(Anonymous) 2011-10-13 01:59 am (UTC)(link)a) Don't visit his website, where he writes more about his opinions.
b) The author erases his author's notes every time he uploads a new chapter so many people don't get to see his real attitude.
c) Most readers only praise him and don't give him detailed criticism, so if you check the reviews section, you won't find many negative reviews, giving the fic a better reputation. You'd have to visit many different website to see a more varied opinion of him.
d) he accepts anonymous reviews, which allows people to review more than once per chapter, and also tends to attract lazier reviewers in general, so many of his reviews consist of short "update more plz" and "this is so cool, plz". If it was just constructive reviews, his review count would drop significantly.
2. The fic actually isn't that bad; he writes certain things very well, like the crazy schemes Harry comes up with, battle and action scenes, and he writes the friendship Harry has with Voldemort, Draco and Hermione in different ways than you usually see in fiction. He also has a flair for the epic and over the top, and that is well-liked in fandom.
3. His update schedule was initially faster, gaining a quicker following.
4. The folks at TV Tropes, a huge website and a significant hype machine, like his fic a lot for his interesting use and manipulation of the expected tropes in fanfiction; he is good at keeping you guessing where he is going, which is something the user at TV Tropes like.
