The Dirty Energy Source

Do you want to make a spreadsheet about spreadsheets?
Do you still need to figure out what two other fandoms you should request beside the only one you really want fic for?
Or are you trolling ALL the letter posts for placeholders, just so you can write those people some nice, dry coal?

We want to know all about it.

Why, oh why, do people put "OOC" in their DNWs?

I'm tempted to do so, mostly because the last exchange fic I got was wildly, offensively OOC.

Did the writer recognize their fic as OOC, though? That's the problem with putting something like OOC in your DNWs - writers don't think that's what they're doing.

Right. It's like saying "No mediocre fic."

I don't think so, they seemed pretty unaware of most things. But since they took the time to lovingly trash a character who is pretty much the only 'good' guy of the lot, I think they knew exactly what they were doing.

So... you don't think they were aware of what they were doing, but you think they knew exactly what they were doing?

You could just ask for no character bashing.
