MWAHAHAHAHAHA

Damn, I deleted my Casshern evil!Tuti laughing icon XD

Oh, what do I hate?

I hate people who think other people are cliquey simply because those people are friends with each other and they post fics to their own journals instead of to the communities. (which means loads of people friend them, to keep up with the ficcage) Yes, they are friends with each other and like to post in their own journals. Get over it already 8D

Some people like to write without actually being part of the 'fandom'. It's perfectly reasonable.

I actually do have a 'watching' list of people I haven't friended and probably wouldn't friend me but whose fic I read. I just add to the links in a private post when I find them. I probably check that more often than the comms, especially since I tend to filter those out when memes like '20 things' are going around. It's just a more accessible form of bookmarking really.

I guess personally, when it comes right down to it, I wouldn't ever write fanfiction if no-one else was going to see it. I like fandom, regardless of what it might feel about me, lol, so I suppose that I, selfishly enough, feel a bit sad when people don't feel the same.

Neither would I - but not sharing on an lj community isn't the same as not sharing. There's a lot of immature behaviour in fandom and I'm one of the people who shies away from that. I also prefer to post my (miniscule output of) fic using a particular layout and in a place where I don't feel constrained about going back to change it later, or worry about catering to an 'audience'. Although, considering half my fic revolves single parent Ken and a small army of difficult children, I think it's safe to say the audience would be be pretty limited anyway.
