It's pure crack to their crap.

Btw, if you like hilarious reviews, I recommend this site:

http://ficbitches.livejournal.com/

It has some of the funniest reviews ever. If you have even the slightest familiarity with The King of Fighters (but even if you don't), I highly recommend these two reviews:

http://ficbitches.livejournal.com/968.html
http://ficbitches.livejournal.com/7170.html

They made me laugh so hard XDDD

Bwa-ha-ha-ha! This made me laugh out loud! XD Ah, those ficbitches...

There is nothing more annoying than grown up men being reduced to snivelling girls. In about 50% of Star Trek: Enterprise fics the guy who is the armory officer, is portrayed as a emo!13 years old girl. It makes the baby canon cry...

Tch, frankly I dislike sites/journals that exist soley to mock the creative work of other people, especially fledgling writers.

*Sucks the fun out of the room*

Of course if I could spell 'solely' maybe my complaints would seem a little more legitimate.

I can agree with you to some extent, I'm not bothered with ANY fics if the author stated in the a/n that said fic is 'slash/mpreg/mary sue/oc' etc. Complaining about something I've been warned about is SILLY. This authors, however, are repeat offenders, those who blackmail you for feedback (if you don't feedback, I won't write any more!), murder grammar and spelling and telling them to 'get a beta' is no use, and, of course, insert the most horrific Suethors and claim that they ARE NOT Mary Sues.

Usually, I'd agree with you. In fact, when I don't like a fict, 99,8% of times I hit the back key and that is that. I'm a fan of the "don't like, don't read" saying, and I understand that many authors write for fun and it would be unfair to spoil it.

But then there is that 0,2% of times, when the fict is so horribly, inhumanly wrong, when it actually causes you physical pain and makes you want to scream, when it can only be defines as "mauling of the characters". Those rare times, I actually like merciless reviews that rip the fict apart, because just like nobody forced me to read it (although, if there had been a fair "this fict sucks" warning, I wouldn't have read it with the misled hope that it might be decent), nobody forced the author to publish it on the Internet.

I sound could and cynic, and I'm honestly sorry about that. But, I think that "K' and I" and "Pain" deserve the bitchslap (unless the authors are 12 or something, but I doubt it).

I can't believe you didn't know about deleterius! I would have told you! It's pretty much the same amount of awesome as s_d!

Also, you should go to babb-chronicles for more of poking fun at badfic. Or just taking badfic quotes out of context. Because as you and I both know very well, context is for the weak!

And that guide to reviewing? Absolutely hilarious. Thank you.

luv n' skittles,
