Amalthia's recs and fan works

God, that's awful.

I haven't clicked into it, as yet. But...just the thought alone is so off-putting.

I mean, if you don't like something, you just don't read it, yeah? It's not as if anyone's standing on the back of the reader's neck pushing them to do anything they don't want to.

Why would people read stuff just to bitch about it? Where's the joy in that. Isn't this meant to be creative and joyful - or at the very least a vaguely encouraging environment that people feel free to show off their creative endeavours. Jesus - that just really pisses me off. I'm going to try and ignore my curiosity and not look into it, because I need to follow my own advice and not read utter shit.

(May I ask - was there any helpful advice on the site, or was it all just people being uselessly cruel?)
