Sumission Situation
15 years ago
General
Every time I see how many submissions I have in my messages I cannot help but sigh. I had taken a very long break from FA, like a year or so, without really looking at any of my messages and just now and then nuking journals. At the moment I have almost 90k of submissions waiting for me to go through and I am very tempted to just nuke and start from scratch. I had done this before with DA when I took a break from there and just did not want to have to spend the time going through everything to get caught up.
I honestly do not want to do that with FA because there is a lot of great art waiting for me to see and I may not get the chance to view them is I simply nuke. While it is a daunting task I am planning to get through them even if it means always being well over a year behind the current art being submitted. Originally I was just faving and removing, but I think I will start leaving comments. It may be older art, but the artists still deserve to get comments on them as well I figure.

FA+

90 k is a lot though. Like, holy crap. If that were me, I'd maybe go through a few pages of the RECENT stuff and nuke the rest. No point stressing over it, there will always be plenty of art around. :D
Or if there are a few artists where you DEFINITELY want to see everything they've done in the past year, just go to their gallery pages directly.
