Secret 8 - Fandom friendship

[transcriptanon]

[Picture is black text over a background with the texture of old, yellowed, slightly wrinkled paper or parchment.]

A few years ago we were really good fandom friends. I respected your opinion, enjoyed the discussions we had, and thought your posts about other people's fics were really insightful and/or good constructive feedback.

Then you decided to take a huge step back from fandom to concentrate on your original work and personal life and, despite our best intentions, we no longer speak...

Having this distance from you has made me realize that you're a jerk. You weren't being constructive or witty, you were being vile and rude. You seemed to think your personal taste in fics was some kind of gold standard that all authors should try to achieve and all readers should emulate. It actually got to the point that you made me feel ashamed for having the kinks I have and I would agree with you just so you wouldn't talk down to me and take me seriously.

I don't know why I didn't see this about you before and I'm embarrassed that I ever followed your lead. I wish I could take it all back and tell you to Shut The Fuck Up and Get The Fuck Out.
