Description Not one bit.


Firstly to begin, let me tell you this: I use the term "doll" figuratively with these because those crappy "dolls" I speak of, are not really, well, "dolls" and they are an embarrassment on this site to deviant dollers who make real dolls given effort and care like any art should be, made with any medium, in any style, on your own being or in collaboration.

Like these ones.


But it describes the deviations I frequent on the front page of dA, Digital Dolls and Digital Art/Pixel Art that are usually the green apple splatters shat and scribble and paint bucket puked on what is some traced fail shit Lucky Star or Vocaloid fanart manga kawaiidesukun, raped of innocence beyond any repair in MSPaint in about five seconds minutes real time. They're abominations that are not dolls or doll templates/base in any way shape or form.

Now furthermore, I do not speak of skill level here because what occurs with dollers who are trying to learn is they would post beginners work to search for outlets, feedback and help. They are not afraid to make use of tutorials to learn. They do not post all of their "practice work" They do not post UTTER SHIT here that looks like it's been drawn with feet because they are "BORED" or "RAND(U)OM(B)"

There's much war on dA over certain situations involving the doll community
"What is a doll?"
"What is a template/base?"
"What is pixel art?"
"What are dolls, bases, pixels used for?"
"Are dolls all collaborationss? Are they fashion or character design work? Are they montages?"

"Who are dollers ? What makes you one?"

Many deviants are horrifically off and misinformed of dolls because of these. I can't blame a few people here and there who have a misconception due to what's being shoved into these categories. As so long it does not turn into a "my medium or style is holy ought thou" battle then I will give them real information and answer their questions. I'll answer yours too, so don't be afraid to ask them. I won't bite you.

This dArama disgusts me so much that at times I don't want to look far and wide on this site. I do not want to post among the turmoil on this site. There is so much I don't post here because of that.
Hey, I obviously still love the deviant dollers and dA with all my heart after all; I wouldn't leave this place. If it were safe and easy as it had been in the golden years of dolling then I'd have a doll site to work on too; I would be half there and dA. It would sure help! As of right now that isn't possible until I'd find a host that were reliable and secure for myself and visitors.

I think I've spoken enough here for general understandment, right?
Do you need visuals? Go here: [link] since there are those days that I can't even find a single "doll" in the dolls cat on the first page. Go ahead and try it!

What is going through the thinking pan of these people who submit these, I'll never know it. I am in fact terrified to know the truth.

Oh look! It's a PLZ. If you don't have a sub then you can also use the PLZ.

In which way do you mean? I've read a lot of your posts and you seem frustrated about a few close to the same problems I always have.

Ok.
It can be difficult to interpret a voice in some instances. I was slightly worried you or anyone would find I was coming off a little too harsh, especially since you endeavor to spread prosperity to all of our dollers here, and you are very gentle about it.

I know for a fact that I can get so overemotional and lose my composure when I express my frustrations -over dollhood specifically-.

Much changes in a year.
I used to be more hasty about these problems and it was probably all from loneliness.
They still don't amuse me tho.

Well I think the best is to have at least one person to vent to, also I have had the same issue and I still do. More recently what I started doing is when I go to post something that I know I am upset about I will type it all, no holding back then read it and think of how it can be perceived by different people, as well as what I can do to make it the most effective and least offensive because I am not always good with wording things so I get my point across rather then get blocked out. Sorry for the long comment, just wanted to share

Maybe we could chat via note or something?

You did come off harsh, but I read it with disappointment and anger mostly. But we have to express ourselves somehow right?!

*shudders* I remember having a convo with a friend about a year ago abut these things. Dx

Some people can make some pretty cool dolls and such.

But then there's people who make templates for others to color in and... Pffttt. I don't wanna think about it.

I would give you a link to some terrible edits, but I don't want you to go blind.

Oh dear Trust me, what you have seen that you believe is the worst and what I have seen that I think is the worst there's still high probability that there's always a step further down worse than those combined. It may be part of the reason I keep losing sense of sight; it also might be the headdesks that occur to blame.
I saw front page DD cat this morning and it was enough torture for today.
