Antidaeophobia

I was on fanfiction.net, but I turned off anon comments for the very reason people started flame wars in my reviews. I'm also very specific about where I load my art. I tend to find fellow artists give nicer comments just because they understand the struggle. I try not to say anything online that I wouldn't accept being said to me. I try not to be an asshole- even though I know I am one. LOL

@Q: You have no idea. Several years ago, cliques of flamers and ass-kissers stalked the website, flaming anyone, especially young authors who wrote "Mary Sue" fancharacters. Then it got spread to bashing just about any "badfic" author."

And it ain't just kids who did this. Some were old enough to be parents of teens.

@Qiviut: omg, I know what you mean, and yeah, it's really sad the amount of flamers that are adults and really don't give a shit that they are talking to someone the same age as their kid, and telling that kid they suck so bad they should kill themselves. Believe it or not, I actually saw a lot of that behavior on the Star Trek site I was on, and any person under 40yrs old was always treated with hostility. Thank goodness bronies tend to be fairly inclusive with new people.
