I love writing this fic - because a lot of people seem to like it. I keep seeing them scream on twitter and it's like, I'm too old for these compliments, it hurts my little unhealthy heart. But like, ;; I'm happy too.

Hey, - I've changed your name, but the color is barely off of our other links. If you're okay with that, let me know or you can pick a different color! I've changed it to give you a preview (You would be able to see it in the member search or on the front page once you post)- just tag me here when you get a look at it, and we'll go from there!

staff edit: archiving this to keep the board clear. feel free to make another thread if you're unsatisfied with your color

Look, Mom, I am not listening to chinese/japanese cartoons, I am listening to PaIN AnD AnGST - oh my god I'm going to be in this hell hole listening to this stupid drama, this stupid anime, and this stupid audio drama because I'm absolutely pathetic.

In other news, thankfully pinyin and romaji are still easy to read for me as I butcher literally everything in my accent while my cats stare at me and beg me silently to stop singing.

While I can't speak for the entire community, I am personally interested in a graphics bingo to slowly finish in my free time, and I personally find competitions exciting as well. Though, competition wise, I would recommend holding off the voting until all entries have been submitted within a certain timeline, or there will be mounting disadvantages for anyone that submits later on, since there will be much lesser time between the submission and given deadline for anyone to see and vote, whereas the first few submissions will have majority of the attention, and by extension, votes.

Of course, these are just polite suggestions and not obligations. I appreciate the staff coming up with events and spicing up things for us all, as always! Anything from small scale events to bingos will be amazing, since events do spark quite a bit of muse. Perhaps even having graphic makers or writers use graphics or writings made by their respective partners or a duo (roulette) competition will be very interesting- something similar to the trade challenge activity that and came up with/participated in.


Hmmm, that's a very good suggestion. I'll definitely talk to staff about a separate voting thread- it might be more useful. The interest in graphics here in this thread gave me some ideas to try to do smaller events- graphic wise. I'm not sure there's enough interest to do a roulette or a duo competition, but definitely something we'll keep in mind. Again, if anyone has more ideas, please let me know- PM or in this thread!

I'll bring it up to staff on our next chat! If other people would like this, go ahead and like the post- I already have plenty ideas and I'll be happy to keep it a continuous thing- with the help of all staff. We like hearing what events the community would like.
I feel like it could also be extended to like a graphics bingo and other elements too tbh.i'd love a graphics bingo with themes/items yougotta make a graphic for


We did have a graphics bingo and I'm fine doing something simple- but not a lot of people seemed interested. I'll be happy to do something smaller if people are genuinely interested though. I've only held off on events because people are busy! <3

yes :clap: please

uhhh, tho idk if i'll be able to do bingo any time soon rip. im,,, swamped. ish. a lot. idk tho, maybe something for winter/christmas break would be best? maybe, a tad less entries tho because,,, winter break :sob:


I don't mind doing smaller bingos- but you can still complete bingos even when the time is up. You just don't get the title or usergroup. Otherwise, you still can complete them after time is up. I'll talk to all the staff and we'll see what we can come up with to see if we can do a smaller one or not!

Thanks for all the feedback y'all. It helps us come up with fun things for you all.

I have spent an excessive amount of time this past month in the hospital getting testing done. Nothing is more stressful than waiting for those results knowing that no matter what you do, --your life is going to change, and in a way that you don't want. On a similar note, I want nothing more than people to look past the way I used to be so I can find some semblance of happiness in what I enjoy doing before I am not able to anymore.


As someone who has gone through this more than once, had gotten that news that changed my life, if you ever need a voice, please reach out. No one might know exactly what you're going through, but I'm sure that there's someone out there who can talk to you and be there with you and give you that. If you ever need an ear, please reach out. I wish you all the best.
