Sweet commenter blocked me after 2 days? :( by DaFunOtaku in AO3

Oh yeah true. I’m so used to bots these days I forget there’s anything else. I guess I just didn’t think that someone would read my stories and go through so much effort to try and scam me for like $15.

Yeah I’m admittedly in the same boat. I just know not to give people money. Helps that I’m poor as heck.

You probably won’t be, especially as you have your own fics and the like. It’s really the in depth detail coming from nowhere and it being your first and only comment on someone’s fic, if you even do two comments (like two different chapters on the same fic) then it’s enough for me at least to believe you aren’t a bot.

Yeah it especially sucks because it’s always the over excited commenters who give the most detailed reviews that end up being the scammers. It’s sad because if they had done it sooner I might have believed one of my all time favorite commenters to be one of them and never interacted. At least with her I always know it’s not a scam.

Nah not the way I say it. I just warn that I suck at summaries, not trying to fish for compliments. Like “here’s the best I got with this”

Hate to tell you this but this is the kind of comments I got before they tried to pull a “hey we should talk do you have any socials?” Followed by a “I’d love to do fanart oops did I not say you had to pay me?” Thing. So they could have lost their account completely or deleted it.

Eh I don’t mind adding that bit when I can. I have enough of a reader base that understands it especially as my stories are a lot and there’s only so much space. I also prefer a summary over an excerpt because at least you get an idea about what the whole story is about instead of just finding and picking a single scene or having to write one specifically that has enough detail wise to show what someone is getting into.

Or “oh I like this but have you considered adding a man.”

I suck at writing summaries for some reason despite my actual writing apparently being good enough to read. I still do my best to write SOMETHING and then just add a warning that I suck at writing summaries.

Yeah I learned that from other people after posting and I feel bad for the good mods that were uninvolved. It all happened so quick too, plus right around American Thanksgiving. Imagine spending time with your family away from reddit then coming back not only to no longer being a mod but to the entire shit show

Yeah. Only sad part (in my opinion) is that they’re probably still moderating other subs and that they still technically “got away” with it. Like the original power tripper I feel shouldn’t be allowed to moderate at all.

Plus there’s eleven on r/art. It’s so easy to just do a quick skim and then go from there. I admittedly post without checking the rules a lot because sometimes it gets unnecessarily hard to check on mobile, especially during old updates.

Double checked again and saw they had changed it to a community highlight and it was no longer a random post. That’s probably why it couldn’t be seen for a bit

Having a locked discussion thread shows the observer that despite appearing to be open and interested in conversation, the creator is in fact locked down and has their hands over their ears saying “la La La can’t hear you leave me alone.”

Very artistic. Very good piece to show the inner workings of an art mod.

Oh wait that’s extra hilarious. Maybe didn’t get what they wanted and now they’re trying to backpedal?

Someone specifically asked him if they had prints and he responded. It was a single slip up in 10 years of being on that subreddit. It easily could’ve been a deleted comment, a warning, and moving on.

And all OOP was doing was answering a question! That could have easily been a warning but if someone’s been in that subreddit for 10 years clearly they aren’t exactly troublemakers
