LostInFictions and there he goes, telling someone else to stop doing what he himself is doing.
Tomoyuki honey, I love the earth so please don't take anything mean you think I said to heart.
Authors deleting reviews
Gourmet_DAO preach nonsense my dear, because you fucking have the right
Well, this shaped up into an absolute shitshow. Imma just go ahead and see myself out
I'm just going to leave this out here. I haven't commented hardly at all about this so far, cause I've been fairly neutral. But if anyone normal person like me that has stumbled upon this, they will likely think twice before reading any of your works ever again, OJ. This is not the way you treat people. Just keep that in mind.
Ramiro_Barrera Well, I do not chase the rating. I write raw materials. I have six short stories. But now I began to rewrite one. In my opinion, both the content and the text have become better. But this reduces the performance of updates.
At the expense of the editor, he needs to pay, as well as the corrector! I don’t have money, I didn’t conclude a contract. And who will work for free? A maximum of 5-6 chapters will be watched.
I objectively evaluate my content with 5 stars, but the quality of the text, the presence of grammatical errors, the difficulty of understanding the text the first time, this gives the text 2 stars. To be honest and honest with ourselves.
And so the overall rating is somewhere around 3 stars.
If I write a novel to the end, if it will be interesting to readers. Then it can be rewritten, by then it is possible either my English will become better, or I can earn a little more money and I can afford either a translator or an editor.
But thanks for your honest opinion, it is expensive. Honesty is the best thing about people when communicating.
It’s easy to scold, you don’t need a big mind. But if a person cannot restrain himself in public, this indicates his weakness. Since politeness in communication is an art for real writers. As for your work, after such a strange and inadequate criticism, I don’t have any interest in reading any of your work.
But this world is not so simple, an evil word will return as a boomerang, bad deeds fall on karma.
Well, here everyone chooses his own path of Light Tao or Dark. It is your choice and you are not the victim of your choice.
OJROMANCE Of course I'm right and I have the right to express my opinion even without swear words. that’s the difference. you don’t know how to conduct a discussion, therefore you get negative reviews. what I was convinced communicating with you.

OJROMANCE you are being so f-ing rediculus. You come into another person's forum, and start attacking LITERALLY everyone. How is this in anyway logical. If you had just come at me, no one would have come at you like this, but since you targeted everyone, with your toxic BS. At this point YOU brought this *ish on yourself. First by giving your book name, 2nd by posting those "negative" reviews and most importantly, by attacking everyone who even questions you. Clearly you are a child who has not yet learned the proper way to hold a discussion

From reading one of your novels, I do see the common issues of grammar and flow that plague a lot of ESL writers. However, I sense a peculiar style of writing that is unique, despite the flaws. I kind of envision a voice of a sage telling detailed stories but sometimes losing themselves in the process. I hope you can find someone that can work with you to polish it.
- Edited
Gourmet_DAO I think, I can certainly help in suggesting some edits. Do drop by the link of your story that you're looking forward to edit. I'll try to take a look the soonest I can manage.
Do continue to write irrespective of anything and everything. Nobody is perfect. We make mistakes. We learn. We improve and I believe - that matters.
Cheers.

Gem4Life Another persons forum which is clearly talking about me ..hmm
. Stephanie (my friend) kept telling me to stop replying you because she also knows that something is not well with your brain but I just love to, so that I can do more of this
You can post false shit about other author's book but not mine, ok. I saw a comment where you and another author were arguing this same matter (false reviews) and that was when I realized that ..men, this girl is seriously, seriously (let me not say it)

kazesenken I try to be objective about myself and others. Therefore, I really appreciate my novel, the content is solid, but the text of the presentation and grammatical errors spoil the matter. My English has become a little better in eight months, but it is still far from good. I hope to make some money and, at the end of the novel, give it to the editor or translator if I write the novel in my native language. But I appreciate your honest opinion about my romance. Now I’m just rewriting the chapters in my last novel about treasure hunters. One kind reviewer told me to use the emotion tesarius, to use less and, for, but, it seems, the text has become easier, more interesting.
Thanks.
LostInFictions Thanks a lot! I have many ideas, a lot of historical information, I wanted to share with it. But my English is not very good. Now I have 6 novels, but these are not so many novels as thoughts, ideas, flow.
The first novel is still frozen, there are ideas, but I can’t translate them into words.
The second novel is about a farmer - I have agricultural knowledge, I have been engaged in agribusiness for two years. But so far I can’t get out of the trap that I created for myself. The main character is stuck in the city and can not go to the farm.
The third - fourth and fifth novels are still raw.
I would like if you have some time to watch my sixth novel, about treasure hunters. I’m just rewriting it now, “The Adventures of Treasure Hunters”.
So far I have rewritten 4 chapters, and 2 chapters (5 and 6) are old, but I will rule them today.
This novel, new, will not have many pages to read, I would be glad if you told me what else to pay attention to. And they gave your honest look at the novel.
Thanks a lot!
Please, yourself a favor and stop. Sincerely, one writer to another, I've seen careers ended by less. I understand you're frustrated, but you instigated this, and keep stirring it back up. Just let it go. You dont have to have people agree with you. Let them roll off your back and focus on writing and improving your craft.

OJROMANCE Never talked about another author's work, so... Okay. Never lied about your book... Sooo... Okay
Never even mentioned your name, You did that.
Was I talking about you... HELL YES, I was. As is my right. When a trash ass human being, such as yourself, can delete and alter someone else's post, I have a right to be mad.
Here's a bit of advice for you, grow up. Stop being such a discusting, vile, waste of oxygen. For you attack people with no idea what the hell they were actually saying, just shows your lack of morals, and common Sense. We were all having civilized discussion before you barged in with over the top and uncalled for display of nothingness. You're right I did call your book rapey, does not mean I said he raped her, look it up. And thank you, I always give honest reviews.
To everyone who came to the conclusion thread, I deeply apologize for the toxic direction it had taken, I will be contacting webnovel to let them know

OJROMANCE
It looks like my hunch was right, you either don't know enough english to write a story, or you run everything through google translate. I said I go to a gynecologist, yet you called me a man...
You're embarassing yourself, and you never responded to my review? I read to chapter 51? Is my review valid? I'm going to post the review onto your book later, lets see if it stays up, since you don't delete reviews.
You're so immature that when the OP says that she started this thread because she was just venting and to not really take it seriously. Frustrated that someone who posts a book publicly could have such a fragile ego, and would harass OP to take it down because it was 'wrong.'
Just because someone is talking about you, doesn't mean you should pop in with insults and gatekeeping, especially when I know kindergardeners who can write better stories, and unlike you, when they don't know what a word means they ask for help.
Your book is only popular because its tags (they're wrong, its not non fiction or contemperary romance), its title (Viiiiiirrrrrrggggiiiiiinnnnnnnn), and its rating. (the secks l m f a o)
Grow up, and when you finally do, understand that you're not above anyone's help.
Cringe.
My god... these women are just ok with a bad book as long as it gets them horny.... I should write a rapey toxic romance.... brb
as a fellow contracted author. I will review this book for myself and see. I'll be fair about it. But based on the synopsis, the title - and what I've heard so far my impression isn't good here.
OJROMANCE You've reviewed one of my books before. So I'd like to be fair here, but your replies to everyone have come across as rude. Negative reviews happen - the people here gave your book a chance. They don't like it. It would have looked better if you kept the review there. I know it looks bad for your stats - but you can't expect everybody to like your work. As a author you have to keep in mind people like different genres. They may or may not agree with what you've written.
Clowniac
Genre: Historical Romance
Place: Korea
Synopsis:
AhnAhn was royal property. A prize won when her father's coup against the emperor failed. Her mother and older brother were spared on one condition: if AhnAhn married the emperor's blind son Wulin.
Wulin was a curious young man, the product of the emperor and a concubine. He was pushed aside, forgotten and spurred by many within. But being the emperor's son, he was well trained in martial arts, his blindless amplifying his senses. He found his fun blending amoungst the common folk. Every night dressing up as a poor man, a common man, a noodle seller and the like.
Currently, he had the most fun disguising himself as a thief, he and his gang robbing carriages by candlelight.
Tonight, was the night AhnAhn would be delivered to the royal palace, and tonight AhnAhn's carriage was in his sights...
Good, bad?
Letting authors delete review at will defeats the entire point of having a review system. It's a way for readers to communicate to readers.
I have sent an email to WB and now I'm just waiting for a response back... If they even send one
Lilliny This reminds me of what happened with another author and his story (it's a cultivation story). The moment someone posts a low-rating review with some criticism, all his readers jumped onto him and basically start harassing, heckling and condemning him until he deletes the review.
Thanks to that, the story has a perfect rating of 5.0 even after 58 ratings. Now, the story itself isn't bad, and is actually well written, to be honest, but...I'm not sure if it's fair to go knock down reviewers and harass them if they write a critical or low-scoring review. It seems pretty dishonest. I don't think it's the author's fault even, it's his rabid fans that actually do it, so don't blame the author. Hell, these fans actually go onto other cultivation stories, downvote them (give them one star ratings and reviews) and criticize them. I don't know if it's real, but apparently they do that so that their favorite author and his book can artificially get above them in the rankings, but I don't think that's how rankings work in Webnovel because that's usually Power Stones (that said, that's how it works in Royal Road, I believe?).
