Whups, the author disagrees with you, and has different opinions on their intellectual property. That is pretty stupid of them!

[(Anonymous)]

But...it is stupid.

Fanfiction: Don't like? Don't read. Pretty simple concept. If an author has problems with what people might be doing to their fictional made-up characters...just don't read the fic.

They shouldn't be doing that anyways.

(Btw, are you like paid to be The Author's White Knight or something? I swear, it's like you think it's ALL UP TO YOU TO DEFEND THEIR HONOR, while they cry into a bucket of money.)

[truxillogical]

I just think there's a matter of respecting someone who created something you like enough to make fanfic. And I'm just a little appalled by the attitude of a lot of fans in that regard. You don't have to obey them, but just a little bit of respect.

[(Anonymous)]

For me, personally, I just can't respect someone who holds a view that is so utterly nonsensical to me. Fanfiction harms no one. It doesn't steal away anyone's copyright in the night. If an author doesn't like fanfiction there's absolutely no reason that they would ever even see it anyways. So when they rail against it like it ate their firstborn child, I just can't take them seriously anymore.

Basically, I can't personally respect views that I don't consider worthy of respect. I might respect a writer for their writing capabilities, but that respect doesn't automatically extend to their views just because they wrote something I enjoyed.

[tei]

I don't think disregarding their preferences with regards to something they are perfectly free to ignore constitutes disrespect. Respecting an author means, principally, buying their books. Anything beyond that is not really relevant.

[truxillogical]

And like I said, I'm not even saying "don't write the fanfic." It's purely the attitude of "The author should be grateful and they're stupid if they don't like this" that gets on my nerves.
