need? In fact, this list was originally supposed to be for fine tuning
drafts before they went to the RAAC, right? Why can't we do the same with
fanfic.net? "Don't trust the reviewer who typed 'wat a goooood fic'?
Submit it to the FFML for some quality commentary." Sure, those who don't
care about how to improve their writing won't want to join - but those
aren't the sort of people we'd necessarily want, anyway.

I gave up on RAAC quite a few years ago. It was unforgiving and quite
a PITA to use. FF.net is quite a bit easier to use and more organized.
It's also much more inclusive in what it allows.
(Though I could wish the misc./crossover would automatically put your
crossover in a crossover section and the major crossover-ees.)
