People on DA don't even bother to read your profile. I said I don't take requests in my ID and people often send me a note asking: "do you accept requests?"
And when I posted the WIP of the Nero model, a user commented with: "can I have the link, please?"
I think someone doesn't actually know that "WIP" means "work in progress" .__. or maybe they don't even read the full title. They just see the model picture and go all "iifhewqfh0efhwghwgh OMGOMG I WANT IT!!!!"
And they don't even read descriptions. My friend often posts pictures about Mass Effect with Garrus and her OC female character and she ALWAYS states that she's not a Shepard but just an original character she created.
The 80% of the comments: "ohhh your femshep is beautiful! I wish we had that hairstyle in the game too!"
I have a ME OC too that I'm going to introduce on DA... and I am afraid she will be mistaken for a Shepard XD
