Time skip to it and fill in the blanks that led up to it after wards.

You’re pretty late to the party if you’re only now reaching this conclusion. I’ve been calling it a social weapon of mass destruction for a few years now.

No, filtering out genres will limit what YOU personally see on the trending list specifically on the home page which is already implemented. So YOU will be able to at the very least KNOW if you’re on trending the day you log in and are at the home page when you limit it to specifically the...

If people just want to know whether they’re on trending they can just filter out and exclude all the genres that aren’t on their story and include all the genres for their story. That will sort trending as well and they’ll likely show in the top 9 spots on the home page if they are anywhere on...

Authors knowing is the problem. Readers typically don’t even really care about the rankings, it’s the authors that care because it gives them visibility. But then constantly seeing that ranking all the time ends up becoming their focus. It leads to paranoia where some authors are obsessed with...

This is an awful idea. When you do this you’ll have authors who start obsessing over trending and rankings to a toxic degree the way they do on Royal Road. Where a single number is all they ever look at or care about when it’s really just a meaningless metric. It’s plastered in your face the...

Shitty.

Tell them quit YouTube. Also even if you’ve used these arguments, the words you use to represent those arguments are what matters. The process also matters. Are you listening to their points? Acknowledging them? What tone are you setting? How are you speaking? Confidently, or indecisively...

If you’re a writer and you’re asking other people what argument you can make, you’ve failed as a writer. Instead of taking it all personal, getting all defensive, and shutting down, first listen to their points and acknowledge what they’re saying. They say selling copies is easy, but simply ask...

Idgaf and just accept my writing’s shit. So what if it’s shit anyway? Far off future me can go back and figure out what’s wrong and fix that crap. I just want to write the story to completion first and editing/proofreading every little thing is a great hindrance to writing the story to...

It’s funny you say this because horror actually works the complete opposite. The more information you give people, the less scary it is. The scariest things are typically the less realistic versions because you have less information to work with. What humans are truly afraid of are the things...

Crimson Snow

If you want a really easy way to beat him just go to the eastern region of the map in Caelid, go to the southern side of the rot swamp and you can find the meteorite staff(you can’t upgrade this staff but it’s the strongest staff accessible early into the game with S scaling for intelligence...

The people who say retirement in old age are good times are absolutely full of shit, it’s just another lie adults tell young people to trick them into diligently working hard for society. The truth about old age is that’s when you’ve got all your health problems popping up after working your ass...

A kidney stone out in the mountains can very well be extremely life threatening, just as much as a heart attack. If they try to move around when they have it, they could easily trip and fall to their death in the mountains. It doesn’t even need to be a big fall off a cliff. Simply stumbling...

Why not just give them a kidney stone? It ends up being from dehydration from hiking out in the mountains so get the person to drink lots of water to see if it helps it pass. “A major risk factor for kidney stones is constant low urine volume. Low urine volume may come from dehydration (loss of...

I loved math to the point I finished an electrical engineering degree. But at a certain point in math you don’t get to see numbers anymore. It starts feeling like you’re just reading run on sentences rather than equations.

It’s only fun for so long. When you reach a high enough level in math, it’s like learning another language. It reaches a point where there are no longer any numbers at all.

As long as you’re not already 935k words deep and not even at the 1/3 mark in your first act of 3 in your story yet I think you’re doing just fine.

People can point fingers and blame each side all they want rather than taking a look at the problems to try and fix them but at the end of the day one side can’t exist without the other. The poor would not survive without the rich and the rich would not survive without the poor. Both sides rely...
