very well said. I write in several different fandoms (QAF being the most recent to capture my attention) and always am intrigued to read when an author takes a wild spin on something. I don't write a lot of AU fics personally, but I love reading them because they make me think. I however, do like to write things that are sometimes questionable to canon, because there are days that my mind goes, yeah that's what the show did, but this IS MY TAKE ON THINGS...screw what Canon would say!
I also hate it when what is supposed to be constructive criticism turns into personal attacks on the author. Its rude, its wrong and honestly, shouldn't happen.
