THE ANONYMOUS FEEDBACK MEME
I just about never do these things, but I put my name down on this one. Maybe it will help me be able to write again :(

Also, MapleStory has sucked my life and freetime away. I love it.

I wish people would think to use the tags. That is why we have them, after all D: /random

The one thing I still had to call my own!!!

.......who am I kidding, that was given away a long time ago xD

[out_of_words24]

haha og my god maple. i used to play it a couple of years ago, and i got all the way up to level 64, and then someone stole all my money (!!!!) and i...got bored XD

[taylormercury]

ohmygod, level 64? that seems so amazing and far away to my mere level 27 XD ahh, that sucks about the money though :( I...don't know how maple could get boring though >>

[out_of_words24]

i played for ages. idek how i did it, really, it's very mind-numbing, maple XD oh, you'll see. after a while it just gets harder and harder to gain enough exp to get to the next level, and then you run out of places to train because it feels like it's too slow everywhere, etc. what job's your character? i was a fire mage XD

[taylormercury]

it's already hard to level up, but that might be cause i can't spend all day every day on maple XD thats why there are other worlds though, for the scarier, harder monsters! oh fire mages are cool! I'm a rogue right now, and going to be an assassin when I get to 30 :D

[wad]

I was gonna do the meme then I realized that I have a bunch of works in progress but not many fics that are actually finished xD;;

[taylormercury]

FICS. WRITE THEM!!!!!!!! FINISH THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!

[kyuppuccino]

I am amused by people who use tags.. randomly. Why even use them.. D:

[kyuppuccino]

Oh yeah, plz to be writing a few fics soon! DO WANT!

[taylormercury]

wait, what do you mean? XD I meant fic tags, because everyone keeps making 'looking for' posts when we have tags for just such things D:!
or are you D:!ing at the same thing? *is so not awake today -_-*

and sssssssh, I'm trying to write fic. but MapleStory keeps calling my name >>

[kyuppuccino]

I meant both fic tags and personal lj tags D:

[ajikto]

are you talking about miracle? But the tagging system is confusing, and adding tags might burden the mods. Does it not?

[taylormercury]

Yes, this was about miracle______ but if you notice the time stamp, this entry was also made in 2008. The tagging system actually makes sense on the community though, even if it's undergoing some changes and fics haven't been able to be tagged for ages, but the fics we do have tagged can be found easily by author (if they received a tag before we reached our limit) and subject/pairing/ot3/etc. There's nothing confusing about that, and we already have tags, so the burden is already there.

All the same, this original comment was not made about people not putting tags in their fics, as that is something us mods only have control of at the moment, but about when people were not using our tagging system to find fics, and posting many requests to the community.

[ajikto]

Oh, but almost everyone looking for a fic forgets who wrote them. Isn't that the reason they're looking for it? I mean, if people remembered the authors, they could just go to the author's LJ and find it there, everyone has a master fic list right? and usually people who are looking for fics only remember the pairings and few events.

Well, if theire IS people who are looking for a fic and tells the who the writer, why don't you make a rule on that post.

1. People are allowed to request only if has failed searching through the tagging system and google.

Just a suggestion, to lessen you mod's burden. You guys have done a lot already.

[taylormercury]

As I said, we also tag by pairing, and people can usually remember the pairings. These was over a year ago however, so it's irrelevant now, but at the time a lot of people were making posts because they simply couldn't be bothered to look through the tags to find the fics, and it was irritating because us mods put a lot of hard work into implimenting the tagging system.

As it is now, if you've had a read over of the rules any time within the last year, you will see that we DO have a rule where all fic requests go into a masterpost just for that reason, so as not to clog up the community. As I said, this entry was made over a year ago, and we've added rules to the community since I posted this.
