I think it's more that people have realized it isn't the early 2000s anymore, fanficrants sucks, and fandom isn't art school; the majority of people who write and post fanfiction aren't serious about writing. They're doing it strictly for fun, and people waltzing in to treat it like an exhibit at the MFA look really fucking silly, and tend to act like entitled douchebags about it.

Nobody owes you good fanfic. Deal with it.

'fun' and 'serious' are not opposites, and imx it is hard to write for fun and not also be invested in it on a serious level at the same time. Come on, if someone did a comic or an indie movie 'just for fun' and then had a pissy party if someone posted some criticism of it, they'd be considered fandom_wank material. There is nothing 'entitled' about most crit. It's just a response, same as a positive one, and it's a damn sight less entitled than 'SEQUEL PLEASE'.

No one owes me good fanfic and no one owes you solely positive feedback either. Deal with it.

Whatever internet you're on, I'd like to go there. All the crit I've ever run across (and before you assume, it wasn't directed at me because I don't produce fanworks at all) is entitled as shit, and really just bitching because the person didn't write the story the reviewer wanted to read. Nearly half of it is thinly-veiled whining about it being the "wrong pairing."

...Uh, that is not crit, dude, that is shipwank. And here I was thinking we were talking about crit.

(Anonymous) 2012-12-25 04:26 am (UTC)(link)
There really isn't any such thing as true crit out there. Or at least I've never seen it. It's all just one big entitled "you didn't write what I wanted to read, so you suck" bitchfest.

Then I must have the best luck in all of fandom to have found an author who not only requests concrit but LOVES when I give them concrit.

(Anonymous) 2012-12-25 05:23 am (UTC)(link)
Unfortunately, some people seem to be under the impression that that is crit. I think if we could actually get people in fandom to realize wtf concrit actually is and not leave comments about how something should have ended a certain way or had a certain pairing and then be like "but I was just giving concrit!", then there wouldn't be nearly so much asshattery about it.

*shrug* If authors don't want to hear people's honest views on their fics they should make a nice comment-free website to post them in.
