right, maybe. respect? hardly. I've known many an author to go on deleting sprees in fits of pique, depressive episodes, etc, and then later regret it but reposting is far more difficult than deleting.

authors are not sacred idols whose every whim must be considered more important than the whims or desires of their readers. it's a two-way street and authors can be stupid assholes every bit as much as the readers can. and I say this as a fic author, too. I may hate the ever-loving crap out of this 20 year old Star Wars fic of mine, but people love it and while I question their tastes, I'd rather leave it there for them to enjoy than delete it because I think I'm so above myself.

I would claim it is respect enough to think it is our stuff and we can decide to share it or not.

I never said we were important. We sure as hell ain't. Only a few seem to think they can re-write their fanfic and become 'authors' off it ect.

But I think even in the age of the internet people would hope that if they deleted something it could stay deleted even if that is futile. Fandom tends to be respectful, more so than other parts of the web at least. Or so I had hoped.

You don't speak for all fic authors and you should like an entitled little shit.

[ayebydan]

If you are talking about me I never claimed I did. I am a crap author in my own corner of crapness. I just don't feel weird if folk down my stuff.

But, easy to call names under anon. Bad thing about this comm

This. I look back on my old fic and cringe, but you know what, it still gets positive comments every so often so why would I want to take it down when people are obviously still enjoying it?
