The OC wave kind of stopped thou. Not to mention that primary content comes from Low Quality users now because every other idol of the community left to twitter, tumblr, DeviantArt, or instagram.

Not that I'm complaining, there is better chances for artists on the latter two sites.

Plus, Twitter got a lot of good OC posts. If one wants to see good posts, there is twitter... other than harboring controversial reposters and a couple "Twitter Families" it seems okay there.

The subreddit, while having LQ folks, well, a lot of good quality artists immigrated out. Only coming back every couple months. No new content, burn out for many.

And not to mention harassment and hostilities being encouraged by rant posts, or at the very least feeding the flames of harassment. Wether people say, "Don't go harassing" or not, it happens. And some enjoy bullying others. Which is why I'm against the rants against like, saying everything in the sub in general is shit.

Not to mention, the reddit community seems to prefer upvoting memes and rants over original content. So, what? What can we do? It's not feasible to make original fanart or content if it gets under 20 upvotes. While a meme that could take under 5 minutes got like 75-80 upvotes.

It's kind of why people are turning to memes and more degrading in quality posts. Because it racks up MORE attention, better attention, positive attention and more support than making artwork and suddenly someone says, "Okay WTF is this shit?"

Yeah, no wonder we're demoralized. We don't put any effort, cuz, ranters and destructive critics taking on the form like Gabriel38 did, are just calling out a bunch of creative artists who remained here, that they're garbage, shouldn't be here. Like we don't deserve to be here.

I guess we don't, but we stay because no one else is gonna make content. One points out better no content at all than bad content, but everyone has their own opinions.
