I got a small question so if you may, please answer Jace.
What are tone tags?
AH! Sorry! I guess it didn't occur to me that some wouldn't know what tone tags were. Here's a full guide from this site!
what is tone? tone is what a phrase or statement means or comes across as despite what it's actually saying. examples of tone could be serious, joking, lighthearted, etc.
what are tone tags? tone tags / tone indicators are things you can include with text to indicate what the tone of it is.
why are they used? some people have difficulty picking up on tone. communicating through text only makes this harder due to lack of audio and physical clues (voice inflection, body language, facial expressions, etc.) tagging what tone you are using can be very helpful for others understanding of what you're saying, clarification, avoiding miscommunications, etc.
when/where should they be used? they can be used any time or place you may be communicating through text. do not mock the use of tone tags. you may not need them but some people do. not everyone can tell when something is a joke, etc. just be nice about it.
MASTERLIST:
/j = joking /hj = half joking /s or /sarc = sarcastic / sarcasm /srs = serious /nsrs = not serious /lh = light hearted /g or /gen = genuine / genuine question /ij = inside joke /ref = reference /t = teasing /nm = not mad /lu = a little upset /nf = not forced /nbh = nobody here /nsb = not subtweeting /nay = not at you /ay = at you /nbr = not being rude /ot = off topic /th = threat /cb = clickbait /f = fake /q = quote /l or /ly = lyrics /c = copypasta /m = metaphor / metaphorically /li = literal / literally /rt or /rh = rhetorical question /hyp = hyperbole /ex = exaggeration /p = platonic /r = romantic /a = alterous /sx or /x = sexual intent /nsx or /ns = non-sexual intent /pc or /pos = positive connotation /nc or /neg = negative connotation /neu = neutral / neutral connotation

A guide to tone indicators you might find in this blog (and others)
/j -> joking. it indicates something is a joke
/hj -> half joking. it is used when there's a joke with a truth innuendo.
/s -> sarcasm. used to indicate sarcastic remarks
/ref -> reference. if you see this, that phrase is a reference to something pre existing.
/lyr -> when something is a lyric of a song
/gn -> gender neutral. when something (usually an expression that could be gendered) was meant in a gender neutral way
/lh -> light-hearted. used to indicate that the tone isn't very serious (usually used when not joking but the tone is relaxed).
/srs -> serious. for when something is supposed to be taken seriously.
/gen -> genuine. when something is meant genuinely, in a more light hearted way than /srs.
/genq -> genuine question. when a question is made genuinely and out of good faith. basically like /gen, but for questions.
/nm -> not mad. to emphasize that op isn't indeed mad, usually used in response to someone
/pos -> positive connotation
/neg -> negative connotation
/neu -> neutral connotation
/p -> platonic. it's for when something is meant platonically
/r -> romantic. it's for when something is meant romantically
/sx -> sexual. for when something is supposed to be read as sexual
/nsx -> not sexual. for when something is supposed to be read as not sexual
there are more tone indicators than this. these are the ones you might see on this blog most often, though.
sometimes, you'll see / and a full word as a tone indicator. said word doesn't need to be on the aforementioned list, even. an example of this I use is "/silly".
if you don't understand the tone indicator or tone of a post of mine, feel free to ask!

Page Introduction
Hi I'm Tam! I make art and do witchcraft(Shifting, work with deities, etc). You don't have to believe in the same things I do, you can even call bs but do it silently. You can just stay for the art. I don't care I just ask you be respectful.
I go by any pronouns but They/Them is always comfortable unless stated otherwise
No DNI just don't be a dick and go around harassing/ hurting people and we can be chill.
I'm autistic and a system, if someone else is speaking they'll make themselves known but usually it'll just be me(Tam/Kota) running the page. My family knows about my other accounts so that's why I don't talk about it everywhere else. I like to keep them out of my mental health shit.
I would also appreciate it if you used tone indicators. I have a hard time reading tone most times and it would be really helpful.
Some Tone Indicators and their meanings
/j = Joking
/hj = Half Joking
/s = Sarcastic
/g or /gen = Genuine
/srs = Serious
/nsrs = Not Serious

/neu = Neutral
/p = Platonic
/lh = Lighthearted
/nbh = Nobody Here
/rh or /rt = Rhetorical Question
/t = Teasiing
/m = Metaphorically
/li = Literally
/Aff = Affectionate
Yeah That's pretty much it for now. Happy Creation, humans and cryptids.

Feel free to not actually post this, but I wanted to let you know if you mean this comment: “also i’d make a great mom fuck you/pos”
I think they mean the /pos to mean “positive connotation”, unless there’s another comment that was removed/I didn’t see.
If you’re not aware (like I wasn’t until recently) people have started using tone tags to help other people know if they’re being serious/joking/etc. And /pos is a tone tag used to show positive connotation.
(I hate that it’s pos because every time I think someone’s calling me a piece of shit because that’s what I’m used to it meaning lmao)
Oh!
Omg, thank you ❤️ ! I had no idea! I also only use POS if I mean piece of shit so I was so thrown off and confused haha.

𝐆𝐔𝐈𝐃𝐄𝐋𝐈𝐍𝐄𝐒 𝐀𝐍𝐃 𝐁𝐋𝐎𝐆 𝐑𝐔𝐋𝐄𝐒
i don’t have an age limit on my blog! anyone of any age can interact! but please if you’re an adult don’t flirt with me or say anything sexual. i’m perfectly okay with pet names, i actually find pet names really comforting, just nothing inappropriate. i’m okay with compliments as well! if your an account that doesn’t let minors interact or has “MDNI” in their bio, please don’t interact. you’re kind of just going against your own rules. unless we discuss it beforehand. if i follow you and you’re a MDNI account, please let me know to unfollow you/not to interact with your posts! sometimes whenever i search up “___ x reader” it’ll show me fluff as well as smut and sometimes when i’m reading really good fluff or angst i just kind of absentmindedly follow without checking the account first. that’s a mistake on my part!!
i’m a very sensitive person, please don’t be mean. i know people are going to hate nonetheless, but i mean towards each other. most the time i can handle hate towards myself, i don’t usually bother me. but if negative things are said about my friends or people i love, then it’s a problem. let’s all be kind and love each other, if you have a problem with someone please handle it on your own time!! i don’t want any negativity on my page. but, i do like putting my opinions out in the world for people to see and decide if they disagree or not, so i’m okay with respectful conversations!
i may or may not right smut, it honestly just depends on how comfortable i am and how much it is. i’ve written smut like twice and never posted it because i cringe at myself sometimes.
constructive criticism is appreciated!
if my request say closed you may still send request, just don’t expect them to be done immediately!!
DNI: if you’re racist, homophobic, transphobic, sexist, ableist, misogynistic, bully people who use neo pronouns, discriminate against someone because of their religion, say slurs you can’t claim, etc. just be a good person.
BYI: i’m very busy with school, so i might not be active much sometimes!! i write on my own accord, if i don’t have motivation i won’t write, nor will i try and force myself to write. if you send a request, and i don’t answer immediately please don’t be upset! i’m either busy, haven’t seen it, or don’t have the motivation to write.
also, i struggle with tones and social cues, so if you don’t mind, please use tone tags! if you don’t know what a tone tag is, here are some examples: /j = joking, /srs = serious, s = sarcastic, /p = platonic, /r = romantic, /nm = not mad or upset, /neg = negative connotation, /pos = positive connotation, /lh = lighthearted, and there’s probably some more but those are all the ones i know of right now!
also, my blog is a safe place for everyone! regardless of race, gender, sexuality, etc! just be respect please!! thank you, my loves! and if you’re ever uncomfortable with anything i do please let me know immediately!

/pos is a tone indicator or tone tag that means positive connotations, usually used to clarify the intent behind a statement that could be taken the wrong way. there are other tone tags too that indicate different things, like /j means a joke, or /gen means genuine or sincere :)
Thank you, I've learned a lot today.
I thought it was 'piece of shit' 😂

can we just talk about how tone indicators are being misused and overused? it’s absolutely killing me, it’s so unnecessary the way people use them and it destroys any hope of just regular people outside of fandom spaces using them.
tone indicators have been used for years, especially in places like reddit, and they’ve never been used the way dsmp stans (and probably more but i’m not really following other fandoms so idk) use them.
“OH MY GOD I LOVE YOUR ART ITS SO PERFECT /POS” you don’t need the /pos. obviously saying you love someone’s art has positive connotations.
“[insert common fandom joke] /j” we know it’s a joke. we get it.
“just lost my phone /neg” why the fuck would it be /pos? obviously it’s /neg.
“read my bio /srs” why would that be /j.
idk it’s just frustrating to me because i do need tone indicators and i’d love to be able to ask for them without people typing like “oh my god hi /neu how are you /genq i love your shirt /pos”. i just need people to clarify if something’s a joke sometimes not whatever the fuck that is.
and there’s tone indicators in most normal peoples conversations too- like emojis or “lmao” or “smh”. they indicate tone as well, just in a different way.
i think the biggest take away from this is that you won’t be able to improve on recognizing tone if you rely so heavily on tone indicators that you need them for every phrase. a LOT of people (mostly dsmp stans tbf) seem to forget that you should want to improve with mental illnesses/disabilities. you should be trying to learn how to be stable, how to control your emotions, how to recognize tone. it’s super important to learn these things, even if it’s very difficult, because there is a world outside of your internet safe space and you need to be able to navigate it.
#if you have anything to add to this please do so#i’m adhd and asd and lemme tell you tone indicators would be so helpful if y’all (twt) didn’t use them like you do#there’s something so frustrating about being an adult in the fandom because#you’re watching these kids knowing full well they’re never going to grow#and they don’t listen to people telling them that#chronically online moment#fandom criticism#fandom critique#dsmp critical#dream smp#dsmp#mcyt#tone indicators

A simple guide of tone indicators for those who need it
/j = joking
/hj = half-joking
/lh = light-hearted
/s = sarcasm
/g or /gen = genuine tone or genuine question
/p = platonic
/srs = serious
/lyr = lyrics
/c = copypasta
/q = quote
/r = romantic
/t = teasing
/nm = not actually mad
/nc or /neg = negative connotation
/pc or /pos = positive connotation
/nbh = nobody here (to reassure others in a chat or server that they’re not the ones being talked about in a vent)
/m = metaphorically
/li = literally
/ij = inside joke
/rh or /rt = rhetorical question
/hyp = hyperbole
/sx or /x = sexual intent
/nsx or /nx = non-sexual intent
/th = threat
/cb = clickbait
/f = fake
A special thanks to @reecebug and @riverevali for compiling this information! I just wanted to spread it around as much as possible for the convenience of those who may struggle with reading the tone of written text without verbal indicators, whether they’re neurodivergent or not. I know not all neurodivergent people need these indicators but I just want to give my support to those who do. If you know of any other tone indicators that were left out, please let me know so I can add it to the post!

I personally find tone indicators to be very helpful. I have a debilitating fear of abandonment, so my brain is always tuned in to pick up on the slightest hint of dislike or disapproval. If I get a milder reaction than I expected to a joke I sent in the group chat, for instance, my brain will immediately go into panic mode trying to make it better and make sure they still like me, but if it has /pos (meaning positive) on it it makes that insecurity go away. I also have a hard time telling if something is sarcastic or not, so /s (meaning sarcastic/satire) and /gen (meaning genuine) are also helpful for me. Another useful tone indicator is /p or /pl (meaning platonic), bc that helps make it so that something that would've been weird if the intent was romantic no longer has those connotations. /gen can also mean general, depending on the context, ie. you (gen) instead of you specifically. Usually the way I've seen it done to mean general is in parentheses, though, so there is a difference in the way they're written. There's also /neg (meaning negative) which is another thing that can help get tone across. I'm sure there are others, but these are the ones I personally use and find helpful.
--
I can see how they'd be helpful in a discord where everyone knows these ones and the rules for how to use them.

‼just a quick reminder to please use tone indicators‼
/j = joking/joke
/hj = half joking
/g or /gen = genuine
/p = platonic
/pos = positive/positive connotation
/neg = negative/negative connotation
/srs = serious
/ly = lyric
/hyp = hyperbole
/lh = lighthearted
(these are just some, you can find better lists)
because some people need them, even if you think the tone/meaning of what your saying is obvious, use them.
even if it's an interaction between you and one other person and YOU know the tone, use them, others might not
even if you think it "ruins the joke". it doesnt. if it runs the joke it probably wasnt funny in the first place
