Pet-Peeves
FG Guide To: Apply FicsPet-Peeves
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Dunno if these actually qualify as pet-peeves but I really wanted to make a chapter on questions that people ask/say that really annoy me... and I have noticed most of the people who ask these questions ARE regular applyers so they should know what the hell they are doing.
The List
"Where's the app?" Uh being finished? You know how many people ask this question the DAY the story is posted? Give them a week tops to put the app up that takes time.
"Can I still apply (even though the fic is already started)?" No. No you can't.
"Can I be co-author?" If I didn't ask for one then no.
"When will you update?" Well I was going to today but thanks to you I'm not going to. Even if the fic is pretty much dead it's extremely rude to ask, that person has a life.
"Can I use idols or ulzzang?" Read the rules/cheatsheet bro.
"Can I have an idol sibling?" Read the rules/cheatsheet bro.
"Do you want me to re-send my app?" This just confuses me, I can find it it's the same URL you sent before right?
"But the personality is real!" Wait, what? No no no the OC's should NOT be like you, that's kind of the point.
"I'm going to apply, wait for me!" I said there is no deadline why are you saying that?
"I'll apply! *unsubs*" Why would you say that and decide not to? That just confuses me, and is one of the reasons why I never say I will definetly apply for something.
"Thanks for accepting my character!" Wait I didn't accept them I only added them to the applyer page oh god what do I do? (And the reason I only use pending+rejected+chosen, not accepted)

If You Are Writing: N/A
If You Are Applying: Obviously not all questions are bad but there are stupid questions out there, just like there are stupid answers. Some of these things are either self explanatory or in front of your face.
