❝ HEADACHE ›› APPLYFIC CONFESSIONS

admission 240

so many authors set their deadlines so far away. I get that its to give applicants more time but if the deadline is too far off (like a month) people just get uninterested and the story drops. and yeah i get people are busy with school, life, etc, but if that were the case then you probably shouldn't apply? i see it unfair for someone who turned theirs in the first week the applyfic is posted. theyre waiting much longer to see results that they didn't make the applyfic. 

admission 241

Honestly, I love it when the author says that your love interest can be anyone but PREFERS *insert author's bias group(s)* at least you're not limiting yourself a certain audience by doing this. Like I found an applyfic that allowed idol love interests EXCEPT B.A.P & BLOCK B. 

admission 242

i've been thinking about doing a appyfic for some months, but now i'm scared no one will apply because of i literally don't know anyone in the site? i just apply for fics, i didn't realized that having connections was a big deal 

admission 243

tbh, when applying for a fic, the first thing i look is how many applicants it already had. if it's less then 5, i'm not applying (unless all the 5 reviews were good) because i know the author will end up giving up in the fic bcs of lack of interest

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.

@433
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 113: 435: not really wierd, at least for me cause i do think exo is overrated
but i still love em
so why wouldn't i apply for their fics

as for others, they may just like the idea of the story so they dont mind applying even tho its exo-centric
spontaneity #7
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...
