personalapocalypseI'm doing this for Star Wars: The Old Republic specifically this month, because why not. I may not finish it within the month, but I might keep going if I don't.
The first question is short so I will use the cut tag to list the rest of the questions. They're on my journal elsewhere, but I don't want to have to search for them every day.

1.How did you get into this fandom?
I first played the game in 2013; I only really knew about it because I remembered some comic talking about Bioware planning to create a Star Wars MMO, and I'd enjoyed a lot of their other games, so I decided to look into it. I didn't get involved in the fandom that much back then, just enjoyed the game with my boyfriend and played through some of the story. After my computer at the time auto-updated itself to Windows 10, though, it wouldn't run the game worth beans, so I just stopped playing it for several years.
I believe I picked it up again in 2017? Maybe 2018. I was definitely back in college again, and my boyfriend mentioned he wanted to play an MMO again and suggested it. (We'd been playing a few other games before then. Neverwinter, for one, which I remember enjoying.) He didn't stick with it; I eventually stumbled into a guild, then started RPing in-game and on Discord, and eventually (probably 2019 or so) started looking for fanworks about it on various sites, mainly tumblr.
That's about it. Easy one for today.
Full list of questions (I've omitted one because it's February and because I don't know how to answer it anyway.)
1.How did you get into this fandom?
2.If you, AS YOURSELF, were to be written in as a character how would you be integrated into the storyline?
3.What is your current OTP and why?
4.What is one pairing you hate and why?
5.Write a review of the most recent episode you’ve seen/chapter you’ve read/particular scene.
6.Explain one use of color symbolism.
7.Give backstory for a minor character.
8.What is one thing that bothers you about your fandom?
9.What is one thing you love about your fandom?
10. Recommend a favorite fan-created piece (fic, fanvid, art, etc) of yours within the fandom, with an adequate explanation as to why people should read it.
11.Which character could you most do without and why?
12.How do you think your show/movie/book reflects you as a person and why?
13.How do you feel about the representation of women in your fandom?
14. How do you feel about the representation of LGBTQ people in your fandom?
15. How do you feel about the representation of people of color in your fandom?
16. What part of your the plot do you wish had been different? What kind of changes do you see that causing in the larger scheme of things?
17. What do you think has been your show/movie/book’s best moment and why?
18. What do you think has been your show/movie/book’s worst moment and why?
19. What is a connection between two characters that you would like to be explored?
20. What is an interpretation concerning your fandom that you heavily disagree with?
21. How do you think your show/book/movie depicts sex? Is it realistic? Is it problematic?
22. How involved are you with your fandom? Is it just on the internet or do you have friends in real life who are also apart of it?
23. How does your show/book/movie depict marriage?
24. How is violence depicted in your show/book/movie and how do you feel about it?
25. How is addiction depicted?
26. What character do you think you act most like in real life?
27. How do you think the people in your fandom are seen or represented by the creators of the text?
28. What is another show/book/movie you can see a character from your fandom appearing in and how would they be integrated into the storyline?
29. Write one meta you’ve always wanted to write that didn’t fit these categories.
(Omitted: Explore what a character would be like as the opposite gender. I suck at that question.)
The first question is short so I will use the cut tag to list the rest of the questions. They're on my journal elsewhere, but I don't want to have to search for them every day.
