Application No-No's
FG Guide To: Apply Fics
Application No-No's
*Specifically for Writers
There are so many things that turn a good app bad and here is a list of some of those things:
1. Too Much Commentary (It gets the person off track - it's very easy to do!)
2. Too small font (I don't want to squint to do your app!)
3. A background picture (Kinda confusing on this one but whenever people add something 'cool' to the background to add some pizaz to their app and when you click it ends up highlighting everything as if it was a picture. It's annoying. Don't do it.)
4. Asking for 10 Ulzzang pics (You only really need 3! Google some if you don't like it!)
5. Asking for tons of hobbies (If you want to stay realistic no one has over 5 dedicated hobbies, that's just annoying and unnecessary)
6. Light colored font (Once again squinting, you're damaging people's eyes, especially with light blues)
7. Crazy Fonts (AKA Scripts and giant loopy crap, for titles its fine but not as the font the applier is supposed to use for personality and what not)
8. Being SUPER DETAILED on family (ESPECIALLY if its an Idol Group fic chances are they aren't going to interact with their families at all, if the families play a big role then and ONLY then it makes sense)
9. Asking for more than 2 dance/sing/rap links (It's more difficult than you think just have them have a singing 'twin')
10. Making stage names mandatory (Not every idol has a stage name!)
11. Pimping it out and not putting a source code (Put a source code or your format is gonna be f-ed up)
12. Putting the application on a different website. Some people need time and can't do it all in one shot,
it's really annoying too especially because you can't save if your computer decides to be a face
and crash during the middle of your app. If you REALLY want it to be private than add them as
a friend and they can make the blog 'friends only'.

If You Are Writing: Rethink "Can I Fill This App And Can It Be Exactly What I'm Looking For?" And when you ask for tons of this stuff don't complain when it takes weeks for someone to apply, you kinda asked for it.
