Honestly, fanfiction.net was my first site to end up writing fanfictions.
The pros of the website is that you can post you fics for free and put anything random on your profile. The cool features they had was highlighting, and copy and paste. But to protect the text and idea's of other people's stories, they disabled the highlighting/ copy and paste.:(
But you can still do that in Mobile version on desktop! XD
So, I had just listed the cons and I was about to go to the pros which is Private Messaging (only if the other user is roleplaying.)
The site has the perfect place to Private Message to another user. Maybe now I use it to only PM users and update my stories very rarely. Depending on what my schedule is.: P
Perfect site for PMing! XD
Yeah, I typed that that way in case this website profanity filter actually works. This dumb website has a few features with Anonymous reviews in the settings like Moderate Guest Reviews and Filter Profanity in the reviews section of their account settings. Both of which are on and both of which are useless. This one guy with a name I won't repeat is ruining this website because of it. The name is close to not222thename9999. This guy is constantly on here putting up Anonymous reviews with advertisements for lewd content. Since the website is going through failures this guy got brazen enough to straight post child pron advertisements in all bold. No way to report or filter it. The entire feature should be removed until you have the filter content issues corrected or at least make us moderate every comment on our content no matter the content. It looks bad on the writer to have comments like this pop up on their works. It's embarrassing and disgusting. This is one of the oldest running fanfiction websites. It should be run better than this. The status portion of the site has been down for months, sometimes we don't get any notifications of any comment or anything. It's very disappointing that this site is run so poorly and yet has been around for so long. Do better.
Here is a picture from the review I got on my account that prompted this hate review.
The site is okay but the they could have more attentive admins and I loved it when they used to have a spell check in the document editor. I hope they bring that back.
Rape stories are allowed and I didn't even need to log in to read it. Can't imagine what young teens read.
