To be honest, my problem with ff.net isn't really the badfic, it's that I dislike the interface on all its levels. The search and sorting capabilities, as well as the display system that only allows display in chapters, when I'm quite sure it wouldn't be impossible to have a script for a "display all chapters" button or something like that, so that you could choose whether to read a specific chapter, or to download the whole thing. So I don't care for looking for stories there, and it needs something very interesting for me to keep reading there. It's the same as with message board fic. Like in Farscape there's a lot of message boards and the Kansas board has really good stuff in its fanfic threads from all I hear, but so far I've only read two stories there that were specifically pointed out to me and not available anywhere else. And I really don't get why people would bother to archive in message board format, with moving posted stories to those older story threads after a while etc. like it's done on Kansas. Some fanfic distribution systems are just not in a format I care to read in.
