Your Secrets as a ScribbleHub User...

[Deleted member 29316]

Well, just as the title says, what are your secrets as a ScribbleHub User? It could be a dark secret, or something trivial. Mine would be...I do 5* bombing runs to encourage an author to write (with skimming through the work first, of course), irregardless whether I like the genre or not.

My reason for that is, if I liked the work, it's a 5*. If not, then I wouldn't rate at all, and contact the author about what I don't like.

I'm the opposite. Whenever I feel down I go to the most popular works in the trending tab and read the negative reviews. It isn't seeing my competition crippled that gets me going but knowing there's potential readers I can reel in.

"Hey, I heard you don't like this. Well, MY story don't got that shit. Try mine instead!"

A great way to also know what the readers like or don't like in a genre.

My dark secret would be...

muttering curses every time I upload chapter because I still don't know how to put pictures.

Some people would (and will) say that can be worse than one-star trolling.

I don't know what it is, but I am attracted to negative reviews. I look to see if any story has them and then read the actual story in search for these negatives. In some, I found the negative reviewer to be full of shit (most of the others were right on the mark, sadly).

I believe there is a tutorial that could guide you through that process (maybe?).

Wait, a bit...I got a tutorial for that...

See! Told you.

As for me? I would follow many ScribbleHub authors and mark down their stories as something I am reading (aka: bookmarked), but I've yet to take a peek at a single word (I've got a lot of catching up to do).

Well, before I bomb it, I skim through the work and if I liked it, I'll bomb with 5*.

At least you are positive towards them.

Yah, I know what it feels like to be bombed with 1*, so I don't want to pass that to others. If I didn't like the work, I'd simply pass over and/or leave a comment of what I didn't like for the author to read.

Also, I kind of forgot the title of the tutorial I made about uploading pictures in SH...>.<

I was going to suggest Yorth's guide. There are two threads containing a tutorial on using ScribbleHub's Text Editor.

This is really cute wtf.

My dark secret is... I'm only logged into SHF, not the main site, so I can read stories privately without my account showing up on "recent readers".

I wasn't aware of that feature. It tracks which corners you've been peeking around?

I have no secrets! I am as pure naked as in my birthday suit.

Yep! It's on the statistics page of every story:

Shows both the latest chapter they read and how long ago.
