{Fanfics} An Authors Notes...

[sweety8587]

An author's ending note that I wanna share cause..well...err...

"Everyone who's been enjoying this story but has not been leaving encouraging reviews can all die in hell. Do you have any idea how discouraging it is to see so many hits and yet being forced to think that it's not satisfying enough for you to leave a review? Even if it's bad criticism, I want it. You're all assholes who are about as bad as leeches who read manga online and don't even buy a single translated publication even if they're available in your area. Shame on you.

A small few of you have also been complaining to me about deleting anonymous reviews which you have been leaving. I'm a sensitive, guy, so when I see that someone anonymous has been leaving a review to every single freaking chapter and they're all horribly spelled and don't offer anything constructive, it makes me feel paranoid and I think you're mocking me. You think I'm pathetic? Well, you're reading my fanfiction so DEAL WITH IT...

Examples include: "OMG THIS IS GREAT GIVE ME MOAR" or "AWESOME CANT WAIT FOR THE NEXT UPDATE". Seriously, that stuff pisses me off, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who feels this way. Anonymous reviews are welcome, but please don't leave a review if you can't even offer me anything helpful. This is not facebook or myspace, this is fucking fanfiction. If you're going to do that, send it to me as a message. And if you're still going to do it, learn to spell. All caps is considered rude and is the mark of a troller. I should know."

...wow them be harsh words. I dunno bout this person here but....I love seeing more hits than reviews. I mean, I LOVE reviews (even if they are one liners) but when i see the hits I go "WOOHOO 10k hits I WIN~ :D" In Homer Simpson style.

is paranoid/touchy author paranoid/touchy?

WELL THEN SIGN ME UP AS A TROLLER 8D

Is the person mental? Seriously? You do NOT tell that to your fans. Christ, every author wants reviews but hits and alerts are not a bad thing.

What astounds me though is that this person managed to insult the intelligence of his fanbase, question their loyalty, call them horrible and then proceeded to demand respect and good reviews. WTF? They're going to get NO reviews come next update and I hope they don't either. I have reviewers who leave only a line or two each chapter, but I am still ecstatic to get them. Geez, talk about not appreciating a fanbase /)_-

word! it comes off as very bi-polar doesnt it? :\ lucky for them thats the final author note after the fic end and i usually leave a nice long review at the final chapter but after this i was like "Y' know, now i dont wanna."
