  • 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.

  • 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.

First day user. I looked around and couldn't find a QA section for a crossposting question: If I crosspost a longfic from ao3 (100k words, 40 chapters) what is the general ballpark for acceptable post frequency?

Basically, is posting one chapter a day too much?

People can post story posts as fast as they want.
 
I noticed that most crossposted fics that have all of their current chapters posted at once tend to have less discussions with tue exception of a few outliers.

🤔
 
I really don't see a point in posting a bunch of chapters a day unless you are hitting the character limit per post or moving/posting a mostly finished fic in one go.
TBF a chapter every few days would be more comfortable for the readers and get you more readers.
