  1. Drawfag drama
  2.  
  3. (14:54:41) +fsdfdsf: I hope I see kami or kdel today cause I want to talk to them about the draw thread situation
  4. (14:58:37) +AoC: better have a strong proposal prepared
  5. (15:00:40) +fsdfdsf: Well the last time we talked about it kami thought having them take a break was a good idea but he wanted to talk to kdel about it, I don't know if that ever happened though. Either way something needs to be done, the threads are a disaster of people upset that certain characters are being drawn all the time and incoherent rage over requests people don't like.
  6. (15:02:32) +fsdfdsf: I haven't read that full thread in /q/ yet but I see the suggestion of a draw board, I don't think I like that though.
  7. (15:04:00) +RapeApe9k: a draw board would suck OC out of all other boards
  8. (15:04:11) +fsdfdsf: That's my view as well
  9. (15:04:19) +RapeApe9k: what are they doing that's so problematic?
  10. (15:04:32) +RapeApe9k: just a case of 'stop liking what i don't like' writ large?
  11. (15:05:08) +AoC: in /vg/, we have people spamming waifu requests and complains about high nsfw standards for deletion
  12. (15:05:25) +AoC: as for /a/, it's claims of circlejerk and that their requests are not getting filled
  13. (15:05:32) +fsdfdsf: Well majority of the time my reports are mostly drawfag reports. Pretty much people make requests and people claim that certain characters are being done more than others, to the point that some started a blacklist he's trying to get the drawfags to adhere to. Plus all the shit posting /v/ posters who come to the /a/ draw threads requesting video game characters.
  14. (15:05:44) +AoC: so the threads end up being 85+% drama instead of content
  15. (15:06:08) +fsdfdsf: yep
  16. (15:06:22) +AoC: I find that last claim laughable though, /v/ has their drawfag fridays
  17. (15:06:23) +fsdfdsf: And I can't just start deleting requests becuse people dont' like them
  18. (15:06:32) +fsdfdsf: That's not right
  19. (15:06:53) +fsdfdsf: They do though, they come to /a/ draw threads and request video game characters
  20. (15:06:55) +fsdfdsf: I've seen it
  21. (15:07:24) +AoC: isn't it more possible that it's regular people that like videogames rather than full board userbase invasion?
  22. (15:07:37) +VCR_Working: it's definitely a possibility
  23. (15:07:44) +VCR_Working: actually it's kinda true
  24. (15:07:49) +fsdfdsf: I didn't say full board invasion, but there are requests and that is a possiblity
  25. (15:07:58) +VCR_Working: there's a few people on #drawfriends who req vidya charas
  26. (15:08:19) +fsdfdsf: I think that /a/ draw threads should be /a/ related
  27. (15:08:31) +fsdfdsf: No video games since they have their own draw threads on /vg/ and /v/
  28. (15:08:42) +VCR_Working: it's fair
  29. (15:08:42) +AoC: as for /vg/, I think it'd be best to look the other way for nsfw unless it turns into nothing but porn request/delivery
  30. (15:08:44) +VCR_Working: i agree
  31. (15:08:55) +VCR_Working: with that too
  32. (15:09:07) +fsdfdsf: I look the other way on NSFW content on /a/, I believe deleting it stifles creativity
  33. (15:09:15) +fsdfdsf: In the draw threads I mean
  34. (15:09:27) +VCR_Working: it's when it gets out of hand
  35. (15:09:40) +VCR_Working: like with bb...
  36. (15:09:57) +fsdfdsf: Yea bb was a problem
  37. (15:10:02) +AoC: as for the topic limitation, I disagree. Every drawfag/OC thread in each board has a separate culture determined by shared experience and board's userbase. To draw lines on topic alone would force an artist to lurk different boards according to the piece
  38. (15:10:37) +fsdfdsf: BB went to /vg/ and I'm guessing a lot of the drawfags jump between board
  39. (15:10:50) +fsdfdsf: Maybe I'm wrong though
  40. (15:11:20) +VCR_Working: really
  41. (15:11:32) +VCR_Working: the real problem stands with the drama stirrers
  42. (15:11:54) +VCR_Working: i've suggested in the channel that the threads take a break but they aren't biting quite yet
  43. (15:11:57) +fsdfdsf: I agree and it's both sides which is why I don't want to pick a side and start deleting
  44. (15:12:10) +VCR_Working: but they have been acknowledging that the threads have been... less than adequate
  45. (15:12:27) +fsdfdsf: Well that's progress
  46. (15:12:28) +AoC: the issue is that the break would have to be a concerted effort and publicly agreed on
  47. (15:12:29) +Kazisho: Was just trying to clear this thread, OP wasn't even trying to make this porn related: https://archive.foolz.us/v/thread/162101527#162102787
  48. (15:12:43) +fsdfdsf: True AoC
  49. (15:12:53) +VCR_Working: yeah
  50. (15:12:53) +AoC: otherwise you get OC Drain when the drawfags start using another board as a bunker
  51. (15:12:59) +AoC: dragging all the issues with them
  52. (15:13:43) +fsdfdsf: I think a mod needs to step in for sure though, at least to try and settle some of the issues and lay down some clear ground rules
  53. (15:13:46) +VCR_Working: yeah
