Right on. I ignore them also. Nearly all of the most uninteresting 
fics posted on the list are the pure (non x-over) Ranma fanfics. Let's 
be honest here, why should anyone care all that much who Ramna & Co 
beats the crap out of or sleeps with? If you read one of these Ranma
fanfics that isn't a x-over, you can pretty much say you've read them 
all with the execption of Ranma 2096.

	Excuse me?  I find this statement offensive.  I spent a great deal of
time mulling over a story idea in Ranma that WASN'T just the same thing
over and over again... and quite a few other writers have done the
same.  I don't appreciate having the considerable effort I put into this
so casually dismissed.
	Of course, you wouldn't know about my story, or any of several other
good, original ideas I've seen posted as Ranma stories lately... you
ignored it, with the rest of the Ranma fanfiction.  Odd that you can
justify how interesting something is while ignoring it, ne?  Maybe...
just maybe you missed something worth seeing.

	Generalizations such as this are usually unjustified, and often
insulting.  Please bear this in mind in the future.
