One of them claimed I was trying to "buy friends", another said I was tyring to force people to write smut *since I said all ratings/paiorings were accepted*....just crap like that. :(
They forget that I'd have been paying for this out of my pocket! It wasn't to "buy friends", it was to encourage good fan fiction. I buy books from Walden Books, Barnes and Nobles, ect, all the time - why not shell out for some really great fan fanfiction? The whole idea was to present authors with a fun, challeging contest with a nice reward at the end - like any real contest.
I guess they missed that.

I totally did not get a "buying friends" vibe from the idea, nor did I get any sort of "smut yay" agenda, just acceptance of all ratings. It's pretty weird how far these people had to stretch to come to those conclusions. I'm impressed. Not in the good way.

I'm constantly amazed at just how assholey people can be. And have you noticed that some people will go out of their way to be upset/offended/hurt over something? Sheesh.

LOL Believe me I know exactly what you mean!
And I'm glad that at least one person understood the real idea.
