Something I realized after being a reader on AFF for quite some time
The best stories (in my opinion) aren't found through 'most subscribed' or 'most viewed'. You can find them everywhere, but in those categories. I can really state my opinion about it since I took the time and tried out almost every EXO fanfic in the top 20 of the 'most subscribed' and 'most viewed'. I even finished some (because of boredom). Ah and when I say 'best' story, I always mean in my opinion the best one, since... who am I to judge whether a story is good or not.
Of course, there are exceptions! There are a few stories in the 'most subscribed' category that are really really good in my opinion.
I won't name any of the ones that I don't like, since I don't want to offend any.
But!!! I'm going to name some authors that deserve to be much more popular than some that are most popular.
rollingbaek is a truly amazing author! Her writing style is beyond amazing <3 you can totally see that she puts much effort into every word she writes! (or at least, it seems so XD) and her plot is always so unpredictable! Her newest fanfic has around 400 subbers, which is already a lot, I know (haha I could only dream of 400 subbers), but the point is that there are fanfics that aren't half as good (at least in my opinion) have more than 2000 subbers. If those fanfics have 2000 subbers, rollingbaek's deserve at least 1000, if not 3000.
Then there's Navi_7769
her fantasy stories are SO freakingly amazing, they take you into another world and let you 'feel' them instead of just read them! Her ideas are SOOO damn original and creative <3 *_* and even though she has many subbers (mostly between 400-700) I still think that she deserves even more! Much more >.<
Then there's daydreamer-
she has like the cutest and fluffuest shortfics you could ever find on AFF <3 her writing style is very pleasant and her characters make you fall in love with them ;)
and the one fanfic I just read is called 'I Like You... Maybe.' and I loved it <3 it only has 12 subbers and that irks me! That fanfic was really really enjoyable, so why so few subbers? T_T
and it seems like, as soon as a story has '' tagged, it immediately gets 100 subbers... no matter if it's really really amateur-like written. I don't have anything against , but if I read , I prefer beautifully written , where you can totally read that it's making love instead of some X rammed into Y.
Sorry that this post got so long and um I know this kinda turned into some rant and advertisement XDD
Anyways, my point is just that the really good authors (in my opinion) don't get enough attention and aren't really appreciated :(
btw, I don't think anyone is going to read this but MEH I just had to get this off my mind :P XD
