    Have you had satisfactory romantic relationships in life?

    For efficiency's sake, I have decided to merge my Forever Alone Gang membership into my Procrastination Gang membership, the meeting for which is tomorrow. As such, I'm unfortunately not going to attend this time.

    Recommendations Monster novels

    That's... actually, I don't think I have ever seen a monster reincarnation novel that is not some shade of LitRPG :blob_hmm_two: The closest that I know, at least of the ones worth mentioning, is probably An Unwilling Monster. Everything else I know in this actegory is LitRPG and/or abandoned.

    What do you guys think about tax (as a concept )

    Some might say taxation is theft, taxes should not exist and whatnot, but those poeple ignore one major issue with that view - without taxes, you would have little to no public infrastructure or services. No asphalt roads, no running water (including the pipes to your home), no firefighters or...

    Curing a harem member's vampirism...?

    Clavicus Vile had a solid cure for Vampirism. It was called the Dragonborn.

    Fantasy?

    You're not wrong, but there still clearly are people who enjoy a good conventional fantasy, and there are good novels in that category to be found here.

    Fantasy?

    I certainly prefer a regular fantasy that's not harem, isekai, litrpg or anything like that. But in terms of sheer numbers, the top of the charts here is dominated by just that - harem, isekai, litrpg, smut...

    What is the policy of real life religions of imitating godhood?

    With western religions, sure, Abrahamic religions are mostly out by their very nature (a single allmighty god and all that), but you have many possible choices, of which Norse/Germanic and Greek mythologies are only the more famous ones. But there were also Slavic and Celtic paganism, then...

    How many works had you seen using the measuring unit Yard?

    I did see it used in some novels, one of which was a Chinese derivative of WoW - since WoW uses yards to denote skill ranges, it was a convenient unit to use for distances there. Personally I don't like when authors do this. Why reinvent the wheel? I don't go into novels to grapple with...

    Where would you pick if you could take a month-long vacation in one of these places?

    None of those would be a good choice without the ability to blend in and/or survive - either through your own knowledge and preparation, or whatever power grants you this vacation. Should that not be a concern, Ancient Rome, Ancient Greece and Ancient China were the pinacle of civilization of...

    Funny RPG Trait?

    Pernament stat boost - or any reliable pernament boost - is a bad idea. All it would do is create a joke race full of people who are drunk all year round from the moment they are able to drink until they max out their stats (unless, as others said, a single point is meaningless in the grand...

    How much real-world science from things like biology physics and chemistry should be brought into fantasy worlds?

    Personally, I don't care much if magic can ignore real-world science, but there's a point where it breaks suspension of disbelief. An example of such a point are commonly System stories, notably HP values combined with rigid damage system. If I lop off your head, you're dead, I don't care that...

    What do you think about average reading comprehension

    In my opinion there are two factors to this - reading comprehension, which I'm not going to claim is particularly high in some circles, and reading retention. By which I mean those commenters might have read all the things you are pointing out, but they do not retain that information between...

    Resolved My fanfiction don't show on the site

    It appears the fanfictions have been found to be and reported as translations. Translations are not allowed on this site, unless you are the author (and from the sheer number of chapters you are putting out, I highly doubt you are), and so they are hidden. They can be accessed, but cannot appear...
