Notes/Babbling: Oh, look. New series. That I've only scratched the surface of. I cry now. And eight million other series that show I have no attention span. I decided to forgo breaking them up because it would have meant three seperate posts and I just want to get this done. Because. You know. I have to go edit 250+ pages to reflect my new ( Read more... )

Eye of the Beholder? AT LEAST someone gave that fic the credit it deserved. Thank you, dear. ^___^ 16 or so reviews? What the hell? TT_TT

I will never understand why some fics get a ton of reviews and others don't. The only thing I can think of is that people flock to those authors who give them their regular fix. Though, sometimes the good authors get the reviews they merit, I am still frequently baffled. I don't mean to sound bitter, more like... I scratch my head in confusion and wonder at fandoms sometimes. (....this means I have to read her Naruto fic now, too, doesn't it? ^_~)

(Kidding, kidding! I'm actually in the process of reading it, I'm just a slow reader when it comes to longer stuff, no on kill me! XD)

I have seen terrible (and I mean that literally) fics (No plot, Mary Sues, ultra short chapters, awful grammar/spelling, Plot What Plot?, and so on...) get over 2000 reviews (Okay, that was in the HP fandom, but still!) while some fics, far better ones I might add, got 20 or 30 reviews. Weird, isn't it?

Read it! It's my favourite KakaIru fic ever and I hate mpreg - that does say stg about Risu-chan's writing skills, now, doesn't it? ^___________^

I really do think there's something to the idea that people flock to fics that they know will give them their fix and will get the characters together that they want together. This isn't sour grapes because, hey, if people are entertained by that, they're entertained by that, it's not really that much sillier than being entertained by any anime fanfic. Plus, there is something to be said for pandering and a lot of authors pander--give me a certain number of votes and I'll continue or they cajole more and more people into reviewing.

I admit... the mpreg kind of makes me hesitate because... mpreg! ._______. But I keep hearing good things, so.... >__>
