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!"

Jason (owner/admin of AFF)

Probs the request section, where you can randomly ask/fulfill a request.


24. What is your least favourite feature of AFF? How can it be improved to make it better?

The blue colour scheme, it doesn't match with the green save buttons... maybe just me being ocd. I prefer a green aff. I know I can change this, but it reverts back to blue every once in a while.

25. If you could introduce just one feature on AFF, what would it be and why?

Cute mascots/stickers or something in chat and maybe on the homepage. When I think asian, I think very cutesy and animated.

I'm forever grateful to all the users on aff. From the writers to the graphic makers. I'm especially thankful to anyone that's ever made me anything. 
Good stories + good visuals = FIIRRREEEEE
I've learnt some, loved some, hated some, always growing. 


30. Who are your AFF inspirations?

Oooh too many to list. But the ones that made me want to start writing were sundaysundaes, oneoftheboys and candylaura. Supersonic was the one who made me want to start doing anything creative on aff. Graphics wise, even though I haven't tried my hand will always be elegence, aleric, baechimi, and pinkblink. My fave layout place is defs pompous.


31. If you could put a star on any of your fics/threads, which one would you pick?

Probs Pandamonium. I'm not really proud of anything else. I would be if I'd made progress on The High Life.

I fail to understand how TBIS and UCT don't have a star.

Nope. I'm so fickle, I want a new one every day. I remember I really liked effloresce.

Single and needing a pringle, wannabe fashionable, aspiring architect's guide to life.

Finding amazing talent to satisfy my procrastination and nuture my fangirl heart.


39. Have your interests changed on AFF? If yes, in what way? (Eg. Change of OTP, bias group, AFF activity.)

Definitely. Came for the stories, found biases through the author's way of writing, stayed for the creative community. 


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?

Coding! But it'll probably take me a decade. 


41. What is the best thing AFF or being a member of AFF taught you?

Juggling time.


42. What is your greatest contribution to the site so far?

My prescence. Lol no. My trailers?

It's kind of a secret. I'm working on two things, one, something interactive for my subbies and aspiring creatives, two, something special for my favourites. 


44. If the AFF community decides to do a get-together, how should we spend it and where?

Definitely possible if we google hangout or something in our pajamas while having a picnic or slumber party.
