Because yeah, let's have the ten-year-old kids know they just stood by and did nothing while the villains died a horrible death. Because my story was never "edgy" enough for Sally and her friends.

    At this point, I kind of just want to delete my fanfiction account and move everything to Ao3.
    It's definitely Sally. Sour, salty Sally.

    Up to you, but I still feel it's a shame that this is what it has come down to. Don't take it to heart, though. No matter what you do, there's haters that feed off of frustration and discontent, but don't take it personally. I've seen your work and it's inspirational and impressive. Stick to your guns and remember the compliments you receive. Forget the insults.

    Also, I love your plushie work. If I ever need something like that commissioned, I know just who to reach out to. :3

    Yeah, I hate that this stuff would be forcing me off the site, but on the other hand, I really don't get any meaningful comments or interaction there anymore. So maybe it's time to move on. There's no way to disable guest comments, and I really don't want to deal with all this stress for so little reward. I can't completely delete the account, but I can delete all my stories and change the email on it so people can't use that account to contact me. I can put the older stories I want up on Ao3 so they can still be read (you can disable all comments, there, I think). But yeah, I will try to do that! This is like 75% of the reason I've been so discouraged lately, and these people don't want to have an intelligent conversation with me, they just want to order me around.

    And thank you! I got frustrated with plushie making because of people flaking out on me recently (and wasting all my time and effort for nothing), but I should get back into that, even if it's just to make pre-made things to sell (that I know WILL sell) or things just for me. (I'd totally trust you to stick with your commission though. c: Just not random people.)
