Forming a group

I have a lot to say so this will be a series of posts or I’ll reblog this one with my new info as we go. Kay so. Tag to blacklist will be: honey forms a group

Me and mutual @sebastiansloserclub are forming a group on here.

Some things abt who can join:

You don’t have to be just a SebStan blog

You don’t have to be a MCU/DC/anything comic or superhero related

You don’t have to be into the other popular mainstream buff dudes (Henry Cavill, Chris Evans, Hemsworth, Oscar Isaac, Etc.)

You don’t have to be a fandom acct of any kind

It’s okay if you have made stuff but have never shared anything

If you don’t make content, BUT are open to learning

You have knowledge of writing, art, gif making, programming, picture editing, photo editing, photoshop, design, tech, video making, editing (writing or tech or art)

You are not the kind of person who will only like things but never reblog

You are not the kind of person who will play favorites or only interact with ppl who have a high follower count/popularity

You are not the kind of person who sends anon hate

You are not the kind of person who wants only popularity

You are down to support unique ideas, offer constructive criticism, be able to take constructive criticism

You are not the kind of person who will play mind games, ghost ppl, discriminate against minority groups

You don’t ascribe to what is often referred to as “boomer” mentality (idk what else to call it w/out being longwinded)

You are open to tagging things when ppl ask (esp in cases where the content is nsfw or possibly triggering)

You know and understand the faux pas for using tumblr are (taking over a post not made by or specifically for you w tagging large numbers of ppl, turning what was originally just a suggestive or flirty gif or post into an overtly sexual one, being overtly sexual as a constant, having conversations in reblogs rather than taking it to PMs)

You are not the kind of person who will rip off ideas (this isn’t directed at tropes/trends/and ideas that were meant to be shared purposely)

You are not the kind of person who reposts someone else’s original content w the excuse that you couldn’t find the OP/artist

You are not the kind of person who will steal and repost gifs

You are not the kind of person who isn’t open to help others unless you are getting something out of it (follow for follow, reblog for reblog, stacking odds, etc)

This is just a bit of the criteria. Our aim for this group is to find a family. A tight knit group of friends who are not fussed with our follower counts, our notes, or gaining dominion over any other accts/ppl. Our goal is one we have always wanted and why we went thru the hassle of sharing our works on here in the first place: we long for friends who will provide feedback, words, opinions on the things we make. Artists of any kind require an active audience, and the best kind of audience is not one that offers empty platitudes or asskissing so that they will get it in return. The most productive and helpful way to be a consumer of someone else’s work is to tell that creator SOMETHING, something more than “loved it do more!” something that will get that creator reaching for their pen again, itching to make more, excited to show their work bc they know they will hear back things they can take away and use when they create next time.

Artists on tumblr have BEEN underappreciated. And fic writers in particular face many obstacles when it comes to posting writing. Arguments that frame them as just clout hungry, angry readers who are always quick to complain, but never say a word when the writing is out of this world amazing. In fact it is almost like the writer is constantly begging for any lil scrap of any love. They end up accepting demanding requests from unappreciative anons just so they can feel like someone cares. It ain’t okay w me and I refuse to partake any longer. Hearing from so many of my beloved mutuals going thru the same thing has worked this girl up. I’m raring to go.

So, if you have read this far and seem interested. Send me a message or ask and we can start chatting more. I CANNOT VIEW REPLIES, SO PLEASE DO NOT ATTEMPT TO CONTACT US THIS WAY! This will be a small club, we wanna keep it close knit so each member can provide support and help w editing and beta’ing and such and such. We are not aiming for popularity like I said, so if you thinkin’ this will be something that comes out w huge challenges and daily prompts this isn’t for you. I’ll explain more like I said. But again, just wanna reiterate- there will be rules in place and it is probably not gonna be like other groups you may see on here.
