So normal fandoms exploding into lunacy shortly after you find them is a regular occurence for you, is it? I shouldn't find that as surprising as I do. (bytheway, I'm reading through your journal because of the people who post blatant crack in your comments. What will it take for me to drag you back to the TG fandom and write more crack for the list? Because I've made it all the way through what's available and now have nothing insane to read.)
And you're so right about the TG fandom, it's the friendliest fandom ever. The last three fandoms I was in, (Doctor Who, Naruto, and X-Men Evo) were really not all that great as far as the people went, because Narutards (*snorts*) are as scary as Potterheads when it comes to the shipwars, and the people in the Who fandom tend not to be that nice to you when they find out that you regard Rose as a useless tart with borderline Mary-Sue tendencies, and nobody really does the X-Men Evo fandom anymore either, so you have to build a following over a five year period just to get anyone to read your work.
Sorry, that ran a bit long, didn't it? (I was going to put this at the bottom, but then I spotted the bit in the previous comment and couldn't resist.) Anyway, what I really want to ask is how you get people to spam your comments with fic (sometimes without even asking), because I want people to do that to my journal and I can't get much response even when I do ask. I've only had one entry get any response at all.
