Some Reminders About Signups

sunberryWe got 16 signups already! That's awesome :D
I want to send out two reminders about signups, though, to keep all the bases covered.
* Only DNWs (Do Not Wants) that are in your signup form on AO3 need to be followed by your assigned creator, remember! Although creators, feel free to keep letter DNWs in mind if you want to, but they aren't binding. This is totally because letters can be edited later but not signups on AO3.
* Your DNWs are for letting your creator know that there's subjects you don't like or aren't comfortable with receiving for a gift, whether that's animal balloons or explicit fanworks or certain types of tropes (AUs, fluff, pregnancy fic, so on). DNWs are not meant to box in your creator and limit them to only creating one or two very specific potential subjects. You may give prompts and suggestions, of course! But they're only prompts and suggestions. Attempting to box your creator in to a particular interpretation of a character/relationship/trope runs into the Don't Be A Jerk rule. Don't do that.
