First off, this is my journal with my opinion, so if you disagree, that is ok. But if you come at me with negativity, we are gonna have an issue.
So, I have been seeing these "adoptable" characters all over FA for a while now. And I dont like it. They are for people who dont seem to have enough imagination to think up their own characters, and it really sad. And artists know its true, because I have had friends of mine who sell adoptables who have admitted to me that its an easy way to sell made up shit to uncreative people to get some cash. Its awful. I, for one, have always been of the school of thought that your characters, and most importantly your Fursona, were extensions of yourself. Adoptables seem to cheapen the whole thing, if you ask me. But, whatever. This is just my opinion and by no means the only right answer.
