Re: general RPF fandom discussion
From: (Anonymous)Well, that was supposed to be stickhandled. Try Twitter? Fairly straightfoward to jump into circles of conversation there.
Re: general RPF fandom discussion
From: (Anonymous)Stickhandled is run by madelyn, which, no.
Re: general RPF fandom discussion
From: (Anonymous)Re: general RPF fandom discussion
From: (Anonymous)My problem with Twitter, like Tumblr, is I want focused discussion, not to have to follow dozens or hundreds of people and sort through all the noise and side conversations and things I don't care about. I tried SH but the crowd that formed there just never seemed to generate better discussion than here or my Twitter feed, and I actively dislike a lot of people.
DW comms are really a great format for discussion, and why I end up here so much.
Re: general RPF fandom discussion
From: (Anonymous)Is there a DW hockey comm? I have never really actively used DW, but I'd be happy to start on a DW hockey comm. I would have no problem having a journal-based community to visit with a name attached, there just hasn't been one that I was aware of that had any action.
Re: general RPF fandom discussion
From: (Anonymous)*shrug* I signed up on Stickhandled long before recent events and I hang out in the chatroom sometimes. It might technically be run by madelyn but she doesn't actually seem to have all that much of a presence there in the day to day stuff. Hawks were never my team, though, so maybe that makes a difference too, IDK.
Re: general RPF fandom discussion
From: (Anonymous)But like 80% of hockey fandom Twitter is locked, and with good reason. You have to know people over there to even be able to see the conversations.
Re: general RPF fandom discussion
From: (Anonymous)Re: general RPF fandom discussion
From: (Anonymous)I think the hard part of all this, is for a good chunk of fandom, it's just not worth the suffering to make themselves more accessible. Most of the people I know work really, really hard to have no way for anyone they don't already know to contact them, in fact.
Re: general RPF fandom discussion
From: (Anonymous)I absolutely hate Twitter, and not just for hockey fandom. I find it hard to follow, impossible to have conversations on, and just generally useless for anything that isn't a quip or a headline. It's like Tumblr levels of interaction, and I don't even get the cute dog vines. /grumpy-old-nonny
Re: general RPF fandom discussion
From: (Anonymous)The actual website is trash though. You have to use some kind of client to make it useable.
Re: general RPF fandom discussion
From: (Anonymous)Okay, as someone who likes twitter as a platform for following beat writers but hasn't ever quite *gotten it* in terms of how to find fandom... explain more?
