@maxine it's a 21+ server for the local-ish queer (particularly trans) scene so probably not

@ikeWren I would hope people would describe me like this. Albeit it's definitely not me I wouldn't be caught dead posting in a server like this.

@ikeWren tone tags are fine tbh. I use a couple myself. Sometimes people can't tell how serious I'm being about something, believe it or not

@ikeWren I have tried talking in these spaces before and getting to know local trans support groups but idk I don't think they are for me. I'm also a social idiot and a recluse usually so take what I day with a grain of salt. I felt like it was very cliquey in general and I just didn't belong.

@patchuun i think they're overly esoteric to people who aren't extremely online and not at all the best and clearest way of indicating tone . but also there are like 30 listed here which kinda proves my point

@ikeWren the ones I know are /s (the OG), /srs, /j, /lh, /nm, /gen, which is probably more than most people would say are necessary, but all of which have served me well in various contexts (except maybe /srs, that one is kind of redundant, /gen is better)

@ikeWren I should probably use /nm more when I'm doing a tough love, so they know I'm not actually mad at them and it's for their own good and I'm just trying to get them to not chud out

@patchuun i like /lh because i always read it as left handed for some reason . tone of sinisterness
