Lols XD It depends, really. I mean, some of the people writing on there are simply HORRIBLE, but you can usually tell that just from the summary. Like, they'll put all sorts of mistakes a shit in the summary and then be like "anyway, please just read!!" at the end of it. That's how you know it's probably not gonna be a good story, at least on there. Sometimes they're good, though. If the summary sucks and it says "please just read it" I usually don't, but if it's got a good summary and it says "please just read it" I usually do...But I also have what I think of as a perfect way to find good writers: If they can write good smut that's interesting without grammatical errors, they're probably a good writer XD It usually works 0_0 I've found...I found you that way, and I found...three writers on FFN that way...and several others on here that way, too XD
Author's Response: I've taken so long to reply to this, that I don't even recall the conversation. *shame face*

Yeah, I'm reading someone right now who's got an awesome OC for Naruto. The OC's supposed to be the main character's kid, and she's really awesome...I think it still depends on the pairing. I mean, if it's a couple without OC's, and you put one in as a pick-up at a bar or something, that's fine. It's when you say "this couple doesn't exist anymore, but I have a new character that came to comfort the other one...." Yeah. THAT doesn't work. But adding a person into an already established couple works, I think XD
For me it depends. If I'm on FanFiction.net, I don't skip it, because they often have awesome stories (or awesome smut XD) even though the person's grammar is terrible. I follow two people who told me point blank that they don't like betas because they have self-esteem issues (the writers, I mean), and who asked me to please stop criticizing the spelling and grammar. However, their stories were wonderfully written apart from that, and I really love their stuff. But if the summary has a mistake, I tend to overlook the story...unless it's a rarely-written pairing. Some anime/manga are REALLY obscure, and it's hard to find a yaoi fic for them at all, so when I find yaoi fics for stuff like that, I pounce on it unless it's m-preg XD
Author's Response: Ugh, splitting up canon pairings just to jam in a self insert. DNW.
I think I've read far, far too much fanfic rants to ever want to go near FF.net.

EXACTLY!!!! *shakes head* I mean, it's one thing to have OC's. It's even not TOO bad to have OC's in NC17 fics (depending on their role). But self-insert stuff is just...*shudder* ugh. I actually read someone once (who was otherwise a very good writer, really) who told me when I commented on his/her grammar that "it enhanced the experience for some of his/her readers." He/she writes Harry Potter fics, which is why I was reading (let's say the person's female) her stuff, but when she wrote that I was just like "Really? You think that? Well, let's see you get anything published..." *shakes head* But some of them are actually TRYING to have correct grammar, which is when it gets really sad XD I understand not being able to write with bad grammar. I'm a TOTAL grammar nazi XD I comment saying "bad grammar" if someone forgot a comma somewhere XD
Author's Response: If one's OCs are written well, more power to the writer and good on them. But even a well written 'OC' that's supposed to be them getting shtupped by someone? Shudder, no, bad.
I skip stories when the grammar is terrible. Especially so if their summary is a typo nightmare.

ROFL XD That end...priceless. Very good attempt at satire (that is meant to be a compliment...just saying) ^-^ At first I was like "Wait...what?" and then I was like "Oh, it's a joke! Thank god XD" and then I was like "Wow, this is such a complete (correct) stereotype, except for the grammar..." And when she got hit by a bus I was like "Ah, THERE'S the joke XD" The end was good, the rest was...Well, it's supposed to be Andreas writing (I don't know if he's any good, but I mean that as "it's not supposed to be you writing"), and the end was...Lols XD I'm just glad I look up things carefully enough that I don't find any of that shit *shiver* Like, the real OC-supposed-to-be-self-insert crap, not this. This was good ^-^ Actual supposed-self-insert ("supposed" because there's no way all the people who write that are as pretty as they say they are - no offense) is so horrible...*shudder* ANYWAY! Well done ^-^
Author's Response: I was going to try for the whole slapdash 'your rules don't apply to me!' grammar, but I just couldn't. It was too painful to go through spelling things wrong and using the incorrect form of your/you're.
Self inserts, especially on NC17 stories, make me back button so so fast. I mean, go on with your bad self if you want to have sex fantasies about someone, I just don't want to read them.

Awwww Gustav *lovedump* I want his happy ending. Hopefully he'll get just that with that offer of maybe dinner :)
Author's Response: Well, Gustav is with an Anna in 'Other Halves'. Maybe it's the same one. (or maybe I'm really bad at coming up with OFC names and recycle them a lot)
