I'd have to do one hell of a dig to do that. It was over a year ago.

The gist was: The community, and fandom in general, set me on the path to exploring my sexuality and finding I wasn't straight.

I forgot I mentioned the silly one!

The silly one was about a dream I had and wanting to re-create it.

(Anonymous) 2014-04-06 08:16 pm (UTC)(link)
That's happened to me as well, OP. I also have trouble opening up and all of my secrets have been genuine, and I work really hard on figuring out how to word them so as not to offend or stir up wank. And yet the last secret I posted, which was very personal, had 90% of the comments insulting, belittling, and calling me a troll. I took it way too personally and haven't made a secret since. :(

You're lucky to get support most of the time, OP. Most of my secrets are totally misinterpreted and spiralled into trainwrecks about 60% of the time, you never really know with f!s commenters.

(Anonymous) 2014-04-06 09:39 pm (UTC)(link)
I now feel like I must have been incredibly lucky.

DA

Yeah I would say my split is about the same. Unlike the other anons I really don't care tho. Some of it gets hilarious enough that I really don't care that it was interpreted completely wrong. Or if a small part of the secret was focused on. So what? It is literally fair game here so I don't really care.

Maybe you just hit one of those weird berserker buttons.

Like markings on Huskies or bathtub soap shelves. What I'm saying is it may have not been you.

Or it could just be mob mentality - when a few people decide a secret is a troll secret, a lot of people jump on the bandwagon, even if they didn't think it was a troll secret before, because they don't want to be the one who didn't get it, the one who took the bait.

lmao

Yeaaaa, who knows. f!s can be unpredictable sometimes, but I wouldn't take reactions to secrets too personally. (And I don't think it matters how 'innocent' or unassuming your secret is, it doesn't even need to be anything traditionally wank worthy to rub people the wrong way. If you submit secrets regularly this is pretty much bound to happen at some point, so don't feel too bad OP.)

I've made (and posted of course) two secrets and replies were nice. The secrets were about fandom staff though. Anyway for me this comm is 50/50 nice/ignored.

Why do you think I made nothing but troll secrets after a while? All my genuine ones were completely shat upon.

(Anonymous) 2014-04-06 10:06 pm (UTC)(link)
I know if I ever want to start wank, all I have to do is send in one of my real secrets.

(Anonymous) 2014-04-06 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
All my secrets are genuine, to a point. Lately though I've often experienced people reading completely nonexistent things into my secrets. I just can't even understand where they're coming from with some of this stuff, so now I stick to making secrets with short, declarative sentences just to avoid rousing someone's axe-to-grind.

We should probably cool it a little with the troll accusations honestly

(Anonymous) 2014-04-06 09:12 pm (UTC)(link)
There's no way to predict how people will take things and a lot of the regulars here are really erratic. One day they'll be very supportive and then the next they're a raging asshole. I don't submit genuine secrets anymore and I avoid GC threads that are very personal or about anything I'm passionate about. I've been dogpiled too many times and had to take a break from FS for a while because I nearly reached the point of hating some of the people here. The ironic part is that they weren't the intentional/known trolls, they're people who think they aren't trolls and are so super accepting and really they're just entitled, hypocritical douches.

0/10 troll. It's clear as daylight that you're just posting this so no one will cry "TROLL!!!!" at your future troll attempts. You know what: it won't work. Try harder next time.

I usually just have a bunch of accusations and wildly inaccurate assumptions about my personal life and why I do / feel the things that I do.

The e-psychs seem to come out hard on this site.
Guess they gotta use that internet psychiatry degree SOMEwhere.

Yeah, I've got a lot of accusations of trollery for what were genuine secrets; it never occurred to me when posting them that anyone would possibly think I was a troll. I got really fed up with it and posted an actual troll secret only to have everyone take it seriously. So, I feel like the lesson was: you can't win.

I concur, OP.

(Anonymous) 2014-04-07 06:02 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, the comment sections tend to be pretty rough these days. That's why I generally skip around and never dig too deep in threads about my secrets, but instead scan the ones for other people's secrets.
