Randomly jumping in but I miss when the site was so active and always busy. Maybe there's some way everyone can figure out how to get the community back up again. I know people are still reading but a lot of people are no longer reviewing

I agree with everything in here so much. It frustrates me now seeing everyone beginning to leave the site when it just started to become something very great. Why people have begun posting things on Wattpad and Tumblr greatly confuses me. On Wattpad and Tumblr, it's extremely challenging to get reads, votes/notes as to this site that is dedicated solely to 5sos fanfiction and filled with readers who come to the site to read 5sos fanfiction. Yes Wattpad and Tumblr are full of talented writers that can get around a thousand notes/reads on a story, but that is not easy to accomplish without a decent follower amount.
On the site, I always felt so blessed seeing everyone growing. New friendships were growing and more and more people were being noticed for their amazing writing. But lately it just seems so dull on the site that it frustrates me. With nobody reviewing, just reading and favoriting and sometimes only rating, I only grow frustrated as a writer. I don't know if people like the story anymore. I don't know if people want to see something happen. I don't know if something was triggering for someone and I should put warnings on the chapter notes. I don't know if people like the direction of the story. I don't know if I made a factual mistake I didn't catch or didn't look into enough. I had friendships form over reviews and want to build relationships with people who aren't leaving reviews.
I've been sitting here for a while thinking about the idea. Well, also kinda half crying because I got home from a visitation of my friend's brother. I know I always try to encourage reviews in my author notes. I always say 'Any thoughts or comments? Review?' meaning if they have any thoughts or comments about what happened I want them to leave me a review. I don't say the thing of '____ Reviews for next chapter' because I find that rude and sort of bullying because you are forcing people to do something they may not have the time to do for the next chapter. I actually refuse to read those types of stories until they are completely finished because I don't want to sit for a couple months waiting for ten reviews on the last chapter because the author only got one when they posted it. But I think at first admins, authors, mods etc should be encouraging readers to review. Not like 'review or blah blah blah' type thing. Just highly encouraging it makes the authors know how the readers feel and what direction the author should take. If that doesn't improve it, we could maybe try advertising the site even more. Maybe making the site more known on Tumblr and possibly trying to get the awards tumblrs for the site (Underground 5sos, CALM, Serious, Out of the Box) willing to help. What I mean by asking those award groups and the site to start doing things to promote stories more on the site. Most of the awards have fics of the month author spotlight etc but don't do it because they are either too busy, forget or don't think anyone reads them. I think that could draw more attention to the site, saying 'Hey we have good fics over here. You should totally join because all the fics on this site are really awesome and completely free to read whenever you'd like'. I think by doing that, authors could get more feedback on stories and their writing and we could maybe promote the site a little bit more.
Did any of that make sense? I'm sorry, I'm all over the place with my emotions right now and that probably made no sense.

I can't remember if I've requested you before, if I have I'm sorry Username (on 5SOSFF): swimswimswim27 Image Size: 650 x 200 Title/Main Text: Royal Pain Subtext/Quote: n/a Images/People to be used: I'm so bad at finding pictures but Katie Fogarty and Luke Hemmings Color Preference/Mood: Okay well it's different than I've ever written before. It's kinda punk themed because he is going to be a tattoo artist but it isn't focused all about that. I'm gonna say bright fun colors but slightly darker. I'm really open with this type of stuff so I don't mind really just bright Link to Story: Not up yet Anything Else (e.g. animation, other images to be used): If that color scheme did not make sense or if you can't find pictures of Katie let me know If you like and use this then please credit me as seeingred ITS GOREGOUS OH MY GOD THANK YOU

Is the site giving anyone else trouble? It keeps telling me that no recent stories in the past seven days, deleted chapters and reviews, and I was a featured story and now that's gone. I don't know it's really frustrating because I lost all the reviews and chapters and am going to have to re upload the chapters and respond to reviews again.

Thank you It would be nice to be know in case you aren't following like me obviously. I wish I would've known I was nominated before voting ended and that they would've posted the nominees before today, twelve days after voting ended. Oh well, it is what it is though. Thank you

Hii okay so I was thinking about the awards people do on the site (Out of the Box, underground5sos, etc). but I'm confused as to why nominees aren't notified? I feel like if you are nominated and not on the boards you would have no way of knowing. So why can't these people contact you that you've been nominated? They obviously have your username if you've been nominated and it isn't that hard to click the contact button or leave a review on the nominated story..
Feel like this shouldn't go under this thread oops sorry but this is where they talk about awards
Also does anyone have the link to the Serious Winter Awards? I've seen a few people with the badges for nominee so far but can't find anything about it.
Sorry this is probably under the wrong thread
