#mod blakely

Hi, everyone!

First off, I want to apologize for, once again, being away for so long. Early 20s is a hectic time in life, I suppose, and between college and moving out I’ve been very, very busy. I’m trying to figure out a way to gain easier access to this blog other than through my laptop so that I can check in and reply to questions and submissions quickly.

Secondly -- wow!! over 100 new followers? Hello! I promise this blog isn’t dead, just me, internally. I’m the only person that runs this blog so activity is a little sporadic.

I’ll be tending to new submissions and cleaning up the inbox and messenger. As a note -- if you were wanting to start up an RP with me, I will be reposting my information soon, so please check that first! Unless it’s a request to change or update a post, I don’t normally respond to messenger messages, since there’s always the risk of it being spam. It’s nothing personal, I promise.

Thank you all for you patience and understanding!

Sorry for yet another long absence, but college and work know no bounds to time consumption. All submissions have been reviewed and queued, all asks answers, and any posts that were requested to be removed have been! I’ll try to keep up more, aha.

Welcome everyone -- I’ll be going through my inbox and publishing submissions, editing / removing posts requested, and answering any questions, as well as checking my followers / following list.

Hey all! Admin here. I’m extremely sorry for disappearing for such a long length of time; there’s a multitude of reasons why, but I won’t put it all in open if you’re just wanting to know this blog is still alive and active. I’ll be going through submissions and answering any asks, and hopefully keep this blog up to date.

If anyone is wondering details, feel free to click the read more.

If you could please message me privately, I’ll let you know. I don’t want to post it publicly and risk people going and harassing them. Thanks!

I’ve gotten reports of an abusive RPer who submitted their information a while back. Though I have removed their post, if anyone wishes to know their kik so as to block them, message me privately on here. (Please DO NOT harass or spam them, as that will be means to terminate your RP post as well.)

Thanks

So, since I had a few questions and mentions about age limits and legal age with RP partners, I’ve added a new part to the submission page where one can provide any information they feel necessary to add, including limits on RP partners’ ages, their own age, etc. None of this information is mandatory for others to disclose, however, so please keep that in mind. The comfort and more importantly safety of others is first priority.

Though I’ve thought of this before, I’m not sure how well this would work – if the person is underaged, then it might be uncomfortable to them to give out their age, and legal age depends on the country. In the US it’s 18, but in the UK it’s 16, Japan it’s 14, so on and so forth… and that can get a little sticky when it comes to all of that, because it could be illegal here, but totally legal there. Plus, there’s no guarantee anyone submitting their information would be truthful; there’s plenty of times I lied about my age on the internet.

My recommendation is to just ask beforehand, or, if you submit your information, provide in limitations that you don’t RP with anyone under a certain age.

Sorry for the inconvenience; I’ll try and think up a way to possibly edit the submission info to help with the problem while staying inclusive to other countries.
