One thing I've noticed MOST of the RIs and OCs in fanfics nowadays is that their choices don't seem to inflict a negative side of the story. Like, characters questioning their ideology and pointing out the flaws that the characters should have. 
          	
          	And this is what bothers me in Wattpad or any platform that creates stories in general, like AO3. Creators are afraid OR don't know how to create GENUINE conflict between their RIs and OCs to characters in the story that they put them in. Mostly, the characters just go by to the MC's decision and don't see any problem with it.
          	
          	I want the RIs and OCs to have flaws, to create mistake in their choices, this aspect is what makes the character alive and their choices ACTUALLY matters. I don't want an ass reason where their actions is completely 100% right and no mistake whatsoever. Hell, this should be applied to overpowered OCs/RIs too, it's like, their literally main saving aspect of their character. They should have weakness or a flaw that is a contrast to their character. 
          	
          	Anyways, peace y'all.

What the hell is with RWBY fanfics and their harem slop bro. I can't find any good stories of a reader insert or male OCs/characters without being bombarded with their terrible writing and the entire female cast on their dick.
          
          The entire shit I find is basically just how the story goes with only the addition character of the Author's reader insert/OC and the female cast acting OOC just to suck the RI/OC's dick. Even after all this years, kdog's fanfic still remains the top of all RWBY fanfics.

@Notsoegotisticalguy The same also goes for "Abused and Neglected Male Reader". Fanfics
            
            Step 1: Abuse Y/n
            Step 2: Y/n gone
            Step 3: Rose family SHOOKETH
            Step 4: Rose fam bitch about Y/n gone
            Step 5: Y/n Stronk
            Step 6: Y/n in Beacon :D
            Step 7: Rose fam find Y/n.
            Step 8: Y/n PlEaSe FoRgIvEmE!!!
            Step 9: Y/n: "No."
            Step 10: Y/n: "Yes."
            Step 11: "Y/n I LoVe YoU pLeAsE HaVe My BaBiEs"
            
            The end

@Notsoegotisticalguy True. I used to read those until I grew up on them. I even tried writing one but I deleted it after being in the drafts for so long and cringing like hell after rereading it. My first fanfic is kinda similar (which i wanna delete but can't because it's my first published fic) but yeah, those type of stories are usually written by lonely adolescent teens who have had minimal interactions with women which makes their work cursed like you mentioned. Very inconsistent. I try to redeem myself with my new upcoming one since you are a good critic.

@Notsoegotisticalguy had actual
            Humour and character development instead of witty popular memes at the time and the ri/OC pointing out the other characters flaws without the reverse ever happening and that somehow making the women want to carry his blood line
