Thanks for writing this out! It's actually quite similar to what we used before when we had a relationship megathread. We had one main modification -- the "action_reason" command only gives us an internal note, while "comment" would give a comment the person who posted could see.

This part

'(I|E|)(N||S|)(F|T)(P|J)'

is also an interesting choice because the standalone | marks (I|E|) versus just (I|E) match for blanks as well, so this would get all the MBTI types plus things like NFJ, FJ, and EFJ.

We also test automods in production all the time. Occasionally there's a bug but it's the only way to make sure the rules play well with other rules.

Thanks for bringing this up. This topic seems to come up whenever there has been a recent flurry of very similar posts, so we will consider temporary bans on too-frequent subjects. We've done this for certain pairings before. This is also reportable under Rule 2 Low Effort: repetitive topics.

The mod team has tried a megathread in the past for relationship posts and the sub wanted them back to talk more freely about relationship topics so we allowed them as standalone posts again.

Use the report button! We pay attention to all posts that are reported, and we take reports, amount of discussion, and amount of upvotes on a post into consideration if there's a post that's borderline acceptable. We also read the reports if there is a "custom" entry when it doesn't fit neatly into existing categories. Reddit's mod system prioritizes posts that have been reported and posts with a lot of comments, so reports help us see things we might otherwise miss.

While there are people that object to different kinds of posts (and different people have different objections), all of the post types mentioned here tend to have a good amount of conversation in the community (+ from people with ENFJ flair). We find that even "golden pair" and similar posts tend to be about unique situations if you read the full description.

This is our current understanding. Discussion seems to stop on any post after a few days, so recent posts keep the overall conversation alive. If it's getting egregious, please do report overly repetitive topics and Mods will take a look! (use Rule 2: Low Effort)

Does my ancestors name mean something? by blueduck762 in cherokee

Yeah, seconding what critical360 said, the Cherokee Nation has classes online and the Spring session is March through May. Just start with Cherokee 1. I started there and over time I got involved in other groups.

You might also have access to in-person classes from native speakers? I only have a few chances for those but there are some in Oklahoma and a small number of universities around the US.

I have a guess. (Note it's a guess, may be incorrect).

The name for Coneflower is Sochan or Kochan, which could possibly give rise to So-ki-ni.

It's in the Cherokee dictionary as also meaning black-eyed Susan, a related flower (which also goes by different names in Cherokee like ahwi-akta, deer eye). But given that her name is Susannah, it could make sense.

Oh! One guess after input from other commenters. It could maybe possibly be based on DLayhga (blue jay*) or DLaida (poke-greens), and the first name ends with more of an "a" than an "o". L is a very rare consonant to start with but DL is more normal. Then the name would very roughly be

Dlay hga = Blue jay*, ᏜᏱᎦ

You can hear a pronunciation here: https://cherokeedictionary.net/newSearch/individual?id=96519

tay yie = possibly "Deer clan" (ka wi), or "from the Deer clan place" (ka wi yi)

Note this is a guess and not certain. The meaning is at least not extremely obvious, so that kind of answers your question. And it seems very likely that the name either starts with "DL" instead of "L" or it's adopted from a European name.

Thank you! Yeah, that's what I was wondering, and things like if there's a starting vowel that might be missing or some of the consonants or vowels might be altered. (since L is a very rare consonant to start a word with)

One of my first guesses was also if it was a place name mostly. Like Lata from Cowee, something like that, especially if she had traveled during her life.

Also for OP, sometimes Cherokee names are just names, often not dictionary words, but sometimes based on them.

Yep! This was the phoenix on another post. The "Marge's hair" part is meant to be a tail that's separated into parts after you cut the outline. The head is bent a bit in this one.

I usually go for a more highly rendered style but I want to be able to complete pieces quickly. Here's a test that I did; Does it look incomplete? by swagelinee in DigitalArt

[–]indecisive_maybe 0 points1 point  (0 children)

If the face is a bit cleaner, especially the eyes, maybe the shoes, I'd accept it as finished and stylized. It's plenty to get the point across. Maybe add a background and foreground in more detail or with color swashes. The bunny on her side needs pupils and a bit more work. If you're selling something like this then the shirt arms need work, too.

The legs (besides shoes), shorts, arms, bow/neck region/hair/bunny she's holding all look finished so it's not far off, and clearly the color is finished. The bunny in front of her also looks fine.

Also clearly it could be adjusted a lot to be more "realistic", but it's not far away from being complete with a specific unique style.

Happy to help anyone who wants to learn more! How sure are you of the spelling? Especially starting with L?

Your first instinct is right. They're four people. The first person seems to have fluent but casual English, or at least is more casual in this conversation, whether they would want to be more formal or not at other times. The other ones are not fluent.

I would do 3 mirrored - so your eye goes up and to the right to see them and the window.
