Nov. 18th, 2009 11:50 amOkay, I'm not by any stretch prolific in any fandom, but I think I deserve the right to bitch every once in while since I've been around for almost 10 years. What the fuck is wrong with some people? I mean, please take the few seconds to read the comm rules, or maybe a day or two to lurk around, so that you don't go posting stupid shit on really big comms. The crap people have been posting lately at ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
house_wilson is just...awe inspiring. No one gives a flying fuck what you think about some author's story, and if they did, post it as a comment to that story or in a comm specifically designed for that kind of thing. And don't whine about the fandom and complain that fanfic writers can't write. That one pissed me off. house_wilson is a gigantic comm with thousands of members, and has been around for some time. Regardless of what you think about BNFs or the fandom hierarchy, you don't go posting shit like that in that kind of comm. Little fandoms, small fandoms that probably use any kind of posting it can get...eh, maybe. That still bothers me when people feel the need to post really random crap in comms. That's what journals are for. I mean, there's so many things you could post, like fanfic, fanart, icons, graphics, polls, discussion questions, etc. Whining about fandom and fanfic in general or criticizing an author's work? Not so fucking much. I'm probably the most laid back person when it comes to fandom, because I have a lot of fun in my fandoms and if people are interested, it's all good. But there's a difference between being "a noob" and "being fandom stupid".
