Okay so as i an avid reader of xreader fics, the fake xreader fics are a HUGE pet peeve of mine. What do i mean by fake "xreader"? Well, i mean the fics that are tagged with /reader tags, but the character that's SUPPOSED to be the reader-insert is named.

Like why the heck are people doing that?! More visibality? Well guess what? The people who came into your fic believing it's an xreader will leave as soon as they find out that the main character is named. You are just making filtering harder for readers. And don't get me started with people who tag their fics as both xreader and Xoc. And no i'm not talking about fics where the reader and the oc battle for the affection of the character, nor am i talking about fics with threeway relationships (those are usually clearly tagged). It jus shows that they know they should be tagging it as Xoc but they still tagged it as xreader, and even if it IS an xreader, the people who clicked on the fic expecting it to be Xoc would be upset, so either way someone would be upset.

Anyway, i just wanted to vent out my frustration a little cuz i found one too many fake xreader.
