An Interesting Survey

Done and done. ^_^

...I had no idea fanfics could be published... oO
 
That survey just made my night. ^.^
 
..Surprisingly, I had a lot of insightful comments to make on a lot of those topics. That was fun, thanks for posting that!
 
That survey was interesting. Although I've never heard of a website being taken down due to pressure from the entertainment industry. Has anyone else heard of this?

I do know that certain authors prohibit fanfics being written with their characters, i.e., Anne McCaffrey for one. I believe Anne Rice is another author who doesn't care for fanfiction.

You're right about Anne Rice - I'm told there's a notice on her website asking people not to write fanfics based on her characters.

As for websites being taken down, the closest to this that I've come across was the banning of NC-17 fics on fanfiction.net a few months back. That was in response to pressure from somewhere, but I don't know where from. The site itself is still up and appears to be functioning just as well (if not better) without these fics.
 
Hehehe... I didn' reply because I strictly am NOT a ficcer and don't pretend to be one, but I certainly will give that survey to my classmates. But I did find this odd...

55. Are you male or female?
1... Male
2... Female
3... Other


Usually they don't put that in surveys. o_O

Usually.
 
Did the survey ^_^.

And yeah, Didesy, I was like, "Other? Uh...is that possible?".
