Sometime around June of 2000, the site Bad Fanfic! No Biscuit! was created by Siubhan and Joan the English Chick. The site, last updated in January of 2001, introduced or helped further the concept of badfic into a number of additional fan fiction communities, including this one. Unlike some badfic websites or sites which just pointed out badfic, as in of accidental inferior quality, the site had deliberate badfic and explanations as to what was not right with the story, what made the story bad.
On January 16, 2004, the mailing list RyanSeacrestMatureFic was created for people to post Ryan Seacrest fan fiction. [1]
In January 2005, the Harry Potter fan fiction community revisited the issue of obscenity and if some fan fiction was obscene. (fandomquibbler)
