    I always have multiple tabs of stories I want to read that I just leave open for weeks.

    I was in the process of working on a oneshot, and while I was making a layout for something else, I noticed that I already have a oneshot with the same title I was going to give my WIP Facepalm

    So apparently, I have been on Mibba for so long/have written so many stories that I'm starting to forget stuff I've already posted lmfao

    Me: …that is not a fic i have time for..
    Me: *pins to new tab for later*
    This post from Tumblr accurately describes my story searching process. It's more like 100,000 words though. XD

    When Mibba breaks in any way, shape or form, I instantly go on a backing-up spree and save all of my stories to my laptop. Only when it breaks though. I'm screwed if it ever actually goes down and loses any of my stuff because my word docs are only usually as up-to-date as the last crash. Shifty

    How I navigate Mibba most days:
    ----- scroll through and read interesting blogs
    ----- scroll through and post / read interesting things on the forums
    ----- carry out mag staff duties
    ----- go through everything to see if anything's changed
    ----- close Mibba
    ----- open Mibba and check everything
    ----- repeat for several hours because Dead Mibba sucks

    - I don't recc stories that aren't finished. It just feels weird for me and it could serve as a reminder if the person leaves it unfinished.
    - I try not to write about super personal stuff in my blogs but sometimes it just happens anyway. Shifty
    - Sometimes I creep over on Role-playing threads because it makes me nostalgic about the days when I used to RP.

    I stalk certain Mibbians. Not off Mibba obviously, but there are a few people I read every story, everything they rec, every blog, every blog comment (on other people's blogs) and forum posts Coffee don't judge me I just find certain people so interesting lmfao

    Jeez, you guys are creeps. Shifty haha.

    ---

    -There's this one girl's writing that everyone loves (or used to love? I don't know if she's still active), but I never liked her work and I have no idea why. Like, I never read past 2 sentences on her stuff so I really have nothing to go off of for me to not like her writing. I don't know.

    -If I ever have a conversation with someone and then they stop replying even though the conversation wasn't over, I avoid them at all costs on here haha. That's weird.

    -I wonder if I'm interesting enough that someone stalks me on here.

    That's me, isn't it? XD Sorry I never answered your inbox, I checked it on my cell and forgot to answer when I got home.
    When the site's dead I just go to random peoples' pages and browse everything they've ever posted. Shifty

    Almost all the stories I read I found through My Mibba page. It's quite an adventure looking for stories in the Stories tab!

    *shamelessly advertises*
    I stalk every forum, even if I don't comment, it makes me feel important.
    I like when people mention me in conversation with others, like hey, I exist and you acknowledge that. ♥

    If my homepage is quiet, I use my admin tab to see what's going on elsewhere on the site. I don't think that's what I'm supposed to use it for but it shows me where all of the activity is at. Shifty

    @ castiel's vessel
    Thank god I'm not the only one! XD I just find it easier to use to find new stories that other people are recommending. It helps me with my stalking too. Shifty

    I usual go straight to the blogs unless I have some alerts and after that, I lurk on the Stories and Forums.

    I'm generally a silent reader when it comes to reading and commentinf stories but I do eventually make a recc blog for the stories i read. Shifty

    I'll read through the forums and I'll laugh silently to myself without joining in :P. Makes me feel super crazy.

    I also stalk colibri. I'm so glad she's back.

    My guilty pleasure is blogs. It's really the only thing I contribute to the site for the past year.
    But a bad habit I developed was that I easily become inactive from the site. I'm trying to break it though!
