Does anyone else follow the hobbydrama subreddit? We were mentioned in last week's scuffles post. Apparently my online circld is smaller than I thought.

I do! I don't make posts but I read and comment on it.

I do. It's one of my absolute favorites and the only salve for the gaping wound I have in my heart without fandom_wank.

Brb, gotta go read what happened.

Come to think of it hobbydrama hasn't been appearing on my reddit dash.... looks like I have some catching up to do.
But where is fandom secrets mentioned? I can't find it. And last week's scuffles has 700 replies.

Same. I skimmed but I couldn't find anything.

Stuff about nostalgia

Wow, it's always fun being spoken of in the past tense.

I love being a zombie personally

Aww. I'm glad Cuteanimalpics is doing okay. They were a nice part of the community.

I only started reading it after it was mentioned here lol

And were we now? Over what?

It's that kinda stuff that makes me remember this is a public forum lol. In the same way I found it randomly many moons ago, so can anyone watching it.

Hi fellow lurkers!

A scuffle mentions the "zombie like state" of FFNET regarding moderation, response to users & outages.

Aside from all the history, all i can think of is how the fuck am I gonna have time to download all the old fics I've read/haven't found but have been dormant shining nuggets of gold beneath the sludge of the rest of five one must sift through? :'(

Aw man.

??? Are they shutting it dow???

AYRT

I don't 🤔 know if they actually are, there's no official post it anything, it was just some internet randos (like ourselves) speculating bases off of the level of mod/user interaction. Which,is that really anything to go off on? Or are people simply expecting more interaction based off of experiences on other sites? I don't recall ever reaching out to mods and always assuming no one was really running things that closely. Lol like the comment below, FFN has been in some stasis mode for as long as I can remember too! Front page updates were like..3-4 times a year, maybe 7, and usually had to do with backend/bug stuff.

lol

Going by that description, FFN has been a zombie for the last 20 years.

Hah, yes. Just last night I remarked elsewhere about AO3's fundraising drive doing remarkably well, and a friend and I got into a conversation about how every now and then we wind up over at FFN for some reason and see that someone commented on an old fic and we're like "uhhh yeah wow, we haven't been here for ten years and didn't expect anyone else would be either..."

I mean I remember the very very early days of AO3 when people were crossposting to both because "no one reviews on AO3, I actually get feedback at FFN!" but I'm pretty sure that hasn't been true for a very long time.

It was really just a "does any one remember/used to go on F!S? HD sub really gives those vibes. And then people reminiscing about the secrets, particular users, and the comm in general/similar comms & LJ. And of course the decline lol. Alot of nostalgia.

Remember when Something Awful used to obsessively follow and discuss this place? Those were the days.

Hiiii! I'm always pleased to lurk
