  1. According to FB adverts, today, I’m apparently a dentist.  Didn’t realize I was so talented!

  2. That’s the ugly truth of the legal system, rights extend farther when you can afford good lawyers. And yes, EVERY minor is totally a rules follower and would simply go away … like how sexual urges and fantasies are bequeathed on their 18th birthday, and every boys school locker room is a point of clean jovial fun, at least according to the various TOS I frequently find at various websites. (And that’s something I have to be careful on with my writings.)
  3. My take was from my personal experience, haven’t really experienced the real downsides that you’ve mentioned (yet), and cross my fingers, I won’t. (Got one person who’ll popup with a comment every few months – “write me a game of thrones crossover fanfic?” on my potter story, like my first “NO” didn’t get the point across.) They did recently institute a 75-tag-per-story limit, so unfortunately I had to pare some of mine down. In the staff question topic too. I could see this going into a different topic like the “Great Wall of.” Now, TBH, the looseness inthe rules is one of the things that drew my potter fanfic to AO3. It technically crossed a line here, but was alright there without having to “file off the serial numbers”.
  4. I’ve used both archives. I admit, I prefer AO3 over AFF for story posting; better UI, I can use style sheets instead of text-formatting-games, better search, and more statistics (Kudos, word counts, etc). They do more aggressive fund raising, so likely a fully funded coding staff, something AFF lacks. However, the forums here… AO3 doesn’t have that, which means the staff/member interaction is way better here. As to procrastination, we still have the chatbox, the successor to the shoutbox.
