The most boring kind of vore

[157and493]

One of the worst things a stories/pictures can be is boring. I understand that vore is not really meant to be “entertaining,” at least not in the conventional sense, but I was still wondering...

Are there any vore scenarios that people find to be exceedingly boring? For me it would have to be a scenario where the pred is incredibly nonchalant about eating the prey.

Well I love details so anytime a story skips the juicy details about the process of the prey being swallowed or inserted into the pred's body is always a big waste of potential for me. I want it described in great detail to paint a mental image not just rushed through or skipped right over. Also anytime the pred has no personality what so ever or even when they just don't have enough or a good amount of dialog either before,during or after the swallowing of the prey takes place.

Grab n gulps, poorly dialogued pictures/written stories (typically spamming words like "belly" and "sexy" every sentence or two), nonhuman/non-humanlike characters (overrated as FUCK in my books), only one gender of characters present (particularly a world populated solely by females), "uneatable no matter what" pred-only types (YAWN. seems like some people forgot the phrase "there's ALWAYS a bigger fish" exists), anything that puts humans at the bottom of the food chain... nope, nope, nope.

Pretty much this, but with bonus negative points if the story has sex in it and it's more detailed than the vore part.
Also, I love background about the characters and what is happening, along with descriptions of them. I can still like throwaway characters and settings, but the more details, the better

Agreed, although often the “world dominated by females” people are really skilled when they write/manip so they get a pass in my book

[Miridium]

Scenarios where it's just nom nom gulp lolololol

[TheSlimeKing]

Anytime when it seems like vore is just thrown in as an afterthought.

An inquiry on what bores people when it comes to this is hardly kinkshaming.
If anything, it can be quite enlightening for those seeking others out or for those looking for something new, among many other positive possibilities.


Okay, so here's my thing on this. I know not everyone has English as their first language (I'm in the same demographic even if I am quite adept at speaking and understanding the very odd language), but Broken English when combined with profuse Slanglish, yeah. Super, Über fucking boring and cacophony for the eyes.

While I may say stuff like 'lol' a lot, I rarely use it in character. In fact, I try to keep it out of my writing unless I'm providing context out of character but that is usually RP-related. Speaking of RP-related...

I get a lot of requests to be pred for some person I really don't even know... yeah. Not interested and definitely boring especially since it often ties in with the above about broken English and Slanglish. Oh, and it gets worse when the same individual persists even when I decline.

Actually, you know what else is absolutely boring? Kinkshaming; it's just stupid and not even fun to peruse. Skip, please.
I don't often get people who actually kinkshame me directly, but indirect, yup. I like what I like, dammit, so why don't you can it, ya jerk!?

Hmmm...
I've said more than enough for enlightenment, I think.

I'm gonna say sandwiches in macro/micro, there are so many ways to get the prey eaten and yet so many people just go for the sandwich.

[FemmiK]

It might have to do with me being somewhat easy to impress or something like that, but I very rarely find vore content boring. The only times I've grown bored with such stuff is if the story are very poorly written stories. Like where a pred gets hungry, leaves their house, and then goes and eats a prey or two, with only one sentence really dedicated to the topic before the pred moves on about their day like nothing happened (this isn't to say casual preds are boring though)

[SkeletonGoat]

I think some people are getting a bit to much into preferences they find boring lol XD Really this thread could be about more technical aspects, especially in writing that can make the vore boring. Like I find plain human preds boring but that is why tags exist and I don't read that stuff. lol

Like for me it would be when the vore in the vore story is an afterthought, its like they have all this build up only for them to gulp the prey down in three quick swallows and the story moves on. The lack of good detail is very frustrating. Vore stories with a lot of unnecessary fluff. Like I once started reading a story that had like some three pages of the main character masturbating to porn on his phone that had literally nothing to do with the plot. It was there to just add more porn but I felt my eyes glaze over and found myself basically skipping it all. Like if you want sex in your vore story you should pry integrate it into the vore itself, it makes for a much more cohesive narrative then 'he get to place, masterbates, goes to bed, next day ventures off to the vore plot'

[todomatsu]

Poorly written dialogue with clunky/unnatural language (using the actual word "vore" in the story itself rarely ever works for me, text speak when inappropriate, to name a few), timeskips, and more focus on sex than vore if the story involves sexual content.

[blergle]

I can't finish reading a story that's set in a world where vore is a common thing that's taken for granted. Even if the scenario being written about is nonconsensual, cruel, or otherwise right up my alley, that sort of setting just makes it so boring to me that I can't get into it. It just takes all the shock value right out of it.

[Tyslan03]

I generally lose interest in non-fatal scenarios.

[Someone92]

F/F.
First I thought I found those RPs boring because most of the people seeking F/F RPs would write just a few sentences, if even that, but then I noticed that even RPs with verbose people were boring.

[InconspicuousDragon]

In a general sense, I find any content that's just an aftershot like belly-worship or a swollen gut the most boring personally. I lean towards endo and romanticized vore, so things that completely lack a connection between pred and prey also tend to be boring to me. I also find the swallowing, insertion and foreplay to be the more entertaining parts. There's exceptions to all of the above however, but it's a difficult question to answer without walls of text.

From a purely personal interest side of things, rather than raw entertainment value, I just can't get into things like hard-vore, hard digestion or scat at all. Digestion and absorption are fine but I hate seeing mangled flesh or waste.

Oh and M/M. I swing both ways but I've never found male on male porn particularly attractive or entertaining. Which is odd because I love F/F.

[Hanzo]

Yeah. Pretty much everything MrGrimlock said.

[Noxyoursox]

What most bores me in stories is when the worldbuilding is overdone, and not enough of it is relevant to the plot. 5 paragraphs about the politics of a fictional country and 10 paragraphs about a character's childhood experiences will get skipped or simply clicked away from. That's not to say that details are a bad thing--but they need to help carry the story along towards its end rather than bogging it down with irrelevant information.

In art, mawshots with no follow-up and belly-shots that don't show the prey don't develop enough connection to keep my interest and are very overdone. That's more of a personal preference though as the dynamic between pred and prey is really important to me--I need to feel sympathetic towards, or at least attached to, the characters, in order for the vore to have any real impact. I'm sure other people who like different aspects of vore enjoy those pics.

[Artemis]

For me it would have to be a scenario where the pred is incredibly nonchalant about eating the prey.

This is called casual vore! I guess it makes sense that if the pred or prey treat vore like it's boring and mundane, it's going to come off as boring and mundane. ||D I can definitely sympathize with this answer, at least.

Yay a kinkshaming thread~ *Sarcasm*

Otherwise, seconded.
