It's been a while due to plain and simple lackage of Internet, but. 'Sup, OP here.

I'm not interested in a fight either; that wasn't my intention in making the secret, nor was it to generate wank (okay, nvm, that was a lie). On the other hand, it was pretty much a last-ditch, lazy-peasy effort to get some criticism and feedback together on that whale of a fic of yours in one fell swoop, because I'd actually been meaning to give it a thorough, thoughtful read and give some constructive criticism worth a damn, but the chapters just kept coming and coming, and I have better uses and shorter badfic for my time.

I have to disagree with those who're cooing about you finding this secret being an awful tragedy of some sort; it's a wake-up call. Heed it. You say 'oh, I know it's OOC, it was an RP log we did for fun and decided to post'. That was your decision (and by this I mean the both of you--the screenshot in question included just you and not your partner merely to underline the point that whether it's both of you or one of you, I no longer have any interest in checking out your fic. I don't know you enough to care one way or another about you on a personal level, so the 'hate'? Is all in your mind and one phrase of chatspeak, if you want to try taking that seriously). If you're going to post badfic knowing it's bad, take the consequences like a lady: which means not acting all shocked and amazed that SOMEBODY SOMEWHERE disliked it/flamed it/made fun of it. It's the Internets, sorry.

In regards to posting anonymously, I have no problem with putting my name on wank; however, I have no interest in people going around name-calling and accusing me of dragging all my friends out to criticize someone's fic purely in the spirit of meanness. If I'm anon, those who agree with me are doing so objectively, and not because 'I'm me' or some bullshit like that.

I actually wasn't going to bother with Liquid Fire anymore, past avoiding it whenever it or its various reincarnations popped up, but then one or the other of you started posting more KH fic with a different partner--and then one or the other of you posted a Bakura/Ryou fanfic called 'Broken Kitten' in one (or more) of the YGO comms I had friended, and I figured it was time to do something or other, because (with a title like that setting off alarm bells of wangst and OOC; and believe me, I would know, I started out as a pathetic badficcing slash fangirl in the Bakura/Ryou corner) it was getting simply ridiculous and irritating at that point.

I have no interest in reading Synergy or Broken Kitten; I sat through 20-or-so chapters of Liquid Fire on almost pure trainwreck syndrome before I gave up, and if you're going to post a gazillion miles of badfic, no matter whether it was 'totally serious' or not, it's not going to help me want to read your other fic.
