Well to be fair...AYRT didn't give any indication that it was a general statement. They're directly saying "when you write this you're actually saying/doing this and need to do this other thing"

They should make it more clear that they're just saying they don't like it and not "you need to write fanfic THIS way because it's aset rule"

Because that's what they sound like. Or when they say "when people write this it means this"

Maybe they should not phrase their words in a way that sounds like they're deciding what other people mean/intend.

They are still making broad claims and then being all "why are you mad at me and defensive"

Maybe they're just wording it poorly but they sound very forceful.

"As soon as a minor OC does more than provide background color, and starts taking a prominent role then you have left fanfic behind and are just trying to bolt your Original Fic onto a fandom to increase its profile. There is nothing wrong with Original Fic, but if you want to write your own stuff stop using a fandom to boost your profile and hits."

There is nothing here that says "this is what I think" or "I feel" "or generally I tend to think most people..."

They are literally saying "this is what you're doing and you need to stop" Like it's a fucking FACT.

and I'm saying "no I don't do this. Please don't make assumptions"
