Re: Tips for "surviving" fandom?

(Anonymous) 2017-11-18 11:21 pm (UTC)(link)
I don't know, I never really had too much trouble in fandom, and I've been relatively active in various ones for years now. I started on ff.net, moved to LJ, then later AO3 and tumblr. I wrote in some of the big/crazy fandoms as well, like HP and SPN. Through all of that, I never really had too many problems.

Like someone above me said, I think it was mostly a matter of following people, not fandom hubs or later tags, and also just moving on whenever something got depressing or scary or even boring. I've never been bothered just dropping people/communities/tags/fandoms when they got rough. I just noodle around in my own corners of fandoms and basically let the crazy happen to other people.

I never really got a lot of anon hate or comments either, but then I've never really gotten a lot of private messaging at all, no matter what platform I'm on. I don't know if something I'm doing is actively discouraging it or if I'm just not the sort of person/presence that people feel compelled to talk to/at.
