yeah :( ficdom was a different place back then too. even if they weren't on meme, everyone seemed to write so much more and took so many more chances with their writing. though i can't really complain, i used to participate in every 15min challenge and now i don't bother if the prompts don't do anything lol u_u contributing to the problem
ugh i really do miss it :( i used to write whatever the hell i wanted before meme but now i feel like i have to adhere to a certain standard (no lapslock, no second person, etc.) and i think some anons afraid to experiment with writing in fear of being wanked on :( i think the general atmosphere of meme made writing for challenges unappealing, what with the lack of responses. i remember when each fic would get at least a "i like this" or something
da but man even when meme was boy-centric in the early days it really wasn't so bad?? as a girl group anon i felt meme was a lot more welcoming back then... up until kfr i guess
we weren't so great, yeah, but these days i rly find myself liking meme lesser and lesser
you don't remember people telling girl group anons to "get out" and to "start our own flop meme"? lmao ofc it wasn't as bad as it is nowadays, but it wasn't all sunshine and roses as a gg anon back then too. i think it was somewhere in wank that girl groups finally had the heat turned off but the latter half of kficrev got really gross again.
same :( i think i'm going to step away after this part.
wasnt that all during kficrev though??? idk the one part before that was really great for gg anons and even though wangst/etc barely talked abt girl groups, they were nice when the topic did come up...
i don't think i can quit meme completely for now but i'm going to lessen my time on here :(
