Just A Heads Up · 12:03am Oct 3rd, 2016
Hello, everyone!
Since I've gained a good amount of fans and followers, I thought it might be a good idea to lay down some ground rules. In the past, I've had some people ask me things like if I wanted to roleplay or if they could pair their OCs with mine. I've come up with these ground rules so that the answers to such questions would be clear, concise, and easy to find. The rest I have come up with in order to cover my bases.
1. Roleplays are for close friends only.
2. I will not roleplay as Lyric or Halo. Other established OCs will be on a case-by-case basis.
3. If you would like to use my OCs in a story, or would like to collaborate on a story, then please ask! But understand that I may decline.
4. Do not ask/try to pair your OCs with mine. The answer will be "No," every time.
5. If you would like to get in touch with me, then feel free to leave a comment or say hello! However, do not PM me if I do not know you. Your PM will be ignored. (Exception: if I have asked you to do so for the purpose of editing/working on a story.)
6. If I have blocked you, do not try to contact me through other means. There is a reason I have blocked you, and you will be reported.
I will be posting these on my userpage shortly. I wanted to post them here first to ensure that they would be seen.
WELL THERE GOES MY LYRIC X SWOOTY BELL ROMANCE STORY! IT WAS ALREADY AT 70,000 WORDS TOO!
IT WAS GOING TO BE A STORY FOR THE AGES, BARD!
THE AGES!
Funny you lay that rule down as I was considering such a thing today...
Do people really ask this?
4237622
WHOOPS!
4237623
Well, just let me know what you're thinking, bestie!
And yes, yes they have. So, again, I just wanted to lay it out before someone asked or tried.
4237627
Well, you asked for permission before, so that's fine! Lyric is Jam's aunt. That's not going to change.
And honestly, you haven't broken any. This is a recent thing I've decided to put into place.
4237631
Gotcha, also, we're in the usual place!
4237644
Yes! Lyric will always be their aunt, no matter what. X3
4237666
XD Yes, the sleepover would be fun, but the sugar highs would not be a good thing.
4237681
Poor Lyric wouldn't get any sleep that night. Though I don't think she would really mind. 
She'd love to entertain those two.
4237697
She would love them.
Nor would Lyric.
Seems sound to me mate. I hope it brings around some good.
4237730
Thank you, my friend. And thank you for saying that it seems sound.
Really?
4237748
What do you mean? Just curious.
Okie-dokie-lokie.
Awww. I had some ideas. Eh. It's alright. If you don't want to, that's fine by me.
4237793
They're single for a reason. Sorry, Watercolor.
Yeah.
4237801
It's alright. No need to apologize.
4237792 I;m not sure what you mean by that.
4237843
Oh, gotcha.
For number 5, I've just heard of people who got spam messages from people they didn't know, asking them to join groups and things like that without even saying what the group is for. If I got something like that, I know I'd be suspicious and would be inclined to ignore it.
For number 6, I've unfortunately heard of people who have blocked others (on various sites), yet the person they have blocked still tries to get in touch with them.
So that's all those are about. Just letting people know in advance that should either of these things happen, this is how I will react.
4237852 I see.
Bard...do you have any idea how infamous FIM is for accidentally blocking people. I've done it to my friends, my friends have done it to me, chances are you will do it to someone and if they read this all that's gonna happen is you'll lose a friend.
4238682
Well, that is an understandable reason to contact me. But as I told another person, I have heard stories where a blocked person has repeatedly tried to contact the person that has blocked them through other means, causing a lot of stress. That is mainly what I hope to avoid.
4238946
That's understandable and perfectly reasonable. If they do contact you don't just report them, if you really meant to block them then tell them that, if they persist then you've every right to report them. But just saying you'll report them for attempting to contact you will just scare away those who truly believe it is a misunderstanding.
4239251
Well, the way I see it is that if there is a misunderstanding, a mutual friend can let me know, or they can try and let me know through another platform. But if I have legitimately blocked someone, that means I would not want any more contact with them.
4239309
And that's perfectly fair. I just wanted to make sure you knew that accidental blocks happen more commonly than one might think.
4239316
Right. I hadn't thought of that. But again, if there is a legitimate misunderstanding, then that is perfectly acceptable reason to reach out.
4239321
Alright
thanks for understanding bard
4239981
And thank you for understanding as well.
You're welcome.
4240449
Of course my friend.
Though just for future reference. Am I considered a close friend to you?
4241298
Absolutely, Final.
4241670
Thank you bard...truly thank you
4241752
You're very welcome, Final.
4241808
Your friendship is invaluable bard
4241900
As is yours, Final.
4241924
That really means a lot. :D
BTW. How are you this day?
4241931
And it means a lot to hear from you as well!
And I'm doing well. How are you?
4241935
It's people like you that give FIM its charm bard.
Good to hear, alright, my back has been in pain for the best few days.
