Is it rude if anyone seeking fic recs not specific to any ship adds an addendum: “No XYZ ship, please, or no ship involving such and such character, please!”

I have been wondering, ngl. There are people who don’t have a main OTP and are open to reading fics centred on multiple pairings, but there are certain ships or characters they don’t vibe with and want to avoid reading.

If anyone makes a post: Rec me the fluffiest or smuttiest fics or stories with great worldbuilding, and then go on to add: No ‘insert ship name’ ship please.”

Shippers, will you feel offended?

In my opinion, as a Tomarry and Drarry shipper, if someone posts here asking for general slash recs and then says, "No Tomarry or Drarry, please," I admit I won’t take it personally.

As long as no one is bashing, I feel it completely natural for someone to have a NOTP, or rather characters they don’t want to see in a romantic context.
