Anon clearly addressed that time wasnt being paid for. This isn't about owing people anything: it's about having the opposite of something already in place. Kudos are used for two reasons: 1) to indicate personal approval; and 2) to give an indication to others how popular the fic is. Sometimes fics get kudos that seem to be completely off the ball, and that's what a lot of the commenters want to balance out.

.........sorry no, kudos are used for one reason: to indicate personal approval

if you want to use number of kudos as an indication of how good a fic is going to be, that's your own choice. plenty of readers don't give a fuck about the number of kudos a fic has and judge the fic by content and writing style, myself included. if you think that certain fics deserve more recognition than others, please do rec the fuck out of them and ignore the ones you don't like.

also, "and you wasted my unpaid for time" -- i was addressing the fact that the anon who posted this thinks that it was the author's fault for wasting their time. if the anon was paying other writers to churn out fic that they didn't like, that would be a completely different story. but as it stands, everyone is getting fic for free. so if reading fic is such a hardship, stop doing it.

LOL THE INJUSTICE!!!!!

so now, you can grow a brain and learn that in reality, kudos count means exactly as much as hit count when it comes to a fic's quality. Capisce?

Look at that, you're taking your first baby steps in learning how to use the internet for yourself.
