Nihao!

 From the responses I�ve received on the Guide�s challenge, I have to
assume that I was misunderstood. Not hard considering I have had 4 hr.
of sleep for the past four days. So let me try this again.

 I am NOT saying that anyone is posting stories full of clich�. What I
am saying is lets make fun of them. A parody if you will. A resent spam
fic had a bored Akane getting kidnapped yet again. That�s the kind of
things I�m talking about. If you hate self insertions fics, make fun of
them. New character can be bashed.

    Excuse me, what is the point of making fun of someone for the TYPE of
story they write? Last I knew this mailing list was for discussion of
stories, not for hurtimg people. If you don't like that type of story,
fine, you're entitled to that. What isn't right is to potentially hurt
someone because of that.

    It's true that many self insert fics aren't very good, but they TRY.
Many try very hard to write a good story, and either fail because that
can't write well, or more likely, they have litile experience writing as
yet.

    If by some chance you meant something other that what I've taken it to
mean I'm sorry for this message, it's inexcusable if so. If NOT, then I
can't see you as anything other than shallow.
