Re: Question about friending memes

[(Anonymous)]

ayrt - Me neither, but part of dealing with fandom on LJ is dealing with the non-fandom parts. That's always been my experience of it, anyway, especially for older fandoms.

Re: Question about friending memes

AYRT - I know what you mean, but before people at least went into detail about things. Like, they talked about problems they were having at work, not just "went to work today" or they talked about Girl Scout troop drama, not just "girl scout cookie day." Although it did help that you generally met people from other sites or LJ comms, not friending memes, so maybe some of it is that the more mundane stuff wasn't as mundane because you did tend to know them beforehand?

Re: Question about friending memes

ayrt - Well, every fandom friend I have is a friend who was a total stranger at some point, so reading their journal was a little like picking up a book and starting in the middle. I didn't know what was going on in their lives, I didn't know the people they referred to or the other activities they were involved in, etc. so everything non-famdon was mundane. Getting to know them over time was mostly a matter of hearing these little details over the course of months or years. It was also a matter of asking questions and letting them know I was "listening" to what they had to say, even if I couldn't comment extensively on the topic. On a similar note, it usually works when people blog what they'd like to read. It draws people with shared interests.

I think that the lack of detail is partly down to LJ being so much quieter than it used to be. People don't go into as much detail if they don't think there are people reading who care to hear it. I guess I don't have any real answers, and I'm sorry. Making friends is a long process and online, it can be even longer because the interaction is limited. Good luck. :)
