Proper Categorization · 9:40pm Sep 25th, 2015
Recently I read a story that had improper character tags. When I told the author they seemed to be totally uncool about it. In the comments I showed them an image that pointed out the surplus character tag (& admittedly my dissatisfaction with its presence), & the author then replied to me with a doctored image of my comment removing the presence of the tag on the image (& only on the image, the tag remained on the actual story)(they also missed a corner of the tag when they erased it too). It's not like they ever apologized or anything either, they were just a total tool about it.
I personally have had trouble figuring out how to tag stories when I successfully finish writing them, but I know not to tag a character that's never going to be in the story in any capacity & I'd like to think that I would apologize for mistakes made in that regard.
I just really don't appreciate being tricked into reading a story that I actually have no reason to read. Especially if the author of it is an unapologetic jerk about their improper tagging.
