Was today years old when I found out there are authors who deliberately don’t use proper tags and turns off comments to prevent users from talking about it. Never been grateful for the block and mute option

It’s definitely more of a wattpad behavior, but I’ve seen it in a few of my bigger fandoms

Nah cuz it’s fucking annoying. Ao3 gives you the freedom to let out your creative juices, but why tf are you deliberately being an asshole? I’m a big fan of scrolling if something bothers me, but it’s moments like these that I wish you could report someone on ao3. Authors have the freedom to write what they want, but readers also have the freedom to filter through what they like/dislike.

‘Creator chose not to use any archive warnings’, ‘general audience’ for content rating, “this fic is part of my recent series, gi check out the series you guys!” For summary, character tags are about 10max with approximately 7 being character names and pairings, last 3 are some casual tags. Enter the fic, first chapter already giving wattpad air. Second chapter, smacked in the balls by gangrape

Holy shit! Is it that they don’t know how to tag or what to tag??? Or don’t know how Ao3 functions???

Oh this is some bullshit! Yeah no… I would skip that author from now on. I’ve never stumbled across this, thankfully, so I don’t know what else to do except avoid the writer.
