I completely disagree.

- If you want popularity and stories with 10 stars do this.
Write MCR fan fics containing either OC, slash or mpreg
Have no creativty and write like every other generic fan fic on this site
If you want to write originals expect the following.
A whopping one star at the end
A lot of single digits in readers per chapter
To be completly ignored
Um, that's borderline bashing, not everyone that writes fanfiction lacks creativity or has generic stories. I write only fanfic (not MCR), and I only have one story that has ten stars, and I worked damn hard to get it to that point. It takes effort to get stories noticed, you can't just sit there and expect people to stumble upon your story and give feedback on their own. Every person who has popular stories on this site has no doubt worked their ass off to get the popularity that they have, regardless as to rather they write original fiction or fanfiction.

But seriously though write for fun, do new or strange things, dfont fall into the same ruts as a lot of people. Write for yourself not for publicty. If they don't read your works that's their fault. ,
Hope you two realize it was mear sarcasm. Yes work hard but in the end there are a lot of writers out there who believe thatfan fics get a lot of attention and the OF gets pushed on the back burner. Disagree if you want but I stand by what I say. I would like to see some more original fiction and some different types of fan fic besides harry potter, mcr, a7x, and the likes

My own MCR fanfic JUST hit about two stars, and I've been publishing it consistantly and I think it's a good bit of writing, whereas my OF that doesn't get updated regularly hit five stars after the first chapter was published.
It's not always about what you write.
That's really rude. You're implying that fanfiction doesn't require the use of imagination. I don't think that people should write fanfic because they're afraid their original fic won't get as much attention, but I very much disagree that fanfic can't have imagination. Actually, I'm pretty sure it's impossible to write a story without using some amount of imagination.

For an author that is new publish some original fiction. Let your imgaination run wild. It really irrtates me to read in AN that they are scared to publish an original fiction, because that shows they are to afraid to come out of their comfort zone and use their imgaination. Let it run wild kid!
If I get heckled for this I will freak and that is not pleasent.
Seconded.

- Leave a chapter/story for at least a day after you finish it, then read it over again before posting. It's amazing how many typos you miss when you proofread something right after writing it.
I agree. When someone goes out their way to comment on a piece of my writing I, nine times out of ten, will go to their profile and thank them for taking the time to do so.
- The Birdman:
- Also give back to the community, if someone drops you a comment, no matter how brief shoot them a PM or a profile comment, usually it will make their day and then you could end up making a new Mibba friend.
I don't find this rude at all, and I don't think it's safe to imply that they're saying that fan-fic doesn't have any imagination. I believe the assumption should be more that fan-fiction doesn't require as much imagination as original fiction does because one, the character in fan-fictions tend to already have a personality set up with their existence and role in the story, unlike original fiction stories and two, the plots for fan-fictions tend to be more predictable and understood before it's read because of the life role the characters already play in real life.
