i'm a little bit inactive in AFF...
and i think everyone in my friend list notices that. hahas.
i usually post one or two blog posts a day in AFF, but these days.. i never post them. i'm tired of AFF, to be honest. i log in to AFF everyday only to see if there are any news/something big. and i've been kind of neglecting my ongoing fics there. which is sad.
it's not that i'm having a writer block, but it's just i'm not so into AFF anymore now. i'm online in livejournal and twitter like almost every minute, but it's not the same case for AFF.
there several reasons why i (probably) abandon my AFF account:
- aff is now filled by those fics that make no sense.
i think this is very common. every time i checked the latest updated fics, there are only those dreadful 'you' stories which i really can't put my finger onto. i mean, it just feels awkward for me when i read a fic in second point of view. i'll give you an example.
You then grabbed his wrist for the umpteenth time that day. You thought it wasn't enough, you wanted to tell him more. He faced you with annoyed look as he said, "What do you want, ~~~~~~~~?" "I'm not finished yet, (insert idol name here). You should listen to me first!"
"Well I think everything is finished. Sorry, ~~~~~~~~." He said. You lowered your head as you felt tears well up in your eyes. You didn't want him to see you cry, at all. "This is the last time I tell you, (insert idol name here)."
He sighed and gave in, "Say it, then."
"I love you, (insert idol name here)."
isn't that just awkward? i mean, 'you did this', 'you did that'... no, i didn't. and those squiggly thing... god, i can't. i'll just save rants for this topic later (in other post).
- there are no communities in aff.
which is sucks. i mean, there are a lot of masterpiece stories in AFF that are underrated (lack of readers). and by communities, they could submit and share their stories to fellow writers in the same fandoms and then, viola~ those stories will become a success.
communities could help, very much, as long as that application isn't misused.
- featured stories are chosen by system.
it's so sad to feature stories that are having no potency. i think doing some poll each month could help. like, the mod of aff (a.k.a nichi) make a very big poll to vote the stories with the subscriber range around 100+ and then the users theirselves will vote for the best story(es) that are featured-worthy.
there are many reasons but i won't type it down all because they're too long. one of the reasons is that i'm almost an outcast in aff.
ahh, i'm satisfied now after writing all of this. see you next time! ♥
