You have a pretty good point there :) I also used to R and R everything, and then I stopped (partly because I'm rubbish, but also partly because there is an awful lot of Stuff).

I still think TGS is about the nicest fandom I've ever been in *g* But maybe I'm biased...

*huggles you*
*wonders what cliques she's in now, what with huggling the mod and stuff. Wants an 'I'm in the elite badge,' please*

The groups-round-fic-you-like starts to look more like a clique (though it isn't necessarily) when you start talking about style of fic. So if A is a fan of metaphor-laden moodpiece fic, they're not likely to read/comment on/friend those members of the comm who like graphic bdsm or carsex or cracky AUs.

That's all well and good (because B who likes carsex, may not like "pretentious" fic) but the problem comes because some people associate 'metaphor moodpiece' with 'good' and carsex as somehow 'lesser' (you see this both from those reading/writing moody stuff and in a sort of chippy defensiveness from those reading/writing the cracky stuff) so it stops being 'we're in this group because we like to read J/J' and is perceived as 'we're in this group because we're all so sooper smart and better than you.'

Which is utter shit. Just to take one example, Riona and Draco write pretty much crack all the time, and I love their stuff, even though I'd naturally gravitate more to the angsty/metaphor side of things. But I would defend their position as 'good' writers to the death.

I suspect I may be part of the 'crackfic clique', and I don't think darker, more serious, or more plausible stuff is inferior or pretentious. I just really like writing barking mad ideas and reading stuff that makes me laugh at the strangeness. So I gravitate to what appeals. On occasion, I like stuff that's more plausible and serious. Sometimes, I like plausible and funny. I just tend to read and write stuff that appeals to me at the time and generally prefer the crack.

*passes an olive branch from crackfic fans to angsty moodpiece fans, to smooth over any possible misunderstandings*
