    Technology

    It is hard to think of something we would be better off without. Gut reaction was to say explosives, but no explosives = no rockets = no spaceflight, at least unless someone went and made a launch loop/insane railgun, then developed ion engines too. I'd say the closest to better off without...

    Your opinion after investing your feelings to a character and the author just end up killing them

    As a reader, I hate characters dying, and have dropped a few novels due to it, though I do acknowledge that it has its place. For writing, not a fan of it either, but I just watch what happens and record it, so if it happens, it happens. Though I'll admit I'd be willing to twist things if one...

    [NSFW] Topics that you don’t want to get involve?

    I consider anything fair game in a fictional format, but personally avoid writing anything sexual. IMO if you can't have a good story without resorting to smut, then you are doing something wrong. It does make things much more popular if you do, however, so I'm crippling myself due to my...

    Best girl archetype (race)?

    Foxgirl or kitsune or kumiho/gumiho or huli jing. <3 fluffy tails. After the glorious floof, I like the classic angel/demon/succubus group, as well as phoenix, because screw dying. Dryads are also nice I beleaf. (Sorry, I had to. It is mandatory to make a tree pun when you talk about dryads.)

    Genre-based Story Titles

    I'm personally annoyed with the whole 'title is synopsis' type that is so common these days. Personally, I just go with something that seems to fit the setting and reasonably give an idea of the content. Example: The First Kitsune of Atryna is about the first kitsune to exist in the world...

    Story review paradox

    Personally, I check reviews when possible just to see if there are any glaring issues others couldn't stand, or if I get lucky, there is mention of foxgirl/kitsune to draw me into reading it. But other than that, I mostly ignore them, because everything is subjective, as mentioned before. I...

    Reasons why fictional 100+ year old legal lolis might be saving the world

    Too lazy to write a full reply, but in short, I agree. Real children should not be exposed to sexuality, IMO, and those who force the matter should have certain bits lopped off or just given death sentences to prevent a recurrence. I do not, however, see anything wrong with artificial versions...

    Recommendations Looking for a main character that switches between gender

    Not there yet, but my story involves a kitsune, which are known for illusion, shapeshifting, and appearing as either gender. The kitsune has also told me they will be using both genders when they reach the point of shapeshifting or using illusions to appear human.

    Recommendations looking for stories with dual protagonists

    My story, The First Kitsune of Atryna, has two primary characters -- a human and a kitsune that is currently still in the fox stage. I also recommend Blue Core. Blue Core is a dungeon core story where the dungeon is bonded with another character that acts as their representative in the world...

    Is it unhealthy that I always refresh my novel page?

    I have the same issue. I write for myself, but seeing others enjoy my story makes me feel much better, so I obsessively check in hopes of seeing someone interested enough in my story to put in the time to comment on it.

    What's your favorite foxgirl novels?

    Foxgirl recommendations? Whelp, this is has my attention, floofs > all. I cannot recommend AuthorSME's A Tail's Misfortune enough, it starts rough, gets nicer, then later becomes quite wholesome. I was Betrayed then Reincarnated as a Kitsune has rather OP chars, but nice character interactions...

    I think I misinterpreted what a "webnovel" is.

    If they actually did what I wanted, literally my entire story would be completely different, aside from like three events. But sure, I'm the writer and in full control... >.<

    About AI and ChatGPT

    I always like the whole "AI will never replace humans" thing, especially since it already has in many places. Or "AI will never be better than a human" when it often is. Sure, superior artificial general intelligence is hard as hell, but expert systems have been a thing for a good while now...

    I think I misinterpreted what a "webnovel" is.

    This is 100% accurate for me, I can't do it well at all. For me, I just create a world and characters, then watch what happens and write that. It is kinda annoying though, because practically none of my plans are ever followed. Even before I wrote the first chapter, I was arguing with the...

    What's your typing speed?

    Depends on tons of factors, typically I sit around 30wpm, but if I am writing something I've already decided on, and am not having any issues at the time, I can hit somewhere around 140wpm. Any misspellings or poor grammar slow me down, however, as I have to backspace and correct. This also...

    NEED IDEAS OF CREATIVE WAYS TO USE MAGIC

    Also fun: the human body is mostly water. And depending on how you do it, you might be able to move water continually with magic, so just put a small bubble of water over someone's nose and mouth, then hold it there as they suffocate. To be even more brutal, suck the moisture out of their eyes...

    Magic Beasts vs. Spirit Beasts vs. Demon Beasts vs. Quantum Beasts vs. Soul beasts vs. Familiars?

    I see magic/spirit/demon beasts as just different names for the same thing, while soul beasts and familiars would be linked to an individual on a deep level, making them their own category, but that is just my take on it. Many others see it differently than I do. Never seen anyone use quantum...

    Monster girls in harems

    Well, for me, at least, those are the same. Gotta have floofy tails! Fox girls > all!
