Re: Character Adoption Addicts Anonymous - v.4 ~~ New thread

Postby grisly bear » Mon Oct 29, 2012 1:06 pm

We've discussed this before. :T Humans are selfish, and unless something interests us we won't reply to it. Yes, it's kind to say -something- when someone posted, but we aren't all going to. Besides, always hearing "wow cute character" gets mildly irritating. I think the big problem here is that people just post their characters or just answer questions, rather than trying to get involved. All of us are at fault here, so don't even attempt to say that you always reply (I know all of us here have ignored a post before, most likely multiple posts). If you want a change be the change. Make things happen. Ask questions, describe why you like the design instead of just "oh cute design".

Has anyone ever made a video using art of their character and a song they thought fit the character?
Eeyup. PM me if you want a link to it, and I'd really appreciate if I could get some feedback on it.
So excited! Getting my first Kiamara in a month because of train. and .Blue.'s breeding!!! <333

But that's something too. People post their characters to show them, so isn't natural for that to happen?

Except some of us seem to only post characters and art. Which results in a few compliments, maybe a question about who made the art. Nothing more.

No, though I'd love to see some you guys have done.

And I never said I reply to everyone. ;m; That's physically impossible since I'm not on 24/7. Did anyone actually say that?

Honestly, I trust you guys a lot. That's why it really bothers me to see the rules broken so often.

Off-topicness isn't up to our jurisdiction. What the board admins deem as spam, is spam. And if we don't steer clear of those definitions, the thread is liable to be locked.

No, but if you can't reply to everyone not everyone can be replied to. It's as simple as that.
Of course some people will be ignored, but not constantly.

Okay, I agree with this post. And as one of the people who mainly posts new art here and sometimes interacts I gotta say Ellis has a good point about general participation among members and getting more involved yourselves.

There are a lot of people in this group. And I speak from experience when I say having 2+ posts in a row being ignored it hurts my feelings. When someone says, "wow! Cute character!" And that's the only reply I get, I LOVE it. I love any feedback I get. And I'm not naming any names, but there are some very popular people on this thread who get a lot more attention than others. And that hurts feelings as well..
