I have a genuine question I'd like to see anyone's answers to:
When submitting a request do you check the user's request status first? If not, why?
I've had many people send a rq and then right after clarify that they didn't see they were closed, so I'm wondering if it's just the placement of the status or something else.
Anyone can answer in any form, just know I won't answer every response as I'm still taking my break ! /gen

Hey there! I am the Gentle Sourcerer. You may call me as such, or you may simply call me by my name, Jacinth. My pronouns are they/them. I am 25 years old, and I was born on August 22nd. ^_^
I like to help stim blogs by finding misplaced or missing gif sources in stimboards. If you want a missing gif or gifs sourced, send it my way and I'll do my best to find it!
All gif makers, stim blogs, and anyone in the stim community may interact with me. I am a resource for all of you and I do not discriminate.
Follow the tag "the gentle sourcerer" to see all my important posts!
If you request my sourcing services through an ask, your answered ask will be tagged as "visitor: @/your username". If you ask on anon, it will be tagged as "anonymous visitor". This is for your convenience if you lose the post with the sources I have provided for you or if you simply need to refer to them again.
A tag I use, called "commonly misplaced gif sources" will contain popular gifs I find the sources of for others and for myself. If you have a gif you cannot seem to find the source for and you know it may be popular, please have a look in that tag. For a more finely tuned search, add a simple descriptive keyword to the end of "commonly misplaced gif sources", for example "slime", "resin shakers", "soap cutting", etc., as I do add one or two identifying tags for these gifs so they can be found more easily. I will only put sources in this tag that are commonly stolen or misplaced.
The same rules apply for the tag "found sources". This tag is a catch-all tag strictly for all sources I have been requested to find, common or not, mostly so I can keep up with them in the event I need to refer back to them.
If a previously undiscovered source is found by myself or someone else, the original post in which my services were requested will be reblogged under "gentle updates", equipped with fresh links to the gifset in question and/or the original source video.
Any gifsets I create to replace old or lost gifs can be found in the tag "jacinth's gifsets".
The tag "source lists" refers to stimboards I have found most of or all the gif sources for, usually on request of others. I sometimes will do this as a courtesy as well. For stimboards I have only been asked to find one or a few sources for, they will be tagged as "re sourcing" and "links", though the links tag is more broad.
In the event I find gifs that have been purposefully stolen, as in re-posted for notes while lacking credit, I will tag them as "stolen gifs". This does not apply to stim blogs typically, I use this tag mainly for non-stim focused accounts that re-post gifs to farm interactions or to act as note bait for their own blogs.
And for all other asks of the non-sourcing variety, I use the tag "kind visitors".
I use the tag "gentle discussions" to chat with others about problems or trends within the stim community. I also use the tag "gentle reblogs" for posts I made for other purposes that received a response from the sender to which I will have reblogged with a new response.
Two very reliable resources I use for finding deleted or deactivated gif sources are the blogs @deletedstimgifs and @old-web-stims. Please visit them if you're struggling to find a source you know has been deleted, and simply search the deactivated user's name in their search bar.
Thank you for reading!

Why do people want you to source and credit the gifs in stimboards?
All stim gifs are made by someone and usually have an original source, often that source is an online video but it can also be something the person filmed and then giffed themselves. Gifs can seem simple but take time to make, stim gif makers often edit them to make them look good (altering colour, contrast, brightness & altering the speed etc). Making gifs and gif sets is an art form in it's own right and gif makers really deserves credit for their work.
And it's also important that people can find the original sources of online videos that have been giffed. Stim gifs often come from a variety of sources, often creators on Instagram or Youtube and even Tiktok. The people who make videos are creators and artists, they put a lot of work into both what they're creating or doing in a video, and also in the filming and editing of the video. It's super important that they are credited so people can appreciate their work and also give them the views and positive feedback they need to do well on the platform they're on.
Once gifs are used in stimboards without credit (or uploaded to Pinterest etc), nobody can find the original gif maker or even the original video source. All of the work and effort put in by all parties is no longer appreciated, it's now just a sourceless pretty gif. And people can't find the original source so neither the gif maker or the video creator, will get any positive interaction.
In a similiar way to art theft, not sourcing stim gifs prevents people from finding the source and takes appreciation away from the creators. Crediting and providing sources shows that you care about the work put into the content, and recognize the real people who made it. And it's just the kind thing to do! :3

account update
we understand that many folks dislike us not using/giving direct links for our gifs. from this point on, we are going to try and not do this and add credits for as many as we can. we aren't perfect and we'll slip up, but it does matter to try.
this overall will go on anything we make starting after this post. if you see that we don't have credit for something that you already know the link of, feel free to let us know and we'll add it when we're able to.
thank you all for understanding. we hope everyone has a happy new years!

As I'm sure many of you are aware, this blog is highly inactive. I rarely post anything on here anymore. I've been so busy with school, and I really can't balance making stimboards and working on this blog. I've had a policy of never closing my ask box, nor have I ever limited what I request. As of now, I'm going to go through my inbox, delete requests that are too old, delete requests from deactivated blogs, and delete requests that I know I'll never do.
I've had so many characters and things I want to make stimboards for that I've never let myself make because it felt wrong because I have so many requests (over 200). From now on, I'm going to make boards of whatever I want. I'll be more selective about requests and just do the ones I have energy for! I'll be more likely to do things from series I know or am into. I'm thinking of creating a whitelist of things I'll definitely do if I get a request for them. Thank you so much to all my followers and friends for sticking with me.
