Secondly, as Studio PC notes, perhaps it is time to expand beyond the

dramatic works that deserve their own fandom.  One of the most  
interesting
fanfics I've been reading as of late is one that would, in its  
current form,
never make it to the FFML: Green Destiny 2010, a 21st century  
continuation
fic of Crouching Tiger, Hidden Dragon.  Not only that, but  
Amerimanga as
well: I would love to do a Blade for Barter or Shutterbox fanfic,  
but alas,
not if the current protocol remains in place.

I'm not so sure it would be that bad, actually. Yeah, there's gonna  
be a flood of people with SI's of how they boinked Snape, but when  
they don't get the response they want instead of critique on their  
work, they'll be gone. The ones who don't know better but want to  
learn will stay. Those are the fresh new blood that we want.

On a side note, question for the admins: Is Avatar: The Last  
Airbender fic permitted here? It's an American show, but the style is  
Anime themed and a lot of it draws heavy on Chinese Myth and lore.
