When the Fan Fiction section is sorted by Most Popular, the story by Shraddha, I Have Something Important To Tell You, is on page 87 out of 90. It has only one chapter with 183 Likes, not "1k Likes per chapter." That's impressive, but not comparable to the popularity of Pawn with its incestuous "sexual scenarios and nudity."

Is this the story to which you were referring? Shraddha has only this one story in the Fan Fiction section, and I couldn't find any other author using the name Shraddha.
Is the popularity algorithm working as intended?
What do members who identify as 13 years old see on the first page of the Most Popular list? That everyone is reading and liking certain stories, which you can't read unless you lie about your age?
When someone gives my story a FAIL, is that counted as a Like to make it more Popular? I hope not.
