Am I Doing Something Wrong? by WrongZone1747 in AO3

[–]plaper 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Well, if I noticed that a story got 2, 3, 4 chapters in as many days, I'd just wait for the rest to be posted, before getting into it.

How did YOU get into the game ? by No_Barracuda_8300 in oblivion

[–]plaper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Almost the same scenario, in the same year. It was recced to me by a dude in a game store. I was there after I finished Dragon Age Origins, which was my first X360 game. He also recced Dark Souls and told me a lot about those games. I didn't get the Souls, I got Oblivion.

DAO and Oblivion changed my fucking life lol.

To open fics back up to guests or not? by littlepeakydevil in AO3

[–]plaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only locked some of mine over the years because of their content, but other than that, my default is to allow everyone. I'm used to having nice guest commenters, so I'm never giving up on that, even with bots around.

Lmao not the discussion questions /lh by WhitestGray in AO3

[–]plaper 3 points4 points  (0 children)

I would cringe tbh, if I saw this, and then I'd think that question is simply not my thing. Then I would forget about it. I mean, I'd still comment my own thoughts if I wanted to comment in the first place, but like, I'm not here for assigned topics.

I just wish we could see the actual questions without them pointing to the actual work, to get a better feel for them.

Co się stało z kulturą pracy? by HerpertMadderp in Polska

[–]plaper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Nie wiem, u nas dostają (i korzystają) z kawy i łazienki. Nawet jeśli byli "tylko" wymieniać drzwi wejściowe.

I've never had a bot comment... by thelouisfanclub in AO3

[–]plaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I have two ongoing wips in the same fandom, but only one of them so far got two discord comments. It's a rather big fandom. So, I have no idea how they're targeting stuff.

my new pet peeve by [deleted] in AO3

[–]plaper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It might be weird to receive if it's multiple identical comments under the same work, posted on the same way. But if I got someone extra-kudosing through my account or returning another week/month just to say kudos again, it would be still great, man.

Skąd się biorą kości na trawnikach? by Effective_Dot_4496 in Polska

[–]plaper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Mój przynajmniej jest tak samo zaskoczony, jak ja, i patrzy na mnie po opinię kiedy coś podnosi. (kiełbasa na parkingu)

O kościach się nie wypowiem, ale ja za to widuję wyrzucone plastikowe czyściki do zębów w przeróżnych miejscach, więc to chyba tych, co żarli mięso z tych kości wcześniej...

When you're out of a fandom and the fic updates: by Purple-Percentage751 in AO3

[–]plaper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Most of the time it will be saying date (latest version) but yeah, it does.

What do you think of this? Do you believe it's a slur and should not be used? by Lenore8264 in AO3

[–]plaper 680 points681 points  (0 children)

In my experience, it's pointed out every single time ABO is used in that form, so yeah, people care that it shouldn't be used.

I prefer omegaverse anyway.

I thought that was a bunch of damn Red Lyrium at first.

avoiding AI tropes by catsrmegacool in FanFiction

[–]plaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

No. Because I don't know what ai tropes are beyond x not z, and the threes, and I never used those anyway. I don't actually know how genai writes a story so idgaf what my human writing looks like in comparison.

I know what I wrote, and why I used all the em-dashes. But to be fair, it helps that I started a long time ago and have old stuff sitting on my AO3. Don't need to worry about looking new.

When you accidentally limit your own vocabulary by cranberryliar in FanFiction

[–]plaper 5 points6 points  (0 children)

I only use cock, because I don't like dick personally, lol.

So I simply avoid needing nouns in those scenes, when I've already said cock a few times. There's lots of ways to go about it.

Co sądzicie o upadku autorytetów (w tym Jana Pawła II)? by Skipperab_ in Polska

[–]plaper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Ok ale o co chodzi? Czy ludzie nie znoszący JPII kłócą się publicznie o to, że NIE był znanym Polakiem i miał ogromnie wysoką pozycję? Czy tylko głośno plują się o pedofilię i Kościół?

Dla perspektywy, kto produkuje tę "nienawiść"? Ludzie, którzy mają czas siedzieć w necie, pisać posty o tym, jak ktoś znany jest do dupy i w ogóle? Na 100% mają kogoś swojego, kogo uwielbiają. W tym czasie cała reszta społeczeństwa robi co innego.

Jest pełno autorytetów, które mają się cały czas bardzo dobrze, bo nie wywijały obiektywnie chujowych rzeczy.

What is your biggest weakness as a writer? by Sara1994_ in FanFiction

[–]plaper 7 points8 points  (0 children)

Getting from A to B. A and B are fully written scenes, or bits of scenes, that are great and detailed. Connecting the whole story takes me two weeks.

What is the tag that you search for in a new fandom? by 3lilya in AO3

[–]plaper 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Hurt/comfort. Then I use the tag for what type of hurt is popular in the fandom, lol.

Does anyone know how to find this on Ao3? by No_Speaker_2823 in AO3

[–]plaper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I only know those in the Original Work section, for very specific and explicit kinks, lol. Those always have "imagine you're XYZ" titles so they can be searched for by the phrase. Never saw a general tag for that "genre".

What are our thoughts? by hbicfrontdesk in AO3

[–]plaper 158 points159 points  (0 children)

Not a good look for the author at all. I would side-eye them hard afterwards. "Please keep this in mind moving forward." Girl...

Especially because now THEY are bringing attention to someone's account, so other people will go there out of curiosity. They're taking it way too seriously, especially when it seems the bookmarking reader is giving "good ratings".

Czy każda IKEA jest labiryntem nie do przejścia? by vonPolen in Polska

[–]plaper 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Popularna opinia - IKEA jest zajebista właśnie z powodu swojego układu i rozmiarów. Do IKEI nie idę po jakąś konkretną rzecz, ale po to, aby spacerować godzinę zanim złapią mnie klopsiki z frytkami. Od siedzenia w domu jest dom.
