Eh, not a fan of Fanlore, the layout hurts my eyes, some of the articles are pretty biased, and it's just not really all that welcoming in my opinion. But that's me, congrats on your milestone irregardless.
Now, what about YouTube's COPPA situation and won't it have an effect on people who use YouTube videos for their stories here?
Yeah, it's really not a welcoming environment in my experience. I encountered a very territorial individual who acts like she has ownership of various fandoms and who passive-aggressively threatened to delete or sabotage-edit a new fandom page I created because she didn't like some of the information I included (which I did my best to present in a "neutral" fashion, with the other opinion also included, as rec'd by Fanlore policy).
I didn't respond to her threat and she didn't follow through, but it's clear she was trying to run me off, and it basically worked. Why bother putting in the effort to create new pages when crazy people are allowed to run wild like that?
