    no idea what a forum bar is, and you sound like a person that will try to get me drunk and enlist me in a 10 year contract for a royal navy. You british monarchist scum! (jk jk... or is ist?!)

    trendy bendy

    In general yes.. but paradoxically, it would quite likely give those novels shit ton of views/steady readers.. so who knows how many people would like to participate. Actually, I'm more worried it would devolve into more people trying to get the bottom spot for fun/hopefully bottom rank.

    A 'Light Novel' Tag?

    I think that instead of tag "light novel" we could add something like "pulp fiction" vs "serious fiction", or "light-hearted", maybe also "japanese-style" and "chinese-style"

    Games Finished Recently? Or Are Currently Playing?

    Loop hero, but I think I'm gonna drop it. Maybe will pick it up again when they add more speed settings- I'm about halfway through and the pacing gets bad, it also feels at some point that you are just repeating the loop to farm items, before going for the boss. Also so much luck in getting...

    art of [insert all of my writing projects]

    Yeah but notice how, while "popular kids" trope might be new, there were its equivalents in odler literature as well. - In pride and prejudice - one of the sisters was what we would call the popular kid, the protag was what we would call a step above nerdy kid in modern world, - In Crime and...

    Biggest mistakes when writing?

    It was a good suggestion, so that's what I did. Here are my notes, maybe useful to others, with my comments in (): Genre out of favor (welp, isekai it is) Broken promise - the story promised inquiry is not fulfilled The story starts in the wrong place (I’ve been wondering about doing...

    How about splitting webpage for adult stories?

    See, I think you are right. Many "smut" stories, basically use it as bait and switch, have a few sex scenes in the first chapters, and then move to the plot. But, while it's very effective to some people, there are many people that are completly turned off by the advertising and the tags and...

    Biggest mistakes when writing?

    I'm rewriting my snake novel, to finally send it to the editor. And while I'm on the subject, to avoid making a mistake I would cringe about for the rest of eternity, I'm curious what are the big mistakes one should avoid when writing. Also, if you tried reading my novel and want to say bad...

    How about splitting webpage for adult stories?

    The only problem I would have with this is novels that are 95% normal, and then single mature chapters. I think that on syosetsu or something authors solve it by creating series copy with only 18+ chapters or something, so hmm

    Not sure if Game of thrones is good comparison, but I guess if you only left tyrion, and made him handsome succesfull ladyman, than maybe? But it is a great series. Pity that appareantly the author got in some hot water in Korea, so no new volume?

    What happened to trending?

    I might have misspoke, it's more that current trending is "daily" trending, and due to simple maths, if you relase chapter everyday, you are unlikely to have unexpected spike in popularity, your graph looks like a steady growing line.

    What happened to trending?

    Tsundere necro chan. That is because trending, as is generally known I thought, strongly dislikes daily uploads. And while It's not true today, last time this discussion has been had on this forum 4/9 were smut/genderbender/girls love. But then, things do seem to have changed over the past...

    What happened to trending?

    “Smut. Gender-bender. Yuri. Isekai. Long ago, the four nations lived together in harmony. Then everything changed when the Isekai Nation attacked. Only the Smutavar, master of all four genres , could stop them. But when the world needed him most, he vanished. A hundred years passed and my...

    Trending bug. Or justice. Or evil possession.

    So, 2 things happened: a) I got on trending third time in 6 days b) I passed 666 readers. Analysing those 2 points, gives us those possible events: a) Something broke, and I got on trending, due to trending 2 days earlier. I might be wrong but I think that shouldn't happen? b) Trending got...
