AO3 Etiquette

It would seem a whole new kind of AO3 reader/writer is emerging and it is becoming clear not everyone quite understands how the website community works. Here is some basic guidance on how most people expect you to go about using AO3 to keep this a fun community archive that funtions correctly:

Kudos is for when the story was interesting enough to make you finish reading. If it sucked or was badly written, you probably left. If you finished - you kudos.

If you liked it, you should comment. It can be long and detailed or a literal keysmash. Writers don't care, we just love comments.

No critisism unless the author has specifically asked or agreed to hear it. Even constructive critisism is a no-no unless an author note tells you it's okay. Many people write as a fun hobby or a way to cope with, among other things, insecurity. Don't ruin that for them.

Do not comment to ask the author to write/update something else. It's tacky and off-putting and will probably have the opposite effect than the one you want.

There is no algorithm, it's an archive. Use the search and filter function to add/remove the pairings/characters/tropes etc. you want to read about and it will find you the fics that fit the bill.

For this to work, writers must tag and rate stories. This avoids readers finding the wrong things and missing the stuff they want. I don't care how cringy that trope is in your eyes - it gets tagged.

Character A/Character B means a ROMANTIC or SEXUAL relationship of some kind. Character A&Character B is PLANTONIC, like friendship or family.

Nothing is banned. This is an implicit rule because banning one thing is a slipperly slope to banning another and another, until nothing is allowed anymore. Do not expect anyone to censor for you. Because of the tags system, you are responsible for your own reading experience.

People can create new chapters and sequels/fic series any time after they "complete" a story. So it's considered perfectly normal to subscribe, even to a finished story. You can even subscribe to the author instead just to cover your bases.

Do not repost stories or change the publishing date without an extremely good reason (like a complete top to bottom rewrite). It's an archive, not social media. No one cares what's the most recent, only what fits their tag needs.

Avoid deleting a story you wrote if you hate it - orphan it so others can still enjoy it, without it being connected to you anymore.

This is a creative fanfiction archive. No essays on your insights or theories please. There are other places for that.

I KNOW there's plenty more I missed but I'm trying to cover most of the basics that people seem to be struggling with.

I invite anyone to add to this, but please explain, don't berate.

OK, one more

I couldn’t sleep very well last night and so I decided to go through the comic again, because there is always something new to discover. And I found something I haven’t thought about before.

On the Market, RGB asked Watcher for a service and the owl looked at his hand as a payment. He just RIPPED his hand clean off. Why didn’t he offer just the glove? He fed the owl buttons from his jacked after, so I think just the glove would be also sufficient.

And I then thought that maybe the gloves alone worked as his hands, but he CAN take of his gloves. Earlier in the comic, he asked Madras for new pair after their encounter with Fears.

There is also something I noticed during their staying at Cell’s. He got his hand replaced with rabbit foot. And the paw changed into his hand, along with his glove. And during the change he doesn’s say the ‘magic words’. It makes me really question about how his body works and his position in the story/world.

Hero is surprised by the change and he mumbles: “Or, rather I did not...”

What the hell did he meant by that?

They really should teach people how to cook in school.

Nothing beats the food machine 😄

This helps so hacking much!
