help a brother out · 5:26am Jun 27th, 2014
Hey guys.
So a very close friend of a friend of mine posted a story. It has taken a pretty excessive hit from a wide swath of idiots who didn't bother to read it people who don't understand or don't want to take a chance with the fetish. Also, people who don't like their waifus getting raped.
The guy doesn't post so often and most of what he posts is, after all, very niche-y rape-y stuff, but honestly, there's nothing wrong with that. It doesn't deserve mass downvotes. It's pretty decently written, with believable transitions from rational to controlled mind, good characterizations, and nicely detailed sex scenes. I just wanted to give it some attention I suppose. It's not like this fic is mind-blowingly super awesome, but give the fella a read. Give it a chance.
Heck, to make this blog post a bit more useful to you guys, here's some general advice. Don't vote or favorite or anything until you read, and don't downvote just because there's a fetish warning in the tags that you would prefer to avoid. In some instances (ie troll users or blatant shock writers) you're encouraging them, and when a guy is just expressing himself through fic, there's nothing more demotivating then that. I always read before I do any voting, because I might be surprised, and I never downvote if I don't read because of gross eww icky yuck tags.
Don't be ig'nant. A story isn't bad because of the content. A story is bad because of the execution. This story is too well executed to be as bad as the votes say. Help this brother out and, by extension, help me and help my friend.
Thank ya'll.
DAMN RIGHT!
It pisses me off seeing fics downvoted just because it has some fetish someone dislikes, or some other reason, that the downvoter does not even bother reading the fic.
The ONLY time that I have downvoted ANY story was if it was so poorly executed, it hurt, and on those rare occasions, I gave multiple reasons why, and did so in a manner not meant to be hurtful.
Because you recommend this fic, I shall give it a read, even though it is not my fetish. Who knows, I might enjoy it.
It's good of ya to stick up for a friend, and I do wholly support this blog, but I don't think he's gonna be falling apart over this.
He's got fics that are honestly quite successful. Gonna stay away from the fic, as I don't exactly approve of dark clopfics (there's loads of depressing shit on this site, I like my clopfics to at least have a bright light at the end of the tunnel, y'know?), but good on 'em for expressing himself.
I understand where you're coming from, Elusive.
People need to me more open-minded about things, or live their life in ignorance.
