Wow, now there's a bot going around on Ao3 telling people that the "moderators" will delete works from "deprecated" fandoms and impose bans.

Fearmongering bullshit, but it's fearmongering bullshit that seems to be taking advantage of the recent spotlight series in order to trick authors into deleting their fics.

Just. Why.

What the hell does anyone get out of making these bots.

SCAMMER ALERT

The user unlikelyprincebird tried to scam me today. They tried to use the really popular method as i learned later and i honestly had bad feeling about it since they first commented on my post and i was trying to be carefull the whole time writing with them but i think sharing this is importnant anyway because there might be some unaware people who could get scammed. Here i post the screenshots of our conversation so you can se the pattern of their actions (it all started with them commenting my post of which i dont have screenshots)

PLEASE REPOST SO MORE PEOPLE CAN SEE THIS (i will use some popular hashtags ao it gets more reach please dont get mad at this)

Also heres a list of some of their behaviours that maybe should alert you when someone asks you for a commision or may be mistaken for something proving they are not a scammer (just because someone does one of those things doesnt automatically mean that they are scammers but it should raise your awareness)

Asking for a commision someone that doesnt mention them in their bio/posts

Writing in comments instead of DMing, especially without liking the post

Having other people responding to their comments asking for commisions on their profile

Asking for a painting of their child's pet

Having preferences giving the illusion that they are actually interested in the artwork

Offering a bigger amount of money than you ask for

Asking for your name (they then use it in emails and claim that official mails always use your name and surname)

Sending false photos proving they sent the money

Offering to pay the additional money at first then making you pay it

Looking for Kingmen fic! Please help!!

I'm looking for a fic that Eggsy is assaulted as a kid and he wearing the kingsmen medallion. The predator moves on because harry at the time was looking for another taken child. The predator treated the kids as dogs saying they were bad dogs. That saying triggers Eggsy a bit when Merlin calls JB a bad dog for jumping on him. Eggsy is quick to sign the paperwork to get out of doing honeypot missions. I think Eggsy's mom and sister live in or are at the mansion a lot of the time. Eggsy is branded by the predator and later cuts it off and uses a egg membrane to seal the wound.

If anyone has a copy of this can you please send me a link. Thanks!!

Alright! Sorry for being so absent today! I was building a tool so you can all check your own names on demand.

I am asking that you not talk about it on Hugging Face. I'm sure word will get there eventually, but I'd like to avoid them accessing this as much as possible. Feel absolutely free to spread around Tumblr.

AO3 search tool is here! Use page 1 to search scraped fics by username. Use page 2 to search by work ID (which you'll need to do if you're looking for an anonymous work).

Or you can use this version, which is strongly recommended if you've published more than about 20 fics on the username you're searching.

If you're unsure which to use:

The first link is better if your entire username is a common word. For example, if you're username is just "bread" then you probably can't search yourself in the second link. The first version is way slower, so I recommend trying the second link first and using the first link as a backup option if the second fails.

The first link contains a page to search by work ID. This is good if you have an anonymous or orphaned fic, since that's not going to appear by searching your username.

The second link is better if you have a LOT of fics. It will give you a count of fics so you don't have to add them up. It will show the top 2,000 work results found.

If you have more than 2,000 published works, first off, I am jealous of your motivation. But second, that won't display right on the public version of the tools. You can send an ask or DM to have me do a custom search for you if you have more than 2,000 total works under 1 username.

You can also ask or DM if your entire username is a common word, because you're likely to get drowned out of the search results in that case. Try the tool first, but if it returns a lot of author results for your search, and YOUR name isn't in the results, ask me! There's a decent chance you're in there, but one of the tool's weak points is searching extremely common words.

In case this post breaches containment: this is a tool that only has access to the work IDs, titles, author names, chapter counts, and hit counts of the scraped fics for this most recent scrape discovered in April 2025. There is no other work data in this tool. This never had the content of your works loaded to it, only info to help you check if your works were scraped. If you need additional metadata, I can search my offline copy for you if you share a work ID number and tell me what data you're looking for. I will never search the full work text for anyone, but I can check things like word counts and tags.

Please come yell if the tool stops working, and I'll fix as fast as I can. Version 1 is slow as hell, but it does load eventually. Give it up to 10 minutes, and if it seems down after that, please alert me via ask! Anons are on if you're shy. Version 2 typically loads results within 1 minute and handles most users well.

On mobile, enable screen rotation and turn your phone sideways. It's a litttttle easier to use like that. It works better if you can use desktop.

Some FAQs below the cut:

"What do I need to do now?": At this time, the main place where this dataset was shared is disabled. As far as I'm aware, you don't need to do anything, but I'll update if I hear otherwise. If you're worried about getting scraped again, locking your fics to users only is NOT a guarantee, but it's a little extra protection. There are methods that can protect you more, but those will come at a cost of hiding your works from more potential readers as well.

"I don't want to know!": This tool is 100% optional. If you don't want to know, simply don't click the link. You are totally welcome to block me if it makes you feel more comfortable.

"Can I see the exact content they scraped?": Nope, not through me. I don't have the time to vet every single person to make sure they are who they say they are, and I don't want to risk giving a scraped copy of your fic to anyone else. If you really want to see this, you can find the info out there still and look it up yourself, but I can't be the one to do it for you.

"Are locked fics safe?": Not safe, but so far, it appears that locked fics were scraped less often than public fics. The only fics I haven't seen scraped as of right now are fics in unrevealed collections, which even logged-in users can't view without permission from the owner.

"My work wasn't a fic. It was an image/video/podfic.": You're safe! All the scrape got was stuff like the tags you used and your title and author name. The work content itself is a blank gap.

"It's slow.": Unfortunately, a 13 million row data dashboard is always going to be on the slow side. I think I've done everything I can to speed it up, but it may still take up to 10 minutes to load. It's faster if you can use desktop, but it should work on your phone too.

"My fic isn't there.": If it was published after March 15th, 2025, that was likely after all of the scraping took place. Otherwise, from what I can tell so far, the scraper's code just... wasn't very good, so most likely, your fic was missed by random chance. I am continuing to look for methods to reduce the chances of a work getting scraped anyway, and I will share on this blog if/when I find something that works.

Thanks to everyone who helped with the cost to host the tool! I appreciate you so so so much. As of this edit, I've received more donations than what I paid to make this tool so you do NOT need to keep sending money. (But I super appreciate everyone who did help fund this! I just wanna make sure we all know it's all paid for now.)

(Made some quick edits to the post on 04-May-2025 to update information a bit!)

"Bye, Hen! Bye, Karen! My ride's here!"

-inspired by chapter 23 of @cassiopeiasara's fic titled: Hold Me Tight (and don't let go) (I highly recommend reading the whole thing tho! It's a lovely collection of bathena goodness!!)

Some lovely Bathena fan art in these trying times.

So I’m on AO3 and I see a lot of people who put “I do not own [insert fandom here]” before their story.

Like, I came on this site to read FAN fiction. This is a FAN fiction site. I’m fully aware that you don’t own the fandom or the characters. That’s why it’s called FAN FICTION.

sacrifice plays tony stark has been willing to make (and has made) in the mcu:

iron man 1: commanded pepper to blow up the stark industries roof with him still on it in order to stop ironmonger, knowing it could potentially kill him as well 

avengers: flew a nuke through a wormhole into space on a suicide mission in order to destroy the chitauri armada and save the world

iron man 3: in a deleted scene, tony took out his arc reactor to use as a defibrillator to save a young boy’s life, and went into cardiac arrest as the shrapnel crawled further and further towards his heart 

age of ultron: placed himself underneath a falling city to blow it up before it caused global destruction, knowing he may not walk away 

infinity war: begged strange not to trade the time stone away to spare his life after thanos had impaled him and was about to finish him off with the gauntlet

endgame: wielded the infinity stones to turn thanos and his entire army to dust, knowing the price was his own life

sacrifice plays thor has been willing to make in the mcu:

thor 1: offered his life in exchange for loki to cease his attack on the town and his newfound friends

infinity war: risked killing himself in order to forge stormbreaker for the chance to kill thanos

endgame: practically begged to put the gauntlet on to snap everybody back before tony stopped him because he wasn’t in any mental condition to make that choice

sacrifice plays natasha romanoff has been willing to make (and has made) in the mcu:

aou: was willing to stay on sokovia and die with everybody she thought they wouldn’t be able to save before fury surprised them with the helicarrier

endgame: sacrificed her own life on vormir to give the team the chance to bring everybody thanos dusted back

sacrifice plays clint barton has been willing to make in the mcu:

aou: shielded the young boy in his arms with his own body when ultron started shooting in their direction

endgame: was also willing to sacrifice his own life on vormir but natasha beat him to it

endgame: could be argued that offering himself up as the guinea pig for the time travel test run was a form of a sacrifice play 

sacrifice plays bruce banner has been willing to make in the mcu:

ragnarok: changed into hulk to help thor save asgard, risking relinquishing all control to hulk, knowing he may never be able to turn back

endgame: wielded the gauntlet to bring everybody back, at great physical cost (he didn’t even know for sure if he’d even survive it)

sacrifice plays steve rogers has been willing to make in the mcu:

the first avenger: jumped on a (fake) grenade

the first avenger: flew a plane into the arctic to save his country

i really don’t understand why steve is painted as the noble, self-sacrificing hero when the rest of the avengers have actually been willing to make more sacrifice plays than he has?? steve isn’t even in the top half of the list!! tony has first place with the amount of times he’s been willing to lay his life on the line to save others yet he’s often painted as selfish and egotistical. post-tfa, steve legit became all talk. in endgame, he told everybody else to do “whatever it takes” while not really putting in the same effort himself. and in the end, he just went back in time and rewarded himself with a long happy life, abandoning everybody else in the present. he got everything back, while; tony sacrificed his life and left behind a family, nat sacrificed her life for clint’s family, thor had to accept his entire family and best friends are all dead, and bruce has to live with a physical handicap and the loss of nat. honestly, don’t talk to me about how noble and morally superior captain america is because endgame proved that he kinda isn’t…
