It is, the when shots now just god I can't stand them and im not trying to be rude but it's making a lot off good ff authors leave due to it. The toxicity of people only liking the when shots and not getting any views on their series or even good stories. We all love writing but it makes us less motivated to even continue due to lack of views comments and ect plus when you search up BTS ff all you get are when shots and oneshots series don't even pop up and that makes me more sad and angry because I look to see series. Every since the when shots started I just stopped reading ffs on yt. I do it to a time to time but not like I used to. It became even more toxic and it hurts to know a lot of good authors having their potentials and series out the door due to this issue in the fanfic community
The same thing goes to the ffs that are like yk long Oneshot that we call a movie they get really less views and I have experienced it. One of my author friend had around 8 or 9k subs but when she posted the movie it got really less views.
Many authors have spoken about this topic and it needs to be more addressed. Similar with you, I started reading ffs in 2019. I remember reading such amazing stories with beautiful plot twists, they were so good. But when I try to find them and read them again, I see that they are deleted, they're gone and all there is left is "when" oneshots. Don't get me wrong, I don't hate those stories. I have nothing against them. But I just keep on seeing them over and over again. That's one of the reasons I started writing on my own, to create a story from my fantasy and to escape my life outside of ffs. It's just really sad seeing amazing authors people used to read don't get as much recommendation as before. The best stories, so far of what I've seen, are the ones with not that many views. I grow sad for the author because I know how hard and difficult it is to edit and write. Sometimes it takes days :/ I feel so so bad for them when they don't get the result they desired. I wish people would stop and realize there's more to stories than just "when" oneshots. I hope those talented authors don't quit :(( they deserve so much more love then they receive.
OMG IM SO GLAD U MADE THIS VIDEO... I hav been trying to watch ffs where there is no violence, cheating, abuse, etc. but it’s been so hard this past month and I am confused why ppl would want to imagine such terrible things happening to them or being done by their idol. I thought it was just me who thought this but I am glad it’s not.
i honestly agree with all of what you said tbh, and i used to be an author too but i deleted my channel bc the ff yt community is getting toxic that i decided to quit, most ff that i always encounter are always the same title, similar plots and the title is kind of getting cringe, and dirty (yk what i mean), and i noticed that they kind of normalized r@pe or abused on their ffs, like think about the ppl who is watching/reading ffs and it contains those that they've been gone through that made them still traumatized. smh
I feel the same. I don't find that much interest in nowadays ffs. It's all when oneshots. I used to like ff so much but now it's just like I feel there is no ff that I can read to escape the world for a moment. But I am glad that you are here. I miss the old ff community. I saw many great authors leaving which broke my heart. But I am happy that you are staying. AND I ALSO BELIEVE THAT OLD FF COMMUNITY WILL COME BACK AND WE WILL BACK HAVE OUR PEACEFUL COMMUNITY! I BELIEVE!
I'm just gonna straight up say, thus this is infact true, even authors spend all of their time for the fans ffs, even sometimes you might delete the ff you made which took days, even weeks. RU-vid and the toxic community needs to stop. And please put warnings in ffs with drugs, 21+ or anything that is viewer discretion. Please pin this so that others can spread more awareness...
i’m so glad u talked about this. and don’t even think that ur being rude bc ur not. our community is just becoming so horrible and there’s so many ppl who hate it just like you and i. i remember the time where u and i had called and went on a rant about this topic. to see what our once created and tight knitted community is becoming is really upsetting. what you’ve said is exactly what has needed to be said. and to all readers out there. please please PLEASE pay attention to warnings whether it’s in the title in the beginning of the video or in the description. it’s horrible and upsetting to see really hard working authors channels get banned or people giving hate comments just because of a really stupid small thing. i could go on for days about this but all i really just wanna say is i miss our old community 🥀
Omggg hiii and yes I will finally talk about that because I can’t stand it anymore and the fact that in few minutes they get over 60k views or shit it’s honestly disappointing I missed the old days too 😩
@@ggvksdemon8744 frrr and i proper came into this community not even thinking about what it wud become and now to see this it’s just so disgusting to me istg
We need to bring back good long oneshots or ff series back In 2018 or 2019 I read so many great ones and could openly ready them all with no restrictions and now everyone either had quit, their channel had been deleted or can't post certain things they want because of youtube and it's sad there used to be so much good stories out there now barely any. It's too toxic now and I just want the old peaceful community back like u said 😥
These are straight facts!!! Like literally some of the best authors out there arent literally getting the recognition they deserve. YOU ARE ONE OF THEM!! Im really happy many of y'all are speaking up on this cuz its quite frustrating, as some people literally just take 5 minutes to write something, post it and boom it blows up, while people who worked there asses off for weeks or even months arent being appreciated. There are many on sensitive topics etc, and ive seen people not giving any warnings before that and THIS CAUSES THEIR CHANNELS TO GET DELETEDDDD ALL HARDWORK WENT TO WASTEEE. Not only that there are some dumb people who are literally reporting videos and channels even though warnings were given. this pisses me off. A bunch of videos are poorly edited as well and the grammar errors etc makes me lose interest. And LIKE EVERYWHERE I LOOK I ONLY SEE WHEN SHOTS OR LIKE USING THE PLOT BUT WITHOUT THE WHEN. The old community i remember it was legit so cool and peaceful, like no author ever disappointeddd. And it makes me kinda sad that some of my favourite authors are literally beginning to post "when"shots as well, forgetting about all the unique masterpieces they used to create. This turned out longer than expected i-
2:47 THIS. I'VE BEEN PLANNING TO USE DIFFERENT NAMES TOO! THIS SERIOUSLY NEED TO BE HEARD, I SOMETIMES CANT GET HOW YOU ALL WANT TO IMAGINE SUCH THINGS WITH YOUR IDOL, CREEPY AND DISGUSTING OK
Heyyy I do have some recommendation in the channel section on my channel (idk if you understood but you can see that there is a channel features somewhere you can check some authors they are all as great)
@@heloo948 channel: 'ggukasaurus' start off with 'the prince behind the closed doors' its a fantasy + royal au (i love fantasies thats why-) its 50 minutes long and she was the reason why i came up to other author's channel like rn, then look up 'prince jeon' its a royal au again and its a series, i have so much fun watching it! (ALSO! SUPERNATURAL ACADEMY TOO
Toxic people reporting ff with a viewer discretion warning of 18+,21+.and they are ok with when he cheated with your sister/bestfriend.i don't have any problems with author writing one shot or when shot they are doing what they love to do by sharing their talent . But to those people who report please live on your own zone not need to distroy someone's hard work. There are so many readers who love reading series with all the details, plot twist. We love the story so much that we even read again after many days so we search and if didn't find any even the author name our blood really boiled . We have so many author who left the channel because you tube is not playing a fair game . I'll PROUDLY SAY I PREFER SERIES
Omg this happened to my channel!!😭I had a series for 18+ and it was age restricted yet I was TERMINATED. I literally just hit 1k subs and the next day, my channel got taken down...so now I just write one shots😭
And then the whole issue with yts guidelines. Authors getting their channels deleted and shadowed banned plus videos tooken down for no reason at all because people are reporting their videos. Not once did I think when I joined in 2020 that this would become so toxic and it did. I love writing but the yt community even the community on Instagram is so unmotivating and it does hurt for a lot of authors who want to get their amazing and beautiful stories out there but can't due to all the issues this community have with toxic authors, the fans, people reporting, yt ect. I don't want to sound mean or rude but this is me as an author sees it.
like it's like very idea is taken and people keep taking ideas or videos and this community keeps repeating the same thing in their stories, cheating ect. It gets on my nerves cause it's not even a good story but people love it. I always add an warning to my stories if it is any triggering plus you do my have to read it and I tell my fans and authors do but they still report even then everyone should put a warning on their videos even if it is not triggering. I would be massive trigger warnings on if my stories is sensitive and some of them are but it explains why. I try not to do it but sometimes the stories goes like that but I don't know this community just makes me uneasy
