Reading some fics on this site, and other places I don't see people writing as a way to use their creativity, I see them writing fics just to be part of the fandom, or to seem cool.

I don't understand why my most recent fic got so many down votes, I would understand if it was low quality for the site, but other than the genre/setting I can't see anything wrong with it, it wasn't supposed to be serious.
