And, most don't even try to listen to constructive criticism in that regard. Sad. They're not even original most of the time.

Flattery also doesn't work here. Either you do it nicely and they keep doing the same thing, or you do it sarcastically (or sometimes, not even like that) and they take it as an insult.

And even when their OCs are original and not Mary/Marty Sues, their fanfics are not. I've seen the same premise so many times, It's making me sick. And the ones that are original, are the most often ignored, at the least.

Hell, if anyone wants Original Fanfic Material to use, tell me and I'll give it to you. If only to inspire other RWBY fans to do the same. If they don't listen directly, let's make them listen indirectly.
