AsianFanFics Journey Post

asianfanfics 5th anniversary celebration post:
    your aff journey:

so I happened to stumble on the following blog posts:
(1) https://www.asianfanfics.com/blog/view/815301
(2) https://www.asianfanfics.com/blog/view/816062

 

"how and when you came across the site?":

I came across this site when I was trying to find some 'daragon' (DaraxG-Dragon) fics and pics. I don't remember exactly when I made an account, but I was already reading fanfics from 'fanfics.net' waaaay before I fell upon this site and before I was into kpop.
I think I made my first account right when I started to try looking for 'BangSong'(SongJieunxBangYongguk) fics.

"what your first username was":

This account, -Jinx-, is my second account~ My primary account is still active and most of my stories are on that account. My username has not changed since it was first created. I won't tell you my first account; that you can figure out on your own~

"why [do] you continue to stay?":

Cause I love to write and I love kpop! I stay on this site to talk, chat, and communicate with others that, of course, also love kpop! I've been "shipping" characters since forever, but I started reading fanfics when I was in middle school. I only began to like kpop since my 2nd year of middle school(7th grade) and started to write in my first year of Junior High(8th grade). This is the only place where I enjoy writing about my ships without feeling embarrassed or like a "weirdo" xD

"What are some of your favorite things about the site?":

Definitely not the constant layout updates, seriously, stop changing the layout of the site! It's throwing off my ability to adapt to the site. But...my favorite thing(s) about the site is(are)..hmm...idk tbh. I don't have a hate for anything really, I just write and search up fics about my fave pairings, not bothering the pairings I dislike. Nothing really stands out to me all that much. I can't say the users are great cause that's too vague of a topic and tbh, not everyone is all dat fine (sorry not really). So..sorry..?

"What's something you would love to see on the site in the future?":

.....i'mma skip this question...

"And any other kind messages you'd like to leave!?":

this site has helped and hurt me immensely. It has helped me by inspiring me to write and find my passion for wanting to continue in literature in the future. Also, the friends I have made on this site are so very kind and supportive and I just couldn't ask to have met better people ;u; and though many of them have unfriended me(on my other account) that's fine, it was fun talking with you guys while it lasted ;u; and I'm just glad enough for that~
it has hurt me through the..."not-so-supportive" comments..but, even though it might've been some silly troll users bashing me, it's alright. I still want to say "thank you" to them. Yes, I felt a pang of pain when I read them, but..I mean, not everyone is gonna like every single writing, right? So, it's fine :) I also want to thank them for being very honest with their opinions, since it helps me with writing my stories and critiquing(?) my stories as well.
So..through pain and happiness, I would just like to thank every user that I have had a chance to encounter. And though I haven't been on this site for very long, I'm still glad I was able to stumble upon it :')

:D :) :D :) :D :) :D :) :D :) :D :) :D

Oh about the layout changes - they had to because we nearly went over the bandwidth limit last December and one way to prevent that from happening is to minimize the sizes of images and compressing html etc which resulted to layout changes. And then they changed it again for easier navigation. And the editor was updated because it is old and like everything that is old, it deteriorates. It was a disaster waiting to happen so to avoid risking site security, the developer updated it. If we have more money, we can purchase a higher bandwidth limit.
