Yeah, I check the listings there from time to time, but haven't found 
more than one or two stories that are good.  Every now and then I'll 
find a summary that has promise, but then the poor spelling in the 
summary itself turns me off.  Or the summary will be good, but the story 
has poor spelling, grammar, misspelled names, etc.  Sad to say, but that 
seems to be a fanfiction.net-wide problem.  I don't know if it's unique 
to fanfiction.net - I doubt if it is because I've been to a few other 
fanfiction sites and have seen numerous owner comments about poor 
spelling and such.

I have no problem with trying to stumble through a fic written by 
someone who is a non-English speaker and is doing their best, but I have 
no patience for stumbling through a story written by someone who should 
know better.
