You mean you don't stalk your readers? Gasp

How do you view the profiles of your viewers/readers because it doesn't give me the option to do it.

My "friend" told me you look at statistics page, and your readers will be right there. You didn't hear this from me...

I think it's a grave mistake to focus on the opinion of these haters, I get it that your story getting underrated might be slightly frustrating. However.... is it really worth it? Wasting a single second because of their nonsense is your own loss.
Take it from a master procrastinator, give it no mind at all and focus on interesting matters instead.
Then once you decide to keep-on writing, just give it your best.

Unless you broke one of the sites rules, it's better to just ignore all your 1 star ratings and reviews. People have a bad day? Boom, 1 star. People think there are too many stories with the same tags? Boom, 1 star. People think your story should have something it doesn't? Boom, 1 star. Your story is higher rated than their favorite? That's another 1 star. Doing anything can get you another 1 star, so worrying about them will just stress you out and make it harder to write. I've found the overall rating has almost no effect on daily views and readers anyway.

Yet, there are a few nut jobs who come in, try to justify morality, drop a few moral comments, and drop a few bad ratings before going out

I didn't just add the tags, also added a disclaimer right at the first line of the synopsis. I even added disclaimer even on the a few chapters that had gore and r-thing. What else can I do more? I think this is a serial offender.

Ah, then nothing that can be done about that 1-star then, sorry to presume you hadn't tried disclaimers. I think Empyrea is right about this in general.

I will note that you can delete comments from your chapters-- maybe you already knew this, but I didn't know this until someone else told me, so I'll mention just in case you also missed it.

It's like reading a review of someone who never plays video games trying to tell me street fighter is bad because he can't do a combo.

I feel called out. Street fighter...shudders.

Maybe add a disclaimer chapter at the start of the story?

Lowkey though, disclaimers at the start of a story/chapter are cringe. If the reader doesn't look at the tags and he gets butthurt about what he finds within the text, that's kinda his fault.

I really want your attitude. You are the GOD.

Rakitan does not consider herself a God,

That's not disabling their accounts. That's denying everyone access to view their account. And by the look of you trying to go through their profiles, I think they made a good call

I do agree stalking readers is very common, especially to thank them, see how the comments they write to you compare to how they write to other authors, to check their reading lists and personality on front page.


I would say the author is happier here by knowing what kind of reader to block.


It is always cringe to dunk on an entire genre

It does feel way too edgy to start off every chapter like that

The CEO of cringe has spoken. No truer words were said.

Personally, I'd rather overwarn than underwarn, especially for a disclaimer chapter at the start-- disclaimers are so easy to skip if you don't wanna read them, but are a heads up there might be some intense stuff.

...and also Scribblehub just simply doesn't have tags for some stuff, so very useful for that purpose.

I dunno if I'd tag at the start of a chapter unless it was something seriously out of line with the rest of the story/tags, though.
