What is this? Did you know that AFF is celebrating its 7th year of being up and running? Every year we have thought of ways to commemorate this special date by doing various activities.
With that being said, this year we have decided to make it all about you with these 45 questions, interview with yourself, survey, quiz—whichever you wanted to call it haha.
Why are we doing 45 Questions? Because... it's fun. Don't question.
Our theme for this year is the freesia, when given on the 7th Anniversary it upholds trust and faithfulness within a bond. The freesia is also a symbol of friendship. It was named freesia after Friedrich H. T. Freese by fellow botanist Christian P. Ecklon, as a tribute to their friendship.
This day marks seven years of trust, faithfulness and friendship with the site, it's creator and the community. As a thank you to all participants, we leave you with a thank you message from the creator of AFF himself.
"Happy 7th! I'm glad to have you all here, veterans and newcomers alike. I always tend to get super busy around AFF's anniversary time for some reason so I'm extremely grateful to Team Cactus for putting this together. They've come up with some really good questions! Hope you enjoy Team Cactus' quiz!"

32. What is/are your all time favourite storie(s)/thread(s)?
without a doubt, potat00es' just like you and you me us coz that is the legit first long- stories i've read where i was just so engaged with the story that the grammatical/spelling errors didn't bother me at all. and that it actually compelled me to read all 65 chapters of them both holy cow. also the rabin fic titled exposure ( teacher and student au, college au, wonshik is a college student who signs up for the photography afterclass because the tutor hongbin is smokin' hot ). i don't remember who wrote it and it's gone but honestly that made me ship rabin so hard.
as for applyfics, i really adored class 2b by sol / rosebullet, exology mall and jigoku shoujo au by slats-of-light. those two were the applyfics that just made me abandon studying and assignments and schoolwork just to finish my app because of the inspiration.
33. Who is/are your all time favourite author/s?
ptat00esno doubt. and the author of exposure coz goddamn she broke my creed of not having ships in vixx
34. If you could put a star on another user's fics/threads, which one would you pick?
potat00es' just like you and you me us! and exposure!
35. If you could have any username you want, what would that be? (Did someone already take the username you wanted?)
i wanted my name without the dash but someone took it :/ right now i like my username a lot so i don't think i want any other username.
36. If you would write a fanfic about your life in AFF, what would the title be?
Roller Coaster Tiger coz idk it rhymes lol.
37. What was the weirdest thing you encountered on the site?
... idk coz like i've seen it all before i even got here ( a life in ff.net, quizilla, dA, facebookrp, and tumblr gets you exposed to a ton of weird ). but maybe the saltiness of everyone when under anon protection? i mean even tumblr hasn't had it that bad, and anons can send u direct hate there! oh and applyfics. but it was weird when i started out coz "what wtf are applyfics" but now it's my life--
38. What was the best thing that has happened to you on the site?
applyfics. definitely applyfics. it made me stay.
39. Have your interests changed on AFF? If yes, in what way? (Eg. Change of OTP, bias group, AFF activity.)
hmm... i guess how i make characters, coz before i mostly only depend on wikia profiles of characters from certain series to have a template, but now i fill up like longass app forms that allow me to visualize my characters more. also aff definitely opened me to kpop otps. it was my creed before not to have ships coz i don't like the idea of shipping real people with each other ( hella creepy unless i do it with my friends ) but then aff happened.
40. There are many communities now on AFF (such as the writing, designing, coding, applyfic, roleplay, reader communities). Is there a community that you aren't part of but want to try one time?
i tried the review community and the rp community and it was fun but the latter was a far cry from the insanely-literate rps i've had in tumblr so i don't think i'll be going back there... but i would definitely want to be a part of the graphics community. for practice purposes.
41. What is the best thing AFF or being a member of AFF taught you?
how to be sociable online... because i at that lol.
42. What is your greatest contribution to the site so far?
umm??????????
43. What are your current AFF goals?
actually reach more than 10 chapters of an applyfic i would write AND complete it. and write more fanfics ( either otp-based or idolXoc ones ).
44. If the AFF community decides to do a get-together, how should we spend it and where?
boi i ain't going coz i know fo sho it'll be overseas and my poor broke won't be able to go. BUT if money is not a problem, honestly i want it to happen in a korean cafe? like cmon we're all obsessed with kpop here and lowkey fans of korean culture so i think that's appropriate and then it could honestly be a casual thing where we can just gather in circles and meet each other in person. AND there needs to be fast wifi there.
45. AFF is celebrating it's 7th year and is continuing to grow thanks to our admin, Jason. Do you have a message for him?
first of all, admin-nim, thank you so much for this wonderful site. the members might be shady and salty and sour af but we all enjoy writing and kpop culture and different things because of a website you made for your girlfriend ( i think??? honestly i'm not sure about that up to now ). this site made me grow not only as a writer but also as a person, so thank you so much. and please bring back the word wrap in source code editing! lmao thank you!.
33. Who is/are your all time favourite author/s?
