I do want people to read my stuff! Just, not all people. It's aimed at a niche audience of people who have un-normal fantasies/like specific... I don't want to say kinks because it's beyond kinky... extreme perversions? Hence my warning about paying attention to the codes at the start of each one, and by inferance title and summary So, to take an example from one of my original stories: Title: Whore of Heaven Summary: The beautiful Archangel Luzurial is all that stands between humanity and the demon Eparlegna. Earth is screwed, and so is she. Codes: Anal,Angst,Bond,COMPLETE,Contro,Dom,F/F,Humil,Language,MCD,MiCD,M/F,OC,Other,Preg,PWP,Rapefic,SoloM,Tent,Tort,Violence,Xeno Firstly I'd hope a reader would consider the title. "Hmmm... Whore. Sounds degrading. I will avoid this story" or "Hmmm... Whore. It's a job title. I'll give it a try." or even "Yum! Whore! Heaven!" So Reader one would hopefully go no further. Then with the summary, "...Sounds like stereotypical angel/demon pr0ns. Meh." or "yeah!" Then the codes, and now I will put myself into the mind of a perceived average user rather than both sides Anal,Angst,Bond,COMPLETE,Contro,Dom,F/F,Humil,Language,MCD, MiCD,M/F,OC,Other,Preg,PWP,Rapefic,SoloM,Tent,Tort,Violence,Xeno Anal "Well, gawsh, I'm on AFF. You better damn well believe I like anal. It's not in the Harry/Draco cat, but it's probably much the same. Anuses self lubricate, right?" Angst "YES! I love angst! You can't have a relationship without it!" Bond "I liked that one where that guy tied that other guy up!" COMPLETE "....oh well. Maybe I can review and ask for an update?" Contro "I like a little bit of controversy, but not too much. Like, Dumbles could be partly redeemable while still maniupulative and evil?" Dom "Still my kind of thing! Every story I have ever read displays the characters immediately in a sub/dom relationship." F/F "Yuri? Ewww. I can skip those bits." Humil "As long as it isn't the yuri bit!" Language "Swearing? In my sex? Oh no." At this point, most would move onto a different story. This is why the Language code is very important. Those who continue, MCD "Death? of a main character? I only really approve of that if it's to give the angst that gets the guys together... What does this have to do with angel/demon sex anyway?" MiCD "Who cares about minor characters? It's original fic, they're all minor!" M/F "...you sick fuck. But I'm slightly curious." OC "There's no M/M tag? Goddamn it, this is AFF! Does it need an OC tag in the original section? Seems kind of anal. Mmmm anal..." Other "Is that an old code? Is there still an Other code? What other?" Preg "That's gross! Unless it's a typo and supposed to be mpreg... but, no, there's no m/m tag. I'm not too sure about this story." PWP "You got me back." Rapefic A very important tag (as was the NC tag it replaced). Most people understandably don't like this kind of content and it's better for them and me if they don't read it. In this case our imaginary reader would hopefully realise that the angel/demon screwing going on is M/F rapefic and stop reading if they don't enjoy that sort of thing. Rather more do seem to enjoy m/m rapefic, but in quite a lot of those cases it seems to lead immediately to true love. Huh. SoloM "I wonder if I can just get an extract of that scene?" Tent "They go camping?" *checks codes "in Japan?" Tort "I don't mind it in the right context but based on the codes I have already seen I do not want to see this." Violence "...or this." Xeno "Although paradoxically I do like bearded Greek men who... what? it's non-human crittera/alien fucking? M/F at that?" "No, on balance this is not my kind of thing at all. I will find a story I want to read with codes/summary/title I like." So that's kind of my perfect ideal, with people who'd like it reading it, and people who don't, not. Instead I get people seeing the codes, title, and summary and responding with this stuff. But I also recognised that it is published on the internet, where despite the warnings and codes anybody can see it. If I really wanted to make sure other people didn't read it, I could probably make the effort to set up some subscription only mailing group of diehard weirdos, but I didn't. I posted to AFF and hoped people would only have time to read stories that hit their fetish I have published and I am damned. Does this make sense?

Well, if I'm not going to read your stories, then I'll just keep reading your forum posts! You're hilarious!

"Now Hermione faces new challenges of love, lust and Volemort" Rodent death is a true challenge - how best to bring it about? Poison, traps, flypaper? A conundrum, to be sure.
