I write fanfic's, books and more. But I was thinking about reviews I sometime get on my fanfic. (Anyone that writes or reads fanfics know what talking about.) When do you cross the line form being a reviewer, to being a crazy obsessed freak? Who goes around giving bad review to anyone story that does fit what you think should happen in a story. (Not just in a story but in a TV show or movie too)

OK here a exmaple of what I mean:::

What are you stupid? They would never fall in love, they hate each other. You story is a load of cr*p. You KNOW that she would only fall in love with Ron.

That what I talking about When do ppl cross that line?

Well, I never posted up any ideas up before so I really don't know how that would feel, but some people at my old school do make fun of me behind my back (I act like I don't know) so in a way, I would know how you would feel.

Just let those people slide off your back. Almost everyone posts the pairing they're working with at the very beginning of the story (or, in a few cases, simply say "Surprise Pairing, scroll to bottom of story for spoiler"), so people that review (following your example) a DM/HG story when they're RW/HG fans or DM/HP fans are just being stupid... They were warned at the beginning that this was not a story for their pairing!
If the same people flame you for the same thing on every one of your stories, reply politely, ask them to just mark you off of their author list and, if all else fails, block them somehow or just delete/ignore without reading the review.
Personally, I thought Xander and Spike (on Buffy the Vampire Slayer) belonged together, but the writers paired Spike with Buffy. Was I happy? No. Did I rant? You betcha. Did I write a long bit ching letter and stop watching? ... And miss Spike-shaped nudity... hell no!

I try to be fair and courteous if I review someone's fiction. I don't think reviewing gives one a license to trash another's work, or be cynical or insulting.
I just put up my very first fanfic story the other day on Fanfiction.net.
It's in the MOVIES category, under SUPERMAN. It's called A SUPER CHRISTMAS. Considering your question, I'd be very interested in reading your review of my story, if you wish.
