I'm aware people sometimes drop particles like 은/는 in sentences when speaking but would that only apply to particles after nouns or would someone drop the 는 after 너는?

This is something thats been working my nerve for a while now. Reader inserts are sort of a dying art because people think theyre cringe or whatever and ever since teenagers got ahold of ao3 on Tiktok its only been getting worse. So nothing, and I mean NOTHING, gets me more heated than when I go to read an interesting sounding reader insert fic only to find out in like the first few paragraphs that the reader insert is not actually a reader insert. Now I've been reading reader inserts since i was a wee teen myself and as a genderqueer poc I've learned to ignore certain descriptions that would imply gender or race. And to clarify nicknaming your /reader to avoid the use of "Y/n" is not immersion breaking, but tagging your fic as /reader and then starting your fic with ((and this is just an example))

"Stacy rouse from slumber. Her long milkly white arms reaching back to throw her long blonde hair into a messy bun, her blue orbs squinting from the invading sun."

​

Who is that?????? Who is that and how did she get into my house??? It brings me out of a fic so fast. Don't get me wrong. I have no problem with /oc fics I mean it would be hypocritical of me to. But why would you use purely/reader tags if the fic is not /reader??????

​

"B-but if I use /oc then no one will read my fic🥺🥺"

​

So????? Do you only write fics for the satisfaction of other people?? That sounds like actual hell. Besides, are there people that wouldn't touch a /oc with a ten foot pole? Yes. But if your fic is interesting enough there's a guarantee someone read it. And writing fanfic for purely self indulgent reasons is like 90% of the fun anyways. AND deliberately mistagging your fic on the site that's so anal about tags is just opening yourself up to hate comments. I don't understand the thought process behind doing this. Sure your fic might have alot of hits, but surely you realize that the majority of people that click on your fic immediately leave because thats not what their looking for? Not to mention it would be so much easier to just write the fic as you tagged it especially if you see it's getting alot of hits.

​

I'm begging yall, TAG YOUR FICS CORRECTLY.

​

This problem is just as bad as when you find a fic with your fav pairing and all your go to tags only to click on the fic and see something like "how does this site work lolol 🤪"

​

To all the people that do this I curse you with ten red lights when your already running late and 3 stubbed toes😡😡

Autistic 24(f) currently unhoused living in a tent at the moment. If anyone can swing it $25 just to keep my phone on for another month would mean the world. Access to my email and texts when i cant swing by the library is critical for me ((context: its been raining alot and when it rains i cant leave my tent or it will flood so limited library access))
