Re: How High Is RR standard toward its fiction?
In my experience, the average story I find on RR is better than the average story I find on KU. It might just be that amazon is trash and makes their search trash on purpose. Or it might be an overall (...)

Re: Personal take on forum behavior & problems with ratings
I think, ultimately, the whole issue might be rooted in the necessity of the 5-star review for meaningful traction gain and visibility. Perhaps we're discussing the symptoms instead of the cause. Maybe (...)

Re: Personal take on forum behavior & problems with ratings
Between anything less than 5-star reviews being seen as taboo and people's works receiving 0.5-star ratings purely out of spite, I'm very much of the opinion that the rating system here simply isn't that (...)

Re: Become a Glass of Tepid Water
My Qi sense tingles as I contemplate The paradox of The Dao of Chill producing a tepid temperament.

Re: Superpowers
The coolest superpower, while incredibly powerful is not necessarily the most powerful or the most unbeatable. The most powerful would be control of space/time. The most unbeatable is mind control. (...)

Re: What techniques do you personally use to create believable and relatable characters
The real secret is to meet, know and interact with REAL people. If you can't imagine a scenario where some real person you know would act a certain way. Then don't try to railroad a character in (...)

Re: Are System stories played out?
Are they played out? No way!, there is loads of room left to explore and expand. There is however a sufficient story base in existence that simply *having* a system can no longer carry a story. (...)

Re: Ethically, if you're using AI, your creation should be labelled as such
It's slowly sinking past the *youtube comment* tier and swiftly approaching the *TikTok comment* level.

Re: Ethically, if you're using AI, your creation should be labelled as such
This is outrageous. Where are the armed men who come in to take the AI users away? Where are they? This kind of behavior is never tolerated in Baraqua. You talk to an AI they put you in jail. Right away. (...)

Re: Ethically, if you're using AI, your creation should be labelled as such
China's passed new regulation banning AI-generated art without watermarks demarcating it as such, hopefully similar regulations will be passed in other countries soon. I think this counts as an honorary (...)

Re: Ethically, if you're using AI, your creation should be labelled as such
it's about the AI learning by scraping the content of others and not giving them the option to opt-out. You should definitely make a website for "ethical" stories only. Of course you won't need genres (...)

Re: Ethically, if you're using AI, your creation should be labelled as such
Yea no. You lack understanding and nuance. Did you know that we are almost where I could set up some parameters, and then click a button and make the AI write the entire story for me, without almost 0 (...)

Re: Ethically, if you're using AI, your creation should be labelled as such
I'm in the camp that if any part of a text is created by AI, it has to have a large and bright tag on it saying so. How to enforce that? I have no idea. Yea, you or anybody else. because you can't. (...)

Re: What do you think about chatGPT?
Seemingly more impressive than GPT-3 AFAIK it's based on GPT gen 3.5 So it's just a progression. The primary advancements made that are on display with the new demo is not actually the chat (...)

Re: What makes characters unrelatable?
Is that normal here? I don't mean your story, I mean what the average viewer expects. I know very little about what people mostly read here and what they are hoping to see. If that's the case you're definitely (...)

Re: What makes characters unrelatable?
Apparently, based on the way I tend to get sudden low ratings at one particular chapter, a character that decides to act submissive (even if it's entirely for show or to manipulate someone and totally (...)

Re: What makes characters unrelatable?

Re: A Woman With a Problem
I am imagining an 8ft tall gay minitaur, who treats him as he treats her. Ah, yes. The wonderful double-standard thing. Because of course someone would love to be treated in because they're of the (...)

Re: What makes characters unrelatable?
Well, yes. My theory only describes characters I personally find unrelatable. And I do not claim it's unique to anime, just that is the genre that best explains the odd characters I have seen (...)
