#Just want to point out another example of an issue... It's not Enstars exclusive. It just so happened to be under an Enstars fic of mine.

CW below cut: Gore, mention of cannibalism
Nothing really graphic in the comment I am about to show but I want to warn you, in case the mention alone upsets/triggers you. Also I tagged it under "Deep Waters" as a result despite it not being a piece of writing.
Alright so... Something more serious this time... Because I do not want to stay quiet about it.
Tumblr media
I find it sort of funny to be honest. Thank you for letting me know how butthurt you are. I apologize for my wording here.
I have blacked out the user and work (it is nsfw, I do not share these work on this blog) but I find it hilarious how I found this under one of my fics. I deleted it so no worrying about coming across it either anymore.
Actually I just noticed how this was made by a guest who put in a name so there is no account but... Whatever, just in case.
Nothing unusual though sadly. I'd say I'm pretty hardened up by now (I had worse when I was younger, this is nothing new to me. I just laugh it off) but anyone else could take this pretty harshly.
Listen, I'm fine with people not liking my work. That is expected, that's how it is. Not everyone likes everything. I'm also fine with constructive critism, I'm nowhere perfect and always aim to improve.
This type of comment is just a time waster though and can also showcase the unnecessary stigma for canon/oc work. It's not for everyone and that is ok. But please, for the love of god, stop bothering others. Are you aware how you can actually hurt people with comments like these!? Hearing stuff like this can be damaging.
Actually no need to bother with that speecg. It won't stop. Not gonna change anyone's mind, I can't. So instead let me give you advice when you see comments like these under your creative works:
Don't try to start a conversation. You get nowhere with that, believe me. Delete the comment and block the user, then move on with your life. It's the only way to battle this.
Don't feel bad either. You do yourself a favor actually. Comments like these can damage someone mentally eventually. I'm sure you heard it many times but it's true nonetheless.
Alright, I'm done.
Note: I apologize for saying the same thing everyone does probably. I felt like sharing this though. I laugh but I'm also tired seeing it. Some people will hate comment for no reason and it's very old at this point... Kinda sick of seeing it. At most I'm just surprised it didn't happen to me sooner since starting to write OC/Canon for Enstars.
