Is pming a character ooc about something that happened ic as a way to resolve it considered crossing the ic and ooc line?

Depends on how you do it. "Hey, I'm not enjoying this part of our sl, can we brainstorm a way to move it in a new direction that works for us both?" is normal and not blurry. "Dnw this plot, I'm erasing it now" is rude and godmodding.

The issue is that something a character said ic to a friend in a custom was spread around ooc somehow through characters tbeu don't know and this character heard about it ooc and decided to contact the original character who said it (is this getting confusing?) via PM to tell them they found out ooc and it caused a big mess. It feels weird and accusatory. Like who even are you?

That's not normal.

(Anonymous) 2023-07-28 04:11 am (UTC)(link)
I think I'm following and that person never should have contacted them ooc like that. I would go to the mods, I'm here to write, not for your ooc bullshit.

I personally wouldn't do any of that, but it sounds like people involved got caught talking shit and now they don't want to face any consequences. I'd stay out of it entirely.

Why not just ghost or flake? Why even bring it up ooc?

(Anonymous) 2023-07-28 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
Weirdos gon' weird.

(Anonymous) 2023-07-28 04:25 am (UTC)(link)
🤷 Like I said, I wouldn't do it. Maybe that person feels like they're being bullied or targeted, maybe they decided to stand up for themselves, maybe there's other context you don't know about, or maybe they're just weird. Either way, I'd stay out of it.

This is what I was thinking. It doesn’t involve them directly but they’re sticking their nose in it, could make things so much worse.

(Anonymous) 2023-07-28 03:43 am (UTC)(link)
No, this is normal in every other server.

I would comment their OOC instead because people don't always see PMs, however I would really think about this first because I think a lot of situations just become awkward when you take them OOC.

(Anonymous) 2023-07-28 03:46 am (UTC)(link)
I'd definitely comment over PM, too.

(Anonymous) 2023-07-28 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
I never bring up anything ooc but I trust no bitch.

(Anonymous) 2023-07-28 03:44 am (UTC)(link)
Depends on how much you communicated ooc previously and how they approach it, I think. I wouldn't mind agreeing on sketching out a rough plan towards getting two characters to talk again, for example. But when someone only speaks up because they fucked a good thing up ic just to be messy and then don't like the actual consequences of their actions? Deal with it, baby.

That's a really specific example that doesn't really sound like what OP is talking about, is there something on your chest anon?

(Anonymous) 2023-07-28 03:57 am (UTC)(link)
Excuse my projecting, it's been a week.

(Anonymous) 2023-07-28 03:52 am (UTC)(link)
If you're respectful and chill then I think it's fine, but don't expect them to be respectful or chill in response. People on this server can be fucking crazy.

(Anonymous) 2023-07-28 04:05 am (UTC)(link)
It's not me, it happened to my friend and she wants to go to the mods and/or leave the community and seems really weirded out by it all. I'm trying to let her know if it's a normal thing and to relax or if some line crossing did happen. It's never happened to me and I would never do that.

(Anonymous) 2023-07-28 04:14 am (UTC)(link)
Not OP but the scenario you describe is not normal, no, especially since it was a different person who PMed them about it and not the person the conversation happened with in the first place (did I understand it right?).

(Anonymous) 2023-07-28 04:19 am (UTC)(link)
Yeah, exactly. They just heard about it ooc and decided to PM her ooc even though what was originally said was ic. Apparently there was some accusations and long winded explanation why she would no longer be interacting with her in the comm.

(Anonymous) 2023-07-28 04:23 am (UTC)(link)
No, this is inappropriate behavior and your friend should go to the mod.

(Anonymous) 2023-07-28 04:17 am (UTC)(link)
It sounds like from what you said multiple people are being blurry, and if I were her I would absolutely go to the mods. Is she the one being accused of being blurry?

(Anonymous) 2023-07-28 04:22 am (UTC)(link)
I think she's just being accused of saying whatever ic, she didn't tell anyone ooc and that's why she's so upset about the pms. It's so weird. I am going to tell her to report this to the mods.
