A thread to chillax and interact while you wait for the answers to your comments or ~THE END~
Thanks for participating during this year and a half-ish, and I'm sad we have to goooo, but I've had a fantastic time and it was nice meeting and talking to you guys :)
it's up to the people who submit secrets. it's not like there's less stuff to talk about, but they choose to go elsewhere, I suppose... I'd rather go here.
Why don't you make your comments at anon_icon into graphics instead? No one is stopping you.
It's the same over there as here, only you can post 24/7 and you don't have to wait a week or longer to post it. People will comment on it there as they would have here.
I wish there would be, but I kind of agree with the anon. If people keep going to anon_icon rather than making secrets like they used to here, ther would be no point. I am so sad this community has died out, and it also makes me sad so see only 7 secrets here and 3 of them are about the same thing.
I wonder why people prefer getting feedback from someone instead of knowing who they are actually talking to? Are they so afraid of speaking their what's in their mind?
like I said, it's up to the people :c idk why they prefer that place either. the only reason I can think of is it's an instant way to post your "secret".
I think with the feedback thing, the reason why people prefer getting it from someone is because a) opinions are unvarnished. b) people take the criticism for what it is, just criticism. You don't attach it to a person and then spend a whole lot of time thinking if the person was genuine, not genuine etc etc. This is what I think and not everyone will feel the same way for sure.
But most importantly, the thing with anonymity is that it helps you voice stuff that you normally cant. There are good feelings and bad feelings. Good feelings have a place but where can you go with your bad feelings without someone calling you out? Wanting to vent it natural. Also, it takes some amount of confidence to say what you have to say face to face, when the opinion might be unpleasant. Not many of us are that confident to be that forthright.
That I am aware of. But that didn't happen until that big blow-up awhile ago no? Also there are certain amount of limitations and rules here right? Which even though are fair and well thought out in their own right, it doesn't mean people aren't going to occasionally want to vent in a real big way. I guess anon_icon helped in that regard.

Even if it's a post a month, I need the loveliness of secrets in graphic format.

Hope this makes sense. :)
