AwkwardMD AI Rejection Help Desk

Absolutely bullshit. This site has no real editors. They just accept submissions from those who pay for the servers. Genuine writers and budding writers are not allowed to publish their work.
I'm sorry you feel that way. Best of luck with your future writing.
 
Meaning - this is all the help I can get here, because ... Okay, let's try it this way:

The version of MS Word I use at home is the same as the one at work—thanks to the office license, I don't need to install my own MS Office at home. However, this also has the disadvantage that the document contains personal information about me. My first and last name, for example. Is it conceivable that I might not necessarily want to upload this information?
Just in case it's helpful... I use the process described here when working with Word to remove private info.

That's not how I've ended up doing most of my writing though. These days, I write in Word, then copy to Google Docs for collaboration with my besties, and copy the end result back to Word. I then run a macro to do the HMTL tagging, then copy and paste the result into the text submission box, then iterate any changes through the Word document to keep things consistent as I debug the formatting and do any last minute changes. So far no issues.
 
As the OP stated: The purpose of this thread is not to help AI-assisted writing be published on Literotica, but to help authors who did not understand that what they were doing violated the rules.

Let's stick to the topic please.

No amount of "I only used AI to do X" is acceptable. Lit's AI Detector knows when you've allowed something inhuman to fiddle with your story, and getting it posted once it gets that first red flag usually requires someone else (like me) to vouch for you personally.

This is a bit like a boxer failing a PED test and saying "I only took it the one time, a couple weeks ago, because my mate was moving and I knew I was gonna have to carry his couch. It's like 3 flights of stairs!"

I'm sorry, but you might need to scrap that story and start over.
My rejection notice says it expects most of the story to be human written and that it is okay to use programs for spelling such as MS and Grammaryly just not to have those programs write or rewrite text. I use an obsolete version Mac MS Word that MS no longer supports. The spell checker and thesis as 'unsupported'' and disabled by MS. I subscribe to Grammarly Pro and have it on checking my spellings instead. I refuse to sign up for MS Word new monthly subscriptions sine I wrrite very few stories these days at 86 years old.

I insert HTML simple codes by hand for centering, bold, italic only. Those are done mostly after the edit is returned to me in MS Word by Kenji. I copy that text and paste it into the Lit window after having issues when I first started with bad formating being posted in MS Word looking ok but wrong on Lit.

Grammarly wants to rewrite some of my sentences [even here but I left them in for you to see], but I do not accept them. My words only flowing into my 70 other so stories.

I edit my stories and also send them to Kenjisato who edits for me. His grammar and suggestions are human and not machine offered changes. He sticks to spelling grammar and occasionally anticident clarifications.

Did I miss something in this thread about help? Your helping someone? I dont see anything you have written that is particularly helpful. Do you actually read them for AI and offer suggestions to change the story based upon your AI intuition in Lit's rejections?

The rejections treads seem to believe it it all over the place without rhyme or reason.

Are you asking for help, or just taking passive aggressive shots at me?

If you want to know the purpose, I'll refer you to the initial post:
.The purpose of this thread is not to help AI-assisted writing be published on Literotica, but to help authors who did not understand that what they were doing violated the rules. In other words, if you don’t know why your story was rejected, I can’t help you.
Unfortunately, I can't control who wanders in here and wants to talk about whatever, so I'm not sure what you were expecting. If I could control that, you and I would not be having this conversation right now.

Grammarly is a too-often-to-be-ignored common thread in AI rejections. I don’t know why anyone paying attention to any of these threads would use it, and would suggest you get rid of it for future writing, but that doesn't help your current WIP. Unfortunately, there's not much more I can suggest based on how you have described your writing process (assuming it's true).

The next step that Lit suggests is to resubmit your story with a Note to the Admin stating that AI was not used in the creation of your story. Good luck.
 
After 6 submissions being rejected, let's see if this one gets sent back for AI:

"See Dick.

See Jane.

See Dick fuck Jane.

Fuck Jane… fuck.

See Dick cum all over Jane.


The End."

Yes I actually just submitted this in Humor & Satire.

Well, the minimum word count requirement is 750 words, so if that is literally what you submitted, it's going to be rejected for length🙄

Lit's AI detector is looking for something specific. It's not a system immune to false positives, but it requires some fairly specific ingredients to make that happen where it shouldn't.

Write your own story. Edit your own story, or enlist the aid of a volunteer editor. This is the only way, and I mean for everyone to follow these steps as literally as possible.

I did that 6 different times and got the same bullshit. Helluva way to treat new authors. Smh
 
I'm sorry that this has been your experience and I wish I could help you more. Best of luck.
Hey, I think I figured it out. I wrote another story and literally dumbed it down. I shortened my sentence structures and made the story very straightforward. I also left out almost all simile and metaphor. The story sucks, but it's getting published, and in only 24 hours.

Writing is an extremely rewarding hobby and creative endeavor. I'm always glad to hear others finding success with it, and I'm heartbroken when the AI detector has to step in (and sad it needs to exist at all).

I would be surprised (shocked, really) if sentence length had anything to do with getting flagged, but I would encourage you to otherwise keep your entire process as simple as you can.

Feeling put up on are you?
:unsure:
I remarked that I didn't see you provide any help in the thread. An observation. Not meant as an attack. I was looking for some clue or rhyme or reason for why the Lit AI acts as it does. You haven't indicated any clue for it. So there seems to be no help here. Have you or have you not helped someone over the AI issues? Simple question. If so, what kind of things did you point out that readers could also address?
If you want to know the purpose, I'll refer you to the initial post:

People write what they want. Good thing you have no control over that. It's like trying to herd cats as the expression goes.

No assuming, it's true. As I stated, my MS Word no longer spell checks or offers help as MS declaired it obsolete and whants my $ to subscribe for a new lifetime fee tht I'm not willing to subscribe to. Life is at the end of my rope so I'm not spending time there with MS for something I already bought years ago and functions- well sort of.

Grammarly helps. I am following your comments about trashing the version I submitted, dumbing it down like some one mentioned already and see if a Jane fucks Dick version flies. If it does, I'll let you know.

A bit of humor here... as I type this grammarly wants to make structural syntax changes. LOL. It noted a correction for your work as well. I find that also amusing.

I'm already changing the content so that's not going to happen. I'll see if I can get up the enery to rework it perphs by Christmas. Meanwhile good luck in your efforts to help others.

With some 70 published stories on Lit using the same writing style, this is the firesst encounter with this type of rejection. I'm confident it's not me. It's Lit's AI wingman tha'ts faltering here. The number of indivudals battling rejections and making similar comments as to their writing style is indicative of a flawed AI at Lit.

Your skepticism notwithstanding.

Forgive me if I'm making any unwarranted assumptions, but reading between the lines, it sounds like there might be a change to your workflow involving your writing software and writing tools...

What I meant was that I would have blocked you, specifically, from participating here, because you persist in bad faith interpretations.

Like this one.

In a different post, someone recently counted 2,125 publications on the Lit story side over a 6 day period (I think it was @Actingup ) Allowing for multiple postings from a handful of authors, let's get real conservative and round all the way down to 1,500 individual authors whose submissions went through just fine.

In the last two weeks, I've got you and and Pinkie3_14. 2 against 3000. This is your idea of a big problem?

Now, I know there are more rejections than show up in this thread, but I can only operate on the information in front of me. There might have been 5 more I got rejected threads in the AH over that time period. More than one author always pipes up. Assuming no overlap we'll throw 10 more authors onto the pile.

Now it's 12 vs 3000. That's over two orders of magnitude (and remember, that 1500 in one week is me rounding way, way down) in difference. A staggaring disproportion no matter how you slice it.

Now I suspect it's way more. We only hear about rejections from authors who come here to say anything. I bet the real number for a period like this between 50-100. At this point there's already so many assumptions being made that trying to guess why only 12 out of 100 people behave a certain way is not only pointless, but impossible. I don’t feel comfortable making any guesses about that except to put those numbers next to each other, explain how I got there, and let them stand for themselves.

But you do. You only see how this affects you. Did you even try to grasp the scope here before confidently asserting how bad it is? You feel very comfortable letting your bias, as someone who has received a rejection and who sees plenty of threads talking about it (without interrogating how old some of those posts and responses are), take the wheel and assume the problem is much more widespread than it is because then it's not your problem. Then you're the victim.

And let's be clear. You are. Of callous business practices by Microsoft, and of predatory AI creep by Microsoft and Grammarly. They have fed you a drug, and now you don't know how to not be hooked on it. You don't know how to write a sentence without someone else telling you how to do it. Think about that. That's not me saying that, it's what you have said about yourself.

Literotica, as a platform, has limited options to stop from becoming infested by slop. What they are doing is not a perfect system. There's no such thing.

I would direct you, again, to the initial post of this thread, because everything you seem to want from me, I was very clear I would not do. I will not be talking about tips or tricks for successful publication, because those amount to shortcuts around an AI detector whose purpose I believe in. I will not be telling you how it works.

All that being said, and despite your years now of passive aggression toward me, I am sorry this is affecting you. What you have described is using assistance tools, like a cane, and now Lit has a sign up saying "No canes allowed inside our fancy building where all the cool people are hanging out." That sucks, and I have sympathy. Because I'm a human being.

I think you forget that sometimes.

Future posts like this, that aren't on topic, I will be asking a moderator to simply delete. This is a serious topic and it helps no one to pad out a resource with drama.
