A GUIDE TO CENSORING ON &RPS/RPF TWT
Hello Luné! Welcome to a simple guide to censoring for the &RPS/RPF community.Aside from the usual group censoring (like &T instead of &TEAM), it's also important to censor their names when talking about ships publicly to avoid the members or non-RPS fans finding RPS tweets when searching on Twitter. This can be through the use of emojis, nicknames or sseobang (Korean search prevention) names!Though you are not required to follow this guide, RPS censoring is a common phenomenon across K-Pop RPS fandoms including &RPS and it is considered common courtesy in our fandom to censor ship/idol names for the above reasons.Here are the different ways of censoring the members' names:
| ♥ | Nickname | Sseobang name | Emoji |
|---|---|---|---|
| EJ | jju, ej | 쭈 (jju) | 🍊 |
| Fuma | fum, hum | 훔 (hum) | 🎮🦸 |
| K | kei, keng | 켕 (keng) | 👑 |
| Nicholas | nik, nc | 닉/닠 (nik), 네코 (neko) | 🍓 |
| Yuma | yum | 윰 (yum) | 🐈🐱 |
| Jo | jyo | 죠 (jyo) | 🍙🍚 |
| Harua | rung, hr | 룽 (rung) | 🐰 |
| Taki | tak, tk | 탘 (tak) | 🐥 |
| Maki | mak, mk | 맠 (mak) | 🐶 |
Sseobang names typically have the first name being the 'left' or the 'top' and the second name being the 'right' or the 'bottom'. '닉쭈' or 'nikjju' means that Nicholas is the left, and Euijoo is the right; '쭈네코' or 'jjuneko' means the opposite. Using a member's name on either side of another member's name suggests there is switching/no defined dynamic.For example: 🍊🍓/ 🍓🍊
EJ (left) + Nicholas (right) = 쭈네코 (jjuneko)
Nicholas (left) + EJ (right) = 닉쭈 (nikjju)
ncej (dynamic non-specific)
JNJ (both switch) = 쭈닉쭈 (jjunikjju)Knowing sseobang names will help you not only censor any tweets you write yourself but also find fan content of ships you enjoy especially from K-Luné, who will define ship contents more strictly by left-right dynamics. I-Luné are less strict about left/right dynamics, but do your best to use sseobang correctly if you choose to do so; if you use sseobang to refer to a ship irrespective of left/right dynamics you may confuse potential readers into misunderstanding the ship dynamic you're portraying.Other common examples:
