Hello everyone!
It's exciting to see so many people already signing up for this exchange! As we move into the weekend I expect to see several more signups coming in, which is fantastic -- I can't wait to see what you all are requesting and offering. That being said, as you sign up or edit your existing signup, I ask that you keep in mind the following rules:
It's exciting to see so many people already signing up for this exchange! As we move into the weekend I expect to see several more signups coming in, which is fantastic -- I can't wait to see what you all are requesting and offering. That being said, as you sign up or edit your existing signup, I ask that you keep in mind the following rules:
- Romantic and/or sexual relationships are indicated by a / sign between the characters' names. (If you request a / ship, you do not have to DNW "platonic or familial versions of the ship".)
- Platonic relationships (friendship, familial, etc.) are indicated by an & sign between the characters' names. (If you request an & ship, you do not have to DNW "romantic/sexual versions of the ship".)
- It is up to you to make your DNWs clear and specific.
- You may NOT use your DNWs to obliquely harass or shame other participants in the exchange. For example, if there are certain ships you do not want to see mentioned in your gift, you may DNW "any non-requested ships" or you may DNW, for example, "Riza/Winry, Roy/Ed, and Ed/Envy" or "romantic/sexual content between characters who are related, including the homunculi". You may NOT say something like "DNW gross pedo ships or any nasty incest ships", "DNW Royai, abuse is wrong y'all", or "DNW Mariza or any of that lesbian stuff".
It is also strongly encouraged to separate your DNWs from your prompts to make them as clear and specific as possible.
I had hoped this would go without being stated but I would also like to make it clear that while this exchange should not be considered a "safe space", this mod is not going to tolerate any sort of hatred or bigotry in signups or letters so please be thoughtful about how you word your prompts, DNWs, etc.
I have already reached out to some participants to clarify details in their signups and address possibly broken rules. If your signup runs afoul of any of the signup rules and I contact you about it, you must edit your signup accordingly before signups close at 11:59 PM UTC on August 19 or your signup may be deleted.
