    Is It Problematic Using Modern Names For Ancient Sites?

    if you're wanting some authenticity, use the historical names where available and maybe have the modern names in footnotes (which im pretty sure SH has a function for). If you dont care so much then just go all modern which seems to be the plan and would be easier on readers.

    Banned from leaving a review

    THIS, THIS, THIS SOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH THIS. A review is one thing, where criticism can be expected, but it sounds like OP was trying to preach about what they wanted from the story and how the story didnt meet their demands and expectations all while regurgitating all of this into (i presume)...

    Offline Reading

    i use a basic compiler i found on github to turn them into PDFs (other formats can be made as well). it's very barebones but it works a treat.

    Novel Suggestion: I Became the Little Sister of a Hero, so What?

    i'd read this if it was yuri, especially if it was yuri smut and/or yuri harem. :blobthumbsup: :blob_sir: :blob_sir:

    Is anyone following the situation with Gamestop?

    last time i checked, which was (admittedly) yesterday my time (or maybe today), gamestop had peaked at US$347.51 and is still at almost US$200 a share despite 2 online brokerage platforms pulling shenanigans to block retail traders from certain stocks (and calling govt attention down on...

    Is anyone following the situation with Gamestop?

    I like that analogy. really does simplify things :blobthumbsup: Ok, having just read up a little on this... i find this to be some funny shit. For those not willing to research further, a very simplistic version is this: Short sellers: We're gonna bomb gamestop stock because we're better than...

    You have deleted chapters or series in your bookmarks?

    Sometimes i find them when i do housekeeping on my lists, though most of the time deleted novels are on my shit list or on my hiatus list. i think my biggest single batch of deletions was about 8 at once.

    Scribble Hub Turns Two!

    those are some pretty impressive stats for our little community. doubling average daily page views and increasing daily chapter comments by ~75% in a year shows the growth that SH has had occur.

    Why do many authors use covers that they got from Google?

    because not everybody has the cash to commission art or the skills to make quality art? plus i doubt SH or any members would get slammed with copyright as long as they dont legit publish their novels with borrowed art. it'd be just faster to ask them to remove the image. not to mention that i...

    GameLits and Guns

    yeah, this. unless you're making projectile weapons obsolete, the issue becomes that of reacting to the user of the projectile weapons and not the projectiles themselves. Even if the brain is advanced enough to keep up with the speed of projectiles, it doesnt mean much if the body cant match or...

    Villainess nobles genre but the main pov is the male protagonist.

    there's one on NU where the protag is the villainess's fiance who transmigrated in and always loved the villainess character. It's quite the semi-deconstruction of the genre from an uncommon point of view with a lot of fluff and some crazy plot twists and turns.

    So does this site not have any actual content moderation?

    it's not so much a failing of the law as it is the law is functionally vague when it comes to completely fictional artwork/etc as opposed to stuff based on real children. It's the balance between krieg on child porn and freedom of expression through art. That's why the few cases involving legit...

    Can positivity be toxic?

    like all the "fat acceptance movement" crap telling people that 'it's ok to be morbidly, unhealthily obese because it's your body and people who think you should lose weight are evil and discriminatory'. like...

    Guide to delete my novel?

    Uh, ok..... first time i've seen someone complain and rage quit over rather.... normal ratings and just 2 of them at that. I'm with cupcake on this one. someone who ragequits over this trivial an issue probably isnt worth the effort to try and keep around.

    Gay harem

    there's a fair few GL harems on SH floating around. As for BL harems..... you'll have to consult one of those bent ones who cultivate the dao of BL.

    If you were to redesign something people deem important but is terribly inefficient, what would it be?

    and yet even the british caved long ago and started using metric for most things. so i guess it's more a question of why the US is one of only 3 countries that still uses the imperial measurements practically exclusively.

    Why is every almost fantasy adventure story with a female MC gender bender?

    When i ponder a story idea, i have one hard rule: no GB. I write (shabby) GL but i always have the character(s) born as and always have been women. I find GB to be a very tough thing to write if you're not going the cliche lighthearted comedic route unless you have experience of the realities of...
