Just as a friendly reminder-

Breaking the fourth wall is sort of part of the premise of DDD. However, not everyone wants their characters spoiled about their own canon, so for etiquette's sake please run that sort of thing past the other mun first. :) That's what we've been doing, but we had a question about it so I'm reiterating.

(And don't overdo it to the point it gets old, of course. Norry wanted me to add that. ♥)

We haven't had any actual complaints about this so far, so let's keep it that way!

Thanks, everyone.

Recognizing your issue and attempting to find an appropriate conclusion that doesn't put all the weight on us!

Honestly, I'd recommend making some sort of announcement on your journal asking specifically that people come talk to you about 4th wall stuff before they post it, if it involves your character or your characters canon.

If they continue to do it without your permission, attempt to contact them to ask them to stop or come to some sort of conclusion and if they are unwilling or unreachable, come to us.

I hate to see 4th wall stuff become a problem, but honestly I think it's been way too exhausted. i mean, half the time characters are 4th walled in their intro's; it's just a bad habit that was never kept in check.

Guarantee from this mod that I will be available to help regarding 4th wall intrusive stuff should you need it. ♥

I didn't mean for this to turn into some whole big thing (I'm not that other anon up there...). I just don't want my characters to get their 4th walls broken without my permission because I don't think one of them would handle it very well at all. I'll make an announcement... maybe not any time soon, because it would give away my identity, but some time in the future...

Thanks Norry. ♥

It's no problem what so ever, and the fear is very valid. I know had I been playing a super hero or someone who's identity needed to be concealed for many reasons, I'd be worried that the lack of 4th wall tact on ddd would make them ... just not fun to play! And that's not really cool :\ ♥ I hope the announcement goes well and feel free to IM me about any other concerns, I'd be happy to help you with them. ♥
