As to your main point... maybe this is me being over sensitive or reactionary or idek, but do you remember the wank that went down on the kink meme when I asked if we could stop requiring anonymity? The issue is not whether it would inconvenience anybody. The issue is that I thought my wanting things to be different was a reasonable reason to ask for the rules to be changed. And I am still apparently regarded as a high-handed bitch who thinks rules are beneath her in this fandom because of that, going by the comments about me on the hate meme I saw before I stopped looking. Like it or not (and I don't) footballslash has rules against posting het or gen. I would love to be proved wrong, but I'm fairly certain that the reaction to my going to football fandom and saying "hey it would be cool if our slash comm also allowed het and gen" would be "who cares what you want, this is a slash comm and we don't see any reason to change it on your sat-so". You know what I mean? Football fandom: lowering my expectations of humanity more with every day. XD
