Looking for artist (30 in the Top 100 Popular Novels) Unpaid

[powerplantanimations]

And I want it to stop hurting people. It's not an excuse. Again, I'm sorry. The fact that you're even still saying stuff like "I don't use it as an excuse to mistreat others" and it's not an excuse, it's context there is a different.

Okay? Then what exactly do you bring on the table if she can do all the work by herself?

[powerplantanimations]

She can't that's the thing. She has similar issues as me. That comic she drew was from years ago in Japan. She was burnt out and can't draw anymore and has difficulties finding time to write.

The reason we posted it on this site was because we used it for characters in our new book and I write all of the material for her because we just wanna share both our experiences (with her overseeing and going into depth about what or what not to do).

I dunno why you immediatly thought exploitation of the genre or why your brain went there. She can't advertise like she used to, so I have to keep the ball rolling.

Are you alright man? I know yeah y'know, I was the one to have that freak out, but you man...

You talk about me being cranky, buddy there's people with Tapas Originals that do GL that seem to remember you... not in a good way either

" But the last time I remember and was vocal about you was a few weeks ago when you tried to exploit the GL genre for your own selfish reasons instead of working on a project that was genuine for the love of that genre."

I don't even remember this, but it's like... is everything okay for you? . And whenever I see the likes with comments like this you're always there. I know I shouldn't let people living rent free but it does feel like I'm living rent free in your head for whatever reason.

My first tip for most of these forum threads is to start taking it to private DMs as your AD has now gone completely off topic and prob not gonna get the eyes on it that you want I would stop having the argument all together or make a new thread and maybe also just don't respond to people that you don't agree with to help keep threads on topic

[powerplantanimations]

Yeah that's a good point but for whatever reason the moderators aren't taking this thread down after I sent tickets so might as well use this as an opportunity to clear up whatever tf is happening here until then. I don't know why there's a feature where you can just... delete your comments as soon as possible. It seems a bit goofy for me to keep responding like this but again y'know... might as well explain wtf happened.

Especially now people are bringing up how they think I'm taking advantage of a genre and potentially spreading that misinformation around.

I do appreciate your response though lmao

[PapaDom]

Are you done? Cause it felt like you've been editing the same post for like 20 times or so.

Look, that you're helping her is a genuine reason and that's good.

I dunno why you immediatly thought exploitation of the genre or why your brain went there.

It's shit like this:

You made it sound like if people want to get tons of subs, they should exploit the GL genre. That's not okay at all. Same with any other genre that's doing well. How should've I or anybody else know that you're helping your co-writer if you just go around an show your numbers and stuff.

You talk about me being cranky, buddy there's people with Tapas Originals that do GL that seem to remember you... not in a good way either

Oh yeah? Which one? I can't remember any since I never interacted with them and the other way around as well. If you know somebody who's upsetti with me, do me the favor and tell them they should talk to me in the DMs if there are any and not you making shit up.

I don't even remember this, but it's like... is everything okay for you? . And whenever I see the likes with comments like this you're always there. I know I shouldn't let people living rent free but it does feel like I'm living rent free in your head for whatever reason.

Want me to be honest? You're not worth it remembering. I don't waste my time thinking about a guy like you the slightest because you're nothing to me. And that will stay. It's nice of you to twist my words against me but it won't work because it's useless coming from you.

[TAMAnnoying]

From my understanding you have to @ them directly or there has to be enough flags for them to respond (they also have to be awake) I'm not sure how many moderators we have or what their schedules are anymore so it could take time. But you should be able to ask for them to remove this one and start over if that's something you'd like

[powerplantanimations]

I asked a lot of them.

[powerplantanimations]

Oof man lmaooo

I didn't even come across this. "Good for her, Power to her, She definitely LOVES the genre, but do you do as well? Where is the passion? The love? The honesty in all that, if you just chase numbers by piggyback riding a better artist AGAIN? Y'know what you're making? Slop. Slop for people to consume just because it gets you numbers and not because of the love of it. Yes, people crave GL stories, but they want good ones and not slop that feels fake and dishonest."

Buddy, I do seem to be hitting some blip in your radar with "again"

And then this

"So let's talk about your stick-figure isekai:
I asked the 5 people I know who read your story (me included), and we all said it was hard to sit through because it was annoying. Personally speaking, I didn't like it because, besides the concept, it felt like you just relied on references all the time without any original Ideas by yourself. (Hey, look at that reference. Remember this reference? Want a reference to your reference? Is it a bird? Is it a plane? No. It’s a reference!)

So, let me tell you this: If you didn't improve since your last time and just made the same story with just ALL GIRLS ONLY, buddy, you're set for failure. And don't come back here crying, “UwU nobody reads my series because I have low view numbers and my sub count is still the same.”

And before anybody comes at me just because I ranted, here's my advice for OP:
Do what you love the most and connect a lot. And jump over your shadow sometimes, only if you want it and not because you're forced to do it."

MAAAAN. I didn't even see any of this

You say I'm not a blip on your radar, but I think you're lying. I totally am if you went through all of this. The fact that you went through all of this to read my comic, look up my friend, and then made a read only for you to like... no man... I don't know what's going I don't know what's causing all of this. It's like you have this whole "damaged artist" thing when really it seems like you're also letting intrusive thoughts win. What did you want to achieve with comments like that? It seems like you wanted to shake something up within' me or something or get me to change. It doesn't seem like I'm quite nothing. I personally think you remember the reactions I tend to get from years before if the "AGAIN" thing is brought up about.

I dunno what's with this forum specifically that just stirs something into people and makes them misread stuff.

[PapaDom]

I don't know why exactly you post a screenshot of my post and copy paste it here as well but whatev.

But thanks for the free views.

Man, you're projecting your own insecurities onto me. Do you do this with everyone who doesn't agree with you or points out the things that rub them the wrong way with your writing? Seriously, what kind of person does this? Or let me guess you want to be the better person in comparison between us, but every time you try to have the upper hand against me it just makes you look worse than it already were. You could call me a bitch and I could live with it since there will be some truth within that statement, but can it with you too? You should give it a rest before the damage control gets to a point where it's beyond help.

[GiveMeThatBread]

I think this thread should be locked @stiles

[powerplantanimations]

@GiveMeThatBread They won't for some reason.

[powerplantanimations]

I mean sure thanks for the free views also from the 4 other people I guess. I'm not projecting though, this has been an issue with a lot of people on the site. But yeh I'll stop with the damage control.

@TAMAnnoying @DiegoPalacios @ShidoDraws Again one last time, sorry this even happened.
