Your mod has ended up locked out of dw and the email for this account. It's been so long since I signed into either I straight up can't remember the passwords. And recovery email on the email acct is to one of the other mods mods email. so no luck there. Other mods and I never revealed our identities to each other so asking old mod to follow up is a no go.
We can keep going until 10,000 comments and hopefully by then I will have regained access. Or we can move someplace new? I'd be happy to help set it up since I'm the one who screwed up.
ugh anons when you have planned to write a fic for so long... but someone writes a similar one first... and they're 10x better than you as a writer... but the fic they wrote is your fucking notp of all notps... kill me please.
it's all my fault for being so slow. i'm going to mourn now u__u
lmao this always happens to me. at least i usually haven't started to write the idea, despite being very invested in it and plotting, but once or twice i've thrown out a half-finished fic because of this. considering how little i write, it's awful u___u mourns with you
sometimes i wonder how similar is too similar, and if i can still get away with writing mine... but then always decide not to risk it, lol
oh no mod i hope you feel better :c also i see. is there a reason btsx won't be coming back? is it because of the other one (triptych?) because i think you guys are way better and their graphics are ugly #priorities good luck on finishing and good job!!
on this note i'm kind of worried about bts ficdom going the way of exo and getting a million exchanges but i hope that never happens. what am i saying tho ao3 is really resembling aff lately and that's just as bad, i'm going to die.
ty i am going to try to go to the doctor today (つ﹏<)・゚。 part of it is that, and then part of it is just that anticipating my schedule over the next year, i don't really want to commit to anything i might end up being too busy for? btsx is largely a solo endeavor so maybe bringing on more help would make things easier u__u
i was really happy with such a huge turn-out this year, and i will always believe that everyone should have a chance to participate regardless of skill level or experience in exchanges but with the way ficdom has been lately i feel so disconnected from it personally. i really hope we don't end up with a vkook exchange (realistically a jimin exchange would be first. i can see it now.)
anons, how much do you change your typing style/word choice/etc to stay anonymous on meme? do you try not to sound too similar to your deanon self to keep friends who go on meme from guessing who you are, or do you not really care
never, anymore. this meme is not vicious as kpsm or past fic memes. no one gives a shit here. and i've actually been forced unanoned by someone cross referencing what i said on twitter vs a meme.
i just got into fandom last year, can someone give me a rundown of exo fandom? i've heard people talking about it like it was a shitshow or there were too many fic exchanges (upthread convo) or something, was it as bad as people are saying it was? (is? is exo fandom still alive...)
uhh i don't know how ficdom is doing now, i feel like most/all of the bnfs have moved on to bts or other fandoms. then again there obviously might be some new good writers that I just don't know about. and yeah... head over to exomeme to get a feel but lots of drama lots of toxicity. when I was in ficdom we hand member exchanges and some pairing/type exchanges like au etc... I've seen some rted like "parents exchange" or "daddy exchange" whatever the fresh fuck and tbh I still can't tell if those were real or not. I guess imo downside is most of the wind in the sails is gone, upside is u have a lot of past good fic to dive into (if they haven't been taken down)
sorry I might be a negative former exo stan (kind of stopped keeping up with ficdom since early 2015) lmao so yeah grain of salt. maybe someone who is still in ficdom/has been since 2013-2014 can give u a better picture?
have you ever read a fic where you enjoyed the side plot more than you enjoyed the actual plot?
like for me there was the one chaptered fic i read ages ago on lj about onew being a vampire and turning minho into one i think but the hottest part of the like 27 chaptered fic was when human jessica gave vampire minho a blowjob as a distraction because he was so heated in thoughts over onew lolllll. for whatever reason that part was so major to me when it was only like a paragraph's worth of plot :)))
idt for me it's the actual plot interesting...ness but the people/pairings. like sometimes i'll ctrl+f my fave in a fic if it looks interesting but i don't feel like reading it in its entirety.
the thread above mentioning threats to send someone's fics to their school made me wonder, do colleges/universities really give a fuck? if you emailed school administration a link to some korean boyband fanfiction that you claim is written by one of their students, would they actually care enough to investigate it and take action? and would they even have the desire or authority to take action based on a student's hobby in their free time? maybe it's just me, but i think university administration probably has much bigger issues on their hands than digging through kpop fanfiction and interrogating students about it, lmao
i feel like it's less about the school administration finding out than it is their peers at the school? idk i never figured out exactly how that'd work
hey anons! do any of you know any sites where i can read sailor!au fiction? it doesn't necessarily have to be fanfic. in fact, i'd appreciate it more if it were original work. i'm thinking pirates of the carribean or in the heart of the sea kind of universe. (this mostly has to do with my sudden craving for captain/crew boy dynamic and sex deprivation since they've been in the sea for months)
idk jyp does have a history of letting people go of their own accord before their contracts were up (hyuna and her health issues, sunmi and her... homesickness?), but then there's always the jay park scenario to consider...
the gf thing only sounds petty if you don't take into account how she was releasing info about where the band was gonna be (which is basically setting the table for sasaengs) in addition to releasing her chats with him which portrayed him as the one coming on to her, and it sounds like kfans were turning their backs on him because of the trouble she was causing which wouldn't be as bad if day6 had a traditional fanbase to fall back on
has anyone been reading the infinite secret valentines fics? can i just say as someone who hasn't kept up with infinite fics for a bit i'm surprised at how much sunggyu there is in here
for me, matching is primarily based on pairings (at least two pairings in common between recipient and writer) and no conflicting dnws. this time around a lot of people had preferences about what they wanted to write (eg only porn or only angst etc) that made it a lot more difficult because i was trying to satisfy everyone T__T
(everyone has preferences and that's fine, but in the future i'm going to be more clear about how much writing preferences outside of pairings and dnws weigh in terms of matching to avoid the stress that this round of matching caused. i really would love to give everyone a recipient that perfectly matches all of their desires, but the reality is that if you are signing up with only a narrow range of fics you are willing to write, you might have to either broaden it or accept that it's very likely not to be your ideal.)
i had a public twitter only so i could tweet to my fave idols (no shame lol) but i locked it after a while because twitter was doing creepy things with it? like on who to follow it would recommend me to follow people i knew irl even though i had the location turned off and unchecked the following by email/contacts boxes turned off. i even used an alternative email so it really made me worry someone i knew irl would find my fandom twitter :/
