fanfiction etiquette:

don't like the ship? don't read it.
don't like the premise? don't read it.
don't like writer's choices? drop it.

feel like being mean? go away
feel entitled? go away

like a story? say thanks
update? say thanks
have a minute? elaborate thanks
Enjoy the work or just ignore it. People are getting nothing out of writing stories, they just do it out of love.

If they're on Twitter, DM them and ask if they'd like to hear ur pointers or for u to share those editing errors. If not, in ur comment, talk about how it is a great work first. Leave ur grammar corrections as a P.S at the end of ur comment. Ask if they'd like a beta.
A lot of people quote rt'ed this and I won't be replying to everyone, but I see you discussing amongst yourselves and I see you mentioning writers who have been bashed for writing for a specific ship. And, yes, this also goes for art. 😌
