Re: Mild tangent based on one point here

[(Anonymous)]

I mean, you're not wrong! I've seen it both ways - rando 1 says it's inflating the comment count to make people click on it, rando 2 says nah and it's a silly thing to get bent out of shape over. I usually don't care but you can't always help that creeping thought in the back of your head.

ヾ(・ω・')ノヾ( ́・ω・)ノ ゙ I get the feeling of constantly worrying about others' judgment, my thought weasels just nag me about different things, lol.

But personally, I think anyone who sees it as any kind of deliberate trickery on the part of the author needs to get over themselves and find a better metric to judge fics by.

Like, no, rando 1, the author isn't "making" anyone click on their fic. You're choosing to click into fics primarily based on a metric that has little to do with anything but the extent of discussion, which can be positive or negative. You don't know if those twenty comments are active readers making thoughtful analyses and predictions, a bunch of kids spamming generic praise and rudely demanding updates, or nitpickers who thought the grammar, characterization, and premise were so atrocious they had to tell the author.
