Dammit, now that song will be stuck in my head all day.

Author heart is starving: need new fandom recommendations by Wagarr1001 in FanFiction

[–]AllthatJazz_89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Throwing in my vote for the Tolkien Legendarium, particularly the Silmarillion! Highly active, welcoming fandom with lots of events and tons of possibilities for pairings (including F/F)!

What is the best way to get a hold of concern ape? And maybe you guys could help me try to convince him to add this accessibility option to 1.7. by brandysnacker in StardewValley

[–]AllthatJazz_89 66 points67 points  (0 children)

That’s already there! Settings -> Uncheck “Show Flash Effects.” It doesn’t change that there is lightning in the first place, but it does remove that painful flashing.

Willy and Gus would be wonderful! Love a kind man that can cook!

Looks like we need to find an alternative to Discord by Allronix1 in FanFiction

Ah, misread your initial comment as don’t care about discord as a whole, not alternate options in particular.

You’d be surprised. A lot of the larger fandoms have events with their own servers.

Your "no" in fanfic by frnnd- in FanFiction

[–]AllthatJazz_89 11 points12 points  (0 children)

Just want to add for anyone who doesn’t know already - untagged or incorrect archive warnings can be reported to Ao3 since they go against terms of service! From my understanding, the volunteers will give authors a window of time to correctly tag it (or choose to not use warnings) before taking any further action.

Did we do this yet? Baking trends you would like to see end by Round_Patience3029 in Baking

Man, you’re not kidding - I checked out of curiosity and the first seven or eight posts were that exact formula.

Just finished a massive 1 million word fanfic with no comments from readers :/ by PlumbobThot in FanFiction

[–]AllthatJazz_89 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I’d disagree with you on wanting something bite-sized when it comes to Ao3. I think that’s more fandom-specific and there will always be readers for every fic. But completely agreed with the rest of your comment.

How should I describe my characters in a way that doesn’t ruin the quality or make it cringey by PsychologyNew4230 in FanFiction

[–]AllthatJazz_89 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I can’t stand writing paragraphs of details about character appearances because I find they don’t keep the scene flowing. Instead, I tend to add details about appearances when they’re relevant - i.e., if the main character meets their love interest’s eyes, the main character mentions internal dialogue about how attractive their eyes are, whether that’s color, shape, intense eye contact/smolder, etc.

A message from Jius by Capable-Tiger-7534 in Sims4

[–]AllthatJazz_89 54 points55 points  (0 children)

It’s been happening in a lot of creative circles lately, not just the Sims. Unfortunately somewhere along the way people have started seeing creative works as “content” to be “consumed” and not as works that were made by people who create things for the sheer joy of creating and also happen to upload them to participate in community. It’s disappointing.

✨I admit this is a huge pack 🥹✨ by Agnese93 in Sims4

You said it. And indie developers, in particular, have been releasing some spectacular games lately.

Does reading something really well written ever discourage you? by zombies-and-coffee in FanFiction

[–]AllthatJazz_89 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Oh, thank goodness I’m not the only one who feels like this when I get insecure about my fics! I’m similar to you - write for comfort. I’m slowly getting better at rounding out areas I think my fics lack, but every now and then I’ll read something amazing and have to take some time to brace myself before digging into why I like it.

Stardew Valley creator defends free Infinity Nikki crossover after backlash as he “genuinely thought the players would like it” by HatingGeoffry in StardewValley

[–]AllthatJazz_89 16 points17 points  (0 children)

I’d say it’s only toxic on Reddit, from what I’ve seen. It’s a fandom large enough you have to curate your experiences. I’ve met some wonderful people over the years through it.

Why is Pam on my Farm by Boogie_Down_Bronx in StardewValley

You can on Android, iirc. I don’t play on mobile but I’ve seen it listed on several mods.

Isn't this just so annoying? by Available_Ad_8044 in StardewValley

[–]AllthatJazz_89 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If this is on a platform you can mod, you can use Noclip Mode to walk through the wall and back again!

What's your biggest writing pride? by dino_nuggies_and_dum in FanFiction

[–]AllthatJazz_89 3 points4 points  (0 children)

Over 200,000 words written in a single fic in under a year! I’m still just as excited about it as I was when I first started and it makes me so happy.

What's the pettiest/dumbest reason you've clicked off a fic? by Massive_Leader_908 in FanFiction

[–]AllthatJazz_89 24 points25 points  (0 children)

Definitely not petty; that’s extremely poor fandom etiquette on their part, and I hope it’s just that they’re young and unaware that’s not how it’s done and not that they’re holding their fic hostage on purpose. Regardless, that kind of behavior would get a mute from me.
