About » Fanlisting History

I got really bored one day, the 16th of May 2010 to be exact, and I decided to check out the fanlistings that people had been posting to their pages. Whilst I was browsing, I stumbled upon the evolution listing and decided to join since I was studying evolution in anthropology and found the subject to be quite fascinating. After I joined, I found the forensic anthropology listing and wanted to join that, too. However, the rules said that I needed to post a code on my site; that's when I decided to dedicate a small page of fanlisting codes on my resource site, Heartless Adrenaline.

Needless to say, this little time-filler really kept me going. I joined about 300 listings, all of which were on that "small" webpage, before I decided to start a separate website, a collective, to display them on. So then I created a subdomain off of Heartless in July, where all of my joined listings were hosted. However, about two weeks later, I decided to buy a separate domain for my collective for the following reasons:

1. It would be easier and less troublesome to own fanlistings.
   
2. I could give open up space and traffic for Heartless.
   
3. I knew that I was probably going to get a domain anyways, so why not do the painful moving and link-changing when I'm only listed at 300 listings, rather than in the future, when I have more schoolwork and more fanlistings to move?

So, I bought Illusion-ism.net from NameCheap on the 2nd of August, as a birthday present to myself. I worked on it a little and it opened on the 4th of August 2010. I'm still a bit of a n00b to fanlistings but I haven't gotten bored yet ;).

About » Name History

OK, so I was a little stupid when I decided on a name for the listing. Instead of thinking of something regarding my fandom, I decided to go with something that expressed my rapid daydreaming. I thought of a ton of names, many unavailable. Eventually, after thinking of romantic-ism, I got to illusion-ism. It hinted to the state that visionaries are put through with their daydreams, and the hyphen is to indicate that it's not the type of art but rather a different word.
So now, my daydreaming isn't nearly as rapid and I've kinda grown to detest the name but... whatever. Hopefully I'll grow back onto it one day.

I like a lot of stuff & I'm sure that you can find some of it around this website. But I'm a picky bitch.
I love animals. I have a red tabby cat named Picklez. I used to have a lot more pets but they died.
And there's a lot more to me & it's spread throughout the internet.

If you'd like to know anything else, just ask. I don't bite hard.
