Yoshino in the Moonlight2: Subject: Ideas related to fan-fiction...
Hello there? You seem to be a fan-fiction writer from the U.K., and well, Iwant to tell you that I have several ideas related to fan-fiction, and Iwonder if you would like to discuss with me about these ideas. I just want toshare these ideas with someone, and perhaps you could give me some additionalthoughts about these ideas. I also wonder if you take fan-fiction seriously, or if you don't really carethat much for it.
AlternativeRocker: Hi, I was just wondering, why don't you think I take fanfiction seriously? You have been on the site for about the same amount of time I have, and you have only wrote three fics whereas I have wrote twenty! And when I read the first part of your message I was actually looking forward to discussing ideas with you, but I'm quite annoyed by your last sentence.Please reply soon with some answers.
Yoshino in the Moonlight2: I actually have two ideas. First, I wonder what you think of the idea of a discussion forum about fan-works and fan-culture in general, to discuss about anything made by fans (mainly, fanfiction and fanart, of course). I have seen plenty of forums for fans of a show or movie or book, but I have never seen one for fans of fan-fiction and fan-art itself. What do you think of this idea?
AlternativeRocker: Can you just tell me why you think I don't take my fanfiction seriously first?
Yoshino in the Moonlight2: "Can you just tell me why you think I don't take my fanfiction seriously first?" I never wrote that. I was just asking whether you did or not.So, what do you think of my idea?

Now that I read over it, I now believe that I may have been wrong in calling him evil, but it was just the fact that I was quite probably annoyed on that particular day for some reason or other ;)
I'm not sure if he ment it in a mean way, I kinda got the impression he was just wondering if you were, cos maby he wanted to talk to someone about his ideas that he can trust. And since his ideas were about a forum for writers, he probably wanted to ask someone who spends a lot of time on them. I dont think he was saying that you dont take fanfic seriously, more checking wether youd be the kinda person who would take part in the community, and take part in this forum idea. I dunno if im making sence, but i dont think he meant it in a demeaning way....
ReplyDeleteYeah when I read over it now, I see that he might have meant it like that. So I may edit this blog and say that :)
ReplyDeleteAwwh we threatened this poor guy and I just think he badly phrased his English. Oh why do I find that kind of funny??
ReplyDeleteYou might want to go explain to him now. Haha.
Also tell him that FreekyDisaster18 says his name is not cool... lol
