Is Furaffinity Still Worth It?
3 years ago
Does anyone feel like Furaffinity just isn't right these days for some reason(s)?
I mean the site and the community just doesn't feel inviting lately. It feels very volatile, callous, and uptight.
Yeah I know, I've gone on about the whole "The art community is volatile and NOBODY wants to acknowledge it!" spiel before but it just still seems to linger over the site.
It feels like more people are in a bad mood more often then not since there's just so much drama on this site and I'm still getting blocked out of nowhere, even by people I happened to be watching!
Like all I did was fave these people's pictures and watch them and now they're blocking me. WHY? Now I can't fave more of their pictures.
Also I see a lot "comment hidden by page owner" marks which shows some bad drama went on.
It feels like the community is tearing itself apart more or less and it's sad. People aren't gonna want to come here and leave their positive mark on the art world if they're just going to get yelled at, blocked or even worse.
The site in terms of real social interaction will be reduced eventually to a purely business sense. As in go in, buy commission, ych's, pay per views, etc. and that's it.
I just don't feel like coming here sometimes. I know there's good people and stuff here and I got to persevere but it's just been really draining over the years having to deal with bad people here and there.
It's seems like a lot of artists have the "Guilty until proven innocent." Like they treat you like your an asshole until you prove otherwise and that just isn't fair.
I think people should be treated accordingly not just be assumed to be one way or the other right off the bat.
So anyways, what you do guys think?
