Bring back gatekeeping. Not for the weird theater kids. D&D has always been the home of weird theater kids. We need to gatekeep the people that want to turn D&D into call of duty or something.
if youre going to represent gluttony as a person who eats a lot then you should represent lust as a gooner who catcalls and harasses random people. if youre going to make lust a sexy woman then you should make gluttony a chef am i making sense or js rambling
Ed Sheeran removing Macklemore from his tour by siding with genocide and billionaires and then losing all of his supporting acts for the tour and his FUCKING BAND OF TEN YEARS
No offence, as someone who has been around since livejournal and fanfic days, I really hate what normies / tiktokers / social media has done to fanfiction and creative fandom spaces recently. AO3 is not a social media place & sooner people realise that, the better.
AO3 is an archive, wattpad users. It's not a social media site and it doesn't have an ingrained algorithm. You will not get famous. Your fics will not be recommended automatically by the system. You post your fics for the love of the game, that's it.
