@tokitocestn1fan I knew it was over when we started seeing racists use YN to shade young black boys and not use it for its God intended use, self insert fanfics

@tokitocestn1fan @Vvlvl_ I agree but sometimes its so difficult to know and understand what ppl are talking abt, e.g. Ive been on tmblr and ao3, but never much on twt, and so many words I didnt get "pro/antsihip", oomf, etc etc etc, its quite a lot.also the difference in tone between platforms is crazy

@tokitocestn1fan Yeah, I swear I the 2010s we all learned about not posting pictures or videos with celebrities the same day because it's dangerous and a lot of people would appear at the place to stalked them or to mess with the place. Now everyone post everything on tiktok in seconds

@tokitocestn1fan @esse_m_writes Yup. Everyone was a newbie once. Be welcoming to newcomers as long as they're respectful (which is more than I can say for lots of people who have been in fandom for decades tbh)

@tokitocestn1fan Oh FACTS. like we are in this safe space where it is mostly respectful and everyone is in their own lane, and then boom alian invaders that’s not trying at all to assimilate and bring their own toxicity into this safe space, acting like they own it. Like no thank you.

@tokitocestn1fan like they don’t realize everybody ships everybody together regardless if it’s lgbtq+ or not it’s always so weird to see homophobic ppl in fandoms like what are you doing here

@tokitocestn1fan Really should've posted fandom "rules" all over the place in 2020 cause a lot of them desperately needed those kinds of charts and shit

@tokitocestn1fan Especially the young ones immediately getting access to everything instead of slowly having to find their way to the good websites and learning the proper etiquette along the way. That's how it used to be when I first started reading fanfics.

@tokitocestn1fan This with any fandom Since banana ball got huge, there’s so many people in chat demanding a player for themselves or expecting this or that, and I’m sitting here like “I’m so sorry yall mods have to deal with this, p sure it’s new people” cuz I’ve never seen chat that bad before

@tokitocestn1fan Ive always been in the darker side of the internet, but it was only recently that I started getting involved with fandoms, so I didnt know many things about fandom etiquette, and I learned just by SEEING how people behaved. Its not that difficult but these people like to complain

@tokitocestn1fan Fandom purity is going way too far. If a ship has any levels of toxicity then it’s bad and you’re bad for liking it.

@tokitocestn1fan Deadass. The amount of people I see get into fanfic (they jumped straight into ao3) and: A.) become shocked and repulsed by all the tags B.) whine about people not writing for their fav C.) criticize the fic in comments D.) all of the above

@tokitocestn1fan putting pins with your interests on bags has been a thing forever and then normies came in, called it the "ita bag trend" and started making up rules on how to style it and why ppl who have been doing it for decades are doing it wrong 😭 like holy shit shut up
