XD It does, dear. It's called the fanfics page. *is shot multiple times*
Anyway, yep. While the list tends to be dominated by stories on FFNet and dA, the forum that recs the most stories tends to be BMGf. Obsession, Rival's Story, The Power Inside, and Dragon Days in particular. And, of course, the aforementioned fic list on the fanfics page, of which a sizable chunk are actually Bulbagarden fics. (Yes, exaggeration, but they're still prominent enough for me to notice, anyway. Not that I mind because now I'm tempted to put up an article for my work, just to be a serious attention *****.)
Also, don't worry. ;D So long as you know that fandom's not serious business, it won't be. Or so long as you know what lulz are. And as for troll authors, I feel like most people think they're acceptable targets. Even though, y'know, the more practical idea is to avoid them and whatnot. But hey!
