I am that person and that's not what I said?

Yes, it is.

If you put in only shippy requests and say you only want ship, you're asking for spitefic and if you get it you deserve it.

if you get gen it is not going to be spitefic??? it's gonna be someone doing yuletide as intended?

1. If you expect to force your writer to write you ship you're doing it wrong.

2. If you request ship and get gen instead, your writer is not doing anything wrong.

Sorry I didn't think I needed to add in my original comment, because I thought it was a given,

3. If you say you'd like ship without excluding gen, and get ship, that's great! You both did things right.

I forgot coalies have persecution complexes and zero reading comprehension. It's been a year, my bad

???? How is this even a relevant reply? It's like you were proven a liar and then just started talking about something completely different while whining about how everyone else is so dumb and blah blah.

You can't literally say that people deserve to get spitefic if they only give shippy prompts and then try to blame "zero reading comprehension" when people call you out for it.

"people shouldn't only give shippy prompts and then get mad if they don't get ship" is not the same thing as "yuletide isn't for ships at all". Very different statements! Nobody here is saying that there should not be ships in yuletide at all. That's where the reading comprehension and persecution complex problems come in.

"It's okay that we didn't get a lollipop today even though we asked for one, don't throw a tantrum" != "let's ban all lollipops"

No, it isn't, but AGAIN that is not what you said. "If you put in only shippy requests and say you only want ship, you're asking for spitefic and if you get it you deserve it." Very different statements, indeed.

That sentence says nothing whatsoever about whether it's okay to request ship or write ship, as long as you don't say it's the only thing you want! "if you.... say you only want ship" is the operative statement there. You need to read the whole entire sentence at once, and then maybe learn about how logical statements work.

I will happily stand by saying that if you try to force your recip to write you ship and give them no other options other than odao, and then call it spite if you get odao, you deserve whatever you get, and I knew that would make certain people mad. This is a very different statement than "people shouldn't ever request ship". Please stop being mad about the thing nobody said! Be mad about what I actually said!

shut uppppppppp already

NA

Nonny, earnestly, stop it already. You said something you maybe didn't fully mean, but you still said it. Just owe up to that fact instead of trying to lie about it; we can all see what you said.
