I disagree because I think there are times when the newer, less formal styles can be used in ways that are ultimately more expressive. It's not just a loss of style; it's also a positive development.

[(Anonymous)]

Depends. It wouldn't work in any way in my current fandom.

[(Anonymous)]

how so?

[(Anonymous)]

It's a 19th century literary fandom - the use of language is a huge part of it. In everyday fannish conversation it doesn't matter so much of course, but OP is surely speaking of fanworks.

[(Anonymous)]

I didn't get the sense that OP was specifically talking about fanworks - at all - but I take your point.

[(Anonymous)]

Re-reading it, you may be right, granted. Nevertheless it does tend to affect other forms of communication as well.

OP here

[(Anonymous)]

I am talking about fanworks, specifically fanfiction. Though I suppose it could be annoying if meta isn't written in a legible, coherent fashion. Sorry if that wasn't clear.

Re: OP here

[(Anonymous)]

Ah! No worries, thank you for clarifying - it does make a lot more sense in that case.

[(Anonymous)]

While that's technically possible, I'm struggling to see where there'd be enough real life applications in fanfiction to make such an argument worthwhile.

[(Anonymous)]

Yeah, if you're talking just about fanfiction, I see your point. I took OP as talking more generally about how people talk in fandom.

[(Anonymous)]

There's internet slang and then there's "i culd careless y nd punktation or speling" appalling levels of written communication
