I think we all understand that it's a lot of work for you, and that anyone doing that much work is going to make mistakes. And we all appreciate you for doing that hard work. I'm certainly not out to crucify you guys, which is why I called it a slight issue above. You do great work for the fandom and I don't mean to discourage you.

But when a story goes out in the newsletter miscategorized, it can cost people readers. Often the author doesn't see the mistake for a while, and since most people read the newsletter the day of publication and don't go back to it, fixing it doesn't even help that much. And when the story is already in a category that has to struggle for readership, it's all the more irritating for the author. Even the relatively small John/Teyla community didn't read that story Livia mentions because they didn't know it was there for them! That's certainly the only reason *I* care--otherwise you could label my stories whatever the heck you wanted and at worst I'd roll my eyes: it's your newsletter and you can do whatever you want. So that's why people can get a little peeved at times.

(And, okay, this illustrates Livia's point. You talk about the problem of *het* being subtle or at the end--but there are plenty of *John/Rodney* stories that are subtle or have the actual smooches at the end. It's not a problem limited to het stories at all. But since you all care more about John/Rodney, and are more attuned to it and its signals, you're more likely to catch it. That's not because you're evil or campaigning to suppress non-John/Rodney or whatever. It's because it's what you tend to see.)
