i told sir ovens scp-1025 and asked him to look into it

later did the same thing

when is it considered that your forcing someone to look into it.

and when is it considered pestering someone?

(i also told him to make a profile of scp-3922. and then asked him a couple of times if he could do it) (i apologized don't worry, though i apologized again, because i was specifically meaning forced. and he didn't read that in the original apology, i did bring that up but not explicitly. so that's why i re apologized.)

so when is it considered forcing someone to do something

and when is it considered pestering? (is it considered pestering, if you just tell someone/remind someone every once in a while?)

and is it considered forcing (if your bringing it up/asking them to do it every once in a while. (i'm not saying asking them to do another thing) i'm asking basically, telling someone to make something or look into something. they don't do it/forget about it and then you come back every so often and remind them basically)


i'm bringing this up because i want to avoid forcing/pestering people to do things.

and basically know when it is considered either.

(and how can i still remind people of something or tell them to do something again (not something new, just the thing i kept on telling them) without pestering/forcing them)

Forcing someone means to make them do something against their will, I don't think you can do that even if you try here (don't try lol).
Pestering is if you ask someone to do something again and again until they're annoyed. I personally ask someone once for help, if they respond cool, if not then I just leave them alone, but if I need a specific someone or something urgently then I ask more than once but not make it repetitive so as to annoy the person so ask but not very frequently.

i just feel like my 1025 is urgent because while not doing is not the end of the world.

i feel like i'm not good at profile making and i need peer review.

also fluffy. if something is not urgent. can you ask them every so often without pestering them or is it still pestering?

eh I'd just call a knowledgeable member and wait, if they don't respond I'd just call someone else, I don't think it's that urgent but you can call the same person twice as long as you know you aren't annoying them.

You can but you should probably stop if you do it multiple times and the person clearly not respond, I personally am socially awkward so I have trouble asking the same person for the same thing over again.
