Wow, it was time since I updated my pointless profile.

The avatar of mine, is just a picture of Jack, a character from a game called "Little Fighter" in case anyone wonders.

About moi

Pen Name Origin: Fused with my nickname "Ekan" and Swede. I didn't choose "EkanSwede" since The Pokémon Ekans is in it. And I don't really like that. Another fun fact is that Eka is Swedish for rowing boat. The Swede in the name is pretty much and enhancement in case you couldn't see the flag up there. And I'm not Swiss! laughs

Gender: Male (I can't think of how many times some have guessed otherwise. I must have feminine writing!

Age: Too old.

Location: Scania (Southern Sweden), in front of my computer.

Usual story preferences

I'm a pretty bland reader, checking out random stories and such. Current stories of interest are PMD1 fics, although I've seen few - if any - good novelizations. If you found one, feel free to post it.

Even though some may not believe it, I usually go with the often mentioned standard "Don't like, don't read/review". However, shoving this down on others is just plain rude. Telling others what to do is nothing but begging to be attacked.

Reviews: My Style of Reviews. Priorities, Strengths&Weaknesses

As a lot of us claim, I try to be as honest as possible. And that usually means I will point out several errors and stuff that seems repeating. I rarely try to flame, but there are some stories that just ask for it. And if I have nothing to say about the story, I don't review. And if someone previously has pointed out things I would've pointed out, I won't review either. Of course my goal is to help other improve, what else would be the point to review? laughs

But of course, I also often try to take some things into account, such as an author's first language not being English, and age. Yes, you read that right. But the thing is, just because someone is young, doesn't mean that someone is a bad writer. The thing is, if I'm going to complain about spelling and grammar errors, I might take a check on the author's page to see what age they are.

My strengths seem to be finding spelling erros and typos. And I would guess that is the only strength I have. A weakness would be pointing out continuity mistakes, and the rest I'm average at.

Badfics

Let's be blunt, people. Most of you reading this has probably heard of either of these stories

"Halflife Full Life Consequences"by squirrelking (Search in Halflife section to find)

"My Immortal"by... uhm... someone. (Search Harry Potter section)

These two are well known stories through out the site of their badness. But there is something that you all have missed. These two authors were trolls. They knew what they were doing. They wrote their fics to make fun of fanfiction writers. You were all fooled, even I was fooled at first.

I laugh at anyone who thinks that those authors were real. And I bet most of you who know this does as well.
