If this belongs in the “Cafe Society” board, my deepest apologies. I wasn’t really sure.
Anyhow, my question pertains to the character descriptions of the puppets from Sesame Street and/or The Muppet Show. If you’d be kind enough to place the name of a character next to the “general mood” that he/she/it would be best suited, I’d greatly appreciate it. Thanks!
Whether it’s in GQ or Cafe, could you provide a little more explanation of why you want your fellow dopers to match up a list of more than 125 character traits?
Definitely the wrong forum because there isn’t a factual answer here is there? If you’re expecting a poll perhaps it could go in IMHO, otherwise Café Society seems best. If you mail a Moderator you could ask for the duplicate thread to be closed while they’re at it.
I’m also interested as to why you want to know (generally we don’t use the SDMB for homework questions).
The reason I would like to know what traits would best correspond to which character is because I need to get pictures that will go with the “mood” for my website (ahem, live journal). It’s nothing too important, and I didn’t expect anyone to singularly go through all of them. But, since I know the bare minimum about both shows, any help would be better than what I know now.
Could I suggest you go with a show that you know better? It would reflect your personality better, which is, after all, the point of a LiveJournal, I believe.
I wouldn’t recommend that either, because it would count as cross-posting, which is frowned on. Don’t worry if you already have, I’m sure they’ll cut some slack for a newbie.
A better plan is to look at the top of the forum page. You’ll see it says:
(Moderated by: bibliophage, DrMatrix, manhattan)
Clicking on one of the Moderators’ names there calls up a screen with info about that person and there’ll be a link on that page to let you send an e-mail. Briefly explain the situation and ask to have the thread moved to the right forum.
It appears obvious that what you want to do is assign images of Muppets & Sesame Street characters to the LJ mood icons. As you may know, this board, which is owned by a publisher, is a pretty strong advocate for protecting the intellectual property rights of others.
I am not a moderator, but when one comes along he or she may conclude that what you are doing is asking for assistance in infringing the copyright or tradmark held in those characters and in a way that violates the rules of this message board. If that happens, the moderator may decide to close the thread.
