odd and weird question but not actively attempting to be insensitive:
whats up with the diversity guidelines? ive never seen it in a server before and im just confused as to the reasoning. like is it just an issue with media overall or is it more like an mfrp specific issue to you? sorry if this is too personal of a question but im not opposed just. hming it.
hi! pls don't mind my mobile answer lol — i must admit, the wording of this confuses me a little bit so if i didn't cover what you meant, please lmk!! i can also like totally talk to you discreetly off anon, but if you aren't comfy with it i get it too!
if you're talking about the diversity rules being present in general : the rpc, on tumblr at least with those who use faceclaims in multifandom rps, often have diversity rules present to ensure diversity amongst the cast as the community on tumblr hasn't always been the best regarding diversity. this is something i was looking to implement given our server using irl faceclaims, as from what i've seen its the standard for servers that use faceclaims.
if you mean, are the diversity rules present because of an issue i have or something : no! i put them here as i know its a standard rule that rps using irl faceclaims have again.
and if you mean, the rules specifically that are like "regarding this type of hc" — that's more to cover the questions i have seen asked in the past! i was trying to cover the general basis of what i thought people would want to know but i might've made it look funky or went information overload by accident — the bulk of it is genuinely just, if your first muse is white please make sure your next muse is a poc.
(and, please, if something about the diversity rules sounds weird do lmk!! it's been a while since i've adminned & i 1.) don't use faceclaims and 2.) don't usually implement diversity rules into my illustrated rps bc tbh most muses in there are often not white in their canon so it's never been a problem i have had, so if something seems funky, it's definitely not my intention! i just don't know how to word anything at all. i encourage feedback on things i've laid out.)
