Posting stuff like intensive character profiles and relationships before the story even begins. Update after update of nothing but gushing over their own OCs and their "ships". Like see....
- This is a spoiler in and of itself.
- Show me their relationships, don't tell me about it B(
- Why should i care without context?
This happens a lot in Slice of Life/Drama/Comedy/Romance comics.
It basically tells me you don't have a plan and i have no reason to get invested in this story. I understand the excitement of showing how cool your OCs are to the world. But this kind of stuff completely ruins the reading experience, plot twists, or just shuts down any kind of speculations and conversations in the comments cuz we already know a whole lot before the story even starts...
Also obligatory walls-of-text in epic fantasies. Doesn't matter if at the start or anywhere else. Especially without being accompanied with at least engaging visuals. Those be damned 8 (
Overall legibility.
And here is a major pet-peeve...
if your thumbnail features a monster.... SHOW ME THE GODDAMN MONSTER RIGHT AWAY!!! 8(
i cannot count the times i got excited over wolves, dragons, or what have you in the thumbnails, only to spend A G E S just to spot a glimpse of said featured monster...
Don't do that.
Don't.
