It seems I really made a mistake in bringing up the topics I did..

It would have come up eventually.  Not your fault.

frusterated, Aaron is fighting with Jack, and one of the most
volitile fanfic subjects has burst into flames.

See above, Firehawke.

Firehawke shakes his head and sighs. "Why do I get the feeling
that some hot chocolate won'tsolve this one?"

It might...you never do know.

It appears I owe everyone an apology. Sadly, an apology won't
heal the damage I've done.

*Grrrrrr* You may have started the thread, but the fact remains that
you didn't continue it; Jack, Aaron, and others did.

Also, because of the flak given to OtakuFics, I won't be continuing
with "Unlimited Moment" (Formerly called Project FHX). I'd gotten
it down to a bare minimum power level, but it seems enough
people hate the entire genre that it'd be useless to post or
continue it. I'll post the prologue later tonight so you can see
what I'd had in the works.

Faugh. You *must* be kidding.  Please....look at Undocumented Features,
Bubblegum Zone, Twisted Path...all *very* popular 'fics.  Super-powered 
(past Twister's point) or badly-written 'fics are not liked, sure...
but I'd challenge someone to prove that UF isn't/wasn't popular.

C'mon, Firehawke...don't let people stop you.  There are a fair number
of people on this list that don't like Ranma 'fics; it doesn't stop
those of us who like them from writing it. For that matter..there's a
whole *horde* of people out there that would as soon spit on a 'fic
writer as read their work.  Don't let them stop you, don't let 'flak'
stop you. 

Oh...and Misa-chan... I'm sorry 'bout that whole Aaron/Jack deal that
I participated in; but he was attacking a friend in a way I didn't 
like.

I'll go back into lurking now, since keeping my mouth shut is a
good idea.
