Look before you leap

Ooh. Well, I've been in a bandwagon kinda mood these days, so when news of a yaoi FMA community sprang up in the NORMAL FMA community, I went and hopped on. This was last night, okay? I was crazy last night. And also I didn't stop to think about posting problems.

Specifically, whatever I pictures put up next, I'm pretty sure it's going to have straight AND gay stuff, and I don't want to separate them. I want all my weird fandom couples to be together in a HAPPY ANARCHY---or to be more honest, I like posting things in bulk because if something stinks, I have other stuff around it to make it better. I can please more people at once. And EdTri kind of evades categorization, so which community would I put THAT in? Christ.

So now I'm just not sure what to do. I don't know the etiquette here. Would it be punishing my ADORING PUBLIC to just put a link to the appropriate entry in each community and make them sort through for the goodies themselves? Should I just separate them, even though the only thing I have to put in the het community is EdTri and MAN I'm not sure they'd like that? Should I just put one link in the main FMA community and be some kind of elitist exclusive person who only sells the most wonderful toys at Comiket and not on the web...rrf.

Mmmmf. I'm kind of zombie again today.

SAY "FUCK YOU BITCH" and post it. Who the hell cares? The mod didn't make a post about keeping your yaoi/yuri/het pairings out, so DON'T LISTEN TO IT. EVIL.

What she said. The mod hasn't said to stop pairing-posting, so fuck that. Just post the way you always have. You put everything behind links with descriptions in any case. Happy anarchy is good.

Neither the het or yaoi comms strike me as having been started in good faith or good sense. They're just flame wars waiting to happen.

Part of the other reason for marking images as het, yaoi, shonen-ai, shojo-ai, gen, and whatnot, is because some people do read at work. And saying, "it's not work safe" just isn't quite enough. Actually rather vague, because what some people think isn't work-safe is pretty damn tame. Just keep posting on the fm_alchemist, with links and whatnot, label everything as consistently and concientiously as you can manage (or feel up to), and let the cards fall where they may.

Besides, I don't wanna miss out on your artwork.

I gave...someone...permission to use my Sailor Roy and Sailor BeanEd pic for their site, and now I have no idea who it was...o.O;;.

Roy the virgin...would be INSANELY cute.
