Young Writers Society

Peace Girl Friend. If this is what you want then take it, just know that we are only here to help you not hurt you.

I understand what you're saying. I never joined Wattpad because it seemed a bit socially daunting to me, and because I noticed while looking around that basically, if your work wasn't popular, no one would ever read it. But to each their own. I'll also point out that even if you tell people not to review your work, they'll do it anyway. It might seem a bit rude, but if they just didn't review a work because the author told them not to, it would end up sitting at the bottom of the Green Room forever. I promise you that the folks who reviewed your poem weren't trying to be mean or rude, they were just helping clear the Green Room.

If Wattpad is better for you personally, then by all means, do what you want and, most importantly, have fun. I'll miss our chatting sessions, and I wish you the best of times.

Vale, Pinkie. Vale. You will be missed.

bleurgh I joined YWS because I didn't like Wattpad. Nobody ever helps you so how are you supposed to get any better? Also, people only read your stuff if you're site-famous and the people who get site-famous tend to be the people who write the easiest to read stuff. They end up looking like the better writers which is unfair to people who take it seriously and want to better themselves.
That being said I'm sure there are plenty of Wattpad users that are good at writing. I just wish they got more recognition.

Good luck on Wattpad. If you just want to write for fun, that's the way to go.

I'll miss you,

I see your point. I myself use Wattpad, too, sometimes, though mostly just to read. But I like to use Wattpad and this site because no one ever tries to help you out on Wattpad. They say they do or don't like it, but nothing more. YWS provided critique that betters you as a writer. It can be tough to swallow at first, but after your first few pieces you get over it and you really let their advice sink in. But I know some people aren't equipped to handle it, so I won't stop you. It's been nice having those chats with you here and there.

Thanks for telling us. Just know that the people here only critique you to help you. It's better to have someone tell the truth than to feed you with lies. The real writing world is way more honest than the people on YWS; just ask any professional writer. I hope the knowledge you gained here will help you in your future endeavors.

Goodbye, you might be missed.

Well, Pinkie, we chatted about this and I respect your decision. Um...yeah. I'm not going to ask you not to quite exactly, because I do understand your point here. Wattpad is way less overwhelming than Young Writer's Society. It's just that. A society. Once you get on, it's hard to stop, and you feel like you have to be committed, much like an actual society.
So, yeah. Have fun on Wattpad. Just watch out for those perverted fan fictions *_*
