Oh, and the one thing I'm really not sure if I like is the way the members list is organized.
The drop-down menu gives the following options: Oldest to Newest Newest to Oldest Member Name Most Viewed Featured
Just like the options for Fanfics, it defaults to Newest to Oldest, which is okay, I guess, but why not just stick with the alphabetic list like most places? With this system, I feel like we're being offered up on the fanfic version of ebay...
Not to mention that the 'Featured' just really sticks in my craw in a bad way. How does one become featured? I suppose some competition among writers is okay, but I have a feeling that this could turn into a war as authors begin to vie over the 'top position' of the featured list. Fandom in general has enough 'sticky spots' on it's own without adding to it...
