Well if you use it as an archive it's fine, what I don't get is people posting it there wishing it would be taken seriously.

I think that is unfair. I don't find it fickle at all and in other fandoms i have had many reliable reviewers.
I just wish people wouldn't look down on me for posting there, Lj is scary! It just seems to hold a lot more weight if your post goes ignored in a comm. On ff i can post from a slightly more distant perspective.
I will try posting on Lj though. (:

I'm not looking down on anyone for posting there. There's just been so many examples of writers complaining that they never seem to feel happy about their works when they post at ff.net. 5 years ago, perhaps it was a different story (as I had posted there then and gotten great reviews and constructive crit) but now, if you want your works to be read, appreciated and receive actual criticism to improve your writing, you either post to LJ, Dreamwidth or other websites. Great writers moved on from ff.net, and along with them, they took their readers too (readers who actually aren't afraid to leave crit and aren't too lazy to comment). I'm not saying that all the remainder of people who still read and post there are horrible, but if you're searching for quality fic and quality reviews, ff.net is the last place to look.

But yeah, sadly, writing is generally fickle. Which is why you need to build your writing reputation in a place people actually go to.
