I got a beef - "Tipping" on FimFiction (Vlog) · 8:43pm Sep 20th, 2013
Hey guys, I got a real issue with some of the authors here on fimfiction thinking they are "obligated" or something to get money from the people who like their stories. I'm not going to go into it in detail through text, so I decided to try and make a Vlog about it.
View it here!
Give me your thoughts in the comments of either here or the video please!

I couldn't agree more if I wanted to.
Seriously, giving tips for writing is another thing, next to commissioning art (anything - pictures, stories, music), I will never understand.
What next? Will they hide the chapters behind adf.ly links?
I mean, hey, most of minecraft modders do this (and it pisses me oh-so-much because the stupid sites doesn't work more often than it does for me) 
. Come on, it's actually funny until they really decide to do it. 
So yeah, we'd better keep quiet about it. 
You'd think Knighty could hit up a really nice racket if he hid every single chapter link behind an advertising server.
It's kinda retarded and greedy to ASK for tips, but I don't see a problem with someone just generously donating.
Has anyone else noticed that the first YouTube comment is, and I quote word for word "swag"
mmm smell that beef..also i agree
I disagree with it, but I also understand why you would do it and if people are willing to buy commissioned stories, it's the same as buying commissioned art from 'famous' artists. Now if you're telling people stuff like, ''Buy my stories because I'm the greatest." then that is just pathetic. But this is merely an opinion.
Ijab's pic is too perfect XD. Anyway, I feel that If it's just a thing once or twice on a blog post here and there then I feel like I could deal with it. But if it's like what y'all have said about links to ads and pasting it all over their page then yeah, that sounds ridiculous and I do not agree with it... And your toothlessness is awesome.
