    What's with scammers these days... A scam comment on one of my chapters included this:
    Avarice_OfTheSeven Hello, I truly admire the effort and creativity that went into writing your book completing a story is a huge achievement.

    What the hell do you even mean by 'completing a story'? I've only posted 11 chapters until now.

    Do scammers not have brains? How the hell is that supposed to scam anyone?

    I was planning on building a large stockpile before recreating my novel, but I feel like I'm the kind of person who can only work under pressure. Since there was no deadline, I procrastinated and only made 6 chapters in the time I could've made 11 or more. So I'm gonna just go ahead and create my novel to give myself pressure.

    AI Witch hunts are getting out of hand. I sometimes begin questioning myself whether my own writing feels like AI or not.

    Hell, I don't use EM Dash even where I could benifit from it.
    It's not that these which hunts are right or wrong, they are just stressful to new authors.

    Especially on a site for originals where mostly AI stories are not allowed. (The loophole here is mostly, it's very hard to make rules for AI when it keeps improving.)
    There are plenty of sites for the AI bros to post their 'works' machine generations, so they shouldn't be posting where human writers are trying to compete.

    It is rewarding to read and be surprised by the cadence of human writing. It’s not something an llm can predictably replicate because of how it works. I’m getting really annoyed by all the so-called novels "written" by gpt showing up on my fb feed with everyone praising them. Seriously, go read a real book.

    Sometimes I wish I had a sibling or a friend that had anything to do with novels or stories. Its so frustrating when you want to discuss something about your story to get outsider opinion and you have no one to talk to. I'm so envious of those people whose siblings are writers as well.

    I remember seeing some people mention that if you post more than a certain number of chapters at once while creating your book on SH, then it would be flagged as spam and wouldn't appear in the new section.

    I forgot the exact number. What was it?

    Resolved - I've been shadowbanned

    When I was new to SH, I accidentally spammed chapters on one of my stories. Back then, I didn't know that that's not how you do things here. Now, I'm trying to post another story, but I've been already shadowbanned. This is basically a ban appeal and I didnt know where else to put it. So...

    If you sort the chapters within 24 hours then that could happen as it's to prevent authors from trying to cheat the latest updates page. Deleting a chapter might trigger the anti-cheat system too but I'm only like 80% sure about the deleting part.

    Why the hell are cultivation/Murim novels so obsessed with the word Heaven?

    I mean, they are also obsessed with words like Immortal or Demon, but Heaven is just used too much, too often. It has become a verbal tic at this point.

    Literally everything has the word Heaven in its name. It's used a bit too much in conversations as well. Aren't the authors worried about repetition within the chapter?

    Also offtopic story but related.
    There is this chinese guy that got to hospital because he wanted to try put 2 toe into a ring (and remove it but fail)
    So he cringely was sent there.
    5min later he is back. He tried the other foot.

    I didn't understand. Ring as in the ring you wear or the arena type of ring. Also, sent where? I think you've lost me.🙄

    ps : I hate words limit on profile posts. Because all punctuations and spaces, and even coding in the emojis count to the limit.

    I hate it as well. It's so annoying to restructure and compress what you wrote because you've hit the character limit.

    A ring, hand rings.

    But yeah, maybe not a ring, but basically a metal thingy. So the dude seeing the ROUND FORM thought : hey what if i put 1 finger+toe in it ?
    Result he couldnt remove them afterwards.
    So he was in weird position stuck. So he called and go to hospital. Removed.
    But day didnt end, he thought : this time i can succeed !
    And failed again > Hospital again.

    POV: Chunnibyou God surfing the internet.

    Wise man: "Don't judge a book by it's cover."

    Random person: "If your cover is AI, then your story is probably written by AI too."

    Glad i didnt annoy you. ☺️

    Because sometimes, some people dislike getting a bunch of replies/notifs.

    Oh, you don't need to worry about that, I find others talking more interesting than annoying.

    Still, why would that annoy anyone? And if it does then why would they even post?

    True indeed.


    But I guess its due mostly to the "spam". Nowadays people want this catchy short replies. Like messaging on phones.
    And not wall of texts. (which i often do)
    :unsure:
    And/or getting 10+ notifs. Which i kinda agree to, as all humans has different lvl of OCD about that.
    (i sometimes scroll down profile of someone, which weirdly, isnt popular in SHF)

    I was reading the content guidelines of a web novel platform, and in their prohibited action section, I found this;

    • · Artificially manipulating a work's volume (word count) or chapter count
    I'm kinda confused by this. Like, how do you even do that?

    The rules are there for contests.

    200 IQ authors use the Decaded solution to meet the minimum entry length. Authors with less IQ padded their word counts by using unnecessary descriptions and repetitions.

    This is why AI write like this. The not X but Y structure is the bread of butter for authors trying to pad their word counts and AI picked it up from them.

    Fun Fact: I have written 17 different drafts of my first chapter so far, each one including a different incident or hook, yet I still can't decide which one to use as my first chapter. Each draft has its own strengths and weaknesses, there is no draft that is downright better than the others.

    So I just can't decide on one.

    I tried Audiobooks of Light Novels for the first time.

    And... They suck (to me, at least).

    I think reading is far more comfortable than listening to audiobooks.

    Never tried.

    Though i heard once a very interesting opinion : "For me, its more a matter of convenience. I have free hands this way and can do my own things."
    I was 'wow. That makes sense.':oops:

    I discovered an interesting little life hack.

    I have pretty decent drawing and sketching skills physically, but I suck at digitally drawing. I hate complicated stuff so I didn't bother to learn.

    But I recently discovered a filter in my phone called 'Sketch'.
    Clicked a picture of my sketch, applied the Sketch filter, then lo and behold, you have successfully converted physical art into digital art.

    What's the best place for manga and light novel recommendations?

    I just can't seem to find good stories according to my taste. And I'm pretty deep in both, so I've read most of the common recommendations.

    I sometimes genuinely wonder whether the people are brainless or the brainless one is actually me.

    Like; why the hell do people fight over the justification for a fictional character's action?

    That character was written by a person not much different than them. That character isn't real.

    I just can't understand. Maybe the problem is with me?

    For me, i also wonder this, but for another subject : Slavery and MC using slavery.

    I see a bunch of people raging, foaming at the mouth, as if MC is some kind of atrocious monster SIMPLY bc he bought a female slave.
    As if the dude killed their parents, and that the author is some kind of megalomaniac mastermind that plot to destroy the world.
    Like bruh, what is wrong with you(this guys) ???
    Tsuru

    "He support slavery! What a monster!"
    "Its easy cheap plot, there are other ways!"

    Bruh, what do they expect from a common human, with 0 cheat/strength to do in a millenium history of isekai slavery to do ? Revolt ? Bring slaves together or some shit ?
    Do they think there won't be bodyguards with lvl99 around to defend the merchandise or what ?
    Tsuru
    Tsuru
    If not buying one (to help lvling), do they expect a weak-ass JP man lvl1 to 1 vs 5 goblins?

    Or want to see some "REALISTIC" shoujo plot, where MC turn a corner and bump a woman and befriend each other ?
    Or N-th plot of "MC save a carriage, and its a princess" ?
    Or MC try to recruit in the guild ? "Hey im new i want a cute girl to party with me !" ?



    So yeah, will never understand people raging over "MC+slave"

    I saw a YouTuber say that Webnovel is filled with novels written entirely by ChatGPT.

    I have never tried it, but it sounds like BS to me. How can AI assistants write long novels?

    I mean, it's possible with dedicated AI apps, but I don't think ChatGPT or Gemenai can write long novels. If ChatGPT generates a story spanning more than 20 chapters, that story will become incomprehensible to humans.

    I liked Demon X Angel Manhua a lot and I've been reading it for a year or two.
    But...
    I suddenly found this.
    After reading it, I thought. 'They are right, I must be mentally ill.'

    Does the threads have text limit? if so then what is it? because I'm about to create a thread that will probably have 2k+ word count.
