#so the posting went wonky and it deleted my reply

[sugar-petals]

Could you like, explain what “warning signs” you’ve seen? It’s all well and good that you know, but maybe some other blogs are experiencing the same things but just don’t know them for what they are... is it related to that empty stats page you showed?

It’s a cluster of bugs that has been progressively getting worse. Either it’s tumblr imploding as always with their updates, the actual deactivation like one anon said happened to them with the same bugs showing, or my dumbass running too many applications on desktop. The stats page is counting visits as of now. But I see no activity. No post likes and reblogs, just an analytics board. It collected data for two days, now it’s frozen again. It tells me I’m earning a nonexistent currency 😷

Replies are gone from my posts, out of nowhere since yesterday. The network has a ‘deactivated’ batch next to it on my dash but it still works. Mlist has been wonky for longer, I stopped counting the things that went wrong with it, especially for android users even after i reduced the number of links in it. 

Tags don’t always direct to my posts here and on the rec account, my blog doesn’t show up in the search generally while my fics do. XKit isn’t running smoothly (e.g. postblock gives me an immediate empty screen). I don’t receive alerts for comments, the theme editor freezes often for 20 seconds when i do as much as type in a letter. The same happens in the mass editor when selecting a post. 

Tumblr savior collapses any tag search as soon as I scroll, only plain white post outlines appear. I can’t access the blog archive on safari but chrome works. More and more asks disappear, I can’t run grammarly on my posts since yesterday, edit appearances deletes any bio links even when I just want to change the banner or icon (so I have to use the theme editor). Something is definitely off since Monday in particular.

[1/5] Hhhhhh I’m sorry I was so silent >.< I had a big exam today and tbh I was lowkey (highkey) freaking out over it yesterday and the day before?? I didn’t even realize I was so nervous because of the exam until I finished it today. I hope it went alright but… yeah I don’t know. *throws all my attention at you* I’m back now, I hope you didn’t miss me too much ;;;; Also it makes me kinda sad to see people playing Ateez’ wins down like that? Just because they’re such a young group?

[2/5] They have a huge fanbase already, their views and sales are doing well – so I doubt kq bought the wins… Like I get the saltiness when you see a super young group have their first win instead of your faves, especially if your faves have been in the industry for far longer, I’m not gonna lie I feel it too sometimes. But those rookies still deserve their awards. They’ve worked their *sses off just like everyone else, and they will continue to do so I’m sure.

[3/5] I’m just happy for them, plus they’re one group less that has to go through the pressure of finally getting their first win when people think they’re already “overdue”. lol don’t we all have those fics that once seemed like a good idea until they kinda just.. weren’t anymore? I abandoned so many stories in my life, I’d feel bad listing them all^^” (tbh I can’t even remember all of them) And I had to google Arcana, but now that I know what it is I actually keep getting ads for that xD

[4/5] Is the game good? - “it’s only a man what will I lose” okay I had to laugh at that but it’s actually a really nice mindset? You don’t have to keep pursuing someone who isn’t interested… I guess you’d only end up getting hurt and wasting your time on waiting for something that will most likely never happen… (that’s something teenage me should’ve understood sooner lol…) Oh also since you said you might get into SF9 - I mean they are my ults sooo I could help you get into them if you want 👀

AAAAHHHHH omf! I really hope your exam went well! Did you get a break after the exam? I can imagine the stress but please remember that you did your best in the given circumstances ok? I was just a little worried about where you were? Don't worry about me being whiny aha. Just focus on the next exam if there's any and make sure you get your breaks and don't overwork yourself okay? Make sure you eat and drink enough water and get at least four hours of sleep if not six, aight? What was the exam about?

And yeah, it makes me a little smad about how people are sidelining and downplaying their achievements because they won even though they're new. Like I understand being disappointed but??? they worked just as hard for this win. Probably worked a little harder because they're new and they need to make sure they give their 900% so that people will notice them. I don't understand the whole idea of disregarding another group's hardwork when your group loses, ngl. Like just because you're sad doesn't mean you can shit on someone else. I really hope SF9 will get a win though because RPM is hella nice. Their music in general is nice aaahhh so I hope it'll pay off and they'll get what they deserve :/

Arcana aaahhh yes. It's actually good. I love the artwork for the game and the way they don't force any gender specific MC designs is hella heartening like there isn't a default design at all and just ;-;;;;; I appreciate that so much I'm not even kidding. Plus the characters are diverse in terms of identity??? And just bless that stuff. And I really really fuck with the way the story is written out?? You know the developers put their heart and soul into it. The only thing that's a little sad is that you require to have game coins to do select of the options and since you only get a limited number of coins at the beginning of the game + you need to buy the coins, it's a little difficult but there's mod versions for that even if they are like not recent updated versions aha.

Overdue, abandoned works are all I have most of time I'm not even kidding. Half of them I think I should delete bc I don't think I'll ever go back to them because I don't write like that anymore and also??? I don't stan those groups as much as I used to? Like I have BTS, ASTRO and GOT7 wips and I know I won't ever finish them??? But the plots for those are p well thought out and the idea of losing them makes me sad. I keep thinking I'll revamp them to a group I do stan now but idek if I'll do that ahaha.

I'd honestly love it if you helped me get into SF9 🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺🥺 I found their drama when it released and I was literally obsessed with Sole Mio and Mamma Mia when those came out. Idk why I never got into them honestly.

Also about my attitude,,,, it's actually come after such a long time?? Like teenager me would have benefited so much if I had this attitude back then because I know I took so many hits on my self esteem when my friends would start dating or have boys ask them out and I didn't??? Half of it now is bc I look at Irene and I'm like "there's no way she would want me to be sad about a boy not liking me" and hhhh I'm nothing if not willing to live up to the people I admire. This boy though,,,,, I think I'm more sad because I know he started talking to me because he was interested in me? And I like talking to him bc he never did try any moves (I know he was interested in me bc of a very interesting story) so I was genuinely 🥰🥺 about it. And he's nice to talk to so I'm just really sad about how he'll stop talking to me when he loses interest :/ It's just a little disappointing. It was nice to be friends with him.

Sorry about replying so late, my wifi was being wonky so the answer wouldn’t post??? and then I went out with a friend so I couldn’t reply until rn

HOW I RUN MY BLOG.

SPEED: It varies. If i was inspired and motivated, I’ll reply fast, however, i am but a human being my brain farts and even if i have the motivation, words refuse to come out naturally. I won’t use the ‘English is my second language’ excuse, but at times it is really the case. I can imagine the reply in my head but nope what is proper english structure? haha. But yes, my speed can go from SMASH THAT REPLY FAST to um...give me a week?

REPLIES: I can write short and length replies. However, I highly dislike and can’t write the too-much-literature-flowery-language replies. I cannot process what the character's action is amidst that fancy writing. However, I do not condemn people for writing it because wow that is a talent to be able to write that, believe me. I try to describe things, especially my muse’s feelings, even if there are not supposed to be visible to the other muse, to get my partner to know what they can work within the next reply, or expect at least. But yeah, can’t do fancy writing;; Also, I do not expect my partner to length their reply to match mine; if you can deliver something to work with in one paragraph that is cool by me. I expect the same because i dont like writing pointless things that do not add up to the thread or the character development. 

STARTERS: They are cool. I use them to get inspiration when I cannot focus on the main plotted threads. They are a good way to figure out what sort of new threads i want with that muse and mine, or their relationship. Starters whether one line or paragraph etc are cool because they are just set without planning. Cool stuff can happen when winging things. However, I do value plotting because we, myself and my partner would know what we are working with--no sudden surprises that could potentially ruin the thread. So yeah, i like wining and plotting. I take it seriously for plotting things because i wanna know what you are thinking so we can brainstorm; I cannot brainstorm on my own and you go ‘ok sounds good’ and thats it. please, join the idea one-two pass, alright? I don’t mind people suddenly writing a starter if they had an idea and wanted to just try it, though I highly find it disrespecting and annoying when you are not mutual and just write something to FORCE me to interact with you. Plus, using some tropes that are fan-made not canon wise, or just hyper-focus on one trait in a character which could, in the end, paint my muse in a really wrong way. Just, don’t do that, dudes. Really. There are a lot of things in a one muse, don’t butcher the muse’s personality and boil it down to ONE single trait. 

INBOX: Keep them coming. The only thing I have is if I ever sent you something, please, for the love of god, do not just delete it if you cant find an answer. I will be waiting for an answer. It is absolutely not hard to come to me and just “hey, so i cannot think of an answer so can i delete it? or you can try a different meme or send something else? or maybe try a different approach or let’s talk about this so i can think of something and get inspired by our brainstorming” kind of thing. I find it honestly, quite rude. If i send you something, please have the courage and courtesy to tell me it is not going to work for your muse so i can try something else. I will do the same of course and i always have. Be sure i will notify you if i cannot think of something for your ask, and most certainly inquire about a way to get around that block. 

SELECTIVITY: I used to be open for all back in the day but with how time constraint it is, i prefer to focus on the people i follow only. My inbox is always open for everyone but for plotting and having any relation to my muse you have to be a mutual. I like giving people chances because i’d want that too from people, however, if i cant see our muses click or i tried to approach by asks or IMs and you went cold i’d assume you are having me as part of the count and just soft block you. 

WISHLIST: oooh boy. I wrote one a couple..weeks? ago? idk. but these were just ideas. my wishlist are not bounded to what i had on that post. I by every day wish to try new things, new ideas, new threads, and certainly, relationships for my muses. I am absolutely open to other people’s ideas especially AUs and such. I’d like to write all my muses in different types of threads and such. I’d like to go deep in some lore especially, heavy and dark themes like t.ype0 since the lore is a bit wonky, imo. you think you know but then you figure out that you dont lol. i’d like to plot more maybe daring things?? if i gained the courage tri force haha;;

HONEST NOTE: notes? maybe. ok. if you follow me for a ship, be frank about it. because god only knows how many times this had happened and when it does not work for them, they quickly unfollow me (and at time block me lol) i respect people who are honest. if you wanna a ship, tell me. i will then discuss things with you and see if our muses and us, as muns can communicate well. I except the same amount of excitement to come from you as well. one hand cant clap. if im the only one of us who is sending stuff, writing things, or basically annoys you with ideas then dear, please, tell me you wanna this to be over, ok? i want to know that you care about the thing we built together, is it bad? and most of all, if you want to end anything, be polite about it. do not assume i can read mind and know you want to quit. no, i cant read minds, whoops. i am not asking that you talk to me 24/7 at least make me feel that we are not just bound by ‘dumblr rp’ and we are actually friends even if we stopped writing out muses. do not make me feel like i am a part that you could replace whenever you want or just part of the hype at that certain moment when we started the ship and now you just see me and my muse as extra luggage. Going by the inbox one too, please DO NOT drop a thread without telling me. i will not ever stop you just please tell me so i know not to wait and actually start thinking of something new for us. it is your right but hello ~ it is me waiting for your reply~ i at least require a heads-up no more~ i will sing this to you if you want. and another thing, i try not to get into drama here so if something happened and UNLESS it is really, really and extremely dangerous thing, do not get me in it. I will if i found the cause reasonable and not just simply witch-hunting. and oh, another thing. if you have a beef with me, TALK TO ME. ME AND NOT BEHIND MY BACK. i am tired of hearing by mistakes at time that X is talking about me, or Y does not like me. if you have a problem with me come talk to me. crying to someone about me is just ...dumb. if i made a mistake i would very much would like to apologize and understand the situation so i do not add to it without knowing. all i ask is...just come talk to me. a lot of the world’s problems will end if people talked and not ASSUME things. thanks. oh oh another thing, !!!!! important!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! graphics are not everything. smaller icons size are kind of ugly and especially the weird ass pds used make it hard to recognize the facial expression. please, do not let this aesthetic bandwagon take hold of you. just idk man do whatever you want but it would be nice to think of others who can hardly see a thing. be kind to each other.
