James is the sort of person to sketch random little pictures in the margins of books, on himself, and on other people. He’s the sort of person to draw cheerful little things to brighten up people’s days for them, and sketch darker, more intricate drawings when alone. He’s the sort to never realize how amazing and breathtaking his drawings are and always consider himself an “okay artist” no matter what anyone else says.
Y'all okay????
The RA fandom seriously needs more fanfictions that aren’t just crap like really an hour of searching and I’ve found three good fanfics.
And there’s literally just reposts of the same fanart over and over again? Is there like a fandom economic crisis going on in the RA fandom????
Y'all okay??? Over there????? With like one good fanfiction and the same eight sketch dumps of Gilan over and over again?????
yes there is a crisis going on lmfao. blogs go dead. people abandon their blogs (me included) and come back to a ghost town-fandom. all that’s left is mediocre fanfictions and a few fanartists crying in corners bc no one is left to appreciate their art
What is with this hate? Everyone else is enjoying this fandom and writing their own little ideas and sketching their own little pictures. I’m thankful I have the wonderful chance to see all of them. Isn’t it beautiful? To see people having fun and loving a series? There’s no need to be hateful. Write your own stories, make your own fanart if you don’t like what you’ve got, but I beg, don’t hate on people. Most of all, all my writers and artists, don’t ever stop because someone’s hating on you, okay? Keep being awesome RA fandom!
Sooo… I kinda agree with both points here. The RA fandom is not exactly the largest fandom out there, lbh. So it’s no surprise that it’s hard to find some good quality fanfics, and we keep re-seeing old art. It’s not necessarily “hate” by pointing that out. And yes, all of us in this fandom are trying there best to come up with new content. I also recommend you guys check out the author ‘TrustTheCloak’ at FanFiction.Net. Anyways, I hope you guys all have a wonderful day!
I don't think it's particularly this post, although saying that all but a few fanfictions are crap is most decidedly hate. However, as of late, multiple accounts have been attacking ra fanfic writers. I'm going to guess that @corpscommandantcrowley had finally had enough of seeing it and decided to address it in this post. It's quite distressing to see such hate and disrespect going around, I think we can all agree!

bruh i think you just misread a LOT
at least from my point of view, that is. i do write my own stuff, and it can be found on both ffn and ao3. what i was trying to say at least was that not many people are left and those that are aren’t what the fandom used to be.
some blogs used to have over 1k followers and they were super nice and everyone appreciated every contribution. but as @legendaryrangerhalt pointed out, people were legit hated out of the community. that’s why i’m barely active. that’s why a few of my friends are barely active. idk about op but i do agree that whats left is beautiful. i’m just disappointed.
Firstly, let me address the original poster of this. If you dislike the fanfiction you're finding, I have to ask that you not call it "crap". It's rude to the writers and if you don't like what you're finding, write fanfiction yourself! Also, why can't people repost art? We like it, and our blogs are a collection of things we like! Let people enjoy writing, so please don't be hateful.
Aseikh, "mediocre fanfictions" wow, that's not very nice. But I see here you pointed out that since you also write fanfiction and contribute to the fandom yourself, it doesn't matter so we won't dwell there. Define exactly what you mean by, "the fandom isn't what it used to be". I'm sure some people have left, but even though they're gone, that doesn't mean that the fandom is immediately bad! A lot of the new fanfiction writers are absolutely amazing, and all of the blogs I've seen are hilarious! Everyone else is enjoying this fandom, and the reason you're "disappointed" (as you mention in so many of your posts) is because you're being critical and trying to find fault where there is no fault to be found. Honestly, if you just relax some and really take a moment to breathe, I think you'll see the fandom in a whole new light!
Y'all okay????

Hey leave the writers and artists alone. If you’re not going to contibute mountains yourself you have no right to heckle those who put stuff out there. Also, this is a fandom. It’s not a serious place, and it’s not a place where people have to upload daily. This isn’t some school project, it’s what we do for fun. I agree that the fandom is pretty quiet, and that’s sad, and I wish there were more people to chat with as well. But please don’t put pressure on those for whom this is a fun outlet. Also there’s a fair bit of fanfic and art out there and insulting people on something they wanted to share with their community of RA nerds is not at all nice. Appreciate the time and effort that went into everything.
Assholes who are part of a fandom with a "I've been here for longer than these people so I'm better" complex
Person: *well based headcanon that contrasts with what asshole thinks*
Asshole: oh my god the quality of this fandom is going downhill can you believe it?
Person: *posts fanfiction*
Asshole: the more fanfiction we get the worse quality it gets it's so annoying!
Asshole: I'm having a discussion! Here's my thoughts on this! Please answer!
Person: *answers with a contrasting opinion to them*
Asshole: oh my god people in this fandom are sooo rude these days let people have opinions!
Asshole: people need to respect what other people are doing and not spread hate!
Asshole: *immediately starts and spreads hate about a book series because it didn't have enough of what they consider important*
(The sad thing is that none of this was directly to me, but to various different people)
Small Fandoms
When you're part of a fandom for a small book series and the only person who ever starts shit starts complaining about "people being assholes in this fandom" and how "everyone used to accept everyone else's opinion!!!!" After bashing several different people with no provoking (including the author of the book series for the fandom) in their latest posts like ????
Trying to fix my broken heart with fanfiction like
I HAVE AN IDEA, BUT I NEED YOUR HELP.
I want to make an appreciation project for Dan and Phil for their amazing TATINOF tour they had recently finished. So here’s the idea:
For those who have seen the show or have seen it on YouTube Red, you know that they have a song at the end (?) of the show, which is called The Internet Is Here (listen to it here). This is the TATINOF song, so I wanted to do something with it. This is where you guys come in. I want to make a lyric kind of song with a lot of people. Basically, I want people to write parts of the lyrics on pieces of paper and take a photo with it (so that we get the whole thing when we’re done). You may have seen this during Markiplier’s 6 Million Sub Appreciation Video or even somewhere else.
If you’re interested in this idea, please message me, or send me and ask, and I can actually get everything set up to make it possible. Also, please spread this idea around so we can get enough people from the phandom to support this idea! If you’re still confused, please message me! I just want to make this to make an appreciation video for Dan and Phil and their hard work.
Thank you.
I LOVE THIS EVERYONE YES PLEASE LET’S DO THIS
I have accidentally kept a friend’s book for so long now I’m just hoping they forget I have it until I have the time to actually read it and give it back. I hate myself more everyday I’m so sorry friend
I was just thinking about that book yesterday actually I’m still waiting

Fantasy does NOT have to follow real world rules. Fantasy does NOT have to relate to some real world event, country, concept, law, or history. Fantasy does NOT have to mirror any particular time period or country, even if you’re basing your world on a real world one. There is NO SUCH THING as “historical accuracy” in fantasy as it relates to the real world.
THE ONLY THING Fantasy has to do to be believable is follow the established rules OF ITS OWN WORLD. Fantasy can literally be anything you imagine it to be.
If your fantasy world excludes people of color or those belonging to the LGBT+ community, if it’s grossly misogynistic and white cis-male centric, that’s because YOU made it that way. Stop blaming “historical accuracy” or “believability”. It’s not the genre; it’s YOU.
It’s their fantasy world and it operates under their rules and it is as historically accurate or believable as they want it to be, just because you don’t value those things doesn’t mean other people can’t in their fantasy.
You’ve managed to miss the point entirely.
Your point seems to be “Fantasy can be anything but if you don’t make your fantasy conform to my standards you’re a misogynist/racist/etc.” and you just spent 300 words getting there. What is your point if not justifying why you’re going to call people names for writing things you don’t like?
Fantasy can be anything, as long as I say it’s ok.
“THE ONLY THING Fantasy has to do to be believable is follow the established rules OF ITS OWN WORLD. Fantasy can be literally anything you imagine it to be.”
But you better have diversity and not mainly white cis men!!! It can be literally anything you want as long as you stick to my cast list and have nothing I interpret as misogyny!!!!!!!

I’m a medievalist by training and I endorse this post. Also go read your medieval history, because there were POC and queer folks and powerful women in medieval Europe in our real-world history. If you choose not to put them in your Euro-fantasy, it’s not history. It’s YOU.
historical accuracy has no place in fantasy.

HISTORICAL ACCURACY HAS NO PLACE IN FANTASY.

IT’S YA OWN DAMN FAULT FOR BEING HOMO&TRANSPHOBIC, RACIST, AND/OR SEXIST!!!!!
Like stated: fiction can be anything. So it can be a fictional world and be based off another place. Because that's what the writer saw envisioned in their story. If they're basing it off another place than they're gonna try to be historically accurate. History DOES have a place in quite a lot of fiction, despite what this post implies. Besides, claiming a book needs a certain amount of diversity in order to be good is honeslty ridiculous.

"Homeschoolers do their work in their pajamas"
It is true. I honestly didn't change out of my pajamas until 2:30 in the afternoon yesterday. The only reason I did was because I had to go somewhere
I wonder if I’ve ever been that random person someone saw and couldn’t forget
Yes the mail lady will never forget me she was honestly so shocked it was really funny
