All MLP fanfic websites are horrible. Fimfiction is horrible. mlpfictions is horrible (the french version).
I hate FIMFiction because of the users and because of what i've experienced on this website. I hate MLPFictions because of the moderating system. Really, french bronies, don't go there. it's freaking shit.
Hello, dear watchers! I decided to finish A CottonBolt Story with a Triquel. Well, at least there'll be a Triquel. Maybe even a fourth book, but that's not sure (you know for the wedding n'all)... Hope you enjoy it, and hope I won't break down in the middle!
That's it, I give up on my fanfic. I give up on this site. There are too many trolling bastards in here. I guess you won't see me around for a while...
2477076 What do you mean? I didn't do anything, I just deleted the fiction because I didn't want people to troll anymore. Maybe I'll stick on posting stuff on deviantART, things work WAY better over there.
And I'm sure people are still gonna dislike my comments and everything... I'm kind of sick of it. I just wanted to defend that guy, and people still think they made sense? It was SO WRONG to defend that ungrateful pushover. He takes their insults as help! I mean, WHAT. THE. FUCK.
I don't see how the site and its users make people want to improve.
2477090 What?! Oh, my god... I can't even believe some people are so fucking stupid. It's like saying "do not trace my art" and everything! And we can't even CHOOSE to submit or not! Why does this site have to work so bad??? Why are bastards so free here?
2477110 what im saying is you prompted that by threatening something you couldn't enforce. Ask politely not to submit to certain groups. Dont threaten mod action. Be polite to your audience and they might be more polite to you.
2477139 Because I see this on like a weekly basis. New authors get hated on for not being perfect, react poorly, and end up quitting. Don't do that. Ask politely for constructive advice, apologize for the threats. Try to work to get better. It'll work out, if you handle it well and work hard.
I can start you off by restoring the story. You're not supposed to delete and repost.
2477160 No, I'm officially giving up. I ask for criticism, I ask for not putting them into groups without my opinion... tsk, they don't care. There they come again, disliking everything I say! I quit!
2477175 that'll be implemented some day. In the meantime you could just not worry about it and stop threatening people. Ask politely for help and they might help.
Also if it gets added to a group, POLITELY ask the group to remove it. They have to comply.
2477202 trust me. I see this all the time. When you post stuff here, people "test" you with some troll sort of comments. If you react poorly, they keep piling on because you're giving them the reaction they want. If you ignore it and focus on the criticism and improving your skills, you'll find a lot of people willing to help. It's surprising how much your attitude plays a role in your experience here.
Lemme know if you want the story restored. I'm happy to do that as well as remove it from groups if politely asking the staff is met with resistance.
Operative word here though is "politely." If you sscream and flail, you lower yourself to their level and encourage them to continue harassing you.
2477287 That doesnt really matter when people already remember you from that last debacle and now you've got an admittedly empty threat on your story. If you put a sign over a button that says "do not press," people are gonna press it just because it's amusing to them.
Im not trying to make you feel bad, I'm just explaining how this always goes in my experience. And I've got more experience with these situations than most. You can trust me when i give you advice here.
2477301 This community shares a lot in common with the real world of writing and the real world in general. You're free to run away and hide because youre not showered in praise, but learning how to function in a place like this is a valuable skill to have later in life.
To be fair, your own attitude didn't help things...
2477076 What do you mean? I didn't do anything, I just deleted the fiction because I didn't want people to troll anymore. Maybe I'll stick on posting stuff on deviantART, things work WAY better over there.

2477083 I meant threatening people with bogus reports in the description of your story. That can't do anything but hurt you.
2477090 What?! Oh, my god... I can't even believe some people are so fucking stupid. It's like saying "do not trace my art" and everything! And we can't even CHOOSE to submit or not! Why does this site have to work so bad??? Why are bastards so free here?
2477099 They wouldn't bother you if you didn't threaten them and act this way. You need to learn how to handle criticism better.
2477105 Most of the comments weren't criticism. From the beginning, I got so little constructive criticism for that much hate
2477110 what im saying is you prompted that by threatening something you couldn't enforce. Ask politely not to submit to certain groups. Dont threaten mod action. Be polite to your audience and they might be more polite to you.
2477117 Sure... like that was gonna make any difference...
2477124 It couldn't possibly hurt, right?
2477134 I said I gave up anyway... Why would they even listen

2477167 this community will support you if you have a better attitude. Trust me. Ive seen it tons of times.
2477168 Well, I'm coming back when I'll get to choose what people can do with my fanfictions.
2477175 that'll be implemented some day. In the meantime you could just not worry about it and stop threatening people. Ask politely for help and they might help.
Also if it gets added to a group, POLITELY ask the group to remove it. They have to comply.
2477179 Well, I'll try to ask them and eventually get a positive reply.

2477222 I didn't even reply to their trolling.

2477296 And that's why I dislike this community.
