i know it reminded me that i'd meant to sign up to rec and just hadn't remembered, so hurrah for that?
also, i don't know what was up with the grudge anon(s) who were insisting that you reccing mostly ten/rose was some ultimate evil. it's not my thing but it's also not a surprise when someone comes on and says "i pretty much only read and write ten/rose" that their favourite fics are going to be... ten/rose.
i did understand when a few anons were "..." when you explained why you recced the fics you did here (http://community.livejournal.com/who_anon/5574.html?thread=24363718#t24363718), because it did come across a bit as "there's no good femmeslash and most boyslash is about people being suddenly gay for eachother and is unbelievable and to some extent inherently crack". i'm the anon who responded there in all-lower case wondering if you meant it the way it came across to me (shocking, i know). i saw that later you responded somewhere else by saying that you'd worded that poorly, which cheered me quite a bit (i still think "the loved verse" is seriously problematic, but that's a separate issue). er, if you were wondering what one anon's opinion might have been, at least.
