Open letter

Dear Fanfic Author,

If you are not going to bother answering comments, then I'm not going to bother with leaving you one, no matter how much I liked your fic. And no, I'm not talking about comments a few days old that you just haven't gotten around to yet. I'm talking about comments that were left several months ago and haven't been acknowledged with even a simple 'thank you'. Also, if it's clear that you're only answering comments left by your in-crowd or other so-called BNFs, then I will be doubley disinclined to acknowledge your fic in any way. Because nothing gets up my nose faster than that sort of high-school elitism and if that makes me a petty bitch then so be it. You can take your entitlement issues and 5 pages of unanswered comments and fuck off.

Ask me if I care,
Kat

It's the entitlement issues. Which I want to roll up and shove where the sun don't shine. But yeah, I'm with you on answering all comments on my journal/posts. Someone takes the time to communicate with me, the very least I can do is somehow acknowledge that. Like you I leave the notifs in my inbox until I've answered the comment in question.

Argh, venting! Lol, my flist must think I'm on drugs tonight...
