Anyone ever launch the idea of coordination amongst authors here?

So you're telling me, that you're on a grand mission to take down someone hogging the trending list?
no. the *whole* thing in general, is like being the "clean" sports team? getting cheap shotted by a goon team, the whole game, Its silly.
Or well, just someone big here. Is that it?
nope. I harbor no jealousy for the better writers. I cheer them on. If I saw *any* author from here on any other site? I'd give them love. I ever see "Nolff" has a novel on another site? click click click.
I'll consider this an option... Only, after you give me links of your written stories.
on RR? same name as here. *empty* account.

click on my avatar, some of my novel's are there.
I'm slowly editing every work in my catalog, and putting them up.
my today editing, is better than what it was when they were written.

how does my writing style or ability, change. It doesn't.

why *not*.
what gives *them* the idea this is the right thing to do.

no. I don't. we have a writing contest, and the best writers are our team. that? encourages and supports actual *good* writers to get the benefits of this. For once.

joke answer: why. which guild are you in (kidding)
real answer: *do*.
Just give me some links of your stories. Gonna read it. No, I'm not review-bombing.

RR is the last place I'm currently posting fiction. (Still lurking here.... I like this place lots more so maybe, we'll see...)

I have some organically grown readers and unsolicited reviews at RR. I have a backlog 2 1/2 complete novels long, and readers want me to keep posting.

But I HATE it there. For this reason. It's not the fault of my readers, and they're caught in the middle. But I HATE the place. And if I pull my work out of there, it will be nowhere.
hell. I recognize your screen name, I've seen you in threads I was in.
oh, that's my buddy's novel... *love*
why wouldn't a hundred more of us do the same, I don't know.

look at it like this. You're playing monopoly.
there's players, starting the game out, with 10,000 to start out with. you? get the usual 200 bucks.
level the playing field. you should get, what they get to start out with.
in my book? that's the only *fair* way to play the game.

This Mofo... Is desperate. No, I am not kidding.

Three novels? All already on hundreds of thousands of words? But not getting good views? As in, only a hundred views on each novels? And a small amount of readers on each too?

Fuck this formality and sugarcoating. I'm lifting the sugar.

Mate, you are an attention-craving parakeet. And, hello? Why are you posting with such level of grammar, while the grammar on your novels are more decent to be used here? Doesn't mean your wording there is good either.

:blob_evil_two: BL Palace indeed is a group of BL writers and artists.

Our reason to exist was not to boost our ratings but to support each other and promote the genre in general. It do be happening that we read through our friends’ works and comment on them, but that’s entirely voluntarily and just a thing happening naturally if you’re genuinely enjoy the genre.

Way better my ass.

Look, I'm gonna give you a spine of reality and pray that you don't cry from this.

You, my friend, are just someone who had been too deep within the author zone to the point you've wrote so many chaps and released them already. I won't lie, I was surprised by the numbers. What unsettled me was that not many people are reading your works. If you're really doing something nice for your novels, I'm sure readers would come to check you. But no, people doesn't seem to like your works.

Now look at my recently published novel. The one on my signature with a guy typing on a hologram laptop.

It got two hundreds views and eleven readers. I haven't even posted up to ten chapters yet. You see what I mean?

It is what it is.

That's that and this is this.

I'll say this.
those writing cvabals? Are just bullies, pure and simple.
when you're young in school, and you're getting beat up by a bully.
you can take it? or you can fight back.
if you're gonna get beat up every day anyways, why not get beat up *after* you sucker punch them and kick them in the nuts.
maybe you get smacked up, but hey, its happening anyways.
you run the "risk" of they get tired of getting sucker punched, kicked where it hurts, pushed down the stairs, etc.

but I know this. "being the bigger man", all that (well intention-ed, granted) advice?
does, not, work.

anyone that played sports, knows this is true.
if the ref didn't see it, its legal.
if the other team is going to take cheap shots?
you do nothing, and they'll take your *stars* out of the game.
regardless of your personal ethics, you have no choice.
you send the goon squad in, to get them. They understand, *nothing* else.

lets analyze the situation.
the RR mods? Have decided, time and again. Its perfectly legal!
what can *anyone* say?
"Hey! You're doing what we do! No fair!"
*Pffft*

How big are these so called cabal/guilds, anyways.
they put 50 bully .5 reviewers on the field?
we'll put a hundred and fifty out.
they got 12 authors all with same genre coordinated launch?
we'll do two dozen at the same thing.

those are the rules.
they do it? because it works.
why shouldn't we benefit, like they do.
I bet we could field *more* (bigger team) than any of them can.

my theory, in any conflict.
I'll play by the rules.
but if that's how the games played?
Thanks for showing me what the real rules are.

I don't see the ethical problem.
I say, give them a taste of their own medicine.

or, maybe you like getting wedgies at school every day, maybe its fun.
but if you don;t like it?
did you ever realize... that a *group*, say.. the chess club?
you CAN all go out, and give a bully a wedgie.

we all know it shouldn't be allowed.
but? it is.
I don't understand why everyone wouldn't want on board.

every time I see an author I know from my last site, their book and name i recognize?
i give a good comment, and a good review.
that's my peeps.

(dry dead pan voice and face)
yeah.
let's all get T-shirts and ballcaps.
"I love C.O.C.K."

*sheesh*
I hit Rising Stars top 10 on RR without being part of this review swap bullshit before I deleted my novel from the site. You just need to post daily for a month and have at least 1k readers (this was a couple years ago, not sure if the algorithm's changed), but you will hit Rising Stars regardless of whether you're part of a group or not.

I hit #1 trending on Scribblehub multiple times. I do not know how, but I just posted daily and replied to almost every comment.

You don't need to be a part of any of this clique crap to hang on the front page. Just be consistent and decent.

Okay, people.

@TinaMigarlo So... Mind telling me how much did you write in a month?
Hm. right now, I'm editing all my stuff, and putting it slowly up here.
when I'm writing, I generally manage a chapter a day or so.
that's anything from 2k to 5k. depends on my work schedule, what else I'm up to IRL.
and no, I never use AI. (writing shows this)

the last book I started and was working on, I have to check the dates on the files, I guess. Hold on.
what the... all the dates are the same? oh, I copied them over. go to the thumb drive i created them on. there.
started the new book on december 23. chapter 16, says jan 7
23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 31 1 2 3 4 5 6 7
yeah. 16 days, 16 chapters. but, word counts...
5063
4868
3834
4656
3677
4989
4240
2725
5789
3168
(end part 1, 10 chapters) 37,946 words
3788
3773
4651
2728
3391
2646
(part 2, out to 6 chapters) 20,977 words so far

shit, calculator required.
58,923 words over 16 chapters in 16 days.
that's just rough draft time. but, i did some basic editing as I went. one day, maybe two chapters, next day, some more editing.

uhh... honestly i'd hate for you to pick one of my oldest novels to spot check my writing.
I'd rather give you one of my newer chapters to spot check my writing, its improved over time.

heres the prospective rough of the cover idea, for this one I gave word counts and days writing for...
BetrayalCircle8.jpg

but? Question.
what does all this, have to do with my general idea.
that we all stick together, as a team.
like lots of other groups are acting as a team.
I already admitted, I don't feel I'm good enough to "represent" us
but I got no problem with supporting my own teams writers, with love.
we all shit in the same pit. why not.

we have three choices...
we can hate and review bomb each other (retarded) (this? is what my *last* site does. Idiots.)
we can do *nothing*, which is pretty much what we do now.
we can all show each other love.

now... I ask you.
Out of three choices?
which one is the worst.(first option)
which one is the best. (last option)
which one are we doing now. (middle option)
