A kangaroo court is still a court unfortunately. I'm a contrarian. I ruffle feathers by nature. My only concern is simply the timeframe in which the sudden moderation is being hammered down by. And the few people undeserving affected by automated systems and such. I understand the legal...

A word of advice for you. A Writer should be judged on the merit of their of work, not on the basis of their status. I rest my case

This place acts like a circlejerk. No room for discussion. Just shitposts, reports and memes. Unilateral consensus glued together by moral incongruence. Kek

This is clearly some kind of Overton window. People on this forum have been complaining about certain stuff for years. I guess they got what they wanted. But the window keeps moving. First it targetted translations.Now fanfiction, which caused major contention here last year. If it's purely for...

Not sure if I'm answering your question directly. One of the main reasons I quit my story last year was because of perceived viewpoints and trying to cater the story to a select few individuals. That turned into a whole Frankenstein mess. I'd say instead of worrying about what they say, stick to...

well, I mean technically yes, if notice it. You can always send support tickets to the sites moderators. They'll decide what is necessary "punishment." Though it should be said there are a few authors, who write both original fiction and fanfiction and well may have a patreon specifically for...

This has been the norm since over a decade ago. It's not a zero sum game, patronage is as old stone crafting. Writing is something most people will never make a dime out of, offering exclusive content for the price of a coffee is well a small price to pay. Don't get me started on piracy, if...

If you want to get good, there is only one singular thing you can do to get the ball rolling: map out one book, and then try and finish it. There is no other way to get better but to write and get something out. Finish your first book, not your first series, but a closed group of chapters that...

Worm - Parahumans :s_tongue:

I hate to kick up a hornet's nest. I went to touch grass for a week and woke up to an entire community being dead, not to mention a whole slew of drama I missed. Anyway, kind of want to bring it up so people in this community, at least, can be aware of the book predators and the like. Because I...

Yes, mainly on RoyalRoad. God knows you can't satisfy anyone there. I do love Pyrrhic victories, passive protagonists in the first arc, and complex, toxic relationships. I get that not many people like it. On ScribbleHub, it's fine. Someone says, "Hey, I don't like this part," then they skim...

I had the "weeaboo" phase from 2013-2017. Full on school group chat anime club weeaboo. Learning japanese in math class, weeaboo. Obsessed with becoming a "mangaka." The dream was to go to Japan and work for a company like shonen jump. It took a few, once a gaijin, always a gaijin discourse to...

They're out doing aussie things. Catching mutant spiders, boxing wild kangaroo's, unearthing unholy eldritch monsters in the outback.

Yuri NTR? I didn't know I needed this. Thank you kitty :blobreading:This is actually perfect inspiration for an arc I need to write.

I'm a contrarian, so I'll argue from the opposite perspective This is about moral ambiguity and subversion, isn't it. Well, I disagree wholeheartedly. That anything should be anything. In real life, the good guys rarely win, people make the argument in this case, that fiction should be an...

hmm. What to do in a prank chapter. Kill off a love interest, maybe traumatize the protagonist.

I stopped playing after review bomb saga. I just couldn't keep playing that game, I think I wasted thousands of hours and like 400 usd on that game. Just to be stuck in four tech trees. It's no longer enjoyable. SL was never the Issue for me, the lack of RP was. Instead, I play cursed tank...

I know I'll get hate for this, but I just can't bring myself to like slop like Solo Leveling. I don't get how people enjoy such superficial stuff. "Ooohhh, he has AURA!" There's zero nuance, zero critical depth, no message. Just pure, unadulterated protagonist wanking. At least most Japanese...

rationalist fiction of every kind. I just can't go full intellectual mode for a 100 000 words, It's hard enough to write a complex story, now you have to write a protagonist that thinks like a human calculator too. It's pretty tough.
