Lore is not fanfiction, fanfiction is not lore. Use #fanfiction
Friendly reminder that a while ago people were posting about how fanfiction writers were not supposed to be here. It isn't lore. The compromise was for the most part honored that fanfiction writers would use the tag #fanfiction to show it isn't lore.
Now the entire front page doesn't have a single use of it. Friendly reminder that people leave when lore gets overrun with people not following stuff like that and eventually down the road? When a group loses enough people to other tags? Bungie replaces that tag on the All Topics tab.
So this is just a simple ask: Fanfiction writers, could you please keep using the fanfiction tag? Thanks.

2 RepliesBungie could have solved this by adding a fan fiction sub forum. A place for the fan fiction writers to post up their stories without concern for other people getting bothered by it not being tagged correctly etc... I remember thinking that Bungie's reasoning for not giving fan-fic a proper home was illogical and downright wrong headed at the time. Their decision doesn't seem any better through the passage of time either.
