Let's sing around a campfire and sing the campfire song

    We can always go and spam them with the review that they deserve. I mean 1 for world building 1 for character design and 1 for story development. The 2 remaining categories require checking few chapters to rate the writing quality. Stability of updates just checks the table of contents. They don't create worlds, characters or stories. How can I give them 5 stars for the copy-pasted thing? If it was separated, I wouldn't care its some kind of entertainment.

    KoraL I thought we would start the web novels police. When heavens are not just! We must become justice for the future!
    Sometimes I lose my mind though. Better than wasting time on these novels, we could support real authors there! I don't know what to do because whatever we do. It's useless because these people are not rational.

      The real essence of original novel is now gone because all we do is copy or go into those mainstream stuffs. There are a lot of novels that are clearly original buried underneath the piles of fanfictions. I'm not fond of reading fanfictions because I much prefer something new and fresh. I pity those authors whose books are buried underneath these piles.

        All fanfics should be deleted from web novel. If they cannot handle separating them, they should delete them. It's actually good for their business because I doubt any of "author" of fanfics will ever get the copyright to make money on the fanfics. Contracting the fanfics is out of the option. So why it's still there? It won't bring any money? It's only making, the possible contracted artist lose chances of being popular. I really like this site but their policy is really bad.

        I have several original stories that I'm writing, here and on other mediums. I also have a fanfiction that I've enjoyed writing. I think it meets your standards of "originality," in the sense that the cast and plot are my creations. I just love the world the original content takes place in. What's your opinion on that?

          J_Tyler It's not like all fanfics are bad and so on. There is one ranking for fanfics and originals. Mb fanfics have some originality in it but it's not original. Imagine yourself one test in school and you are doing everything by yourself and you get 5 points but the person next to you is cheating and gets 7 points. Both of you are judged by the same grading but you put all your sweat and blood into getting these points and the second person just cheated and got more points than you. How are you feeling?
          Let's say you love "Naruto" world and you write fanfic in it. As a writer, you can predict that some part of Naruto fanbase will come and read your fanfic.
          People that write originals don't have such easy start. Talking about what is easier. It's obvious that writing fanfic is easier. You need to meet their expectations for your fanfic. You cannot change their characters. That's a load of bullshit. The original writers don't need to meet expectations but the problem is that they need luck to actually have anyone read their stories. Original ranking spammed by trashy fanfics is taking their chance to get readers.
          Another thing is that 70% of fanfics here is really low quality. So your chance was taken by a cheater and this cheater is really bad. How do you? I would be really angry you know :D

            KoraL lol.... its cause i have this rule when visiting wiki type sites with links hidden all over the place....

            and that rule is: if you are in the page that you are looking for..... then stay on that page

              Hello! Just discovered this thread. I read fan fiction AND original writing. I also think that while fan fiction may be MUCH easier to write, well-written fan fiction is still very enjoyable! But yeah, I agree, they should either have a separate section or just not allow fan fiction. Why? Because I didn’t come here for fanfics. I came to webnovel because I wanted a xianxia/eastern fantasy story. If I wanted fantasy/litRPG, I would have gone to royal road legends. If I wanted fan fiction, I would have gone to fan fiction . net or archiveofourown. Also, if I’m in the original section, I’M NOT LOOKING FOR FAN FICTION. IT’S IN THE NAME. ORIGINAL. Yep.

              Keep this thread alive!
