The insanity of it all...

[swatkat]

I'm honestly surprised by the direction this entire M/N essay thing took. I mean, if you post something up on a public forum, how can you expect *everyone* to provide you with nothing but glowing praise? Considering that ship_manifesto is a place to pimp your pairing and get others hooked to it, why should others not take an issue when you say that 'fic in X. fandom is bad, bad, bad', especially when you don't read, or aren't even interesting in reading fic in that fandom? I wish the OP hadn't over-reacted or gotten so defensive about the entire matter - I thought everyone was being very civil and asking pertinet questions. It's a pity that some people can't handle disagreements. *shrug*

Meanwhile, I'm still very much in love with Buffy/Faith, and am looking around for good fics (which is *hard* to find!). Maybe I'll have to contact some shippers after all.

She might have noticed that the most thoughtful and detailed responses (not to mention the longest) were pretty much all calling her credentials into question. The other comments seemed much more glib to me.
