Who Wants An AFF News Blog?

 

 

 

I’ve been bothered about the growing rift between users for some time now. In most of my blogs - at some point - I mention “How it used to be when I first joined”. I know that now the site has grown probably over 100x, that not everybody will talk to one another. Still, there is a way for us to keep up with the goings-on without putting ourselves out there.

I’m set on making a news blog. Seems kinda weird, even for me, but I think it will be fun. There are a lot of unnoticed writers out there, and I have way too much time on my hands [It’s gotten to the point where I think up a new - unintentional - plot everyday].

The idea is that I will ‘interview’ at least one user per week, as well as trying to incorporate other things - Maybe a poll, or a game, or something else. I would like to get as many people involved as possible, making this a community thing. You can message me recommendations [Fanfic, Movie, Published Book, Manga, Anime, Youtube Channel, etc], as well as the latest Kpop gossip, your upcoming stories, and things concerning the base attributes of the site.

Honestly, I think the users have grown apart - either through growing up and gaining personal responsibilities, or being new and not knowing where to start, or just being shy. I think this could be a good way to start getting to know each other, and if it takes off, it could mean ‘jobs’ in assisting and writing your own articles.

All you have to do is comment or PM me.

Yes, go for it! At least I can do/read something when I'm on AFF... I don't write/read much fics lately and most of my friends were not online when I'm on.... so it's getting pretty quiet for me every time I go into AFF... I wish you all the best! :)

I agree, all my AFF friends before are not really here anymore (I'm one of the ancients too), there's hardly any interaction between me and some users, idk but I knida miss the old times although I have nothing agaisnt the new people, or the new face of AFF. But one can really tell the difference between the old and current aff community.

Whale, get you unleashing your creativity onto AFF.

I think this could really hit it off, I mean the old users are hardly as involved as they used to be (I know, I'm included OTL) and the new users barely even know anyone or anything kpop related, so it could help bring the whole "Community" thing back to AFF.

I absolutely love this idea! If you need any help in kicking it off or just someone to randomly wall people saying "oi, look at deese" I would love to help :D

*wipes tears of pride* my waifu is so smart, I just can't

That sounds super cool! It would be a great way to find out about mostly unknown authors. I write, so if you ever wanted to chat I'm all game.

This has probably been one of the most interesting and intriguing things I've read lately, and I fully support. Interestingly enough, some people on AFF don't even pay attention to all the Asian gossip anymore (I, being one of the few...very few), perhaps they used to and just drifted away from the whole scene. but I digress.

Regardless, I think it would be a nice little touch in this seemingly overly-conformed world.

I think you should totally go for it! I think interviewing users on aff who are less known are want to share their love of writing more to the world of aff where everything is hidden unless it's EXO (seriously though)! I would totally read you news posts! :)
