   God Awful Fan Fiction.  Originally a place to post reviews of horrible   
   fanfics, it eventually got usurped by the much livlier forums (think 4chan   
   with acutal standards of behavior).  A few years ago, the site's owner   
   decided to close up shop.  A couple of attempts to continue the spirit of   
   GAFF have taken place (the most notourious being The House of Bad Fanfiction,   
   which disolved in a cloud of wank).  Why, God, Why is the current spiritual   
   sucessor.

   There isn't one.  "There is no such thing as notability" is the site motto.   
   The only real standard for putting up works pages is one of formatting and   
   basic content (a two sentence description with no trope examples will be a   
   magnent for Cut List requests).   
      
   Glad you enjoyed!
