Wow, how about you stop assuming things about people you don't even know? That person HARDLY thinks of themself in high regard, nor do they think the ToA fandom revolves around them. They write because THEY ENJOY IT and merely share it with people. They certainly cannot help it that they are one of the FEW that contributes their writing.
If you don't like it, don't read it. Just as simple as that. But many out there DO enjoy it.

May I add onto that?

'Cause I really love giving my own two cents.

If you can't possibly ignore her: if you don't like the way she portrays Luke, you could critique her stuff so next time she writes him he won't be so OOC. :| People don't get any better if all you do is point fingers and whine about how bad they are from a distance. I don't know the person who wrote the fics 12 is talking about and I'm not in the fandom but I really hate secrets like this. If it annoys you so much why don't you just fucking change it? Be constructive. It goes a hell of a lot father than bitching about somebody. If you hate that nobody portrays the character in the right way, why don't you write the fics yourself?

Also I know some "BNFs" and none of them act the way some wankers say they do. Their fics or fanart might be popular but that doesn't make them automatically arrogant. Get to know the person before you make judgements like that please. You just sound ingorant.

(I assume the person in question is female? I'm really sorry if he's not...)

No problem, anonymous #2! :D

Thank you for the post and I am glad to see an unbiased response from outside the fandom.

The thing is, this person doesn't make any haughty posts or claim they are some BNF...they don't even claim they do the characters well. In fact, they lack confidence. Really, though, people flock to their fanfics and encourage more.

I, too, wish that if people really disagreed with the way a character is done that they would either grow up and present a MATURE critique...or just simply kept their mouth shut instead of whining behind people's backs.

... do I know you? xD
