 Aaron...no offense...but I really, really think you're wasting your
 time. If you can't even bother to figure out how to write without
 using run-on sentences when you post rants, announcements, apologies,
 and all that to the ML, people aren't going to expect you to learn
 how to write properly for your fanfic even with punctuation and
 spellchecking. I'm sorry, but you just aren't a writer. Please give
 up before you cause yourself any more misery.

  Okay, I really hate to add to this flame war, but I'm tired of reading how
people fight over the littlest things! I've seen a man shot over a jacket.
Now as I read these flames, it's rather disturbing. 
   Robert, as the best fanfic writers I know, I don't think you should have
gone this far. You over reacted by telling him or her to stop writing. As the
more experienced writer, you should try to guide the rookie writers to
writing a better fanfic instead of telling them they are wasting their time.
This isn't a job, it really isn't anything important. Isn't this supposed to
be a hobby, something for people to have fun with? Some people take things
too seriously! Robert, you are a very talented writer. I bet you're a
talented journalist or something, or do something dealing with writing or
English, nee? Don't judge some of these writers on your level, but judge them
on a novice level. How would you feel if you were writing  a fanfic for the
very first time, and you received a letter like this. Do unto others as you
would like done to you. 
  And for Aaron... why do you let him get to so? I know you're angry, but the
way you handle this thing was rather immature. I really don't like hearing or
reading the word fuck. It was kind of insulting that you are angry at that. 
  Okay, deal with this as you please. Flame me or what not. I just like to
end with, "Can't we just all get along?"
