Just saw a shitty take by someone (who wasn't underage) who just got done getting their followers to campaign against a writer who left out ONE TAG.
It's not okay to bully writers into deleting their fic and/or leaving fandom unless they don't tag their fics appropriately.
You had me in the first half but I'm sorry. WHAT?!
This person never would've survived fandom before AO3.
FFnet doesn't even have a way to tag anything other than main characters (limit for 4).
I used to read fanfic on websites where the writers didn't even give summaries!
Seriously we used to just go to a personal website or basic archive, read a fic or two, and if we liked the writer's style, we read the rest of their fics with absolutely no tags/warnings, no summary or a shitty summary, only a vague guess on pairings, and the only clear indication of fandom from the pics on the writer's website or a heading.
I wasn't around when it was just zines, but I'm sure fandom elders can comment on that.
But beyond all that, why are we still making ANY excuses for bullying people into taking down their shit?!
Go read something else! Or better yet get out of fandom if you're going to be THIS toxic.
Writers are sharing fic for FREE and none of them demanded you read it.

Thank you so so much to the person who reported my account to AO3 for commercialization and a violation of TOS because of this author's note on one of my stories:
"In this particular story, while unresolved from a criminal standpoint, Lance does at least have Keith's support and that can make a world of difference. So many do not even have that though (and especially in red states where if you tell the wrong person... living in a dystopian nightmare) so I wanted to take a moment to link you to RAINN -- the Rape, Abuse & Incest National Network -- if you ever need to reach someone, if you ever need to talk, and, if you're like me, able to donate so victims can receive help and support."
Apparently the phrase "like me, able to donate" is a solicitation. It takes a sad, bitter person to go through years of my works to report such an innocuous sentence designed to help others and just as crappy for AO3 to determine that somehow that is a violation. I can't count how many charity zines I've seen advertised on AO3 or causes that creators are passionate about and want to share it with their readers, but apparently someone hates me that much. I'm used to the trolls (not used to, there's no getting used to the sheer hate and cruelty leveled at me because you don't like what I write rather than being an adult and hitting the back button) but I've accepted that. This though? This is just the reaction of some jealous, awful person that unfortunately has lasting repercussions.
I've now been suspended for 14 days. Apparently that's my sign to never try to advocate for charities again that are out there trying to help people. I hope whoever you are that felt the need to report my author's note about supporting a charity that you're happy with yourself.
Due to this, I may also be refraining from posting works going forward on AO3 because I have no idea at this point the limits people will go and what AO3 Support staff will somehow find valid. I will have to go back and scour my posts for any mention of charity zines (and heaven forbid what charity they supported) to wipe them out less I be seen soliciting for donations again.
Not that anyone is really reading my works these days, but whelp, I won't be posting for at least 2 weeks on AO3 to at minimum finish up the stories I already have there. I'll still be posting as normally scheduled on Patreon.
And while I can't do anything about AO3, if you'd like to make a positive difference I do highly encourage anyone to donate to RAINN and make some sunshine and rainbows out of this nasty storm ☀🌈.

The whole situation is super shitty but I think “I’ll make sure to stop for everyone” is what makes me so angry for him, he’s literally negotiating for his fucking privacy and it’s so sad

Me before rewatching 2012 and seeing the complaints people were having about it: ''Damn... I never thought that my childhood show was also crap and this bad... God I'm worried how it will be if I ever rewatch it..''
Me after rewatching many of the episodes of 2012 and getting my memories back from several episodes and thinking and over-analyzing certain thing and using logic: ''What the hell were people saying and why did I believe some of that stuff??''
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Seriously ya'll aren't criticizing TMNT 2012 anymore, your just trying to make people hate it and think it's horrible when it isn't. The show has flaws and I can see now some of the bad writing. But people are acting like 2012 is the worst thing ever and that they ruined the characters and that they are horrible. Also stop shaming and hating on people for liking that version more then other versions. It is not a sin to like or think 2012 is better then a certain version. And STOP mischaracterizing characters just to make your beloved and favorite characters look like saint angels who do no wrong.

you can think what you want about drake bell at the moment, but there's no denying the fact that the people who wrote letters of support for brian should personally apologize to drake. we've only heard some of those people speak out, i have heard absolutely nothing from others. but drake has said that absolutely nobody has personally reached out to talk to him and sincerely apologize. the only reason some of them might start doing it so late is because of the most recent 5th episode of drake saying and confirming no one has reached out to him. they don't want their petty little careers to be under any more fire but they've already written those letters. there's no taking back what THEY decided to do. this whole situation is so sickening and i feel absolutely horrible for drake and i really hope he can find any amount of peace, even if it might be small.
