Fandom Problem 4234:

I been kicked out of a lot of fandom spaces this year because I dare try to interact with people. I miss the wacky old days of the internet where fandoms were more open to people instead of making us feel lonely and isolated. This fandom I was in was super small so I got excited to see there were still fans and when I tried talking to them they started screaming at me to leave them alone so they made a callout post on me playing the victim claiming I was harassing them they turned everyone against me now I am more lonely and isolated then ever. I wish we had the old wacky days of the internet fandom back.

Slow Descent Into Madness

read it on the AO3 at https://ift.tt/boCm2Wl

by AliceJohnson

A crazy villain is stalking Dick while he's been feeling off for the past couple of weeks. The problem is, his family decided not to brief him about it until Damian snapped during a fight, bringing everything to light.

What will Dick do? Tell his family about this weird sickness, or push through it hoping they catch the freak quickly enough for him to take care of it later and hopefully privately?

Also, why was he so fucking emotional all of the time?

A Flower's Affection

A Flower's Affection by KatelynFics

"Tell me how to passive-aggressively say 'fuck you' in flower," he demanded loudly.

Kirishima blinked. What the hell kinda question was that? --- In a world where heroes hide behind a wall of anonymity, UA University serves as a "Quirk-Specialized Training Academy" secretly raising Japan's next generation of heroes. Musutafu college town boasts many local businesses, including the floristry owned by Eijirou Kirishima and his dreams of maybe attending the prestigious university.

On the flip side of this dream is Katsuki Bakugou, a freshman with a score to settle. When an odd request becomes an unexpected friendship, both boys find themselves exploring new territory.

But Bakugou finds the redhead's smile hides more than anyone could have thought, and as Kirishima's dreams draw closer, so does a past he thought he'd left behind.

@ 4234:

Not sure if they're checking for any responses, but mostly I wanted to agree. I haven't been in many fandoms, but even the main one I'm in now is alot more "cliquey" compared to years ago when RP and ask blogs were still really common. Now, alot of RP is mostly in Discord, and while I agree the messaging is easier/better than on Tumblr, Discord groups feel more closed off and gatekeepy at times. Plus my OTP is a NOTP for alot of people in the fandom, and I'm not interested in the juggernaut ships, so I get left out of alot of fandom events.

Tbh, I know it's not for everyone, but I've done better in a multi-fandom server I joined compared to any of the servers that are specific to the fandom I'm in. The one I joined I only did,cuz the admin is someone I already knew from my main fandom. I knew they were fair and kind, and they had modding experience in other servers, and it's been overall a great experience, until the server unfortunately died a while back, just due to the admin and other mods having irl stuff come up and take up all their time.

The only other server I've had a good time in was one that's specifically for fic writers in the fandom, which has events and showcases fics of people in the server, so it's alot of us pumping each other up and infodumping about our ideas and AUs.

Something I've had to learn to look out for when going into servers is in rules. Channels that state people's triggers and squicks is well-meaning, but unfortunately, in every server I've been in that had that turned into a wankfest sooner or later, usually with 2 or 3 BNFs in the server attacking each other or smaller creators in the server, using things in the trigger and squick list to harass or claim they were being harassed. Similar wankfests happened if the server has a list of topics and/or ships that aren't allowed to be talked about. Even if someone doesn't mention a forbidden topic/ship in the server, if they post stuff about it on Tumblr, Twitter, or ao3, they usually end up getting attacked in the server or just straight-up banned.

The servers I had/have good times had few if any forbidden tropes/topics/ships. If anything, it was only asked they only got mentioned in certain channels. The few times any wank came up, it got shut down within the same day.

Unfortunately, I don't have any advice for navigating fandom on Tumblr (and I avoid fandom spaces on Instagram and Twitter). I tend to just keep to myself on here, only ever talking to 2 or 3 people and not even all that much.

I hope you're okay, #4234. I'm in a small fandom, too, and I know that gossip runs rampant, so people end up hearing about callouts, even if they don't see the actual post. I've never been in that situation, so I don't know if this is good advice or not, but I'd suggest only sticking to talking to a few people for now. There will be some people who will refuse to interact with you, but even if others aren't actively reaching out, there are others who don't believe the callout, whether cuz they know the person posting it isn't credible or they've become skeptical when it comes to callout posts in general. So there will still be people willing to hear you out, if you choose to stay in that fandom and try making friends in it again.

Definitely close your asks (or at least close anon) if you haven't done that already, and depending on the level of harassment you're getting, I'd suggest making your posts nonrebloggable. I'm not sure if you're a creator in the fandom, so I know it can hurt to keep creating and not get any notes, but it's better than people reblogging your art, edits or writing only to add hurtful comments to keep harassing you.

I might not know who you are, but I'm rooting for you and hope you'll find a space in fandom (current one or another fandom if you decide to move on) that welcomes you.

Posting since this is a response to a previous problem.
