I Can Breathe Again!

[rodo]

Seriously, I was really overwhelmed by all the reactions I got on my post on being a fan in two different languages. I don't think I ever had even a fourth of the comments on any other post and it's been linked a lot. As I said to lian: My brain just isn't equipped for dealing with a metafandom-sized amount of comments. I need a break. *sigh* I'm also fairly sure I missed some comments because my inbox couldn't deal with all of them.

I haven't read your meta yet but I definitely will. After work. Why does real life always interfere with my online life? *lol*

At least you have a RL, I miss mine. *sigh*

[xavie]

And I didn't even find the time to comment! Nor read all the comments!
Maybe the number of reactions is a sign that there is potential for German meta after all. It might be you started something there *g*

*still can't go reading it now because of starvation in the tummy*

Actually, the ones who disagreed with me the most were Germans. And a lot of fen from other countries felt the same as I did.

But it definitely seems to be a topic people want to talk about.

Getting many comments on meta posts is extremely overwhelming, if you're the type to want to respond to each and every one in an intelligent manner. And it always surprises me just how few it actually takes to overwhelm me :o)

The [info]fanlore community is finally open.
Uhm, I thought we didn't like fanlore?

[blnchflr]

No, wait, I'm confusing it with that other fannish wiki, which we don't like.

[rodo]

Yes, we don't like that other wiki. Fanlore isn't great yet either, but it's still in beta and needs more content, citations and so on. And it's not full of bot-created stubs.
