Fanlore:Featured Article Archives/2018: Week 14

chemicalromance was the first community on LiveJournal for My Chemical Romance fans. It was created by a fan a month and a half after the first album was released, but became more active after the second album came out.

By November 2016, the month and year of the last entry in the community, chemicalromance had 12,142 posts; 353,463 comments; and 6,257 members. Some posts may have been deleted in the intervening years since its founding, and users have likely unsubscribed or deleted their accounts over time.

chemicalromance was not an RPF community, and its members held a wide range of opinions regarding fanfic. Judging by how the community reacted to the existence of the incest slash comm geeheartmikey, its membership in 2004 did not overlap considerably with what later became Bandom.
