I've been in fandom 13 years now, and there's stuff that's up on my FFnet account that I just never bothered to copy to AO3. My rule was, if it's either:
a) so old I don't even have the file any more; and /or
b) so juvenile I can't even bear to re-read it;
then I decided it was preferable to leave it where it was. That's about twenty short (<1000 words) ficlets that aren't going to make the move across.
I certainly wouldn't delete them, because people do enjoy them and even now I get the occasional comment on them; but they're of such dubious quality and so unreflective of my current fandom interests and writing skill that I don't think I would be adding to the gaiety of nations by reposting them.
Though, looking over them, I realise that I never posted any of my Tribe fic to AO3! I think I might just remedy that...
