i pulled 2nd pot for him in one of my random free pulls so i am manifesting this for you

i sent in two separate adoption applications today and i'm not sure how i'm supposed to function until i hear back, please advise-

NOTE FROM STAFF: the conversation related to site ratings & restrictions that was taking place in this thread has been moved to its own discussion thread which you can find here. if you wish to contribute to that conversation, please do so there. thank you!

re the child character discussion: at the end of the day i think that it mostly just comes down to differences in people's comfort and the different kind of environments that people look for in a site, and the reality is that there's no blanket answer that will work for everyone.

people in here have already been pretty honest about perfectly good-faith reasons why they prefer to write in settings where the players and/or characters are only adults, and i don't think an 18+ restriction means that everyone holds those assumptions that everyone who likes to write younger characters is a bad faith actor (ironically i think that assuming this is the only reason someone may implement this restriction is taking it in bad-faith). ultimately, a staff team will set rules based on their preferences, comfort, and what they personally are looking for in the community they are creating. it may seem silly to someone who acts in good faith and sees the value in having the opportunity to write younger characters, but i don't really think that anyone has the right to make blanket judgments of either camp. there are situations where either are appropriate, and i imagine there are settings where not allowing minors to participate or be written is more understandable than others, but at the end of the day none of us have the right to tell the people that formed a site what content they should or should not be comfortable moderating.

this ultimately is a further extension on some of the points that were made on pixel somewhat recently regarding the different things that people look for in an rp site, and i personally don't think that assigning morality is particularly fair. i think that the people in here that have had good experiences being able to write younger characters have gotten value out of those opportunities, and i hope you all continue to have good experiences. i also think that the people in here that prefer 18+ communities have the right to hold that boundary and seek those spaces as well.

(as a personal anecdote, i have been involved in a situation where there were legitimate concerns that ooc grooming was happening to a minor on a site i was staffing. while this isn't completely applicable to the conversation of "well if i as an adult wish to write a minor in perfectly acceptable scenarios, that should be okay", generally, age boundaries exist to protect both adults and minors, and it definitely can be far more serious than just 'remove the content')

outsanity in order for me to process this with the new site discount, you'll need to add a link to your site's ad in pixel perfect's directory! just let me know once that's been added and i'll get this set up o7

i'm a bit of a 'whenever the whimsy strikes' kind of guy, but if i were to pick my most consistent time of day it would be like the ass crack of dawn when i probably should be sleeping but my mind is too active.

HOWEVER, what trumps all of this is if there is an important or stressful project that i also have on my plate that i am putting off. then i will have infinite muse for posts that i will procrastinate on said important project with until it is physically not feasible for me to do so any longer.
