Aaky, your response to AliceShiki:
You are literally so toxic that I could make a topic about my concerns with trending [While I am trending #1] and you'll still find a way to attack my character one way or another.
Just wanted to point this out, AliceShiki doesn't look like they're being toxic here. I have seen toxic people commenting on certain groups of people since last year til now and I have seen some of those toxicity on forums too. I have also seen Wattpad readers threatening and swearing at authors horribly when they decided to become part of Wattpad Paid stories.
While I don't agree with everything AliceShiki's may say, the posts I've seen them comment on so far don't seem toxic at all, or at least what I know of. Its not labeling a whole group as such and such. Their points here are pretty valid, Aaky. Then again, I don't go out of my way to read through every single posts by others on here all the time.
I prefer to ignore and avoid toxicity where I can, cause it just drains you at the end of the day. But AliceShiki did gave valid points but you didn't accept it. And that's when both of you begin to get down at each other. But if you compare with those examples above, I think they are kinda far cry from actual horrid toxcity.
I can see where you are coming from and I do understand your concerns. But the purpose of this post is not to ban other sites, but to wage the community's support to banning a specific site. No change will inherently happen as the result of this topic, but a conversation/discussion might emerge from it.
The point is,
you want WebNovel banned. As much a lot of people may hate WebNovel, but there's still
some that still use it. That is up to the authors who post links to WebNovel themselves on their series.
I have seen people on Wattpad only post a few chapters into a story and then tell you to go read it on Radish or buy the story. Yet Wattpad, depite that, doesn't ban it (idk if that has changed).
Inkitt from what I heard, gives horrible deals to authors who wish to see their stories published in print with them. Since Inkitt has some controversies treating their authors as such, should we ban them too?
It kinda feels like you are deflecting other peoples arguments with the same reason over and over again that WebNovel bans all others' competitors sites, so we should ban them too.
However, like others have pointed out, this opens up a can of worms. Because after WebNovel there's probably gonna be other sites that also do something that is horrible too (and pretty sure those already exist, on some varying levels).
You can ask others to not use WebNovel - that is based on personal preference and I can see why people wouldn't want to link WebNovel. But forcing ScribbleHub to ban it? It shouldn't be a competitor's responsibility to ban a horrid competitor site, rather that site needs to get fixed by something else that has higher grounds of forcing them to change and make it a better place for their authors. Again, not ScribbleHub's responsibility to ban another reading platform. That is something outside of ScribbleHub.
But then again, your account is from 2018. I bet that if I were to respond to people the way you respond to me, I would be in hot water.
