LOL. Yep. She's the poster girl for what not to do in fandom. Actually, the numbers of illegitimate writers in the HP fandom is greatly reduced once one leaves the Pit. Sure, there's wank, but it's usually focus around the time when books are released or select weirdoes find fandom, lol. I've actually had great fun in the HP fandom.
As for BNFs...I think they're just fine, as long as they don't start believing the fangirl propaganda. That's when the tears and recriminations (and lots and lots of wank starts). And yes, we would if the discussion gets out of hand. :p
You know what, I like the third one. Because I know if I were Catherine or Calleigh, I'd be weighing the odds of my male co-workers getting it on behind closed doors. Makes an awfully pretty picture. :p
