I used to read so much HP fanfic too! That was the last time I would just got to the pit and check out what the latest fics were (is so scarred).
Also, I think part of the reason I'm not too fond of Snape in romance is that there's a lot of crap out there. Because if the general rule that 90% is crap and 10% is good, then it means that it's that much harder to find it in the HP fandom since it's so huge. Way too much stuff I've tried to read is OOC.
Honestly, I think some pairings and some set-ups bring all the crappy writers to the yard. Snape+romance being a prime example (not the least because it's fucking hard to do right).
So I imagine in the Snape genre it's probably 96% crap.
