Amen. AUs are especially difficult, and tend to get ignored on Dear_Mun anyway because a lot of people don't seem to grasp the concept, or like how an AU is played just because you're putting a character in to a whole new universe. IDK, there's a lot of gripes about it and you're absolutely right on all these points.
I guess its when people complain about canons that drive me crazy. I mean, Greg Sanders is canoncally goofy, usually fairly optimistic, likes to flirt, ect ect. Generally, a happy guy, right? But you put any person, even happy ones, through too many damn knocks they're going to start to wear thin. Especially when their loved ones are threatened/hurt/taken away from them. Yet I'm just waiting for Greg's recent breakdown to come across some one's screen and for them to start screaming CSI Blasphemy on me. *rolls eyes* Paranoiachachacha.
It's cool about the AIM thing. I honestly have no idea if its up right now. This whole fuxxor'd LJ thing had my computer crash today. I'll put it up tomorrow if its not already up.
