I don't really have a general opinion about the importance of betas because I think that some people manage without them and some people really benefit from them. Personally, I find it helpful to have someone look over my fic before I post it. After a while, it becomes hard for me to see flaws in my own writing because I know how it's supposed to be in my head so it helps to have someone point out things that I've missed or to help me get unstuck in a certain area. I feel the same way about essays for class. A fresh set of eyes always helps me out. I've been a beta to some close fandom friends before and it was a pretty good experience because we felt comfortable enough with each other to give constructive criticism and we were also comfortable enough with each other to not be offended

OP

Yeah, I get that. I tend to use betas to make sure my characterization is well done (something I find harder to do when I feel "too close" to a character). It's definitely helpful to have a second pair of eyes.
