sort of disheartening to see some user's accounts which are barely a day old & releasing an applyfic, perhaps i'm being cynical but it seems they're setting their story up for abandonment already.

i know the clique being talked about, but seriously... don't mind them!?? they're nice people and they're just appliers/authors like you and i! and honestly there are no applyfic royalties.

some people tend to mistake pretty/lengthy (or pretty & lengthy) apps for quality but that really isn't the case..
Hello my dear applyfic friends!
I came here because I wanted to learn about applyfics as I just started my very first one yesterday. This story helps me very much and is very entertaining, too!
Looking forward to the next few updates!
Chapter 112: @438
I think if 242 had a different opinion than the one I felt they clearly expressed, they would speak for themselves.
Besides that, I agree with the facts you're bringing to the table. What you're saying is absolutely true.
I think it would depend on the author to write a guideline or a rule on what type of uality they are willing to accept into their story.
It's also up to the author to choose how to write the challenges the lgbt characters will face. Will they go down the more fictional route and avoid confrontations? Or will they be more realistic?
Only the author can decide.

If these stories are simply creative outlets… why don't you create a non-apply fic story?
It'll save appliers the hassle of applying for a story you don't intend to write and authors who do intend to follow through, will finally get the attention they deserve.
Chapter 113: @434 I will not respect an opinion that supports the oppression of others and promotes ignorance. Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the subject, though.
Chapter 111: 428: i don't find that exceptionally true
i've been chosen for a quite a number of applyfics
but i don't exactly have an extended vocabulary
429: im in the same boat tho since i've been applying for over 3 years, the number difference is huge xD
but yehh i agree bout the creating apps prt ^^
Chapter 110: @424 I find your opinion to be ignorant. "Homouality is not really supported"??? Homouality is not a choice that has to be supported by anyone. Homouality is someone's ual orientation. Just like being black is someone's skin color. It just is as it is and it should be accepted and respected. It doesn't matter if someone supports it or not because they exist and that's what matters.
The reason I love fanfiction is for the originality. All you see on TV is usually heteroual couples. The same goes for books and films.
Online is the only place where writers explore relationships that differ from what is regularly shown by the media.
I'm glad that Aff and a few other sites like it, have homoual relationships. It differs from the usual hetero crap. I also appreciate the diversity AFF has been promoting lately by having applyfics accepting non-asian OC's. People from all different backgrounds exist and it should show in writing.
More than half the world is heteroual? Where do you even find the statistics? How could you even trust them, if they do exist? Don't you know how many people fear coming out?
Chapter 110: man i didn't want to comment until 424 tbh...like that's really ignorant. just because homouals etc. aren't supported in korea doesn't mean they don't exist
+ 60 years ago coming out would've been a really, really dumb idea. lying and saying you're straight on the other hand...
