    Popular Story

    I'm not a fan, and the Internet loves to hate on Twilight, but considering the number of sales (100 million+) of the books and tickets for the movies, there is no metric I can think of by which it can't be described as well-liked.

    Car People

    I'm with you. I just don't get car enthusiasm. I like them for getting me from A to B. Sure, some are pretty to look at and some have features I would like, but to me they are just tools. I knew a guy who would swap cars every year or two, sometimes twice in the same year if the one he got...

    Do you ever get one star ratings?

    To be fair, RR doesn't have such a restriction. All you have to do is open up a chapter and you can immediately rate it. There is no way to gauge whether the person has read it or not. Agreed. Ratings can be a nice 'pat on the back' sort of thing, but really reviews are what matters where you...

    Do you ever get one star ratings?

    If by 'read' you mean open up a chapter and then hit the back button so you can leave a rating, sure. There is no minimum time spent. I just checked it with a story I'd never touched. Opened one chap, hit the back button, boom...able to leave a rating.

    How much is anime novel worth? 245 readers.

    Holy Cow (or...sheep?). Dear god, why? How?

    Do you ever get one star ratings?

    I don't believe that is the case. I'm pretty sure there is no requirement to leave a rating (unless I've missed an update?). Over on RR I have been hit with a 0.5 and a 1 star with no commentary...so...woo? I really believe there should be no anonymous ratings. I understand why there is, but I...

    Predictions about the world.

    I would love it if this were to come true. This isn't really a prediction, it's already been stated. The vaccines we have now don't create sterilized immunity, which is what we would need to only take it once. Very few vaccines work this way, sadly. It's the holy grail of vaccine research.

    Minimum Requirements for LitRPG/Isekai

    Thanks for that! I was thinking of having some system mechanics, but not all the time. Like the MC works under the impact of the system without the rest of the world really working that way was my plot thought.

    Isekai with Superheroes

    Well, I wouldn't know as it's not the genre I have the most familiarity with. However, when I say superhero, I'm talking about capes and masks style superheroes, not 'really powerful person' superheroes.

    Since I have no idea what mahou shoujo is, I can't say! :blob_whistle:

    Minimum Requirements for LitRPG/Isekai

    I've been mulling over writing a story that would be and Isekai with some litRpg elements. But as these are both new genres for me, I'm curious as to what are the requirements to belong in those genres? How much 'system' does a litRpg need to show to qualify? Do you have to have a working set of...

    Long Title Names That Exist Commonly Nowadays

    Thank you! The titles have been driving me insane. I'm glad to know there is a reason for them.

    Would you step into a... Transporter/Suicide Booth?

    Depends. If they work the way they actually work in the properties, which is to say that they allow you to exist in two places simultaneously, then yes. Granted, different writers have over the course of the shows (especially Star Trek) screwed up the idea. But if it works like the internet...

    is anyone active on this website????

    I think it would be stretching the definition of the Harem genre a great deal to include series where there is a lot of sex or a love triangle. Like, I wouldn't give Harem nearly that much credit. Yes, the wish-fulfillment is certainly always a part of fiction, and part of wish fulfillment is...

    is anyone active on this website????

    Honestly? I have no idea. I have no interest in Harem, though I realize I am in the minority here on SH. I guess the escapist, power fantasy is a huge draw for some people. Why it's more popular than normal genres though? No clue. I mean, I suppose it could be because while there are plenty of...
