Why isn't there a FanFic Fourm?

I like to know why? I'm a FanFic writer on www.fanfiction.net and www.rangerborad.com and I like to know why you don't have a Sailor Moon and other Anime Fanfic forum?

Because The rules state not to promote personal works. Such as promoting your website, fictions, art, poetry or ect. An expressional forum would entail promotion of your personal work.

Some forums ban promotions of artwork, fictions poetry due to the theift factor. Especailly popular forums. They don't want to be a part of copyright infringment.

I hope I answered your questions. ^_^

Here's another reason for it. Fanfics are grouped under either Sailor Moon or Other Anime. There are a few scarce threads about fanfics, but not many. So, an actual forum for it wouldn't be used enough here.

Well, there are topics about fics but we don't post the fics

I'd add another reason:

- if you post a fanfic, and if you're a decent writer, this'll take up space. and long posts are quite hard to read (I know of that, I posted an insanely long one a few days ago u_u)

[Edit: Err, I mean, fics don't have only 10 lines, usually it's much more, huh ^^;;]
