The 'everything goes' Tolkien LJ community you're proposing sounds interesting. I think all the divisions in this fandom are so silly, especially the big het/slash division.
I find myself really stuck in between the whole mess (which is one reason I've been looking into web space options). I follow my plot bunnies, which sometimes want to write het and sometimes slash (and my femslash story is actually f/f and f/m). The trouble is that I can't post the NC-17 stuff to ff.net and aff.net has become completely unreliable. I hate dealing with LoM - I don't understand why anyone would want stories in a .txt format and the delay in posting stories is a problem, particularly when you need to fix an error. And I'm still resisting HASA - the whole MA blowup has been a very draining distraction and I'm not sure if I can handle the politics at HASA.
