No amount of intrepretation can account for Yami Yuugi beating Yuugi or Kaiba crying like a girl because he got a papercut. Or Yuugi bashing Anzu or for Pegasus to have a daughter, or for any other number of things that people will do in fanfic. That wasn't what I was getting at, however. I have had people give me the 'If you don;t like it, don't read' for pointing out that they made a very large error, or saying that the way that they write the character is inconsitant, or saying that I didn't care for how they overused a plot device or any other coment that wasn't 'OMG SOOOO GREAT LOLOLOLOL' [Note: I am not tryign to draw parallels here, just pointing out examples where the argument you made has been overused and why it doesn't hold much water]

Considering that no matter how I treat people in this fandom, I am often treated rudely, I've really stopped careing. There is no reward for politeness, so I often don't bother to calm down from my inital 'Goddamnit, someone is being stupid again!' reaction. Afterall, if you're expecting to be bitched at anyway, why bother being nice? *shrugs*
