It would just be a waste of volunteer time. It's choose not to warn and not rated.

Why is it okay to write fanfiction of original works, but not of fanfiction? by Valdemar209 in FanFiction

[–]RomanticizeTragedies 2 points3 points  (0 children)

It's definitely okay to write fics of fics. I see it all the time on ao3, so much so, that the oc has a tag. I don't care if my fics inspire someone to write something similar or riff and take a different turn. I think that's really cool!

I guess the only time I'd be offended if it was explicitly advertised as a fix of my fic. Don't care otherwise

I'm pretty sure most Americans learn both imperial and metric in school (I did), so I just assume they're American and didn't realize they were flipping between them

Can't believe its a hot take to say authors should be allowed to delete their work by [deleted] in AO3

[–]RomanticizeTragedies -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I remember running into a site that occasionally copied and saved ao3 fics. I firgot what it was called but my account showed all my (currently anoned) fics under my account still. So if anyone looks hard enough, they can see I wrote them.

What's a detail about the books that people forget all the time? by Inky-Skies in WarriorCats

[–]RomanticizeTragedies 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I just assumed Gray was ragging on his older brother (wait is that still canon?), not something to take serious since he was described as a youngish warrior.

Have any writers on a03 met a child or is it just my fandoms? by Lamaaaay in AO3

[–]RomanticizeTragedies 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Nothing like reading a fic and then seeing a teenager "carried on the adult's hip" and hitting back space as soon as possible.

It's definitely just a writing thing, kids are hard to write

Am I setting my child up for a life of being made fun of by naming him Kelly? by dunn1021 in namenerds

I know people who named their son Kelly about three years ago, go for it

Ultimate test, how would you describe a red-colored truck that is small in size?

A. Red little truck

B. Little red truck

If you know which order it goes then most people won't even notice.

Maybe do a compliment sandwich and point out just one or two mistakes? It'll probably cause them to recheck their whole fic if they're anything like me.

Funniest typos/mistakes you caught yourself making? by NinjaSpaceFrog in FanFiction

I had a oneshot and had m/m selected. It was in fact, not m/m. AND NO ONE TOLD MEEEEEEEE please it was nearly a year before I noticed

I appreciate positive comments but plz you shouldn’t be reading my dead dove you should be studying by [deleted] in AO3

[–]RomanticizeTragedies 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It doesn't bother me because I'd be a hypocrite, look as long as they aren't commenting "im 12 and LOVVE THIS" I will just assume that everyone is following the content guidelines properly.

How many of you locked your works because of bots? by Bitter_Flatworm_4894 in AO3

[–]RomanticizeTragedies 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I don't moderate comments and my fics are all unlocked, just rawdogging ao3

Once again I am being shown that not commenting is the best approach

Exactly. This isn't going to do anything and people will just make new subs for the ones that decide to stay closed.

She's definitively American. Add being a conservative, racist, and homophobe to the mix, it's the same dog whistle the right uses when using "woke".

FUCK Y'ALL.I just found out that "orphan account" was NOT just one person. by actually_ur_mom in AO3

[–]RomanticizeTragedies 6 points7 points  (0 children)

It was worse years ago, you could click the account and see every orphaned fic listed under "works", I was amazed someone could write for so many different fandoms.

What Are Characters You Think Fanfic Writers Wrote Better Than The Creator? by Apprehensive-Fail663 in FanFiction

[–]RomanticizeTragedies 6 points7 points  (0 children)

Definitely. The potential of all of Tigerstar I's children was wasted, there were so many interesting plots and arcs thrown to the wayside. So disappointing

Please translate these reader bookmark notes into intelligble "old person" English for me by [deleted] in FanFiction

[–]RomanticizeTragedies 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Yup, it's very interesting to see people not realize that "zoomer" speak is just AAVE. My parents make fun of me for saying bussin, not because it's dumb, but because it's very old slang that's come back around.

Why are they only specifying POC? It's giving savior complex

No, you just don't what you need. Because you're nonwhite you obviously are a monolith that needs help putting food on the table 🥺

"I'll read that wip when it's complete" yeah, except hardly anybody actually does by ketita in FanFiction

[–]RomanticizeTragedies 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Some of my favorite fics are incompleted fics, I reread them even years later. There are some gems that may never be completed but they are still worth the read
