about deactivating and translations (again)
Okay, so firstly, I deactivated because I wanted to rest (even for a day otl) from the messages that I have been receiving.
It’s written there on my profile that I’m not allowing translations because of particular reasons, and I’m really uncomfortable with it. I know my fics aren’t like the great or classic ones but they are mine. I think this gives me the right to decide what to do or what not to do about them. As of now, I’m still really not comfortable with people translating it and putting their own interpretation of my fics. It’s not my goal to become popular anyway, I’m content with the amount of loyal readers I currently have. If you really want other people who are not English-speakers to read my fics (which I appreciate) maybe you can just re-tell the story to them?
What I really don’t appreciate is getting rude messages asking me again and again on why I don’t want to give permission. I answer those messages but what I get are more rude replies, with someone going as far as saying I’m so selfish. L And after several posts about ‘no translations’ please, I still see people putting up my fics on their sites... what’s up with that? u___u
So WHAT TO DO?
It’s either I stand my ground and not let my fics be translated or let go of all my fics and just don’t care about them and not write anymore since people don’t seem to care about what I want. I’m sharing my stories because I love my ships and I love meeting people who ship them too and keep the ship alive and just basically share my feels, I don’t really think I deserve such treatment? (or do i? orz)
But my sister told me to reactivate the account and I did get a lot of messages on twtr and tumblr asking me to reactivate. So I’m going to for this last time. I just want people to know I’m serious. Maybe a lot of ppl don’t really care whether I disappear from the face of the earth or not but what I’m saying is that I’m serious, okay?
I bet this will be ignored again...orz
