Are you sure this was shipping?

If you notice too people have good chemistry and think they'd be good together, that's not shipping. That's matchmaking.

If you wrote fanfic about them or started a sub/seperate page where you talked about how they should be together... then you are a RPS scum. That doesn't sound accurate in this case.

Naw I think it counts as shipping. I mean, isn't "notice two people have good chemistry and think they'd be good together" the basis for all ships ever (mostly)?

[insanenoodlyguy]

Hmmm, maybe. But I'm still not sure if it's RPS if you actually know the people.

[(Anonymous)]

Pretty sure OP doesn't actually know these two people...

[(Anonymous)]

DA - so the question is, did the OP actually know these two? I mean, there's "two people I know of who frequent the same fandom I do," and then there's "two people I'm actually familiar with." By your definition, I think the former falls into "shipping" while the latter falls into "matchmaking."

Then again, my old RP group claimed to ship me and my partner before we actually got together (and would backtrack with "j/k!" when they realized that we weren't), so I'm not unused to seeing "I ship you two!" as a geeky shorthand for "I think you two would be cute together!"

[insanenoodlyguy]

Yeah see, that's the vibe I'm getting. People who are at least talking to each other occasionally don't really fall in the same category to me as folks that look at strangers (famous or not, usually the former) and do the same. Then blog about it.

I tend to call that "shipping" too but I see it differently from RPF, like Noodly. I don't think it's a big deal. That's basically what I came here to say - saying "person X and person Y would make such a cute couple!" isn't creepy. Writing fic about person X and Y would be crossing a line.

[(Anonymous)]

I think it's only matchmaking if you actually try to get them together, which may be less creepy than RPF, but can also be more annoying.
