What are your most hated fanfic tropes
Ooh, burrrrnnn~ Really though, to fix isekai it has to be written by someone who isn't retarded. But it's difficult to find a non-retarded person who wants to write isekai (tongue in cheek, I'm planning to write one eventually). I mean anything that acts on the internet but is not human. It's... -
What are your most hated fanfic tropes
Bots making slop for other bots to consume, is my guess. If there's money in it, someone will pay for it. The invisible hand of the free market at work. (for all the gifs of Earl Ragnar, I can never find one of him wobbling his head in a check-out moment like I remember so well) -
Thanks. I don't normally do undead scenes, so there aren't any others like it.

How hard would it be to implement like a zerg rush onto a forum?
My words (word, singular) exactly before I scrolled down to read them (it). (no, gif creator, it came from a stupid meme in the early 2000s that I was alive for. He responds with "Goyo!!!" - "Ayaaa!!!", and they have a shonen anime staring contest until one of them has his head explode)- Words: 52

How would an IRL Government/Military/Police force deal with a brand new reality warper?
Is this a world where other reality warpers have appeared in the past, or is this character the first anyone has ever seen? Also what's a reality warper? Is that something like a modern day wizard? He can do magic? I would couch everything in OODA loops. Observe, Orient, Decide, Act. So they... -
Need help fleshing out a power I want to introduce in a fic.
Another way to reimagine it is to have the points only applicable within the domain of magic, where it becomes a bit like managing a starship's power distribution between shields, weapons, engines, etc. To avoid losing track of the math you can simplify it as percentages rather than absolute... -
General anti-censorship thread. Focus on fiction and lewd content.
"No politics" is a band-aid that slows the decline (by shutting down agitators) but it doesn't solve the problem. The fundamental problem is in the game theory of social organization. Let's say there are two general strategies in life: I can maximize short term gain at the cost of setting up a... -
Starting advice for writing?
The way I got started was to write with other people on forums. I was originally doing D&D type stories with a group of other writers. These were very easy to get into, because all I had to think about was one character. At the most basic level it was just: what does he look like and how does he... -
American presidential succession
I have no idea what their constitution says, but if I were designing it, probably the military would take over in the interim until new elections could be organized. If everyone is all killed at once, it's a military emergency anyways. But it could also be the case that the federal government... -
Potential Rule 8 Question: Regarding the Recent Anti-NSFW Content Bans...
I'd say it's gonna depend on how much start-up capital they have access to. If they don't have enough, their competitors might just try to bury them in legal costs until they go bankrupt. They could also run a smear campaign where they associate in people's minds the name of the new card with...- Words: 140

Tags shown in thread lists becoming increasingly useless
As far as I understand it, tags are only for filtering/searching. Important information that tells you what the story is about should be put in the summary that you see when you hover over a thread. And often, the setting is identified in the title. But yes, letting the author choose which 3...- Words: 74

Censorship by Payment Processors
That's what I said. The people who would want to go to war over it don't have the numbers or access to levers of power. If one of them tried something, he would just be laughed at as some wacko terrorist. If a group of them coordinated together and started something, they'd be crushed, and then... -
Censorship by Payment Processors
I don't think anyone is really going to go to war over the right to make smutty adaptations of underaged waifus, and that's the point. It's just a new way to kick people in the face, knowing you're not going to do anything about it, because you can't, you don't have the numbers, or access to any... -
Censorship by Payment Processors
I thought SubscribeStar had gotten around censorship originally by using a Russian payment processor that was used for porn. Did that one get captured too? -
How do I know when I’m asking for validation?
First consider if you already know the answer to the question you're about to ask. Or, you have at least 80% confidence in the answer. If yes, then your reason for asking the question is not to learn the answer, but to confirm what you already suspected, or just to hear someone else say it. A...
