As AWE draws closer, I'm really considering putting up a post in the Sparrabeth comm about courtesy.
I think that'd be a good idea. People who might be averse to cooperation, if they see maintainers of two communities doing it, might change their minds. (And really, why should a Will-only community be anathema to J/E? I can sort of understand the reverse if enough Will-comm fans are W/E ... but being a slash writer, I've tried to keep things more on-track focused on Will himself rather than lapsing entirely into J/W as I'd probably enjoy, or entirely into W/E, which would just invite wank. Plus, I like Will himself just fine.) It won't stop the occasional bitching about "that other place" or "that character," but I don't expect miracles - just a lessening of the overall tension.
