Hey. Is it possible to just report a badfic author rather than just a badfic? The one I came across is consistently bad, no matter what the fandom. For example, she crosses BtVS with Twilight, which in itself is kind of funny ("And then Buffy staked Edward. The End"), but the way the author does it is horrible. I can't stand Twilight and I cringed at the badness of it. She seems to be obsessed with the current pack of Disney-made stars- The Jonas Brothers, the kids from HSM, etc. Please, someone kill these badfics!

I'm thinking he's probably writing trollfic, or else he's just amusing himself by killing off characters from many and varied continua in messy and absolutely random ways.
Oh, and there are 90 fics. That's not an accidental zero there. -

Reasons:
1. It's horribly bad, as in somebody-call-the-DAVD and pack all the Bleeprin, but not actually NSFW.
2. It takes place in space, which could be an interesting setting.
3. We don't have Ender's Game badfic yet. -

This is one of those "so bad he's good" authors. Another one I like (for a very loose definition of "like") is Hans Van Hozel.

He apparently wants to write a fic for every fandom on the site, but he's... not very good. Don't miss the Titanic ones or the ones about the Beatles fighting ABBA. Also apparently "danube" is a verb. -

And the funny thing is, he's actually got German syntax down pretty well. I wonder if he actually is ESL, or if he's just pretending to be?

Either way he's a complete and total idiot.
Some of the stories are just copy and pasted from the other ones with the character names switched. This isn't writing, this is just complete and total stupidity designed to evoke an angry response in people.
The best thing to do with something like this is to ignore it entirely and move on. There's no point in saying anything about it or reacting at all, because its only purpose is to offend and get others attention, nothing more. -

I'd say "Evil Andy" would make a decent Agent if he wasn't too homicidal even for that.

Did you look at that anti-stereotype thing filling her profile? "I spot grammatical errors, so..." She had it bolded, meaning she thinks it applies to her. Permission to proclaim "Epic fail?".
(It should be said, though, that I agree about not making a list of badfic authors.) -

You can certainly report all the badfics one author has made, though we'd prefer not to antagonise anyone by making a list of "badfic authors" - it's rather rude, and there's nothing to say they can't improve later.
Trolls, on the other hand, you can report, if only so we can go and pick through their fanfics for anything mission-worthy. I'm not sure whether this person qualifies. -

Ah. Well, thanks for clarifying that.
