Look, fanfic is more personal, okay? It just is.

When you write something for traditional publication, you KNOW it's going to be picked apart by someone. All commodities are (and that's what original fiction is in our capitalist world, a commodity).

When you write something for free, it's out love
"Why are you not supposed to publicly criticize fanfiction?"

Because you're bitching about a free service that takes a mountain of effort, provided by someone who takes time out of their busy day to provide this service, because they didn’t do it exactly the way you wanted, WHERE THEY CAN HEAR YOU.
