Is it possible to open up assigning tags to the public (or to posters only, if there's some worry about misuse)? A lot of posts this week haven't been tagged yet.

[personal profile] thelongcon 2019-03-21 11:19 pm (UTC)(link)

If you're a member of the comm, you'll be able to add tags from the existing pool, I believe. Membership is open to all.

You should do something about people posting spoilers for recently released stuff in meme header images. I mean, I’m not sure how much of a spoiler that Captain Marvel picture on the femslash meme is but it does feel to me like it was maybe used for a header image a bit too soon.

Though, since I’m not much of a Marvel person, I could be wrong.

A picture of carol and maria isn't a spoiler, dude. Those images were part of the trailer which was around for months leading up to it.

at the risk of repetition, i don't know which mod post to use so the spiel goes in this post too

Hi! Smut pic prompt meme poster here, as we all know, and I'm needing to shoot a question y'all's way. Since I'm going to be out of pocket for a bit today/tomorrow, is it kosher if I posted the smut picture prompt meme a little earlier this evening?
thelongcon: (Default)

[personal profile] thelongcon 2019-03-30 01:10 am (UTC)(link)

I suppose so. You could also post it later.

shippy texting post when we have a sexting post supposed to go up tomorrow. if i or another poster winds up putting that up, i don't want to have to deal with 'but there's a shippy meme up' out of line.

Sorry I'm a day late. I'll ask them to put it under cut.


Unrelated but I'm also going to delete Surprisingly Gentle meme since there are options for that prompt in the Calming Caretaker.
Edit: Plus that journal didn't allow PMs so I banned them from posting in the future.

This (the size difference meme) https://bakerstreet.dreamwidth.org/5676719.html

Is basically a repeat of (the size Queens meme) : https://bakerstreet.dreamwidth.org/5676372.html#cutid1

It's true there are different prompts hut they shouldn't be right after each other in my opinion.

(Anonymous) 2019-04-15 04:36 am (UTC)(link)
you complained about this on wg and were told there they weren't the same. size queens (posted first) is about dicks and only dicks/genitals. size difference is about the whole enchilada, like dwarfs w/giants. they are two different memes entirely which just happen to share a word in common.

Texting meme posted out of schedule

(Anonymous) 2019-04-18 10:49 am (UTC)(link)
to clarify:

i know it's ostensibly a "picture prompt meme," but if we're deleting all texting memes no matter the gimmick that fall off-day, we need to be consist. re: the shipping text meme that got deleted earlier last week for good reason.

additionally, the meme knocks the two scheduled variations (gen and shipping picture prompts) out of rotation.

Impregnation kink meme here: https://bakerstreet.dreamwidth.org/5685900.html#cutid1 posted barely one and a half day after the Starting A Family meme (https://bakerstreet.dreamwidth.org/5683688.html) went up which has a impregnation option in its prompts.

I know every kink has its space on bakerstreet but can we please put a cap on the pregnancy-themed ones? They are niche enough that they barely ever get any traction and yet they keep being posted up to two times a week since months. Slowing it down to maybe one every two weeks might give people actually time to play in them before the next one goes up.

Thanks for reporting it. It doesn't matter if it's the same poster or not. That meme is not allowed this week.

I can't believe I'm having to ask this

(Anonymous) 2019-05-10 11:49 am (UTC)(link)
Can you please think about putting up a note regarding having no info in the top post or starter comment?

Let me start by saying I do not mind blank top comments, but... If you leave it blank and have no starter, no preferences (either in the post or in the journal), or any kind of statement about who owns said character journal... These are especially true if OTA is in the subject line...

Then you have no right to bitch about anything when it comes to who tags you, what character, you dislike cartoon/rl/game/whatever icons, what the prompt selection is, if the character is AU/OC/etc, or in the case of massive muse dumps, someone tagging multiple of said characters.

I have already chewed out the person that was mad at me for tagging them and deleted my comment, so I will leave it be if they will, but it's not the first time I have encountered this. (Nor the first time I have heard it complained about.)

I seriously can not believe I have to ask you guys about possibly having to say something about this, when it should be common sense. >_< People are not mind readers, do not expect them to know what you want or who you are if you do not want them to tag you.
1800: (janeausten)

[personal profile] 1800 2019-05-10 07:43 pm (UTC)(link)
As annoying as blank top levels can be, I think you're asking for a micromanagement that probably wouldn't work in reality. We do have to give players the right to not tag someone even if they've stated 'OTA'.

That said, if someone actually gets mad at you, then you can report that person to us.

Does every other meme have to be exclusively shipping-based?

I don't even mind all the ones that are inherently romantic or sexual by their nature, like the midfuck meme or unconventional couples or domesticity fluff, or the like. It's just... it feels like every time I come here in the mood for RP, half the memes with interesting premises are restricted to shippy content when they could just as easily be framed to support both romantic AND non-romantic content.

Why do we have, for example, a High Fantasy AU Shipping Meme, when we could just as easily have a High Fantasy AU meme where people have the option of playing out any kind of plot they want, shipping included?

And, perhaps more importantly, would the one count against the other as too similar for the two-week rule? Everything else is basically just me venting frustration, but this bit I think is something that warrants mod consideration.
1800: (janeausten)

[personal profile] 1800 2019-05-11 04:57 pm (UTC)(link)
I can't disagree. There are definitely memes that should just have shipping as one of the options instead of being solely shipping-based. The werewulf meme now on the first page is a good example.

I would allow a gen meme of a similar premise if it's not posted right after. A day later would be okay. Though it's not ideal to have it that way. I would be willing to make it a rule not to post memes that are "unnecessarily" made shipping-only.

It could also be possible to have 'no-shipping days'.

Right, I looked at that myself last night but I was in a hurry and was fooled by the first one being smut and the second one shipping. Had I considered longer then, I would have taken the second one down.

Please see this thread: https://bakerstreet.dreamwidth.org/5716864.html?thread=2502747008#cmt2502747008 specific to why it's being posted on the tuesday.

I can't say for sure that it's become a permanent thing, as of now but it certainly can be called a trial period.
