My problem with fanfic is that people get really technical. If you get 10 people on a JOe team, the writer has a tendency to tell us (the reader) what f'n weapon they are, the history of the weapon, what it looks like... I mean, it drives me bonkers sometimes. I tried writing my own, made it a few chapters and then lost energy. I would rather play and pose my Joes and make stories (you gotta figuer, when we played with them as kids, we had stories in our heads, even if they were incredibly lame and/or simplistic).

I guess I'm more interested in people's universes and how they do stuff than seeing the written word in black and white.
