"Authors artificially inflate comment counts by thanking people, I can't find anything with a real comment count to read." No they fucking are not, they're grateful for engagement.

"I can't read anything under 100k." That's the majority of fics you're ignoring, most novels aren't even that long.

"I don't have time to look for the incredibly rare diamond in the rough, so I won't read anything below a certain amount of kudos, comments, and hits." Those fics are popular because people gave them a chance and then snobs like you found them.

"I won't read anthing with a single typos." You made typos in that sentence, get off your high horse.

"One singular author didn't thank me for commenting, I'm never commenting on any fic again so I don't get burned." You're punishing people because someone didn't give you engagement they don't owe you that they might not have seen.

"This fic is three months old, it's so old, it doesn't matter if I comment or kudos, it's old." Fics do not have expiration dates, comment and kudos.

2,948,374 under 10 kudos

Sure! Now, this is definitely incomplete; these are the ones I use most often. If you have any to add, please do!

Penelope Featherington hated champagne. Mostly because it always came with bad news. And the bottle chilling in the silver bucket on her mother’s granite counter glittered like a warning. “Darling,” Portia cooed, draped in silk the color of new money, “this is the opportunity of a lifetime.”

Kitson Fife didn’t beg. Not for territory. Not for loyalty. Not for his life. And yet tonight, as his father laid down the law like a judge passing sentence, he’d nearly fallen to his knees and done the unthinkable.
