Recently many writers (myself included) have received threats to have their works reported for violating fanfiction.net’s rules on mature content. Apparently someone anonymously reported 11 writers, all from the Outlaw Queen fandom.

The report went to a group called Critics United who decided to make themselves a member-generated police force for FFN. If we don’t take the smutty fics down, they will mass report us to FFN admins until said fics are deleted.

Though it’s been ignored largely, FFN technically prohibits graphic descriptions of sex. So we don’t have a leg to stand on.

With this in mind, many of the writers in the Outlaw Queen fandom (since our fandom is being targeted specifically) have been trying to make AO3 the main source for fic reading.

That’s where you can find the porn, basically, lol.

AO3 has a waitlist to join, but you can get around the waitlist if you know someone with an invite.

That’s where the OQ AO3 invite exchange comes into play. If you need an invite, tweet us. If you have one, tweet us. We will match you up so you can immediate start reading/preserving beloved fics.

For all OUAT fanwork creators, regardless of who you ship, if you post works with adult content on FFN, I suggest you take note of this and plan to back up your stories and feedback, because judging by their forums, “Critics United” has some members/participants/tipsters who are taking an interest in OUAT fandom generally, not just Outlaw Queen authors.

I also highly recommend archiving your work on AO3, where posting adult content *isn’t* a violation of the site’s Terms of Service.

Full disclosure – I’m a volunteer with the Archive, and I’m happy to answer any questions you might have about getting an account, posting a work, or anything of that nature, feel free to PM or Ask.

OK I don’t even go here but if any OQ or other fic writers being attacked like this need invites, speak up. I’m not sure I have any myself but I will signal boost until we get everyone who needs one set up. Because this is some bull fucking shit here.

DM me for an invite. 

I’ve got 4 invites I can give out.

I only have one but I’m willing to give it to anyone who needs it.

You know, filtering tags is supposed to work for the app but I can’t actually add new tags to the filter page if it REFUSES TO LOAD on mobile. 

Also, you know what would be great, tumblr? If you didn’t block posts that DON’T have my blocked tags in them. That’d be a cool development.

Look, you can hate on Wayward Sisters all you want. Every show has it’s haters, that’s fine. But don’t intentionally sabotage the show because you don’t like it. There’s so many of us who are excited it about it and want it to succeed. Please, please don’t take this opportunity of an all female, diverse cast because you want the boys. The whole point of Watward Sisters is that it isn’t about the boys. It’s about another group of hunters. Supernatural and Wayward Sisters can peacefully coexist in the same universe like all the Marvel and DC tv shows that have come out. Just PLEASE don’t intentionally rate the show low and talk shit about it on Twitter. So many people, mainly women, have fought so hard to get this show off the ground. It deserves a chance because it (in my opinion) looks amazing. Even if I didn’t like it, I just wouldn’t talk about it. Because I respect the people who have put in the hard work to get this show. I’m not doing to send hate to Richard Speight Jr about his support for the show, like some people have. Moral of the story: don’t ruin good things for other people just because you can. You have your cake. Your cake has regenerated 13 times now. Let us get our cake out of the oven.
