Right. Especially when so many stories are categorized wrong and Fanfics are in the same ranking system as original fiction. I feel like there would be a better chance of getting discovered if there were two rakning systems - one for fanfics and the other for originals.

This is exactly the problem I have with WP. All they care about are numbers. Tapas doesn't even require you to have say a thousand subscribers before enabling ad revenue. Plus, somehow the Paid Stories on WP never glitch, but the tag rankings almost always break down making it impossible to get…

I guess I should clarify that particular incident happened in February or March. I'm just frustrated with the lack of growth because of the tags glitching out. And thanks again! How are you?

It's been happening since October of last year, so my patience has become thin with them. I also got locked out of my account for no reason for a week earlier this year on Wattpad after buying Premium from them and no apology at the end of the ticket with support.

No. They just vanish and don't show up in the tag rankings where the ranking says they're suppose to be.

Thanks! I'm not leaving Wattpad as a reader since there are still some amazing authors on there, but I feel like I've reached the end of how far I can go on Wattpad when HQ isn't very supportive of regular writers as opposed to their paid story programs. With that said, I'm not against Paid Stori…

Hey everyone. I haven't been in the Tapas forums for sometime. Hope that will change as I make the transition from Wattpad over to here. There have just been a few things that I've grown increasingly frustrated with about Wattpad, including vanishing stories. Obviously, I want to post my writing …

This is such a wonderful site so far. I've been on here for a month without any problems and tipping has been enabled for me (thank you Tapas team) and everything appears to run much smoother than it does on WP. I also saw the ad revenue is possible when you hit 100 subscribers. It's looking mo…

I've promised readers that any donations will go toward improving my writing such as hiring an editor or things to help me with my writing like a new computer because my current one really doesn't work that well.

I'm not worried about it but my circumstances are probably different. My story hit 11,000 reads on WP in under five months but they don't have any added benefit unless tipping rolls out over there within the next couple of months. Even then readers seem hesitant. I think adverts would be bette…

I'm a bit curious. Are there any writers on Tapas who have managed to make enough money through donations or revenue from Ads to make it a job?

I wouldn't say the Wattys were a bust, just strange from previous years. WP almost has the signs that they're desperate. Which isn't good. They need to take a deep breath and take a few steps back.

Aldonia is a High Fantasy I'm working on currently to begin posting next year.

Yeah. Everyone is saying they are interested in Aldonia and I don't want to be that one person, but I'm hesitant to post anything there until they fix the website.

It's raining here today. I think it's crying about WP.

Fantasy. How about you? Yeah. For comparison, A Rider's Fate achieved 10,000 reads in under five months. I'll start posting here in January. Yep, same thread I'm in. I tagged Support so hopefully something can get done about the glitches there.

XD Which one of their many threads? Yeah, same. I'm going to post here and wait until they fix everything over there.

Hello! Also relatively new still. Three stories planned for 2019. How about you? Also from WP because of all the glitches over there.

Nice. Harmony is on Wattpad as well, right?

Finished writing my story on WP a few weeks ago and now transferring it here. Have a total of three books planned for 2019, including two sequels to A Rider's Fate, the first book in my Royal Rider Trilogy series. Fairly popular on Wattpad so hoping for the same thing to happen on here. I'll be p…

Thanks! I posted a bit before on here about tipping a few weeks ago. It's kind of funny since chapter 1 ended up being the only chapter I had to change since it was 200 characters over the limit.

I would love to help writers with feedback. I usually leave comments when I read telling them how I feel about the story. I'm searching for both completed and Undiscovered Fantasy stories. Dragons are a plus. Here's my completed story: A Rider's Fate. I am in the process of finishing final edi…

So after this weekend on Wattpad, a few things happened that left me really unhappy with how the Wattpad website functions. I can't even access the basics of my main account on there right now because of a glitch. I've tried thinking of everything I can do for italics and thoughts, but the format …

Thanks! I'll let them know and hopefully they will stop spreading false info.

Hey, so someone on Wattpad says you might remove tipping after InksGiving for those of us who don't have the subscription requirements on stories? Is there any chance you can confirm that tipping will remain open after the event even if we don't have the subscriber threshold?

Thanks! Appreciate the help!

I was wondering if there is a website that makes it easy to convert the image of a cover to the criteria that Tapas requires for a file size. Is this something that's easy to do, or do I need to ask someone on here to convert the file size so that the resolution fits on Tapas? Thanks in advance.

New chapter just posted Aravall - A kingdom defended by dragon riders, where one girl learns that she is the key to defeating an ancient evil which threatens to return to destroy the kingdom.

Hey all, newbie here so let me know if this isn't allowed here :slight_smile: Discovered this site after spending six years on and off Wattpad. I think I've exhausted the tags looking for dragon rider academy stories on there, and I thought I would check here to see if anyone loves these stories as much as I d…

I managed to scare my dad! And the only thing I did was slide open the glass door XD
