Another great chapter! This is a whole new side of Applejack then how she was before. Earlier on, Applejack wasn't too sure about the punishment side of being a little but now we are able see how she has changed throughout her time with Rainbow Dash. This chapter really gives a "hint" as to what is going through Applejack's head as we also see how Rainbow Dash reacts to this sudden change. In short, the story is evolving as well as the characters (which is working out very well). Bravo to you!
8767074 I saw what you said about the whole like to dislike ratio (don't know why I didn't notice it before... Probably because I was tired) and something interesting happend on one of my stories that I remember happening vividly which might enlighten you. Instantly after one of my stories hit the site, literally seconds passed as I refreshed the page, my story already had dislikes. My guess is that the individuals who look to see if the stories fit the rules (the admins/mods) disliked the story because they didn't like it themselves. They of course still approved the story since it didn't break the rules but the dislikes were their opinion. I'm not sure if this happened to you or not but check to see how fast the first like/dislike comes through next time on a first chapter. I can't prove the existence of any "badmin trolls" nor am I certain that they are the cause for the dislikes on my story or yours in the first place. As I said, this is simply a possibility. Regardless, you shouldn't focus on haters, constructive criticism is fine of course but not outright hate. You should focus on those who liked and wished to see more of your work since you'd be making the person(s) very happy. Even if it's just one person, that one person would appreciate you noticing him/her. Anyways, you get the point and this "pep talk" is concluded. You basically heard the same thing already so... Good luck on future work!
8793013 That's a pretty interesting theory, and I had a similar thing happen to this one, the dislikes came almost instantly. I don't think it's the case though. I've talked to a few of the mods and admins, as I've unintentionally broken a few rules here and there, and they were nothing but polite and helpful. They pointed out what was wrong, and offered to let me correct it as opposed to just banning or blocking it, which is more than I can say for wattpad for sure. And that says a lot considering they had to read through my story to find those problems, and for someone not into it, it's probably not a good time. Also I haven't had this problem on my other ab/dl stories, if this theory was true, then I would see that happen for every ab/dl story I upload. It happened to this one which is the only one that had ab/dl written in the description, which leads me to believe if it is some kind of hate spamming, then it's done by bots or users searching for that specific word. Still all just theories, all I can do is take it at face value and do better, which is something I need to do regardless.

I do appreciate the moral support though.
I like this so far. Waiting on new chapters
