Oy. I ride the crackvan and do I bitch (elsewhere) when a reviewer-of-the-month for one of my fandoms says, "I am an A/B shipper, so that's what know to recommend" when A/B is not my ship? No, I just skip that fandom that month and keep my big mouth shut, b/c 1) I was warned, thank you, I'm not sitting on tenterhooks waiting for my OTP, 2) I only ride, I don't ever volunteer to drive, and 3) I get upset enough when we get a driver who recommends fics that are poorly written vis-a-vis grammar-and-punctuation mechanics, plot, or characterization, so I'm sure as hell not gonna bitch just because good fic that's not my OTP is being rec'd.
If folks aren't gonna volunteer to rec, then they got no bitch when the only person willing to step up isn't playing by all the comm rules.

I'm kinda glad I'm not following that comm, now.
