I feel awesomely freaked out 23 Wednesday Nov 2011
Just to get this started, the first one was written in the author’s foreword section. A couple of weeks ago I was browsing random fanfics when I saw this DaraGon fic and voila! I have myself a note I don’t even remember what for. I messaged the person, asking for clarification, but I guess what I sent was too long and troublesome to read that s/he opted to just delete that part with my name on it. I really don’t know how to react. Did s/he somewhat made a mistake? But my username is rather unique to get confuse at.
Here’s the screen cap:
Above Note:Alright, this is creepy.I’ve been seeing my name on people’s fanfics lately and Idk if it’s system-generated “comment” or something. I also dunno if I should be flattered (that someone actually paid attention to me) or not as it’s so randomly stated. Tbqh, we do not even share the same OTP. Talk about being totally weirded (out)! I made it too small, sorry.
Now, tell me about it.
I honestly do NOT have the slightest idea why these authors mentioned me, more so, know me. We don’t even have the same OTP! I mean, I don’t take it wrongly, really. It just surprised me. In fact I was quite pleased, feeling relevant all of a sudden. But doing a double-take, I think maybe, these messages are “system-generated”. I might as well save face before feeling all-gooey.
The latest one is a yet another DaraGon fic who again mentioned my username. (Seriously? No offense to DaraGon fans though, I like them but for some reasons, I find it awkward to read fanfics about them.) So just you won’t have the idea that I am disillusioned, I decided to screen-cap another proof. I mean, are there two of us who uses the same username?
If you’re curious about the said fics I’ll probably post the links later, AFF is acting up. The fics: Wanted: Boyfriend, and bear with me as I couldn’t find the second fic.
By acting up, I meant this:
Anyone, kindly enlighten me. If these comments are system-generated, ignore me, and then pass the popcorn.
Let’s laugh together.
