Re: I was going to ask this, myself.

[(Anonymous)]

I don't read fic that proclaims its lack of a beta. Is the quality *bound* to be worse? No. But the likelihood of it being worse are, in my experienced, increased without a beta, and increased even more when the person feels the need to mention their lack of beta in tags or notes or whatever. While there's all sorts of reasons for doing so, it feels like at least half the times I tried such fic, "un-beta-ed" meant "I know this is full of errors, but I don't really care."

And with all the great fic out there that has gotten a second set of eyes before publication, I just don't feel like spinning that particular roulette. I only get to maybe 2 or 3 fics a week. I do what I can to increase my chances of finding really good stuff.

But honestly, I don't get why people mention it in the first place. If you didn't use a beta and don't need one, no one will notice or care. If you didn't use one and DO need it, we'll know anyway.
