I've read my fair share of Fanfiction for the past two years or so, some good, some bad, some wondeful, and some absoulutley horrible. After forcing myself to read poorly-written fanfiction just for the heck of it, I was wondering: What annoys you most when it comes to fanfiction? Spelling and grammar? Proper spacing? Proper characteraization? Though my list streches a little too far, some of the things I just can't stand when it comes to to FF are: -OC's. Mary-Sues included. Bleh. -Improper spelling / grammar / Improper spacing -Cruddy work getting praised -Characters not in character. AU is an exception. And it goes on. |

-Obviously, sloppily made characters. -1337-speak, Wapanase, writer didn't even try using spellchecker. -Canons being OOC. AU is not en exception -Songfics -Hatefics -Writer did not do the research -OC fics (=fics entirely about OCs in the universe. Dude. Build your own world already.) -Implausible romance. Romance without plot. -Characters being warped gay/lesbian just for the hell of it. -Too much WAAANGST -AUs set in high school. Will add moar maybe D: |

OH YEZ! Script fics! Ew. To think of what a big deal it was when FF.net banned those (and songfics)! |

I can't even think of any logical arguement that would support keeping those on FF.net. D: Scripts are boring to read, personally. |

Elementary, my dear Stranger. Japanese in English fanfiction. 'Jenna-chan', 'Isaac-sama'. The sort of crap you'd get from fangirls. Not only can they not speak it, but they also make the language a laughing stock. |

I'll only hate the fanfic if it is poorly written. OC fics are alright with me. But I really do hate bad grammar. I was reading some Sonic fanfic that made NO sense whatsoever. The only reason I got it was because the summary was "Sonic kills BAD GUYS" or something late that. It was really weird. Also OOC -- Sonic almost killing Shadow and then walking away. Unless is some "good turns evil" fic. I like Sonic too much... |
