tbh i maintain that a huge reason the RL community is bigger than the animanga one is that RL has better resources for finding FCs. most of my FC usage is RL for that reason.

like idk i prefer animanga from an aesthetic standpoint, but i can't deny that if two identical sites have an "fcs must be 18+" rule, and the only difference is what kind of FC they use, i'm joining the RL one every single time. it's less work on me to find a good FC when the FC directories for RL are sorted by age, gender, and race, and there are a million of them to choose from.
I maintain that a big part of the problem is that our community has a serious problem with sharing and gatekeeping, and the lack of reliable resources for fcs is a symptom of that problem. Everyone is expected to pay for everything or make it themselves, but not everyone has that ability. I have an immense icon collection that I’d love to share, but I get lambasted bc I don’t have sources for all of them bc they’re over 13 years old and I don’t want to be accused of stealing. In fact, I’ve been told by people here that if I can’t source said art that I should just not use it at all- which I think is ridiculous considering some of my resources are again, literally untraceable now. I’ve tried. But I have no problem with crediting art when I can!

But it’s just not always possible anymore if the artist has been ripped and it’s impossible to find the original artist. I’ve considered turning my collection of icons (and when I say a lot I mean like tens of thousands) into an archive for people to use freely; but I’m not sure I want to deal with being accused of theft bc I’m a collector, even if I don’t claim that the original works are mine.

Wondering if I should just scrap Neo and scoot it over to jcink 😔
Jcink supremacy tbh. Especially with how shite v6 is going to be, it might be worth your time to do so.

I kind of wish I had the time and spoons available to run a resource site because I'd love to set one up for animal roleplays specifically, despite the general consensus that they're dying out I see new ones pop up all the time, it'd be cool to have a set place for them I think
do you know how many times i've considered taking commissions for warriors sites? lmao

but yes it would be cool, though i don't know how active it would be (or how active it would need to be really)

One of my students at work made me a card of a skull singing happy birthday “but in a death metal way” and I don’t think I’ve ever received a better card tbh

not to basically double post but a band i like had been caught up in a scandal recently bc their douchebag lead singer had made some aggressively transphobic (and just horrible comments in general) comments. and for once, the band actually held the dude accountable and fired his ass. he found out on social media LMAO
