1. I usually get most excited about meta that brings up an aspect of the subject that I never considered before.* Ergo, I don't have an opinion going in, so I can't say it changes my mind. The only meta I've ever recc'ed was your "Trigger" one, so draw your own conclusions. ;-)
2. My f-list seems blessedly free of both types. I do stay away from the boards, though. That way lies madness.
3. Hear, hear. The last month has brought an alarming number of public comments along the lines of "I don't like such and such a story." Although I understand that my benevolent dictatorship of the web hasn't really caught on (yet), it is in everybody's best interest to be POSITIVE! If you really want to bitch about someone's (totally free to you, no requirement to read/view) work, do it in a PM, like the rest of us.
4 & 5. Ah, life's little lessons!
*I'm also crazy about fic that makes me see a character or a situation in a new light! Hats off to anyone who can manage it! Or, is that the whole point of fanfic? Hmmmm.
