Right. So, why don't you specify what tags that would be then?

Drawde wrote:Not trying to be rude here, but "AU" is an example of a tag. This is exactly what tags are meant for. As I mentioned above you're just as likely to find a bad fic without a tag as one with. The problem is I don't think you like certain common tropes within fanfiction. At least the tags are doing their job: letting you know that you won't like certain fics.

I commented that any story that has a summary contains modifiers like Smart!Naruto is far more likely than not to be bad because it's the vast majority of the time replaces, and I quote, "the main characters with Mary Sues of your own creation with their names" As such I have no desire to read them because, again, the odds are far in my favor that they're bad.
You than went on with me about... what? Judging bad stories harshly?

Pata Hikari wrote:OK fine.
Tags should contain information about the major characters involved in the story, properties of the story such as AU, Divergence, etc. And any trigger warnings for sensitive content like violence or sexual assault.

Like, I don't even know why you're so offended at this?
