Face casting is when people match characters to pre-existing models, actors and other celebrities!

It is generally pretty harmless, but it’s been the source of some pretty significant drama in the past on this blog and the easiest way for it not to be is to just not put anon face casts on the channel!

I have zero problems with folks face casting for themselves or enjoying them on their blog or with friends etc. They just don’t happen publicly here.

It’s not dumb at all! And not everyone does it. I’m someone who doesn’t do it (and whose image of a character can be sometimes permanently impacted by someone’s facecast and not always in a positive way - though it’s not always negative either!)

Everyone’s face casts are awesome and valid though, especially if they make reading and connecting to the characters more enjoyable. :D
