And sometimes I find something made in 2007 or 2012 and I love it and want to leave feedback! But that seems potentially awkward or possibly unwanted. So I don't. (Also I have to admit I use this is as an excuse as much as areason.)
So, a poll! If you create fan works, do you like getting feedback/comments on old stuff, and if so, how old?
What type of fanworks do you make most?
