That is nice feedback. Sounds like words to live by as a fanfic writer. I hope I do the same. I won't make the characters perfect and sometimes they even do bad things (I mean I know how you felt about whay they did in Cabin Fever) but I think a writer can get away with that as long as the characters show an awareness that they are doing something dubious, feel bad about doing it and have an otherwise good motive for doing it.

Generally though I hate bashing fics, even bashing of characters I don't like. Frankie gets bashed plenty, but I don't like that. (Yes, I know, I made him evil and shot him, but ya know, he was more interesting that way!) Just because people don't like Stockwell that's no excuse to turn him into a moustache twirling villain tying a helpless Face to the railroad tracks.
