smplive system's boundaries !
GENERAL BOUNDARIES !
- do not intend to have romantic relations with us collectively as we are happily taken by our butch #ourbutch and we currently do not intend to add anyone else to the relationship currently ^_^ we are ok with friends, qpps, and alter partners however (WITH PERMISSION) !
- i know i can't fully stop this from happening but if you have issues with us please bring it up directly in dms instead of vague posting or talking about us negatively behind our back. not only does it make us insanely paranoid but we also will find out.
- do not compare alters to their problematic sources, or comparing either of them to their sources at all. they cannot control their source's actions and nearly all of our alters are disconnected from source anyways.
- please do not use any other pronouns that aren't she/it/shx or our neos, especially they. (exempt if the alter fronting uses they/them or if referring to all of us.) it's okay if it's a mistake or a habit to call people they before knowing their pronouns but after learning, we'd prefer if you used our coll. ones.
- do not request for someone to front and don't ask if we have specific alters just so they can be friends. we're fine with friends from the same source but we have to get to know each other first. we will not just become source friends simply because of sharing the same source, we need to get to know you fully.
- do not assume all of us are okay with pda/petnames/etc. please ask before doing something, especially if we don't really know you all that well!
- some alters do not particularly enjoy talking about source or seeing other sourcemates, please always make sure to ask if they're okay with discussing sourcetalk or speaking to sourcemates
- plz don't get angry with us if we have troubles replying, most of the time we forget or have severe nervousness speaking. if the conversation leaves off on an awkward mark and we don't reply, it's most likely because of nervousness. just be as patient with us as possible........
- our headcount changes quite often, whether it be splits or incorrectly submitted members, thus we do not have a stable headcount on everyone and prefer to keep our member lists and count private both because of safety and also because of it's fluctuations. please don't attempt to pry into our member lists. the closest you can get is through our simply plural and even then we don't give that out unless you ask and we know you well enough.
- despite being aware and being openly out as a system for many years, we still do not have a complete grip on most alter's identities and roles, some may change, whether it be their complete identity or just their roles. a lot of information may also possibly be outdated, however we are trying to keep everything up to date. please be patient with us during this. ^_^
- since i have to make this clear apparently, we have BORDERLINE PERSONALITY DISORDER!!!!!!!!!! WE ARE DISORDERED AND WILL ACT DISORDERED!!!!!!!!!!!! it is an explanation for a lot of our erratic or mood swingy behavior, and is the reason why we tend to slap iwc/iwec on everything. PLEASE be aware of this before interacting
