In all honesty I do feel that a huge percentage of the stories on this wiki- especially the more well-known ones- are of rather poor quality. Coming across a pasta that I enjoy for both good writing and a good story is a rare discovery.

That being said, it seems to me that the type of writers you were talking about often seem to have a misguided view of this site. They think that just getting a story up on here will bring them popularity even if it's such poor quality that it's deleted within a few minutes. The vast majority of the stories on this site get little to no attention outside of here and there is no magic way to make your work more popular, as I see new users asking from time to time.

But if it's popularity you're after then you probably are not a serious writer.
