I agree about the shiny fics on AO3. It's actually why so few of my stories are on there. I feel like I would have to clean them up to a level beyond even fest-worthy. It's kind of intimidating.
I also agree that there are ruder comments there than on LJ. I was shocked more than once during Smoochfest. I think because of the community feel of LJ, people are more likely to keep their unkind thoughts to themselves. AO3 is almost too anonymous.
I like AO3, but if I could only have one sight it would be LJ.
