Hey, I was cleaning out the archives and did a word search, what can I tell ya?

It's still a relevant topic, to see how the trend might have evolved.

Anonymous will always be a relevant topic here because the will always continue to frustrate people, especially new authors who weren't prepared for the abuse.

I thought anymouse was funny three years ago I think they are downright hilarious now.

Sometimes anonymous comments can be useful, helpful and even complimentary.

But some are just the person venting their anger at a category or plot they dislike no matter who writes it, nor how well it is written.

What I really dislike is the tendency for some to place low votes across a range of my stories in so short a time that they can't possibly have read them. They usually run out of steam before they downgrade all 200+ stories...

so does that mean the top 20 or so on your list keep getting bombed?

No. They usually start bombing in alphabetical order.

No. They usually start bombing in alphabetical order.

Exactly my own experience.

If you look at my own stories (125 of them), I've lost more than a few red "H" ratings at the top of the alphabetical list because of this same practice.

My stories after the letter D or E aren't usually affected 'cause anonymous runs out gas....

No. They usually start bombing in alphabetical order.

Good to know. My next story will be "Zebras in Heat."

Oh wait. No animals... right.

So maybe "Zach's Wild Night Out" or "Zamara's Affair"...

Just keep adding more stories that start with A and confuse the little fuckers.

The trolls must have a blast with the authors who try to start everything with an A because they think its an advantage in the lists.

At one time it was an advantage. Starting with a punctuation mark was even better.

A story about two zebras mating might be acceptable, but not a zebra and a human.

We can't write of sex between humans and dogs,
Or humans with wombats, giraffes or with frogs.

But we can write plenty of cats fucking cats,
Or couplings of horses or kangaroo rats.

I never have done it for nobody cares
To read of the mating of Kodiak bears.

But if someone wanted to write about beasties
That went about breeding with different species.

Then Laurel and Manu would probably say
"You can write it but no one will read anyway."

and if one zebra was white with black stripes and the other black with white stripes it could go in interracial.

I know what you mean about the advantage that's why scouries started those two lame stories with quotation marks.

 

[JaxRhapsody]

It should be stickied to just block anon comments.

I've received a few negatives from A Non Mouse but only one was stupid enough to delete.

Meanwhile, how to write about a zebra fucking a human and vice versa: The zebra body is actually a morphed human. The human body is actually a morphed dolphin. Or maybe the zebra body is a morphed orangutan. Anyway, nobody is what they appear. Just be sure they talk to each other.
