A MODLY POST OF MODLINESS

Jan 23, 2008 09:43

HELLO CAPSLOCK BLEACHERS! IT IS TIME FOR OUR ANNUAL WHENEVER-WE-FEEL-LIKE-IT GENERAL STATE OF CAPSLOCK MOD POST. WE URGE YOU TO READ THE WHOLE THING AS IT WILL MAKE YOUR CAPSLOCKING EXPERIENCE SMOOTHER AND ALSO HELP YOU AVOID AN ASSBEATING. NO ONE LIKES AN LJ ASSBEATING, SO THERE IS NO REASON NOT TO PAY ATTENTION OKAY.

HAI GAIZ, SO WITH OVER 1,100 MEMBERS NOW, THERE ARE BOUND TO BE SOME NEW FACES, SO THIS IS ESPECIALLY IMPORTANT FOR YOU. JUST AS A REFRESHER, WE ARE YOUR MODS: ARAFEL, JAINA AND MAEVETH. WE GOT TOGETHER TO WRITE UP THESE GUIDELINES FOR CAPSLOCK_BLEACH.

FIRST, WHAT CLB IS: THIS ONE IS EASY, JUST PERUSE OUR "MADE OF WIN" TAG. DO AS THEY DO AND YOU'RE GOLD.

NOW, FOR WHAT CLB ISN'T: THIS ONE SEEMS TO BE A LITTLE TRICKIER SO WE'RE LETTING YOU KNOW NOW.

-CLB IS NOT JUST BEING RANDOM LOUDLY. YOU KNOW WHEN PEOPLE POST FICS TO FFNET ALL "LOL THIS FIC IS ABOUT THE BLEACH CHARACTERS BEING RANDOM AND SPAZZING OUT, LOL READ AND REVIEW"? NO ONE LIKES THAT. THE SAME APPLIES TO CLB.

IF ONLY PEOPLE WHO KNOW YOU WOULD BE INTERESTED: POST IT TO YOUR FLIST.
IF PERFECT STRANGERS WOULD NOT CARE: POST IT TO YOUR FLIST.

RANDOM BRAINFARTS ARE NOT CAPSLOCK. "I SAW A TURD AND IT MADE ME THINK OF BAWABAWA LOL SO FUNNY AMIRITE" IS NOT CAPSLOCK.

-CLB IS NOT FOR COSPLAY ATTENTION WHORING. IF YOU HAVE SOME COOL COSPLAY PICS THAT ARE AWESOMESAUCE AND YOU WANT TO SQUEE OVER THEM: NO. THAT IS WHAT BLEACH_COSPLAY IS FOR. "LOOK AT ME IN THIS ICHIGO WIG" AND "DO YOU THINK I LOOK LIKE SOI FONG" ARE RIGHT OUT.

EXCEPTIONS:
*COSPLAY FRIDAY, WHICH WE WILL BE BETTER ABOUT SCHEDULING PERIODICALLY, WE PROMISE. YOU JUST NEVER KNOW WHEN IT WILL STRIKE OUT OF THE DARKNESS, LIKE NINJAS. THEN ANYTHING IS GO.
*CAPSLOCKY COSPLAY. COSPLAYERS ON A BANCOUCH? COSPLAYERS DANCING TO OK GO FOR THE ENJOYMENT OF CLB? THUMBS UP! WHEN IN DOUBT, ASK. CAMWHORES = NO.

-POSTING FUNLARIOUS CAPSLOCKY ART LIKE THE BLEACH FISH IS GREAT. BUT DON'T JUST POST LINKS TO UP YOUR DA HIT COUNT, THAT IS LAME. GIVE IT TO US STRAIGHT ON THE PAGE. AND IF IT IS NOT YOUR ARTISTIC CREATION, IT IS PROBABLY BEST SAVED FOR "WTF WEDNESDAYS" (I'LL GET TO THAT).

-ABOUT TAGS: THE IS THIS CAPSLOCK? TAG IS A BAD THING. WE ARE ALL WELCOME TO DIFFERENT OPINIONS, BUT IF YOUR POST GETS THAT TAG, IT IS PROBABLY DOIN' IT WRONG. THINK ABOUT THIS.

REALLY, IT IS NOT THAT HARD; WE ARE NOT LURKING AROUND CORNERS WAITING TO GET PUSHY WITH Y'ALL. THE BEST KIND OF MODDING IS NOT HAVING TO DO ANY MODDING AT ALL. BUT WE GOT A BIT SLACK OVER THE HOLIDAYS, AND PEOPLE HAVE MADE SOME COMPLAINTS, AND WE NEED TO NOT BE SLACK. SOME POSTS ARE FUNNIER THAN OTHERS, BUT IF ONE DOES NOT BELONG, WE WILL BE MORE ON THE BALL ABOUT DELETING IT.

SOME GOOD THINGS TO LOOK FORWARD TO: WE ARE GOING TO PLAN SOME MORE THEMED DAYS FOR FUN SHENANIGANS. PLZ FEEL FREE TO OFFER SUGGESTIONS. THIS WEEK WILL BE THE FIRST SEMI-RECURRING "WTF WEDNESDAY," WHERE YOU POST SOME OF THE CRAAAAZY BLEACH STUFF YOU HAVE FOUND HERE ON THIS WORLD WIDE WEBZ, WHETHER IT IS YOUR CREATION OR NOT. BOO-YAH.

FEEL FREE TO COMMENT, AND IF YOU EVER HAVE ANY QUESTIONS, COMPLAINTS, ETC. WE ARE ALWAYS ON LJ FOR YOU TO CONTACT. EXCEPT WHEN WE ARE ASLEEP.

K BAI.
