    What do you absolutely hate to see happen in a story? Above all other's I hate when an Author decides that because they changed the main character they should change the rest of the character's also. I hate seeing a 'Good' Snape. Or a 'Brave' Slytherin. Draco Malfoy will never be good. He is one of the lowest forms of life. The only reason he hesitated in killing Dumbledore because he is pathetic.

    Feel free to add.

    I hate it when there's more author's notes than story in the update. Also someone who doesn't know the differences between "your" and "you're", "he's" and "his" and so forth.

    The power of love driving the story (like that is going to stop Tom) and the following pairings Harry/Ginny, Bill/Fleur, and Moony/Tonks.

    This is a way too common topic.

    I think it may fall under the "fanfic cliche rant" purview.

    Here's the fifth iteration of that extremely long topic. We all hate hate things. It's a good place to vent. Just be aware, you're pretty much guaranteed to be repeating a half dozen other people already.

    HP Fanfic cliche rant thread v5.1

    I expect this may be locked and toasted.
