Quick little poll for anyone who wants to throw some thoughts in :)

─ ⋆⋅ ☾⋅⋆ ─

hello!

I have a few east asian and black bots i'm working on in my drafts atm, but i’d like to keep improving how i handle representation across my bots just in general.

I know in particular - as someone who's autistic - I've personally seen some "representation" before in bots on this site that was just incredibly stereotypical and offensive, and I do not ever want to be that person :')

So I'm looking for some feedback on what cultures / communities / backgrounds or just general lived experiences (mental health, specific circumstances to grow up in, literally whatever) people would like to see represented more - and any stereotypes they don't ever want to see. This is a completely open suggestion form, so answers can be as broad or specific and as serious or casual as you like - whatever comes to mind. Answers are anonymous.

TL;DR: if you have literally any real life experience that you've ever wished you saw in bots more or anything that's pissed you off anywhere, please answer! It's a very short poll and I'll share the results with any other creators.

I'll post the results in catnip cove for anyone to see when they've had a little time to cook, so give that a little visit if you're a bot creator who'd also like to see them :)

thank you for reading! <3

To specify again: this is for representation, NOT bot tropes or fetishes you like. Please stop putting fetishes in this poll I have other polls for that 😭
