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!"

Please try answering without cheating or looking for the answers. The answers to these trivia questions will be available in this blog after a week from the date of AFF's anniversary. So check the link then for the answers! From now till then, the blog will be on private.
1. Why was Asianfanfics created?
Jason's deceased girlfriend had some troubles with Winglin because one of her stories got deleted and the site itself always had errors which never got fixed. Therefore he created Asianfanfics as a replacement/substitute for Winglin.
2. What is the exact date of AFF's anniversary?
Probably the 6th April? I don't know. I just saw those blogs today. XD
3. Our admin, Jason, wrote a fanfic: Zero Day Diaries. Which kpop artists are featured in this fic?
BoA and Jaejoong if I'm not wrong.
4. How long have you been on AFF for?
For five freaking years. XD Oh my god, I'm already that long here.
5. What color was AFF's layout when you joined?
Black and white. Feels nostalgic to me.
6. How did you find AFF?
Through a SHINee Fan Fiction page on Facebook.
7. How did you end up becoming a member? What made you want to become a member?
Well, I started writing stories after getting to know what fan fictions are and since I was too embarrassed to show my crappy English to my my relatives. Hence I joined AFF and never told a single soul about my account who know me offline with a few exceptions.
8. You are user no. ____?
22437
9. What was your first username?
bebeth1996 - Changed it way too often afterwards tho.
10. What was the first story you read on here?
Oh my god, I don't know anymore. XD That's way too long ago. But I do know it was a story featuring SHINee.
11. Who is the first AFFer you talked to?
Umm... That's a good one. I don't honestly remember anymore. They also probably changed their username by now.
12. Who was your first friend? Do you still keep in contact?
Zero idea and probably not. I'm rarely online on AFF unless I want to update something.
13. How many fanfiction/thread(s) do you currently have? How many of them are complete?
14-ish? I actually had more, but I deleted most of them because they didn't make sense. Aside from that are tons of them on hiatus or in draft mode. But at the moment are 7 of them complete (although one is being revamped).
14. How many unique subscribers do you have?
538. I used to have more, but it doesn't matter anyway as long as I have fun in writing stories.
15. What badges do you have?
5 Year AFF Member, Pioneer, Verified Email
16. Have you been an AFF Gold Member?
No. I'm broke.
17. Out of a scale of 10, how much do you frequent the site?
4-5. Used to be 8-10.
18. What is the main activity that you do on AFF?
Updating my own stories and reading some if I'm in the mood for it. When an old friend writes me, I always get back at them whenever I have time.
19. How do you spend most of your karma points?
I spent most of them on changing my username... Yeah. Well, it can't be helped.
20. How would you like to spend your karma points? (E.g. Kpop merchandise.)
If I was able to convert it to real money, then I would've already done it. ;A; But I don't see the point on spending it on something else except for changing my username.
21. Have you ever uploaded a video in the video gallery?
Yes. It was only a test tho. I think I already deleted the video long ago.
22. Have you entered the chatroom? How was it like for you?
If you mean the Chatango chatroom, then it was definitely fun. I also joined those which users can create themselves. But since I'm not much of a socialite, I stopped using either way.
23. What is your favourite feature of AFF?
The labels. Lmao. It's the easiest way to keep track of what I've already read and not instead of creating masterlists. I don't care about the rest as long as I can read and write stories.
24. What is your least favourite feature of AFF? How can it be improved to make it better?
Umm... I haven't been able to get a better look at the newest features yet, so I don't have anything to say.
25. If you could introduce just one feature on AFF, what would it be and why?
A feature, huh? I don't know. Probably something like "clean comment section". I may not be a shop/roleplay owner or something, but I think it will make their lives easier if there was something like this. (Same goes for RPR.)
26. If you could customize the way AFF appears to you, what color would it be? You could just pick one color or a palette.
Black and white. Not grey please. It looks ugly. Aside from this it brings back memories.
27. Who is/are your best friend(s) on AFF?
I don't consider online friends as 'best friends' with some exceptions. Still, I won't reveal them either.
28. Who are the users you want to get to know better?
No one particularly. I don't talk much to others here.
29. Are you grateful/owe something to someone on AFF? Who and why?
Jason. Just because.
30. Who are your AFF inspirations?
No one.
31. If you could put a star on any of your fics/threads, which one would you pick?
When Justice Won't Play Along because even though it's still not complete after so many years, I worked hard on it. I always changed things over all these years, but at the same time whenever I read through the original version, I just can't help and think how much of a crappy writer I was back then. Haha. But at the same time, the improvements I've made throughout these years are also incredible. Too bad I don't have an original document of it anymore, otherwise I would've posted the original written chapters again.
32. What is/are your all time favourite storie(s)/thread(s)?
Because of a Bet by chemistrykim
Dear Diary, Woohyun's a Jerk by Goddess
Goodbye... My Love by Rifa_Namstar
Hey Doctor, I LOVE YOU! by moodytabby
I Fell in Love with My Coordi by Rifa_Namstar
I Never Wanted To Let You Go by babahchen
My Best Friend is a Cross-Dresser? by CrystalxDoll
My Illegal Boyfriend by boy1a4
Shuttered by mushroombeats23
The Identity I Never Knew by pandaislove
Yes, Mr. Teacher by omo904
33. Who is/are your all time favourite author/s?
I don't honestly have any.
34. If you could put a star on another user's fics/threads, which one would you pick?
I'd definitely pick 'I Never Wanted To Let You Go' and 'The Identity I Never Knew' because both stories are just lovely and made me cry each time I read them. Two others I would also pick already got featured before, so they don't count.
35. If you could have any username you want, what would that be? (Did someone already take the username you wanted?)
I'm happy with my current one.
36. If you would write a fanfic about your life in AFF, what would the title be?
The Life Of Your Average Geek
37. What was the weirdest thing you encountered on the site?
Probably all the bashing and whatnot. I never thought people could be that picky about something until I joined AFF.
38. What was the best thing that has happened to you on the site?
That I got to know what is. XD
39. Have your interests changed on AFF? If yes, in what way? (Eg. Change of OTP, bias group, AFF activity.)
Not really.
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?
Nah. I'm happy to be part of the writing, reading and designing community. The rest doesn't matter to me.
41. What is the best thing AFF or being a member of AFF taught you?
That I shouldn't stick my nose into other user's stuff or they'll bite me with their unreasonable explanations and arguments.
42. What is your greatest contribution to the site so far?
Zero idea.
43. What are your current AFF goals?
That I have to finish all of my pending stories.
44. If the AFF community decides to do a get-together, how should we spend it and where?
I probably won't attend. I don't have any time due to my studies.
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?
Jason, thanks a bunch for creating AFF. If it wasn't this site, I'd be probably still sharing some embarrassing stories on Facebook. Lmao. Kidding. I'd be probably upset about Wingling not working and that other AFF site (Asian Fan Fiction) not accepting my stories due to my poor English. Thank you for everything and keep it up!
