    Fraying at the edges?

    Just thinking aloud here. Maybe I've been unlucky, but I think I've seen a significant rise in stuff I'd rather not on here in the last few weeks. More than just a very occasional ad-spam comment. People totally ignoring group rules and openly celebrating it, despite that crowding out people doing their best. That kind of thing. Just me, or has anyone else felt this way recently too? I'd much

    Fics I reviewed in June 2024

    It's time (actually well past time, but...) for another summary of the stories I've reviewed in my weekly Ponyfic Roundup reviews over on my off-site blog, Louder Yay. This post covers everything I reviewed in the month of June. There were only three review blogs that month, as I had a week off reviewing near the start

    Catching up with courtesy notes

    For those who don't know, courtesy notes are what I call the little heads-up comments I post on a story when I've reviewed it, as a courtesy (you see?) to the author to let them know. I've got behind with those recently, so I'm going to make an effort to get back up to date. If your fic has been reviewed in the last couple of months, you can expect a note very soon!

    A small note on British school terminology

    You can't have a female headmaster, at least not in Britain you can't. I've seen it used that way a few times now, including in excellent stories, and it's always thrown me off for a second, so I'm wondering whether Americans use the term in a more gender-neutral way. But here, it's not like "chairman" which in the past was sometimes used even when the post was filled by a woman. In this

    And then there were none. Well, sort of

    Yesterday, my friend and fellow reviewer Ghost Mike published his last regular weekly Monday Musings blog. His reviews aren't going away entirely, but henceforth they'll be on an as-and-when basis. From here on in, as far as I can tell, there are now no regular weekly reviewers on Fimfiction

And then there were none. Well, sort of · 5:04pm August 6th

Yesterday, my friend and fellow reviewer Ghost Mike published his last regular weekly Monday Musings blog. His reviews aren't going away entirely, but henceforth they'll be on an as-and-when basis. From here on in, as far as I can tell, there are now no regular weekly reviewers on Fimfiction for the first time in... I don't know. A long time. PaulAsaran is fortnightly. Present Perfect is irregular. TCC56 is a recommender as opposed to a reviewer. I am still in the weekly reviews game (Ponyfic Roundup 501 goes up tomorrow!) but I host mine on an external blog, not here on Fimfiction. So yeah, in a way it's the end of an era, even if -- thankfully -- Mike will still be around and about.

You go, girl!

Aw, but don't forget review groups, like the one by Azure Drache! Their reviewers must review monthly at least or they get a thwock on the snout by Azure :P https://www.fimfiction.net/group/213901/my-little-reviews-feedback

Yep, I know about those and I wish them well. I will reserve judgment for a little while, though, as it's been very, very common for people doing that to end up overwhelmed, or to drift away because of school, work, etc. If they're still doing it regularly after six months then I'll be impressed. I hope they are.
