My favorite het pairings:
Hermione/Draco Hermione/Harry Hermione/Cedric Hermione/Blaise Hermione/Fred Hermione/Charlie Hermione/Lucius Hermione/Harem (There's only really one good one like this that's not Hermione with just two people.) Harry/Luna Harry/Daphne Harry/Katie Harry/Harem (So long as Hermione is still a friend, even if she's not a part of the harem itself, these fics are okay) Neville/Luna Neville/Hannah Neville/Susan Bill/Fleur Tonks/Remus James/Lily
My favorite femslash pairings:
Hermione/Luna Hermione/Fleur Hermione/Pansy Hermione/Cho Hermione/Narcissa
In case your wondering, my favorite character is Hermione, so it's a prerequisition for me that she's a prominent character in most fics I read, even if she's not the main one.

Harry/Severus (both as slash and as a mentor/guardian/son, etc) Harry/Lucius (mainly for Veela stories) Harry/Voldemort or Tom Riddle (can be used as soul mates, harry going to Tom/Voldemort willing to die, but Voldie refuses to kill him type stories and it also depends on how its written) Harry/Charlie Fred/Draco/George (depends on how it's written) Harry/Daphne (depends on how it's written) Harry/Bill (depends on how it’s written) Harry/Hermoine (depends on how it’s written)

I'm a hermione fan myself. Do you get angry when people over look her in the RtBs? I do, especially when she has done a really great thing (e.g. the whole time-turner scene or actually being able to lie during torture) and no comments but they comment a ton on Harry or Ron.

Lately my favorite pairings have been Harry/Anyone-but-Hermione-or-Ginny. Basically the girl has to be someone other than those two.
I can tolerate Hermione and Ginny stories if they're well-written, but after years and years of reading fanfiction, it's rare to find a story with those two that's both good AND original.
Lately I've been craving Harry/Tonks, but I've run through everything on all the well-known sites and there doesn't seem to be much of a continuing demand for it.

What irritates me the most is that most of what's commented on about her is usually negative. And, if it's not that, it's, as you've said, ignored. Or, it's turned around somehow. Like one fic I've read - though it's one of my favorite RtB - it basically makes her weaker during the torturing part, like she wasn't strong as she technically is.

I don't like it when they make her weak, but there are those make her too strong, if you know what I mean. We need to find a balance, everyone has a breaking point, even strong people. But yeah, I totally understand the too weak part, where she cries at everything! That is just stupid. Same goes for Ginny and Molly, even though I don't like them.

Lavender is the kind of person who would cry at everything and break under torture, not Hermione. Hermione is a very strong character mentally and emotionally, if not magically. She just learns and understands the concepts behind a spell far quicker.

I don't really like slash pairings, and I only have a few favourite pairings. Most are canon: Ron/Hermione James/Lily Andromeda/Ted Lucius/Narcissa Bill/Fleur etc. but I also love reading Draco/Ginny and Luna/Dean.
I don't tend to read any Harry/anyone fanfics, but I'm not a fan of Harry/Ginny or Harry/Hermione. I will read stories where they're together, as long as they're not the main focus of the story.
Unfortunately, in many Draco/Ginny stories, Harry tends to be portrayed as the bad guy. I may not like him together with Ginny, but he's not a bad guy!

I don't think Lavender would cry at anything. She's girly yes, but not a weak person. I think she's just very straightforward. In my fic I'm trying to create her as a strong person. I think it's unfair to judge her from HBP

let's see... Harry/Hermione (I've gotten rather bored of Harry/Ginny) Remus/OFC Remus/Tonks Sirius/OFC (It makes me sad that he never seemed to have anyone.) James/OFC (The more stories I read about Lily the more I just don't really like her. I don't hate her, but I just don't see her as a good match for James and vice verse. But I've only found a couple good OFC stories for him.) Ron/Luna Neville/Luna Fred/Luna (I just love Luna! ) Hermione/Fred (I've read a couple of good ones like this.) McGonagall/Dumbledore (They're just good together.) Regulus/OFC (There are so many great fics out there of him.) George/Luna George/OFC There's probably more that I would enjoy, but those are just the ones I've been reading lately. Anyone have any suggestions?

I think it's unfair to judge her from HBP She was sobbing about her bunny dying. I think she probably cried when Ron dumped her. I'm not saying she shouldn't have cried, I'm just saying that she did and I believe she's a crier.

My fave pairings, hmmmm. Remus/Tonks Harry/Lucius Hermione/Draco Minerva/Severus Harry/Hermione Harry/Severus Neville/Luna Harry/Bellatrix, especially Earl of the North, Harry/Salazar Slytherin (time travel) Harry/Charlie
You may haven oticed I'm a bit of a slash fan, but I can read het, and I'm OK with Harry/Ginny, but it isn't a pairing I read often.

I'm personally not a slash fan so here are my pairings (I'm pretty canon) Harry/Ginny Harry/Hermione Ron/Hermone George/Angelina Fred/Katie Neville/Hannah A. Voldemort/Bellatrix (I could see it in a really creepy way) Sirius/Marlene Remus/Tonks Fred/Hermione George/Hermione Draco/Astoria Yeah pretty basic

Het: James/Lily (OTP) Bill/Fleur Narcissa/Lucius Ted/Andy (as long as Andy isn't written pathetically or weak)
Slash: Sirius/Remus (OTP) Draco/Harry Gellert/Albus Draco/Harry/Another Male (In particular Fanon Snape or Blaise and except Ron. This threesome works for me if H/D are already established or if they all go into at the same time and also if they all love each other equally rather than them having preferences). Sirius/Remus/James (I feel like I'm cheating my het OTP, again it has to be a functioning threesome than twosome plus one.)

Harry/Luna Neville/Hannah Lily/Severus Salazar/Helga (yes! I'm not ashamed of mentioning that! So what?)
Arianna/Gellert or maybe (timetravel) Luna/Gellert or Luna/Aberforth ? I've never seen those pairings, but I think they might be interesting...
I'm not a big Slash fan, but the pairings I can accept are: Albus/Gellert Harry/Neville and how about Remus/Regulus ? Never read one of those either...

I am really boring as my favourite pairing is Ron/Hermione and a distant second is Harry/Ginny. Honestly i see pairings like Harry/Hermione, Draco/Hermione or Harry/Snape and i wonder if these people have read the books because it can't be possible to keep these characters in character and have those pairings.

Ron is treated very very badly by a lot of authors in fan fiction. It is like they are angry at him for being the guy Hermione is in love with in the books (as they usually want Hermione with someone else) so they try and take out their anger on him in their stories.
