I'm giving up on AO3!
Feb. 23rd, 2016 07:53 pmNo, seriously! I've tried to import a very long story from
hiddenrealms, did all the prep work, and the site told me that they can't import it from there for some reason. The same happened with a 25-chapter story from SoA. I tried to import the same story as one big chunk, and the site told me that a story has already been imported from that url, which I happen to know that it hasn't.
So long, AO3. I'm not going to hand-code stories that are several dozen chapters long all again, just because you aren't willing to accept imports. I'm too old and work too long hours to waste my time with that.
Honestly, the only user-friendly archives are FF.Net, which is full of crap and mean-spirited readers, and SoA, where I'm not allowed to post half of my stuff. Things like this can kill what little inspiration I can find to write!
