POLL! Regarding fannish participation

[cathalin]

Because polls are fun! Remember, you can edit your responses, and leave some blank and come back or never finish, whatever. Just for fun: no one's grading you. :D

I never really know how to judge the relative size of a fandom (I stick to the edges of all fandoms) so I can only really think of fandoms as big or small in terms of how I feel about them. Adam is my big fandom, Teen Wolf is a smaller fandom for me, etc.

I am still using ff.net because it seems lots of the younger Percy fans are on there and they are so used to crappy fanfics there that I can get a lot of positive attention for even a mediocre fic.

I hate Tumblr because I can put hours into something gorgeous and because I'm not Tumblr famous no one sees or cares and it never gets noticed. But that's where most of the Percy fandom is so posting it at LJ it also doesn't get noticed. OH WELL.

I don't suppose you have any Percy recs??? it's a fandom where I'm having a tough time finding good fic. I've mostly been looking on A03. Hadn't really checked out ff.net for fic.

I probably do but I don't do a great job of keeping track of things I've read. I mean, I have read good fic but I'd need to track it down. Is there anything in particular you are/are not looking for?

[amothea]

I'm rather flexible. I care more about good plot, characters voices, and I don't mind if it's gen/het/slash.

I think you should've included fanfiction.net too. I know that not that many people use it nowadays, what with AO3 being so popular, but it's still a sure way to find fic for some fandoms. For example, when I want to read Harry Potter fics or One Piece fics I always go to ff.net they're like establised fandoms there, you know? (ETA: also, it's a sure way to get reviews. I don't know why, but people are more inclined to review on ff.net than on AO3...my Harry Potter and Supernatural fics always get reviews there and even constructive critisism which I really appreciate.)

Anyway, this was a really good poll :D Oh and just a side-note, my main fandom and the one I really love at the moment is Teen Wolf, but I don't see it as huge, you know? Not compared to the Marvel or Supernatural fandoms :)

Hi-I'm really just checking in to say HELLO *waves* I still exist. I don't understand why people don't comment more on A03 -- I love reading there--but still would post first to LJ asI think I'd have a bigger chance of getting actual comments. (That is if I were actually, you know, writing anything.)

[amothea]

Man, I still remember when fandom hung out in one or two places. Good poll. :)
