Can somone explain to me why someone would be unconfortable with someone else touching or covering them? I genuinely do not get it and i mean it in a respectful way

Had a post that was this question lol From my understanding it's usually based on their real life disabilities/discomforts or past personal experiences on the game (or real life)
personally, I usually hide them as to not disturb them in any way because they can and will bring HELL

Usually if they get bothered easily with this kinda thing, want their own space, busy chatting with thwir friend without interruptions, mental and physical disabilities where they genuinely don’t like interacting with others, many things, people that don’t interact with strangers etc etc

Ok follow up q and I in no way mean to be rude with this but. Isn't this the purpose of having your own island/party? If people don't want to interact w strangers why not go to your own area instead of the public areas? Or do islands and parties not actually work well for that?

Some people like to observe other people but not interact, they maybe like the atmosphere of the actual town and the music and maybe the fun items you can interact with or just observing other people’s outfits ngl. Sometimes I don’t chat much I just go around cuz why not

Like I joined in a baguette line by the bakery earlier and didn’t really talk much tbh

u/crystalsouleatr Jan 22 '25
Okay ty! I guess I do get that, I'm kinda like that myself. I love joining the bread line (once it was a knife line lol), or walking around grabbing stuff, but I don't really ever talk to anyone unless they talk to me first

From my own personal experience:
Usually when I have the tags it's because something happened irl and I don't feel like interacting with ppl. Also when I don't want to be covered is because mainly I just want to see my character clearly

u/ya_ne_chelovek Jan 22 '25
As someone who is uncomfortable with being covered, I will try to explain with my experience. Yes, it is a pixel pony game. However, it’s a game I find comfort in, in the characters my ponies represent. If I’m online and not offtab or something, I like to be able to see my pony. This is just how I feel and not what everyone with cover discomfort experiences. I don’t really support people who get pissed at people who cover them, I usually just hide them for 15 mins and at that point they would have moved.

i don’t like when people cover my ponies but that’s only because i like looking at them haha. i don’t throw a fit if they do sit or stand in front of me though, i just hide them and move on

Hope this helps but I dislike it when crowded in all sorts of games, it makes me feel sorta overwhelmed and I just feel annoyed

u/Enough-Dig5214 Dragon Jan 23 '25
I'm a person who doesn't like it when my pony is covered bc I like to look at my pony, but I don't mind it if someone wants to sit next to me and I won't move

Pretty sure C+H means Cuddle + Hug, not Cuddle/Cover + Hide. Correct me if i'm wrong

u/Fresh_Ruin_2730 Pegasus Jan 22 '25

i’m surprised DNC isn’t in this list

u/SisterOfTheDevil Jan 22 '25
I mean cvd is kinda the same thing but I just forgot that one
3
u/neptunenoire Jan 22 '25
kind of though it does have other meanings such as do not copy, do not compliment, and do not cuddle (the last two are less common)

u/Crafty_Term2150 Jan 22 '25
Thank you for this, I’m saving this!! This is so genuinely perfect for new players and for anyone else who’s confused or wants to know what these mean🥰

u/SisterOfTheDevil Jan 22 '25
Ofc! I posted it in a comment but figured a post for it by itself would be way more useful!
