Welcome to the Writer’s Guild
Rule 1: Only 1 thread per author. Please place the link to your stories in that thread and simply modify the title on updates.
Rule 2: Update Your FanFic thread. This is for updates only. You can comment about the update on the author's thread.
Rule 3: The only ship allowed on this site is Max and Logan. That means links as well.
Here is a response by Star24 that states CLEARLY our stance.

Some members have asked what our position is regarding members ship preferences and also how we feel about the character, alec.
Many of us started out as fans of the show with the Max and Logan relationship as an added bonus that we also grew to love. In S2 they deconstructed all of the elements of S1 that we loved - Manticore, the darkness, the broken world, Eyes Only missions, Lydecker etc and didn't leave much other than the M/L ship, even though that was in bad shape as well.
The fans here prefer the basics of S1 - darkness, intelligent plotting, the broken world, with M/L as a subtle subplot, but not the main focus of the show. Max and Logan working together with that underlying UST and romance but not as the upfront emphasis.
I think any antagonism you will see about alec is due to the way the character was used in S2. Instead of being a good secondary character he was pushed too much to the forefront overshadowing not only Logan, but Max as well. It sometimes seemed Dark Angel was being changed to Dark alec!
Many Logan fans were also upset by TBA and the fact that alec was given a background episode when they have been waiting for 2 seasons for one for Eyes Only.
M/A shippers won't be happy here because we don't allow threads for them or for alec - we don't want to have the hostility and fighting that seems to develop whenever you have two groups of opposing shippers together.
We welcome anyone here who wants to discuss and enjoy the show within those guidelines.
