FiMF.net has one of the best interfaces and archival/submission systems I've 
ever encountered on a fanfic site. It's not perfect, it needs extensive 
tweaks, but it's pretty damn good for what it is. I have nine stories posted 
there and have received a lot of views and quite a considerable amount of 
commentary, though I wouldn't go so far as to label even 1% of it as 
"constructive criticism". But even just the general comments are 
encouraging.

Offtopic rant, since you brought it up: The staggering amount of clop on 
FiMF ANNOYS THE HELL OUT OF ME, especially when clop tends to dominate the 
featured box. And I honestly wish the very CONCEPT of "foalcon" had never 
even existed. Clop is bad enough as it is, that's just going too far. When 
it comes to MLP:FiM, my motto is "keep ponies pure", because that's one of 
the things that makes the show so amazing to begin with. Its purity.

Sorry for the digression, back to the topic at hand. ^^;;
