Is there something about Due South fandom that encourages annoying formatting? I don't think I've come across many instances anywhere else, but here I keep getting links to all these stories in book-type format -- one line break and a tab for each paragraph. Which, you know, is hard enough to read on screen (especially for long amounts of time) that I'm automatically skipping them, including ones that seem to be recced highly.

It is mighty vexing, I must say.

Honestly, I think I'm just too lazy too put the formatting effort into it, you know? If they're not in a way comfortable to me to read, I won't read them. It's just a little annoying it's happening so often all of a sudden.

Well, it depends on how attached you are to reading things in that fandom. For Firefly, I'll save and reformat *anything*. For other fandoms, it depends. It's kinda like LJ - anyone who uses white (or worse, red) text on a black backgroud isn't gonna say anything that I want to read. :>
