Oh My God, this so much

[(Anonymous)]

I've never had a story make me angry. Some I've scoffed at to be sure. But to get angry, I'd have to forget that the back button exists.

[iceyred]

Same. But some people like getting angry.

Well too bad because this fandom game is serious and people don't have time to mess around. It's like a jungle out here, and if you want to survive you have to be like a shark, and never stop moving, or you'll be eaten alive. Like some kind of jungle shark, that gets eaten alive.

[kallanda_lee]

Yup, basically.

Text: I just want everyone to be able to write and post their stories however works best for them.

Without other people getting angry.

That will never happen, just look at all the women posting stories of their self-projects getting raped and loving it and this community getting all up in arms about it because how dare women love getting ravaged by a man.

3/10

Way too over the top

Good Hustle

[(Anonymous)]

Good effort

"Ravished"

[sabotabby]

That's lovely, anon.

[diet_poison]

o_____O that image made my eyes hurt

Live and let live is too much for some, apparently.

What are you, Buddha?

[(Anonymous)]

This is like asking for world peace or some other unrealistic horseshit.

Re: What are you, Buddha?

[(Anonymous)]

Really?

I find it a little sad that asking for people to relax and live and let live about online fiction they don't like is like asking for world peace.

[nightscale]

Man I wish, it's never going to happen, but it'd be nice.

[dreemyweird]

I think you're thinking of some pretty common sexual/narrative kinks when saying this (idk - rape kink, self-insert, things like this), but honestly, some fanfic gives people legitimate reasons to be angry. No one says these stories should not be posted, but I understand perfectly how someone would be royally pissed off at fic that condones abuse/justifies rape or murder.

[(Anonymous)]

But I like being abused and raped, why shouldn't I condone what I like?

[(Anonymous)]

Fandom is actually one of the places where people get the least mad about the really strange stuff. I mean try showing it to people IRL.

[intrigueing]

That would be great!

But you know, I would still like a few big lolarious petty wanks a year. Just for the sake of amusement and excitement and a reminder to be grateful that most of the time fandom isn't like that. Or call it a sacrifice to the fandom gods for peace the rest of the time.

[(Anonymous)]

It depends on the topic, but if the fic in question involves silly shenanigans and/or anything comedic, then why not let writers have their laughs? Fanfic isn't only limited to drama and romance.

OP

[(Anonymous)]

I meant specifically how people write and post their fics. Comments like:

"You can't post fic on tumblr, it's shit!" "You're posting in installments, you attention whore!" "You write too fast, you must be shit!" "You write too slowly, you don't care about your readers!" "You're not using a beta, you're lazy." "Why do other people use a beta, they must be terrible writers to need someone to help them lol." "Why haven't you finished this fic yet, I hate yoooou, you're only doing it for comments!" "You wrote a multi-fandom drabble series and posted it to AO3 with appropriate tags, you are the worst!"

All comments I've seen. They can get really angry.

It was interesting how most of the comments to this thread ended up being about the contents of fics.

I also agree world peace is never going to happen. Be nice if it did though.

Re: OP

[(Anonymous)]

The "not using a beta, you're being lazy" pisses me off. You know how hard it is to find a reliable beta?
