#ffxivfandompositivity
I asked and the community delivered. I have plenty to work with now, but please keep on sending! I went to bed shortly after my message last night, so I didn’t have the chance to make new images, but I will get started right away! I can even get a queue going! Thank you all so much ;___;
Guys? This is not a drill! I am out of positive messages sent to my inbox to post. If you don’t want to make your own image, just send your lovely words and I’ll make them as pretty as I can! Just please ask or submit nice things ^^
Hi everyone!
I’m so grateful for the amount of attention this idea has gotten so quickly. However, I haven’t had a lot of asks/submissions. There’s only one more that I’m working on in addition to the one I posted yesterday. So please, ask/submit the love!
Oh wow, I wasn’t expecting to get so many responses so quickly! Just a small reminder that my asks and submits should be open for positive words for me to post! (If I made a mistake and they aren’t, please let me know!)
Inspired by other fandom positivity blogs, I decided to make one for the FFXIV fandom on tumblr.
How does it work? It works by people submitting (or sending in an ask) positive things about the community members. I put the words on a nice background and post it as a pic. You can submit your own image or just text.
Submission guidelines:
1. BE AS SPECIFIC AS YOU CAN! Please don’t say something like: “This player “X” is awesome.” Instead, explain why they’re awesome. Did they help organize a run for a tricky story dungeon for you and a friend? Did they diffuse a tense linkshell discussion with impressive diplomacy?
2. You can shout out names of characters, free companies, linkshells, servers, etc.. However, any submissions containing personal information of players will be promptly deleted.
3. By default, I will not say who submitted the positive messages. However! If you want it known, let me know and I’ll sign it with your tumblr or character name. This option is only available for non-anonymous submissions.
4. Positive things only! For example: “Although some people don’t like Player “Y”, they bought me a minion for my birthday and are always kind to me.” will be rejected unless changed to something like: “Player ‘Y’ bought me a minion for my birthday and is always kind to me.”
5. If you have a preference for what image/theme is used with your submission, let me know when you submit it.
If more guidelines need to come into play, I’ll keep this post updated. If anyone wants to help with image making and/or the blog theme, let me know in an ask. Finally, a big thank you for the entire community for making this game a place where people can come to enjoy themselves in Eorzea!
