There are two types of AFF authors who don't get noticed:

1. Those who write gold. There are the authors who don't write cliche, make awesome plots with no grammar mistakes, they write stories that have deep and meaningful messages for readers. Quality over quantity. If I just had billion of karmas, I would advertise their stories as an anonymous fan. Bless their talent.

2. Those who write crap There are the authors write for karma, subscribers, upvotes. Who doesn't want fans? Everyone would love to have fans. Yay. But these who are dying to become popular won't gain the word respect. They freak out and flip tables when they don't receive any comments and subscribers. Their stories have character profiles. They use atleast 3 different font colors and sizes for each paragraph. They have no freedom because they write for fame and not for themselves. I wish I could help them so they could realize what's wrong, but if I leave a comment regarding their mistakes, they would surely take it as a hate comment instead of a constructive critisim. Since no one's talking to them, they would leave and bid their goodbyes and say, "No one's commenting so I'm going to leave.", "I have no purpose in writing since no one's commenting. I'm going to delete this and that.". Bullsh*t. I have livejournal drabbles and my drabbles rarely receive comments. Did I delete my stories? Did I delete my account? Did I rant? No. I saved my stories. Why? Because I write for myself first.
