Maybe it's like drinking responsibly? Like, "don't do it for so long that you park your car in your neighbour's window"? Mainly applies, presumably, to those folks who get feverish writing urges and sit scribbling for hours till their brains stop working, resulting in bizarre, often ruded behaviour until they pass out of heat/hunger/exhaustion.
:D Oh, and word! about the outsiders things. They're not going to care if it's a "responsibly written" story, any more than the Potter-hunters care about the attitude toward witchcraft in HP. There's a wizard on the cover, ergo it's a 955 page treatise on Why You Should Become a Pagan, Kid. The same thing's going to apply to fanfic; it says 'incest' in the header, ergo it's a 10,000-word essay on Go Out and Bonk Your Relatives, Right Now! ((eyerolling))
