ffdotnetrants | Anonymous Reviewers have truly found a new low.

Is it me or are anonymous reviewers super cocky? Like really, I was reading the reviews to one fanfiction in the YGO 5D's fandom and my god. It's a good story but the writer's going through some shit in her life and people really have no respect. If she's lying or not doesn't matter because every writer I understand hits a stop in their life. Hell I have my stories on a permanent hiatus because I have no inspiration for any of them right now. And said author has apologized profusely. This is why I don't allow anonymous reviews.

If you would like to read the reviews here's the link to the story.

It is truly appalling how "fans" of a story treat an author. Sad thing is, they can't be reported. Really, who calls themselves a fan of something if that's how you treat said thing you're a fan of. Has this ever happened to anyone? I mean I understand people want updates, but as a fanfiction writer myself, last time I checked, the story doesn't belong to said "fans". A true fan stays with said fanfic to the end. Sorry...I really needed to rant about it.

Edit: Some reviews have been taken down, but now said reviewer is harping on me? o.e Really...what part of "This story is on Permanent Hiatus due to loss of inspiration" does troll person not understand? Do I need to pay a toll to shut this person up? And it's the same person too. You should see the reviews this person put up now. Makes me all nice and pissed inside. =D

Well, maybe one day you'll taste it. It's a very Scottish drink - it's the best-selling soda here (even though we don't call it soda), even better than Coca Cola.

Lol. I'm not much of a Coca Cola person. I like Pepsi better. I only drink Coca Cola if there's nothing else left to drink. I'll try it. One day lol. xD

They should put screening things for anon reviews.

Haha. Holding your breath with FF. You're funny. I'd probably die in the first 30 seconds or something.

Lol, have you looked at the homepage? They've been doing a lot of "stuff" recently. xD

Yea, they just do it.

"Oh, yeah we changed this and this and this. But we're not going to ask your opinion because we really don't care. How we manage to stay this popular is a mystery even to us. Hope your day is full of errors on our site.

Love,

Your "Ever So Faithful" Staff of Fanfiction.net

o.e

I can't believe I wrote that.

Oh, and lets not forget.

"P.S.

We love reading the support messages and reports but not taking any action. Why? Because that's how we roll."

Lol.

What's the point of having a TOS if it isn't enforced?

The only time I've seen something being enforced is when prudey little teenyboppers report "SMUT"

o.e

There's a M rating for a reason.

I can understand someone having one other account if they may write seriously obscure things and want to keep that completely separate and under a different identity. I've seen people do this, and I've even seen people create accounts to get away from someone harassing them, which is completely understandable. But I've seen a lot of people create new accounts and leave a note on their profile saying "I just wanted to change my user name!!" And I'm like "Dude, you do realize that FFN is one of the few sites out there that actually allows you to change your name, right? You didn't have to get a whole new account."

Heh...the harrassment and obscure things I understand. I would have different accounts for situations like that. The changing the username is what gets me po'ed. Let's not forget that there are people who come out with the "Oh, I got tired of this account." Which most likely isn't true, they're probably tired of the username.

There are also other that come out with the "Yeeeaaa, I don't like any of my stories anymore so I started a new account." If you don't like your stories there is a delete button. xC

I think the account thing is one of the reasons FFN is so crowded, cause it's just a bunch of people with multiple accounts.

Speaking of all the screwing-with-stuff ff.n does?

I love how the jackass I complained to made out like it was my fucking fault for using NoScript because - gee, surprise surprise - I want some fucking 'net security on my web browsings and I shouldn't have to allow random sites besides just ff.n to get my shit done.

(It still kind of annoys me that I need to whitelist some SSL site and an ASPnet site so I can get the user controls to work.)

Lol...I use Adblock Plus. I don't want random sites popping up...it's like the biggest pet peeve in the world.

I remember FFN had the block ads thing for 3 days. I would use it all the time, but now it's down to one day, so I find it a feature that's taking up space.

And I gave up on trying to complain to FFN. I don't find it worth it if they either

A) Don't reply.
B) Give the general "We'll hop to it!" answer...(which they never do until there's some for of mass anarchy or something about to happen.)
C) Blame said messenger.

I'll say one thing though...at least FFN is better than Quizilla. (Makes me sad...I started out at Quizilla. D:)

WHAT. No seriously, WHAT?! I am so full of rage right now. That is uncalled for.

Anonymous reviewers I have a mixed relationship with. I've gotten some GREAT reviews from them and some not so great ones. Actually, the ones I've gotten the most shit in have been ones from people SIGNED in. Usually because *GASP* how dare I have the gall to write that pairing?! It's disgusting! You shouldn't be writing this!

Seriously, I warned for the pairing. It's in the summary and its in the header. Are you not capable of reading that reviewer?

I vote to send this person to Silent Hill.

hahahaha....nah...Silent Hill's just creepy...lets send 'em to Raccoon City....unarmed...>D
