Re: Fanfiction Appreciation Day

[philstar22]

Wait, 50 comments and 300 kudos aren't enough? I'm happy if I have 10 kudos and/or one comment on a fic.

OP
Yeah, she's gotten called out on that. She keeps saying that she picked a popular fic for the example (I don't know why). It really feels like she is utterly clueless about how small the feedback really is for small fandoms/pairings/etc. Which makes me side-eye this day because it's not going to help authors like you - it's just going to give the BNFs more praise.

Yes, because 4k hits and that may mean 700 readers (their own numbers, again) so that means there's 400 that were so ungrateful they didn't even leave kudos!

Re: Fanfiction Appreciation Day

[philstar22]

That's ridiculous. Hits have nothing to do with how many people actually read. Someone may have clicked and then backbuttoned. Also sometimes I read things many times. And also you can't give kudos for the same fic more than once, so if there are multiple chapters of course there will be more hits than Kudos.

Re: Fanfiction Appreciation Day

[(Anonymous)]

To be fair, at least they didn't assume all hits are from readers, but their imaginary estimated number of readers is still baseless and doesn't take into account all the factors you mentioned (and others, like not having time to read the full story/chapter and coming back another day, which means another hit from the same reader, etc.).

There may be invisible readers that never even send kudos, sure, but if I were them I would focus on all the response they do get instead.

Re: Fanfiction Appreciation Day

And those who don't kudos are likely more than made up for by those of us who don't have accounts and can't ever remember if we kudosed the last time so we do it again.
