I'm not the world's best LJ-er. Sometimes I go a week or more without getting online to check my flist. Sometimes I check it every day. And I love my flist! *pets you all* But community wise ... sometimes there's some slogging to do. Like this new community I joined. At first, there was great fic. Sure every once in a while you might get a crappy piece, but at least the odds were in your favor. But now, posting has slowed and there is one person who posts every day. Well, multiple times in a day. And it would be exciting if it was awesome, fun to read, well written stuff. But it's not (IMO). It's poorly characterized (gah! pet peeve right there) dreck, with awful grammar and is a bit cringe inducing overall.
Yikes. Okay, that sounds a bit harsh ...but true... I could just leave the community, but then I'll miss out on all the good stuff as no one in the comm is on my flist. Maybe I should just do it and truck to the comm to check for new posts of interest. I know boards often have a politeness caution about overposting. Do LJ comms ever have anything like this? Should I even ask the mod or just let it go? I don't want to cause any trouble ... but if it's bothering me it's probably bothering others too, right?
In completely unrelated news, today at work I wore my hair all sleeked back today with a little curly puff over a shoulder instead of my normal crazy fro - the horrors! But I got compliments! "Chic!" I somehow pulled off chic in scrubs! This is a true miracle. And yay! I have a new hairstyle! :)

Plus, if the mod is smart, they will realize that by person posting X fics a day, it shoves other people's fics to the bottom of the pile, making it harder for those fics to be found.
It's just amazing - I wish I could write that much and post that quickly. Instead everything I write recently ends up in a brick wall. *sighs mournfully*

--That is very hard to do and I congratulate you.
