@_c3pn@unemployedb22 Wait people freak out when AO3 gets mentioned in mainstream?
Also the reason why it takes so dang long to make an account on AO3 is because its run manually, there are no AIs or bots doing it automatically, it's all done by volunteers
@SurrealMind_6@unemployedb22 My original comment was mostly talking about the other commenters, some people genuinely want it nuked for reasons that just aren't good enough
@the_akashin1@melonabarr@unemployedb22 ???
I don't really understand?
There are other ways to solve this problem than to just nuke the whole website?
Is everything just "nuke it" for you?
@melonabarr@unemployedb22 why did you ignore the part where I go "Like, yeah I have no problem with them getting sued and having to change their policy on rpfs"
I HATE those fics and I HATE how you can't directly remove them, but I think nuking the entire site is a massive overkill
@unemployedb22 why do people wish AO3 to get nuked because of the TINY ASS minority
Like, yeah I have no problem with them getting sued and having to change their policy on rpfs BUT WANTING A WEBSITE NUKED ALONG WITH ALL 18,003,672 OF NORMAL FICS THAT REAL PEOPLE WORKED HARD FOR IS ABSURD
@ShatteredLazuli@unemployedb22 yes, that's exactly what I was saying about getting sued and forced to implement better restrictions against these things, but I think that wanting the entire website nuked just because of this is dumb
@wlwxinyan sorry I meant pretty much all of their money is spent on maintaining their servers, they don't have the funds to hire more moderators, any and every mod you see on the site are volunteers
@wlwxinyan AO3 is fully run on donations and volunteers, their money is spent on maintaining the servers that run the website, idk where you got the money info from
also you can report people sharing CSAM in the comments
@ShatteredLazuli@unemployedb22 ...and OP wants the entire website nuked because of that minority
Say, there are people sharing csam here on twitter and do you want twitter to get nuked?
Its like burning down a forest to get rid of a single bear
@unemployedb22 The idea of burning down real stories people poured their blood, sweat, and tears into just because there were two weirdos making stories about victims and shooters is plain DUMB
@unemployedb22 I've seen the five screenshots of gross things plastered across twitter, but you are forgetting that there is bound to be gross stories in ANY story website, you only need to dig for it
