Dissatisfaction! Failmod is fail!
Ugh, I don't even know why I go to ![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-community.gif)
fandomsecrets anymore. There's only an interesting secret once or twice a week, which is itself reason to stop going, but everything else about it is starting to piss me off.
They experiment with two different numbering methods, and then post a poll going "SHOULD WE USE THE NEW NUMBERING METHOD? YES/NO/I'M A TARD/COOKIES" Uh, there are two different numbering methods. This poll is confusing and not helpful at all. They should follow this example for the election. "WHO SHOULD BE THE PRESIDENT? YES/NO/TICKY BOX" Ticky box will be the new fucking president, it will be awesome.
Then![[livejournal.com profile]](https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/external/lj-userinfo.gif)
technophile apparently decides unilaterally what can be posted and what can't. This secret wasn't posted because "person thinks pairings are religion". ...so? Does that not make it a secret? Do people who employ hyperbole not get to have their secrets posted? What the hell is this? Do secrets get not posted now because technophile doesn't think he'd want to hang out with you?
Then there's the fact that secrets from small fandoms and secrets about fandoms in general get called "not fandom", and secrets that don't blatantly spell out "This is a secret because" on it often get railroaded into not-posted because they're "not secrets". If someone is confessing to something embarrassing, how is that less of a secret than ten goddamn thousand "I'd hit it!" secrets of someone like Alan Rickman or Cloud Strife? Millions of people think they're hot, shut up. Why are secrets aboutfandomsecrets secrets, but not secrets about thinspiration secrets?
For the record, I've only once submitted a secret, and yes, I passed the rigorous testing method of 1) Does it look like it belongs to a fandom? 2) Does it say "This is a secret because" on it?
