I agree with the rules, and don't have a problem with them, and will admit to being guilty of the odd 'could you email it to me please' posting.
The problem is I am a new QAF fan, I only discovered the show 7 months ago, and people like me will always be intrigued by anything we can't get hold of easily, i.e. fics from authors no longer around, who have left the fandom for whatever reasons, authors who don’t have sites, or fics uploaded anymore, such as Mouse, so there will always be a demand for those fics, especially as quite a few of the older links in memories don't work anymore.
I do agree with not emailing or asking for flocked fics though, if they are flocked then the author has a site so it’s only polite to ask to join their site. If they say don't contact me I would always post a comment, if its possible, then its up to the author to decide what to do, most authors on LJ and IJ are very good so I can't see it being a problem.

Thanks for clarifying what is allowed
