I suspect these are not as famous as you think. Also, the formatting of your post is not as reader-friendly as it could be.
- The above are mostly just guidelines. Above else, be chill.
Be excellent to each other.
Wild assertion that these are semi-famous with only just over 4k views on the original post. And on DA in 2021 no less. I've seen no name YouTubers with higher subscriber counts.
- Always err on the side of scepticism when reading things online, especially when those things assert themselves as truth.
That's already in number three.
Thou shalt thank or otherwise acknowledge thine responders whomst volunteer their time to provide helpful comments and posts.
Lost me at 2. Like jeez if god was this verbose moses would've never been able to carry those slabs down mount sinai.
Honestly I feel a good rule would be proper moderation. Like have you searched youtube for that khelif thing? Like seriously wtf. Fediverse ftw, at least I can curse like a sailor here.
Lost me at 4. Me deleting my comment doesn't mean I was humbled, I might still be a dick and harbor the same horrific beliefs privately or at another occasion
Something something rule 34
- Thou shalt not lay with OPs mother.
Good news everyone
One's true character shines when no other light is present. Who you are when you believe yourself anonymous, is the real version of yourself. This is the version without the mask that peer pressure forces upon you. The mask of accountability to others, if you were to act like your true self, is a powerful motivator to alter your behavior. The person you are without the mask of social accountability, is the truest version of yourself.
- With authorship comes authority. They get the final say who made something, except where this rule violates or complicates itself. The context in this statement does not matter.
I think J K Rowling is living proof that this shouldn't be codified, as authorship and fanship should align at least on some axis
Fanservice can be good, but it's up to the author if they want to go through with it, even if that also means it's up to the fans if they want to indulge. In the same line of thinking, we have a fine line between "canon" and "headcanon".
The rule also applies to associations. Suppose people in it begin to disassociate from other members. They shouldn't consider it "wrongful" on the part of the leader and do the whole "oh noes I was removed" routine. It's an extension of the people who formed it, and imagine (excluding hostility) you being the one in charge and having your claims to your niche crushed. To be an outsider is simply to lack the status of an insider.
