Oh man. The fandom was such a trainwreck. The het vs yaoi wars were so OTT, especially 1x2 vs 1xR. The most popular fics were definitely being written by people who'd never watched the show. Character bashing was so prevalent (mostly Relena, but sometimes Quatre and Duo too!). It was just to vile.

It was so much fun.

Eh, probably here on DW. I was thinking of just hosting it on my journal and advertising.

I'm glad I missed out on the ship wars and character bashing. Especially since my favorite character is one of the most bashed in the fandom, from what little I saw.

What I'm sad I missed out was all those websites that hosted fic. Might have missed out on some great fic for my ships.. And to be able to have people to discuss my ships with, especially on the pairing comms on lj.

Oh, if I get my comp back in time and getting around to making a DW account, I will so be there. :)

Oh yes, for all its faults, GW had a huge, prolific community. The GW yahoo comm got over 1000 messages daily. There were multiple pairing communities and so many fanfic archives. It was so awesome. It was my first real fandom and I adored it so much. ;3;

Woo! \o/!

It really was huge and active. A shame a lot of those archives are lost now. God, I wish I had a time machine so I could experience it.

Make sure you get a hold of a torrent for the remastered version. It looks so good.

The best archives were from anipike. D: SO. MANY. CHARACTER SHRINES. And fic sites, and art sites and JUST GAH.

So much of it was lost to time and the geocities/etc thing.....:C
