    Hey I'm only *really* "going after" stories that violate THEIR policies. Technically I am helping them.

    Ok, so you're doing vigilantish kind of work then? In news exp. cops dont take well to RL vigilantes, but hey who knows..

    Still, we dont know who is reporting us, and thats assuming they could be generalized.

    Again.

    We are doing what needs to be done. That site is fucking FILLED with absolute bullshit stories that we all have to wade through.

    We are doing a service to the fandom.

    Yo, you essentially said something along the lines of " If we took entertainment from humans, we'd be doing them a service" or " If we took shitty, cliche'd, romance bullshit away from the majority of the fandom which are teens and pre-teens who like bullshit like that they will thank us for it "....

    Uh, I kind of agree with both Gio and nonjon on this. If you don't like slash, don't read it. And don't report it.

    But, if it violates any policy, like an ass long A/N, I say go for it. If they go into a lot of slashy detail, I say go for it.

    But reporting a story just because it's slash is wrong, and will make them seem to be the victims.

    I'm not just targetting slash.

    I'm targeting Harry/Ginny as well.

    If the story is good and doesn't violate policy then it gets reported.

    I'm only making sure ff.retards follows its own rules.

    This has degenerated into useless bickering.

    If you want to go report happy on shit fics, go for it.

    If you don't want to, and you'd rather just point and laugh at the horrible ones, fine.

    In the future don't waste board space with such useless garbage, just go do whatever choice it is you want to do, b/c for every 10 that want to/don't want to take action and bitch about it, you'll have 10 that feel the oppisite way and will bicker with you about it.
