Well most of us lie about our age when we're 12-17, but there are people 30+ who unironically are very WOWZERS THAT WAS HOT :PPPPPP and write shitty. If their main fandom is that way too, how will they know what good fic looks like?

I'm *swipes hand across mouth* fifty-ish-ish, and there are plenty of fans my age and older who leave unintelligible squee about hotness and HNNNNNG and ignore stories with careful, crafted characterization. To each his very own. (I'm not above leaving "hot" comments, but typically there's a lot more to it than that.) So I guess really they could be any age. It just reads younger and less well-read to me.

I hope they're not on coal, or if they are, they take it as a challenge to improve.
