uggggh I am so irrationally angry when I see people tagging on AO3 like it's tumblr. JUST STOP.

But it's true that it's also a good indicator of what NOT to read.

[kaijinscendre]

Ooh. Let me show you!

Someone tagging things NOT in the fic (this was a GoT fic) so they are in more tags people search.

[anonymouslyyours]

What. Who thinks this is a good idea. I want to leave a note saying 'you tag like an asshole' on their windshield. >:(

[(Anonymous)]

I'm glad they made sure to tag the fic with "Non-insestual relationship". That was really important.

[thene]

As was 'sex', apparently.

[deadtree]

oooooh wait you mean they're tagging popular stuff just to... get more hits I guess? What the actual fuck were they thinking?!

[kaijinscendre]

yup!

[fingalsanteater]

I see this ALL THE TIME. See it on tumblr too.

[(Anonymous)]

This is exactly the kind of fic I skip right past, without even a pause for consideration.

The more tags something has on AO3, the more likely I am to never ever click it.

[kaijinscendre]

I skimmed it just to see if the other characters were in it. Did not see them.

[(Anonymous)]

Don't suppose we could sue them for false advertising...?

*sigh*

[kaijinscendre]

WE CAN TRY!

[silverr]

Actually, that one at least has a good percentage of -- well, not "canonical" tags, but pre-defined standard ones.

I've seen more than one drabble tagged with so many "editorial comment" type tags that the sum of the tag wordcount is higher than the fic wordcount.

[kaijinscendre]

I prefer those to lies! At least when I am looking up my Erik/Charles fic on mobile I don't have to scroll through that bastard every time. :(

[(Anonymous)]

I honestly don't see how this could possibly work to their benefit.

The likelyhood that there will be a large market for fics of all of these fandoms in a oneshot fic is probably...slim at best.

[(Anonymous)]

Woah, it has rape/non-con but also rape/non-con ELEMENTS! Very intriguing.

[angst]

Is it possible to report that bullshit? Jeez, even eBay doesn't allow keyword abuse.
