This is the response I got to Paris, an old Clex story of mine:

Sicko writer. Yuk. :(

This was my response to that comment:

Non-con
Incest
Drugged Sex
Dubious Consent
Prostitution
Alternate Universe
Familial Abuse

Did none of those tags give you any warning of what the subject matter would be? At any rate, thank you for your articulate and concise review of the story.


Normally I don't engage these folks, but that just made me crack up--I'm reading my mail and I burst into laughter when I read that. And then, I got a little bitchy as you can see.

The story isn't the best, I'd be the first to admit it. Plus, it was written back in the day, when you could write stuff that seemed terribly naughty but is really pretty tame by today's standards. I didn't reread the fic--I don't think I could, I mean, it's really, really early fic! As the commenter put it, "yuck." No, pardon me--"Yuk."

If I'd posted it with the manip that inspired the story, I probably would have been able to save this poor person's eyes. :)

It's probably just me, but AO3 seems recently infected with juvenile trolls. The comments I've read till now on my own and others' work have been civil, even if unapproving, and with a degree of, oh, sentence-making.

In the last month or so, though, text and tweet-speek seem to have invaded, with bad spelling and some viciously malicious sentiments, expressed in sentence fragments, sometimes just in four or five unrelated words. I fear for the language. I don't think these are readers, honestly. I think they're feral children who've found new grounds to troll.

I didn't know there was a rash of this idiocy! If so, I think it is children, and they're probably spurring each other on, hoping to stir up trouble. I mean, really--it was *such* a stupid comment all I could do was laugh and slap back a little. When they get really vicious, I don't respond, hopefully nipping that crap right in the bud.
