Check out the ALTERNIA REBORN ; 18+ FANTROLL RP community on Discord - hang out with 112 other members and enjoy free voice and text chat.

I'm not sure if anyone still follows this blog or cares about fantrolls, but I'm going to be most active in this server these days. It's active, friendly, and really recaptures the spirit of the old fantroll community in a way I'm really glad still exists somewhere. If anyone wants to join me, that's where I'll be.

So...do people still do this?

I know it's been years since I last posted anything on this account. And I figured I might as well drop my explanation for that.

I was interested in the fantroll community almost from its genesis. I was reading Homestuck since it wasn't even a year old, and from the moment they introduced the trolls, and Alternia as a setting, I fell in love with it all. As a lifelong fan of worldbuilding and speculative alien societies, I truly believed I was seeing a rich, realized setting come to life before my eyes, and I wanted to be a part of it and explore it. When people started making their own trolls, it was only natural I followed suit. I never imagined any of my characters being involved in Sburb sessions or anything like that, because that never interested me. I just wanted to experience life in Alternia and its people.

As time went on, it started to look more and more like Hussie was making the whole thing up as he went along, and that he had been taking the piss the entire time. The arbitrary details and incongruities added up, and it was what left me convinced that trolls were never supposed to be taken seriously. That was what left me disillusioned with everything. Suddenly, Alternia stopped feeling like a realized, living, breathing setting that happened to have jokes and more like a giant joke that I hadn't been in on. I felt like I had been scammed. I felt like I had created a bunch of characters and poured my time and attention into them for nothing, because the world they inhabited wasn't ever intended as anything more than a cheap throwaway gag.

And, at the time, seeing everyone sing Hussie's praises and hold him up on a pedestal as a master storyteller, while I couldn't help but see that the emperor had no clothes, left me genuinely feeling like I was in a cult, especially when criticism of Homestuck or Hussie himself was continually dismissed. I felt like my outlook wasn't welcome here, and I didn't feel like I belonged in this community.

That was what led me to distance myself from this side of the internet. I didn't feel comfortable exploring anything related to Homestuck, because that was all bound up in what had been an isolating and uncomfortable time in my life.

But I don't think that's true any more. At least from the outside looking in, it feels like more people agree with me than not these days. Yes, trolls were a joke from day one, and the joke was on all of us for taking it seriously.

But we didn't take it as a joke. It wasn't a joke to us. We took what had been a bunch of off-the-cuff, deliberately overcomplicated ideas held together with chewing gum and string and turned it into an actual universe people could enjoy and appreciate. And I've come to see the beauty in that. The world of fantrolls doesn't belong to Hussie. It belongs to us. Because we are the ones who made something out of what he gave us, and gave that something meaning.

So...I'm thinking of picking this blog back up. Because I miss Mazeni and Alvari and Keskie and Himora and everyone. Because I had shoved them aside because they reminded me of a time I felt like I was wasting my mental energy on living a lie, but now I feel like that lie was realer than anything else that came of this fandom. I think it's time I showed them the respect they deserved.

Are there still people on this site (or others) that talk about and roleplay fantrolls? If so, I'd love to get in touch with you.

[askclstrolls]

are you the one that run the interactive roleplay/crack fic iji fan blog called alphastruck? reason i ask is becuse when i click the link i found on tv tropes next to this blog. it show the blog is not there. did it get deleted/lost or something?

It was deleted in the Tumblr purge by mistake, as far as I’m aware. I’m working on seeing if I can get it restored.

Mike Miller, of Avon Park, Florida, and his family are in grave danger of losing their home. After their home loan was sold to another loan

Hey so this is kind of. Not how I want to come across on tumblr, but I’m honestly at the end of my rope.

My best friend in the whole world, the one person in my general area who even cared about me enough to try and help me through the horrible shit that happens to me in my life, is being evicted. The mortgage company called him today and told him that his family has a month to leave. They called him on Christmas fucking Eve.

I have no words. I’m freaking out. I don’t know what to do except ask everyone out of the kindness of their hearts to give whatever they can; if they can’t give anything, then please, for the love of god, boost this around. Reblog it. Make it make the rounds. I’ll spam this as much as I have to. But we have nothing else to do. Please.

I have no financial means of my own. I can’t even move out of my parents’ house. I don’t want the only person I have around here to be homeless. I want to do everything I possibly can to help.

If you don’t have money to spare, you c an still spread the word so it reaches someone who does! a reblog is a pretty low price to pay to give what could end up being a very important christmas present

Mike Miller, of Avon Park, Florida, and his family are in grave danger of losing their home. After their home loan was sold to another loan company, Mike has been told that if he can't pay the remainder of the loan; an unbelievable $300,000, left on an $80,000 loan after 19 years of interest and...

As an update on the campaign, Mike still needs help paying the internet bill, so any donations are much appreciated. Anything helps, but if you can’t make it, at least consider spreading the word. Thank you.

[alphastruck]

By the way, a couple of updates.

Mike’s able to keep his house for now, but the rent’s being upped and he’s in danger of losing it if it’s a day late. Any donations are still greatly appreciated, but even if you can’t putting the word out is a big help. Here is the Gofundme page.

On a lighter note, he and my girlfriend will be doing a stream tomorrow, October 27th, from 5-8 PM EST. Primarily Silent Hill, but there’s no set end time so there could be some other stuff afterwards! It should be a lot of fun, and I hope to see you guys there. I’ll be posting a link when it actually starts.

After a loan was sold to a debt collection agency, Mike has been told that if he can't pay an unbelievable $300,000 by November 15th, his home will be foreclosed on, leaving him, his mother, step-father,...

Hey guys, I just want to get the word out, but a good friend of mine is having some serious financial difficulties and really needs the help. Don’t feel obliged to donate if you legitimately can’t make it, but any little bit really does help. And if you don’t have the money, you can still help by passing on the word. Thanks a lot for reading this. It really does mean a lot to me.
