Man, my brain just goes to a mental image of the author going "FEED MY EGO! GIVE ME SQUEE AND COMMENTS AND KUDOS!" Wait, is this the new version of "I'm not posting the next chapter until I get X number of comments"??

LOL!

Good question. It honestly wouldn't surprise me if that were the case. I really don't understand people wanting their entire reader base deciding how they should write a story and where they should take it. It reminds me of the fans who harass TV show writers and tell them how to write and run their show.

Not knocking collaboration in and of itself, mind, that can be lots of fun and it's a great way for fans to further bond and connect over the canon they're into. But generally when people want to collaborate on a fic, they just stick with one or two specific people who they feel best click with them in terms of writing style/understanding of the characters/similar wavelengths with their ideas/etc. They don't just ask any random person who happens to comment on a fic where they should take the story next.

To each their own, though, I suppose.

DA - I agree that's just... weird and sounds stressful. I mean I've occasionally gotten a comment that's speculating if something would happen and I've decided it was a good idea and incorporated it into the fic in some way.

Usually not specific though, like if I was planning for the characters to just skip on from point A to B, but someone commented with something like "I hope they make it to B ok!" I might get the idea for some sort of something to go wrong between A and B like dealing with a flat tire and adding in some character development, or fun dialogue, or something else.
