It's not negative. ****ed up tenses stand out like a sore thumb to anyone with a brain. Anything with that kind of easy **** to notice immediately feels like garbage fanfiction and invites ridicule no matter how good the story, cause we've all read that kind of poorly edited **** that simply begs to be ignored. It's that kind of **** that makes someone immediately press the Back button cause clearly the author is not competent.
