New Community

[livejournal.com profile] badficsupport is a multi-fandom effort to reserve a place in lj land for those poor souls who have been traumatized by badfic. If you've ever been driven to vase-throwing, screaming or weeping by a stinking rag of mind-numbing dreck, masquerading as fan fiction, this is the community for you. Shred. Whine. Explain just how those evil badfic writers went wrong. Membership is closed, so you'll have to contact me or [livejournal.com profile] cedar85 about joining.

Join now and get a free fridge magnet! [/lying through teeth]

You know, a bad fic support sounds like an undergarment that hides unsightly badfic from public view...and arg I hate the mental image I have x_x

[identity profile] schmevil.livejournal.com 2003-05-09 06:29 pm (UTC)(link)
That's... definitely not what I was going for when I named the community. O.o And thank you, ever so much, for giving me that lovely mental image.

Are naming and wimpy, behind-the-back flaming allowed?

Naming would get us TOSed. We'll discuss this further later. *cough*

What's the policy on popular but mind-numbingly mediocre fic? Or is this strictly "So bad you want to stab your eyeballs out" fic accepted?

Re:

[identity profile] schmevil.livejournal.com 2003-05-09 08:18 pm (UTC)(link)
Mediocre is bad, in my books. Shred, shred, shred.

What scares me is that "badficsupport" sounds like support for badfic, i.e. all those fangirlies writing "reviews" consisting of, "OMG! That was awesum! Write more now please!" for misbegotten ungrammatical misspelled out-of-character plotless wet dreams belonging to twelve-year-olds.

Well, ahem. If you've been reading the Vampire Revue, you know just how much badfic I've been reading lately. Shred, shred, shred.

[identity profile] schmevil.livejournal.com 2003-05-09 09:31 pm (UTC)(link)
But see that's part of the fun. They come expecting support and recieve biting criticism.

I have been reading the Vampirea Revue. *wince* I am in awe.

Am wondering why read badfic at all? I avoid it, personally, and stick to fic that people I trust rec me. What's the appeal of reading badfic in the first place? Am curious.

Re:

[identity profile] schmevil.livejournal.com 2003-05-10 02:45 pm (UTC)(link)
We all have our reasons. Personally, there's something fun about reading something so utterly terrible and pointing out the mechanical/technical errors. Then there are the badfics that are so bad they're good - like an Ed Wood film.

Get a bunch of people together, all talking about the same badfic and it's really quite amusing.

(And sometimes you just want to be a catty bitch and badfic provides an easy target. ~_^)
