as a indigenous transgender lesbian, your account and some of the things you consider "problematic" literally isn't even an issue to me, it seems people have been to overly sensitive with certain topics, so someone wears braids or someone else dresses in indigenous clothing ( and not in a disrespectful way ) they get put on a blacklist, it's honestly hilarious how sensitive everyone is these days.

. Everyone has their different comfort levels. Things you might not find triggering can be triggering to others and belittling how others might be feeling towards that because you do not is not okay.  There are plenty of faceclaims on that list that I personaly would not ban for example. I do want to remind again that the list is not made by any personal opinion, it is a list of sources of faceclaims who has done things that society deem probematic. You are allowed to form your own opinion and I respect yours.

Reposting since I got a few requests to look at the old doc, this is the new updated one: 

This is a updated version with a new document of our problematic faceclaim list. On this list you will find any kind of problematic behavior made by faceclaims. Please remember while going to this doc:

We update it regually, there might be a lot missing right now and if you feel we have missed anybody message us in a mature and kind manner.

This list is not made to shame any celebrity or to “cancel” anyone, it is simply a list so roleplayers can decide on their own who they want to ban or not and for roleplayers to keep updated.

We are only humans, so if you se a mistake etc let us know kindly.

If you have a comment on how we have decided to edit this form or an opinion on posting this form please do not bother sending anything in. We will not reply to any anons regarding the way we have chosen to edit and create this list.

hey! im not sure if you guys are the blog to ask, but it seemed appropriate considering the whole "rp safety thing". feel free to delete if you don't! but anyway, I am 26 and I just realized my new rp partner is only 18. is this okay? I don't want to do anything wrong, but i'm not sure what the rules/guidelines or even opinions are on rping with someone with that much of an age gap? (we haven't written smut or anything!) thank you!!

Hey , no worries.

You are considered a minor if you are under 18 so if the person was that I would say no, but if they are 18 I do not see why not. Just make sure that both of you are comfortable with what you are roleplaying. We all have our limits and if you feel that you are uncomfortable roleplaying smut with your rp partner then you should not do it. You should never do anything that makes you uncomfortable regardless. I am assuming you guys roleplay on tumblr.

when the olivia culpo thing first surfaced, there wasnt a source then either. i dont know where the person got this information from but everyone took it and ran with it.

Aaah okay thank you for the infortmation!

[roleplaysafetyarchive]

We are currently working on the list with celebrities who has asked not to be roleplayes and we see Olivia Culpo at a lot of the lists, but not a source is there anyone who has a source for her saying she do not want to be roleplayed? 

thank you in advance

hi i know you guys said to come to you with sources and proof of possible errors in that google doc and i happen to have some about mingyu... the allegations were falsified and escalated by an anti that purposely mistranslated the ops statements as well as some od the other comments made being proved to be false. the only thing that he ever actually did was make jokes with his friends while others were around, and unintentionally made them uncomfortable.. which he has owned up to and personally apologized to the person who was the first poster. the person who purposely mistranslated has deactivated their twt so i cannot pull the tweets from them vs the real translations, sadly.. however, pledis released three different statements and they are all linked below. i hope you understand and eventually remove him from the list as even the original poster has come forward to say that there was no harassment, just slight discomfort in which he's apologized for! thank you for your time!

Update: after looking at the links we have decided to remove Kim Mingyu from the list!

Why doesn’t anyone who runs this blog rp? You both seem really passionate about rp so that is surprising

We just haven't found a roleplays that has grabbed our attention yet, I do 1x1 with some friends at times, but it is rarely,

Is someone in the community creating resources for shitty humans?

We recieved a few anons regarding someone in the community gladly doing resources as long as they do not go under a specific line for them and we decided that instead of answering the anons we are just going to make this post and try to explain why we can not make a PSA about this.

Even if we think that you are right, that your concern and thoughts are valid we can not do anything about this more than to keep an eye out. Everyone has their own comfort zone and if that person think that making resources for certain face claims that can be offensive to others then that is on them. This is something that we believe sadly will not go away in the rpc, there is always going to be resources for certain faceclaims. Hopefully most of them posted have no clue what they done etc.

Everyone has their own comfort zone including resource makers. They decide on their own who they want to accept and who they don’t and yes when a  resource maker will allow to make something for a faceclaim that has done something horrid that is on them.  At the end of the day they are the ones making the rules for their blog, they are setting up their own boundries even if they can seem problematic,

My suggestion is that if you see a blog that post content you do not approve of is to block them , unfollow , do not reblog their content. Just simply do not support it and continue to educate people on the faceclaims that had done something offensive to make people understand why it is concerning to use a faceclaim like that and maybe even introduce others to the huge amount of other faceclaims there is. 

We are sorry that we can not do more, but it is not up to us to decide what other people want to create or not. We can absolutely dislike it and not agree with it, but for now we suggest to unfollow or block. We are keeping an eye out though in case this turns out bigger and we want to thank you for coming to us with your concern.

This must be so time consuming!!!! Where do you get the time to both run this blog and rp?? I’m exhausted just thinking about it :O

Oh it is! it was pretty calm for a while, but when the document was posted our inbox has been recieving things constantly. Neither me or my co mod is in a roleplay or do 1x1 atm so so far it is okay.

[roleplaysafetyarchive]

what happened to your doc? it's all broken/empty.

Oh I forgot to mention that! we decided to redo the whole thing since a lot of messages came in on the way we chose to edit it. So we are redoing it making it a little bit easier to navigate through

[roleplaysafetyarchive]

We appreciate the information being sent to us, I will take more look at it in the morning since it is quite late here and I about to go to bed.

[roleplaysafetyarchive]

We need to have a talk. We have recieved anon messages about certain people with links, but not sources enough for claims. If you want us to warn the community about someone or something it is very important that it is made the right way. We will not reply to any anons pointing fingers at any blogs unless we have discussed something with the anon off anon. Please read these before sending something in because sending us two messages with  a link to someone who has replied to something that is or may not be offensitve wont lead you anywhere. 

You can find this if you press “psa report” but we are placing them undera guideline link from now on, but we please ask you to follow these:

We do not answer any PSAs or anonymous asks about rpgs or players. This is because there is no reliabilty with this and can easily be sent in by anyone. If we do respond to an anon about a certain player/rpg we have spoken to that person off anon. However PSAs will be posted in their own post If we respond to asks it mostly is a minor issue.

We will never post anything without significant proof. Regardless of this we do take it very seriously that if you want to remain anonymous you will therefor it is very important that when you submit to us that you mention so. If you can’t bring us screenshots, links etc to show your claims are true we can not post your PSA. If there is not proof attatched to the reblogs we do, there is enough proof circling around in the rpc. If you want us to post the proof message us and we will get on it.

The PSA you send us can be about anything that you find a roleplay group has done wrong that can be harmful, it can also be about players who has shown toxic behavior and need to be warned about.

If we get a PSA sent in to us from more than one person the roleplay will be placed on a safety list, basically a list of roleplays with a history of bad repuations. We do not put  specific roleplayers on that list.

If you do not have any proof, but still want to share your story feel free to do so, but please state that it is a story and not a PSA when you do so. We want to be able to post those to however there will be no names whatsoever or roleplays mentioned since there is no proof

We will just copy and paste what you write so it is important that when you send us something that it is written as you are reaching out to other people.

Hi! thank you for this blog, I saw you wrote you did not mind recommending people that could help with alternetive faceclaims to probematic ones, i am here to ask for that haha thank you

Hello hello

Yes my personal favorites who I think are so amazing with face claims are @dear-indies and @megansmoosings. I abolutely recommend asking them

[roleplaysafetyarchive]

I dont agree with the anon, but I do think it was irresponsible for you to start the argument on another blog

I agree, I was 100% sure this was the same anon that has come to us and given us really unresonable arguments to start drama when we opened up the blog. I was wrong and I deleted that and the person decided to message me on my main instead of here.

I apologize for that, I made a mistake and I am going to try to change how I go about that. I usually do let my comod do with anons since my anixety tend to set off and take the best of me. That is why we are two here as well because we are good at different things. I am fully aware that I made a mistake reblogging that to my main.

To the anon in our inbox about a PSA about worldburn, do you have any more sources than just the link that you sent us? there is only text there and no proof to be shown which makes it hard for us to reblog.

[roleplaysafetyarchive]

If you have to explain it over and over again, then your point isn't coming off the way you intended it to and it means your execution wasn't correct or flawless - and actually in fact problematic. Good intentions doesn't mean that you aren't actually hurting people in the process. It's actually hurtful and triggering to compare small human mistakes and put them next to racists, rapists and actual homophobes. This should be a conversation, not you getting defensive.

I am not sure where you got "comparing" mixed into it. It is a list in alphabetic order stating problematic things celebrities has done. That is all it is. These problematic things that has been done regardless of how minor they are have hurt someone that is why they are on the list. I am not going to repeat myself to you again.
