You are doing it wrong

 

 

I find it almost amusing how serious some issues on this site are taken. From upvote shops, to how good the poster is to the number of subscribers, everything has slowly, but steadily turned into politics, and it's sad. You are all getting mad over injustice, over how a story ended up being featured despite using a cheatcode and so on. There's nothing wrong with rebelling against such issues, it's just that there are more pressing issues on this site that have been significantly less addressed compared to the others. That, as well as the fact that this is but a site, one that isn't so much a platform of social media, but more like a portfolio for writers. Issues such as these should not be a cause for bad health, whether it is physical or mental. You should not be getting so mad over how people decide to get their story out there. Let them be. It's not taking anything from you, is it? They're getting more publicity, and not necessarily a positive one, whereas you will be able to sleep at night knowing you have done things the 'right' way. Turning this into a war and pointing fingers at people is not a good enough strategy to stop such actions from happening. Chill. Write. Drown yourselves in good vibes only.

Exactly right. People care way too much over what other's do to get their story out there: While I don't believe in the idea of upvote shops, that a story SHOULD be noticed with time and such I'm not going to throw a hissy fit over someone who does. We all think and believe differently. Opinions/beliefs should not be shoved down someone's throat.

It's nice to see others speaking on this.

I agree. This site is supposed to be a reader/writer area. other than that would defeat the purpose of this site

I don't really know the issue but hopefully it resolves itself.
