Something rather unfortunate was found inside our role pm.
We have a posting restriction, and it is mean.
All of our posts must have correct capitalization. Each post must end in appropriate punctuation. We are not allowed to post run on sentences or sentence fragments.
Before I opened my pole pm, I thought that both cabd and ffery thought of me as a friend. Now I see that they both wish me harm.
They have granted us a simple reprieve, and they have allowed for the use of emojis.
I am considering making post using only emojis if I feel the need to comment on something while phone posting However, that is something to consider when that moment comes.

I cannot believe that I still forgot a period after I spent so long working on that post. I saw it the moment I hit send.
Also, 'role PM' apparently involves no capitalization. To be fair fferyllt isn't capitalized, but I believe Cabd is. And for bonus points, 'run-on sentences' generally uses a hyphen. That's not at the end of the post though, so minimal judgment.
I believe that both of their accounts are listed without capitalization. I assume that account names should match the punctuation that the user entered when making the account.
That would mean that "morph the cat" and "skitter30" would not be capitalized, while "Shiro" and "Rogue" would need to be capitalized.
However, that post is already going to count as an infraction because there is no period at the end of one of my sentences.
I am also realizing that they have created a lot of extra work for themselves. Now they have to check all of my posts. Maybe it is as mean to them as it is to us.
Peace offering: I promise never to vote LLD prior to D3-at-earliest (barring guilties on her). I reserve right to state suspicion, but promise not to act on it, and the proxy vote is proof of commitment to this promise.
I do not like this.
If you think that someone is a member of the mafia, voting them out is playing to your win condition if you are a member of the town.
I doubt Lady Lambdadelta would want you to play soft ball with her.

I thnk it's NAI, and that's just a personality thing. I do agree that it is pro-scum.

When I followed up with the mods about our restriction, I was explicitly told that I could not use text abbreviations such as "brb".
I did not think to ask about abbreviating account names, so I decided to play it safe in my recent post.
