may our quest for daddys be fruitful

Rundown: [community profile] rpanons is an anonymous community for role-play related topics. This place serves as a forum for game discussions, canon discussions, RP solicitations (ATP, game ads, open memes), and advice. The occasional off topic comment is inevitable, but please keep heated social and political topics to their respective communities. Posting them here will only get them frozen. Subsequent threads made to bypass a freeze will then be deleted.

Rules:

Do not post pornographic or shocking images.
Do not share private entries, plurks, chat logs, etc.
Do not post personal information. This includes but is not limited to full names, addresses, phone numbers and so on.
Do not use this community as your social/political/hatespeech soapbox.
Do not be redundant. One page does not need three or more threads on one topic/theme. Your unfunny, forced memes also fall under this rule.
Do not treat this comm like your personal therapist. Threads about nonfictional suicide, self injury, rape, and abuse will be deleted. There are better resources out there for you.
Do not treat this comm like your personal Plurk or Twitter. Off-topic happens, but it should be open for discussion and not just a play-by-play of your life. No one cares.
Shut up about Tumblr. If it's not a discussion about Tumblr RP it will be deleted.

This goes back to a previous discussion where some RPers use introspection as a way to test out the waters for future plotting. Some players do this, some do not and think it's annoying. This is just a specific (to ship or just to crush) subset of that behaviour, so I'd argue that this isn't an isolated behaviour just for fears of shipping.

Maybe an easier solution would be for people who do not want to play out crush-realization threads to put that in their permissions posts in their character's journal. Presuming players read one another's permissions, it might give you (airt) a heads-up that that particular character isn't one that you should drop casual crush-based introspection for, because the other player's style probably isn't going to mesh with yours on that front.

Permissions posts were created as a half-way point between players who want to connect and plan things and those who really don't, for whatever reason. If crushing = ship-pushing red flags to you (ayrt who is leery of crush comments), please add some note to your permissions that is clear on a skim-through.

And if you like playing off the cuff and dropping crush introspection (airt), but notice other players have marked that as a boundary, save the crush comments for other characters.

we have lines in most permissions templates for mind-reading and fourth-walling because not everyone wants to deal with those on the fly. I don't see why we couldn't do the same for random crushes.
