So, reading through this thread I am confused about one thing. Are you guys talking about children or about young adults? If you write young adult fiction, it's not your responsibility to keep it children-friendly. Otherwise, you would write, well, children's stories. It is the responsibility...

Guess I'll just jo— Okay.

Yeah, ratings are anonymous for a reason. First, non-anonymous ratings would add an additional hurdle to even rate in the first place. Some people do not want others to know what they rate. That goes for pretty much every kind of rater. Second, the potential for abuse is huge. For example, not...

Fluff is love Fluff is justice

There is a link right next to the content warning button when you create or edit your novel. Quite a few people seem to miss that one though.

I'm not even quite sure what the point of this thread is. First of all, I mostly agree with Axiom here, all the things you claim aren't present could be easily put into racing games as well. Great, microtransactions aren't there yet. But why not? Because the target group is not the kind that...

I do. I write one chapter per week and upload it on Sundays. Mostly to stay motivated, but also to have some kind of assurance for my readers. Readers are actually quite sensitive to these things. My upload time is usually a few hours before the daily reset, so I figured once to try a few...

You can delete comments but you cannot delete reviews afaik. At least I couldn't when I tried to check on reviews. But for comments, I have a delete button so I guess you can.

It also doesn't appear in your profile. Are you sure the story was approved already? That may take up to 24 hours iirc and before that, it won't be visible anywhere.

I don't have Word so I can't really comment on the why or how for it. Regarding the difference in word count though, the difference can be that big. At least for me, it is. A chapter of mine at around 8k on SH is around 8.5k on Grammarly. One of my newer chapters is at exactly 6000 on SH and...

There most likely really isn't anything missing in your story. As far as I know, that happens because SH counts contractions as a single word. I know Grammarly counts them as two words, for example. On the other hand, google docs also counts it as a single word. Never really bothered looking at...

I do. In fact, I quite love the glossary. I add things people might not always remember, or sometimes even add worldbuilding related things that are kind of unimportant to the actual story itself. If someone is interested in it, they can check it. As someone who loves to do worldbuilding, it's...

Reviews are a mixed bag in my opinion. As a reader, I like seeing in-depth reviews about the story and its contents. It doesn't matter whether it is a 5* review for that matter or a 4* or 3* review. Furthermore, if there are many 5* reviews that are still praising the story in a single sentence...
