I mean, if the fic is *truly* deep n' meaningful, shouldn't it be a given that the majority are not going to get it anyway, considering what the baseline is? If you take the people who are writing and considering those who are reading probably have even less skill, what can one expect?

I guess the wheel keeps turning round and round... but we never get anywhere. XD Kristi probably has the best handle on the situation. (In other words, 'why are we having this discussion again?' is as good a response as any)

I guess I think when you yourself are a 'radical' reader, you shouldn't be surprised when you get them?

Exactly. It is not a secret that the vocal-majority of the fandom are young, or just not interested in the deep and meaningful (it is all about the pron my friend).

I think that's a great way of looking at it. Will stop talking about this after this comment (maybe). And will spend my time reading fics and NOT commenting.

I prefer the term 'open-minded' ;p

People never get tired of it because they have substantial benefit from changing or keeping the status quo, socially. Even people who write rants about how no one is entitled to anything feel obliged to tell people to comment, which makes me laugh.

True. Ph33r the open-minded reader. XD
