On my shelf it’s alphabetical, exceptions taken when it’s a series because I won’t split it up.
Other than that it’s a pile on the floor.

Fanfiction etiquette is incredibly simple, actually. Don't like it, don't read it. No one is forcing you to, which is why it looks ridiculous to complain about it, especially if you were content warned. AO3 tags + "exclude" is one of the greatest reading tools ever. Use them properly and voila!
