Depending on how the exchange is run, you might be full of shit. Many exchanges are set up with the understanding that you might not get prompts and if you can't deal with that you should not sign up or not offer that fandom/pairing.

Maybe a digression but I'd consider that a poorly run exchange, and I've modded a few back in the day. Like... why would you want to make it harder for the person who gets your prompts to write you a nice fic? What kind of mod would want it to be harder for the participants to do a good job and get a nice fic? IDGI.

The only thing that would make it poorly run is if the mod isn't clear enough on that being the policy. Most exchanges I'm familiar with have optional details these days and they don't have problems getting participants who might prefer getting prompts (and not giving prompts is still not the norm) but understand they're not entitled to them. Not everyone signs up with strong preferences of what to receive and that's fine.

I personally have no problem with barring the uninspired from signing up!

NAYRT but to me it has nothing to do with being 'uninspired' as a writer. I could come up with dozens of ideas and plots etc even if only given a pairing (provided it's a pairing I know, but most exchanges tend to be fandom specific).

To me it has everything to do with me writing something that the person won't LIKE because they haven't bothered to ask for anything beyond 'a/b please'.

Okay so I'ma write you some a/b amputee fetish scat porn and then you get upset because all of that is totally not your thing. Well... sucks to be you.
