That was a lot more warnings than I was expecting but I’ll check it out, thanks!
Platonically of course. /s
Man it's gotta be frustrating for people seeking such friendships, every description of what they want sounds like innuendo in text.
Relevant question: anyone know how to pronounce “yaoi?” In my head, it’s yowie, but that doesn’t feel right
That's pretty much it!
If you want to be pedantic about it, it's pronounced like
Ya(cht) o(ar) ea(t)
Or
Ya(cht) o(ar) oui
In American English. (Stop pronouncing the words at the parenthesis). Better to learn IPA for this sort of questions
it's Lois but with Y instead of L, so it becomes Yaoi
Edith: oh fuck, Lois without the 's' being pronounced, so it's basically Loi
Wild, I did not expect that. Thank you! Do you know why it’s transliterated with an a?
every language says 'a' like 'ahh', in English it's 'ayy' which sounds closer to 'e' and the English 'e' sounds like 'i' in Turkish, and Turkish is phonetically accurate like Japanese, where you can see how it works out with the words 'istanbul' and 'anime', but English is weird again by prolonging the 'e' at the end of anime
Japanese isn't transliterated with English pronounciation in mind, though.
Sorry, I don’t see an “ah” in Lois, was that just for the post “ya” vowels?
Fuck I accidentally used vowel harmony with Lois, you're correct, I am wrong when I used Lois as an example.
I am struggling to find an example where a single letter being switched allows you to full comprehend how to pronounce Yaoi
Let's make up an exercise
The 'a' in Yaoi is pronounced the same as the 'a' when you say 'ahhh' in an exasperated tone
The end of Yaoi Sounds similar to 'ie' in English, so 'oi' => '(w)ie'
So, it becomes like:
Yahh-wie
lol, no worries. That’s basically what I was picturing with yowie, lmao
Yes I'm over complicating it
"They seem like good friends."

Community Rules
You must post before you leave
Be nice. Assume others have good intent (within reason).
Block or ignore posts, comments, and users that irritate you in some way rather than engaging. Report if they are actually breaking community rules.
Use content warnings and/or mark as NSFW when appropriate. Most posts with content warnings likely need to be marked NSFW.
Most 196 posts are memes, shitposts, cute images, or even just recent things that happened, etc. There is no real theme, but try to avoid posts that are very inflammatory, offensive, very low quality, or very "off topic".
Bigotry is not allowed, this includes (but is not limited to): Homophobia, Transphobia, Racism, Sexism, Abelism, Classism, or discrimination based on things like Ethnicity, Nationality, Language, or Religion.
Avoid shilling for corporations, posting advertisements, or promoting exploitation of workers.
Proselytization, support, or defense of authoritarianism is not welcome. This includes but is not limited to: imperialism, nationalism, genocide denial, ethnic or racial supremacy, fascism, Nazism, Marxism-Leninism, Maoism, etc.

Moderator Guidelines
Moderator Guidelines
- Don’t be mean to users. Be gentle or neutral.
- Most moderator actions which have a modlog message should include your username.
- When in doubt about whether or not a user is problematic, send them a DM.
- Don’t waste time debating/arguing with problematic users.
- Assume the best, but don’t tolerate sealioning/just asking questions/concern trolling.
- Ask another mod to take over cases you struggle with, if you get tired, or when things get personal.
- Ask the other mods for advice when things get complicated.
- Share everything you do in the mod matrix, both so several mods aren't unknowingly handling the same issues, but also so you can receive feedback on what you intend to do.
- Don't rush mod actions. If a case doesn't need to be handled right away, consider taking a short break before getting to it. This is to say, cool down and make room for feedback.
- Don’t perform too much moderation in the comments, except if you want a verdict to be public or to ask people to dial a convo down/stop. Single comment warnings are okay.
- Send users concise DMs about verdicts about them, such as bans etc, except in cases where it is clear we don’t want them at all, such as obvious transphobes. No need to notify someone they haven’t been banned of course.
- Explain to a user why their behavior is problematic and how it is distressing others rather than engage with whatever they are saying. Ask them to avoid this in the future and send them packing if they do not comply.
- First warn users, then temp ban them, then finally perma ban them when they break the rules or act inappropriately. Skip steps if necessary.
- Use neutral statements like “this statement can be considered transphobic” rather than “you are being transphobic”.
- No large decisions or actions without community input (polls or meta posts f.ex.).
- Large internal decisions (such as ousting a mod) might require a vote, needing more than 50% of the votes to pass. Also consider asking the community for feedback.
- Remember you are a voluntary moderator. You don’t get paid. Take a break when you need one. Perhaps ask another moderator to step in if necessary.
