So ao3 [dot] life is a website whose domain was JUST registered today, with millions (?) of fics as audiobooks within their database. Honestly this is highly suspicious β DO NOT email this site for taking your fics down, they have no business knowing that kind of information.

please DO NOT give these people the e-mail associated with your ao3 accounts. since this is monetized and directly referencing them, itβs more likely that ao3 and their legal team themselves can work on a takedown request, or at least provide instructions on how to do it safely. DO NOT DOXX YOURSELF TO AN AI SLOP SITE.

All of my fics (and 15 million fics!) have been scraped from AO3, published without permission on this site, and they're SELLING automated readings as audiobooks of fics for actual money.
And people wonder why we don't want mass drives of fics shared around without care.

Blue check accounts getting nearly 10 million views on their tweets about their Google drives and fic writers are the fame hungry wannabe influencer capitalists for wanting a comment or two π

I donβt know why people want to fight me about this but you absolutely do own the copyright to your written text, your prose, your sentences, and you donβt need to register it or anything

For those of you fighting writers who keep asking for their work to not be thrown around like candyβ¦this is directly from AO3βs T&Cs.
tldr: if you donβt have direct permission, then you Donβt Have Permission.

i don't have an issue with people downloading my fics for their own use, but i think uploading them and making them widely available on a site i have not agreed to have them on without my consent is a little bit different
I call this karma for all the complaints about writers π
We estimate that service restoration for #AO3 will take around 2 weeks but it could be up to 4 weeks. We are hopeful that we will be able to bring the site back up in a degraded state sooner. Refer to our status page for updates: otwstatus.org/

let's all use this time to reflect bc the instant misery people express when they can't access fic for just 12 hours is at odds with the slew of ungrateful/judgemental posts from readers i am seeing far too frequently atm
#AO3 maintenance is in progress. We expect it to take at least 12 hours, but it may take longer. We will provide updates as necessary. Refer to our status page for updates: otwstatus.org/incidents/g12jβ¦

y'all are confused because you're treating fanfic writers like influencers but they're reacting like regular people.

you're laughing? I have been so fortunate as to be distinguished by the patronage of Lady Catherine de Bourgh and you're laughing?

Kirsten Vangsness admitting that Penelope Garcia was actually always in love with Derek Morgan in the year 2026 was not on my bingo card, oh my God, WE REALLY COULD HAVE HAD IT ALL π

what am I allowed to write then? they don't like info dumping, but also they will accuse u of ai writing if you do short sentences/paragraphs. they hate the dialog bc it ain't canon but also hate character studies. grab a pen and stick it in your eye. thanks.

"why are fic writers suddenly incapable of writing realistic arguments" "fic writers include too much exposition i already know these people" "fic writers need to stop using says so much" "what's the point of posting < 1000 word fics" i am going to hit you with my car
