⚝ Probably a silly question buuuut... what do the symbols under chitts mean? I understand the "like" one (I've watched enough shows to know that one!) but the other three are a mystery and someone keeps "hating" my posts... Does that mean they don't like me? :( ⚝
D --> It is an extrapolation on quadrants, but think of it kind of like a thumbs up and thumbs down on human media. A heart can be a thumbs up, a spades is a thumbs down. Diamond is so-so? Similar to the heart but more in a friendly acknowledgement way? But it is also used to like a post. Clubs tends to be used for confusion, or to denote concern.
⚝ Quadrants? I'm a bit out of my depth so an explanation would be WONDERFUL! :D ⚝
D --> This is correct. There are different connotations for diamond, as it aligns with moirailship. It's a pity for a reason, but it's still a positive gesture.
⚝ That's good to know!! Is the diamond more of a friendly thing while the heart is like.. loveydovey? ⚝
:33 < AABSOLUTELY my dear! :33 < It can be a little tricky to translate it properly over into human terms, but the HEART stands for something close to what you know as romantic attraction and all of the good stuff that comes with it! So when someone LIKES something, they really do like it! :33 < For the DIAMOND, that aligns with our concept of MOIRAILS! Think of them like... platonic soulmates! One k33ping the other in check! So when someone reacts with a PITY on your post, they can either empathize with you, or... actually pity you! It can be a little hard to tell sometimes, but ultimately it is still considered positive! :33 < I already explained a little on when someone HATES your post, that they often do mean it! And for us, in that case, SPADES leads to our kismesises! This is a heated rivalry and borderline actual hatred but there's still some attachment there! :33 < Aand lastly, the CLUBS! When someone MEDIATES your post, they act much like an auspistice, or somebody who often will mediate betw33n two locked in a kismesis to ensure that they don't go overboard! So when someone MEDIATES you, it's likely because they're trying to say "WOOAH! Hold your horses there!"
⚝ That's really fascinating! So what sign would be appropriate to react to this post with? Because I REALLY appreciate the information (thank you btw!!) but I wouldn't want to send mixed messages? ⚝
:33 < H33h33! Don't worry! I wouldn't entirely classify the reactions here as fully aligning with the quads one-to-one, plus it would be CRAZY if someone were to be trying to facilitate a matespritship through solely reacts alone! So, to show a positive reaction overall you are fr33 to LIKE it! :DD
:33 < Of course!! Happy to be of service! ;33
