PSA: bot comments are taking over ao3

The above examples have been provided with the authors' permission to demonstrate what these look like.

Basic rundown:

• They are all 3 sentences long
• Perfect grammar, capitalization, and punctuation
• Like absolutely flawless English teacher-style writing with only a single exclamation mark, ever
• No mentions whatsoever of character names, settings, situations, or anything that could be tied to the story
• The usernames may be identical to people who exist on ao3, but the name is not clickable, and no profile is associated with it EXCEPT when you directly search for that name. What this means: the comments come from an unregistered (not logged in) reader, bots scrape the site for real usernames, attach that to the comment, and post

Please spread the word about this so authors can filter comments and report them accordingly

There has been some speculation about why this is happening at all, and the best guess is that this is a feature that AI-training story-scraping tools are implementing to try and make their browsing traffic look legitimate

happy disability pride month, can this website stop acting like autism and adhd are the only disabilities ever please

apxlllo

physically disabled people exist and we see the shit people say about us on this website - we're pushed out and ignored by our own community, disability positivity here always focuses on able bodied nd people and any posts about physical disabilities or chronic illnesses are immediately hijacked to talk about neurodivergence and mental health, and some of y'all will really act like physically disabled people are never hurt by ableism or that we're "privileged" somehow

autism and adhd positivity and acceptance are super important but please stop talking over physically disabled people or using neurodivergence as an excuse to be ableist. it's exhausting

[PHYSICALLY ABLED PEOPLE DONT CLOWN IN THE COMMENTS]
