And now people are complaining that they only have one 300 word gift. IT IS A 300 WORD EXCHANGE. How unexpected, who could have predicted, etc.

This is FFA's general approach to exchanges. And I don't just mean surprise/dismay at getting a fic just above minimum word count. I mean ignoring/sniping/dismissing warnings that "X thing might happen," getting disappointed at "X thing" happening even though they could have easily taken steps to avoid/amend it, and then acting like "X thing" was something no one could have expected. I don't know why this is their M.O. where exchanges are concerned, but it gets tiring fast.

Certain nonnies are definitely that way, but I find it relatively easy to scroll past their whining and on the whole the Exchanges thread is my favourite part of FFA.
