I fully admit that I have ficced out of *spite* on a few occasions.
I used to be very involved in creative LJ fannishness under a different psuedonym and this was exactly where most if not all of my fic writing came from. I was po'd at what the creators had done to "my show" or "my Character" and I needed to fix it for myself. Heck, I once even hosted a ficathon that was all about being ticked off at the direction a character went and wanting to read alternate scenarios. It was a hit, btw. :)
In short, although some people may complain about it, criticisms of the source media has always been a part of my fannish experience on LJ. Sometimes people get upset. It happens.
