#animebonds

Please remember that everyone's opinion counts, so go ahead and leave a reply/answer so we know ^-^

Basically, the sender said that we are not bonding people, but are instead just making others feel left out. I'd just like to say that this isn't really true.

Our job on this blog isn't to create definitive fandoms for people to be in with one another, which is one of the reasons why we only do anime and not other things such as TV shows and movies. Our goal here is to only bring people together who enjoy the same anime so that they can perhaps follow each other and find blogs that suit their interest. The fandom lists are only created so that people can find others who enjoy similar anime when it might otherwise be difficult. The fandom lists do NOT mean that you are not within the fandom if you did not like the post. It's not like everyone who watches anime follows us in anyway, because if we said that the fandom lists did constitute a fandom on this site, then we'd be leaving a huge chunk of people out, namely those who are unaware of our project.

I apologize sincerely if you think that you feel left out, but I just wanted to say that your idea of what this blog is about isn't exactly right. If you have any suggestions we would be glad to take them, as long as you are courteous and kind. I, however, have no intention of responding to asks that are rude, no matter what your feelings are.

We will continue to make anime edits and fandom lists, but just remember if you missed an edit or didn't want to like or reblog it, that doesn't mean you aren't also a part of the fandom!

1. We do have an ask button, it's on the left side of the blog, in the form of an icon of a little message bubble, which links you to a part of the blog that shows the rules of requesting an anime, as well as an ask box down at the bottom if you scroll down after reading the rules. Also, typing in /ask after the web address will lead you to the ask box, just like on any other blog that has their ask open.

2. I wasn't saying ask normally as in sending in an ask instead of replying to a post, I was referring to the fact that you were rude in the way you were "requesting" an anime to be put on the list. Just as you are still, now. If you could just show proper respect like everyone else who has requested an anime does, then the process of adding it to the list will go much more pleasantly, for everyone.

If everyone could please request anime normally and show us proper courtesy, we will gladly add the animes to our list, and will get to them when we can. It's not as though we will delete or fail to add the anime you requested if you show impoliteness, but it is not fair to us if you fail to realize that we are doing this because we want to, not because we are obligated to appease you in any manner.

Also, for the record, I am asking this of you followers myself, so if you think I am being rude myself then do not blame the blog, or the other members, but just me. Thank you for taking the time to read this, and I hope you keep this in mind in the future! Everyone else so far, to my knowledge, has been just great, and has really supported us and this blog!

If you would like to blacklist this post, however, the tag that will be used will be "kyleb". The post is not related to anime at all, it's just to help support one of the members of this blog!

So recently we received a message saying that there was a problem with the way our blog theme showed up on their computer. Of course, we're in the middle of fixing those problems right now.
