    When doing stories set in the past... please do your research.

    Not knowing what you are writing about can... cause issues.

    Example:
    My dad read a book set in London and he was a bit annoyed that the author had characters riding bikes... 200 years before they were invented.

    Extreme example.

    Feature I wish Fimfiction had

    I wish fimfiction would clean up the in-progress list.

    What do I mean?
    Currently, if you go searching in the in-progress stories... you will find allot of dead/hiatus fics that the author never bothered to label as being dead/on hiatus.

    What I wish would happen.
    * Mark any story where the author hasn't logged onto the website in a year as dead.

    2. Wish fulfillment/Mary Sue -> Everyone loves my character! Everyone I fantasize about will mary him/her! And get along, even with wildly different and clashing personalities!
    3. Attempting to write a romance.

    There are many methods for getting to Equestria in FIM fiction. Thought I would make a list of them all.
    If I missed any, please tell me.

    WIP

    1. Natural/supernatural event - A random portal sucks the human and/or his surroundings into Equestria. The advantage of this is that it is short and to the point.
    Examples:

    Your house in Equestria...

    ...and why it shouldn't magically have utilities hooked up.

    I can't believe I'm actually having to post this... but... I just came across yet another story that does this.
