#going onto a fic to talk about something random or your friend oryour fic or some art and saying nothing about the story in front of you

Back on r/AO3 and I'm about to write a fucking etiquette book for how to comment
#and this is not about long vs short vs emoji comments#this is about what you actually choose to say to total strangers#the current debate on that sub is whether it is rude to comment on a fic only to gush about the commissioned art#I don't know who needs to hear this but commenting on a fic and not talking about the fic at all is rude#that's the long and the short of it#going onto a fic to talk about something random or your friend oryour fic or some art and saying nothing about the story in front of you#that is rude#it is always rude#r/aO3 seems to believe that commenters can do no wrong#which is an insane take btw#but every fucking interaction on AO3 is a social interaction#you are engaging with strangers#and nobody would stand in line at a book signing and tell the author 'I really loved the cover art' and say nothing else#if they did everyone would think that person was wack#including the fucking authork
