• A notice about Rule 3 regarding sites hosting pirated/unauthorized content has been made. Please see here for details.
  • Staff is working to deal with the problem of synonymous tags. See here for more information and to suggest tag mergers.
  • Due to issues with external spam filters, QQ is currently unable to send any mail to Microsoft E-mail addresses. This includes any account at live.com, hotmail.com or msn.com. Signing up to the forum with one of these addresses will result in your verification E-mail never arriving. For best results, please use a different E-mail provider for your QQ address.
  • For prospective new members, a word of warning: don't use common names like Dennis, Simon, or Kenny if you decide to create an account. Spammers have used them all before you and gotten those names flagged in the anti-spam databases. Your account registration will be rejected because of it.
  • Since it has happened MULTIPLE times now, I want to be very clear about this. You do not get to abandon an account and create a new one. You do not get to pass an account to someone else and create a new one. If you do so anyway, you will be banned for creating sockpuppets.
  • Due to the actions of particularly persistent spammers and trolls, we will be banning disposable email addresses from today onward.

    People are using AI but not disclosing it. How do you detect it ?

    Give examples of a hypothetical, subjective idea, based on a combination of my own opinion and a thing you have not actually done yet not working...? Pointing to your writing isn't going to work. People already have a hard time telling Ai and not Ai writing apart. So if you tag it as Ai and...

    See, the thing is, I don't really think you were trying to be funny.

    People are using AI but not disclosing it. How do you detect it ?

    I mean, that's just the rules of how the forum works. If an OP wants to ask for their thread to be locked, they can. I don't particularly feel they deserve mockery for it either. As I understand it, the OP is welcome to ask for the mods to lock the thread at any time. The mods are not...

    People are using AI but not disclosing it. How do you detect it ?

    I believe the OP is allowed to ask for their thread to be locked. If anyone wants to continue the debate in the form it became, they're probably more than welcome to just make their own thread for it.

    People are allowed to ask for their own space for their stuff. That's neither weird nor bad.

    Or maybe treating people equally means actually treating them equally and letting both sides have their own space? Just maybe...?

    People are using AI but not disclosing it. How do you detect it ?

    That's their choice then, as are the consequences when and if they get caught doing it. But that doesn't mean that people who want AI free stories shouldn't get their own tag, and it doesn't mean that smuggling AI stories within a tag specifically dedicated to not having them is not kind of a...

    People are using AI but not disclosing it. How do you detect it ?

    To confirm, I don't think there is shame in someone not tagging their story ''Ai Free'' even if it is. I think that plenty of writers would do that, even either because they don't feel like making a big deal out of it or because they don't care about the AI stuff and don't want to get drawn in...

    People are using AI but not disclosing it. How do you detect it ?

    That bit is understandable, yeah, but why then do you take that and use it to punish others? The other people you're tricking have nothing to do with those rules, pointless or not. Not only have they never even argued with you, they don't even know who you are. So why is it okay for you to...

    People are using AI but not disclosing it. How do you detect it ?

    I get where you're coming from, but the issue is, to me at least, wanting to give the tag a middle finger can read as the same as wanting to trick people into consuming something they're specifically setting out not to consume. That still pings as a dick move, you know? You can do it. It's your...

    People are using AI but not disclosing it. How do you detect it ?

    And then when they get called out for it, it will be a bigger blow to their readerbase because readers who click on an explicitly AI-free story want it to be Ai-free. If the author advertises it as that and it's not, they have actively, deliberately and intentionally lied to their readers. That...

    People are using AI but not disclosing it. How do you detect it ?

    I don't think that would work as well as you suspect. If you pull the AI card and then go ''Wait, no, I was joking guys, this isn't AI generated I swear. For reals.'' Quite a lot of people will not, in fact, believe you even if your writing style is radically different. All you'll get by saying...

    People are using AI but not disclosing it. How do you detect it ?

    True, but less people than you might think. Saying that you're AI free when you're not is an active lie. It requires you to intentionally take action so as to decieve. Simply not declaring yourself Ai is a passive lie. You don't actually have to do anything - it's much easier to justify to...

    People are using AI but not disclosing it. How do you detect it ?

    Okay, but who decides what comes from an LLM? Who has permission to decide who gets to be mocked? Who are you willing to give so much power that they can point to any one of us who dares to post their own content and go ''You! You are an officially sanctioned Bad Person and I give everyone the...

    What’s the difference between criticizing and straight up bullying an author on these forums (SB, QQ, SV, etc)?

    Personal attacks and persistence. Personal attacks are the obvious ones - when you start to sling shit at someone for who or what they are rather than what they're doing or writing it becomes clear your goal isn't actually to criticise than it is to have a shield to be nasty to them without...
