Oh sweet, more reason to actually use the site.
-
Awesome!
-
\o/
-
Huzzah! I'm already following you here, though I doubt I'll actually remember to check this site regularly unless FA goes down. XD
-
Make a change!
-
Faaaaar too lazy. Even with the exodus on FA i still get almost 100x more views there than here. Perhaps once the crickets start chatting... :3
-
Change starts with you! Just because people visit a giant steaming pile of shite, doesn't mean it isn't a giant, stinking pile of shite :3
-
But for someone who needs feedback, even if just numerical, it makes a difference. XD
-
Then work on getting those numbers elsewhere. It's a simple concept. But You have to want to make a change. If you are fine sitting on top of a pile of shite that just happens to have a shitload of people on it, then you won't ever leave it. If you want to get off and stop stinking of shite, then you will try to get the other people off the pile with you and start anew.
So... are you content on a pile of shite? :3
-
When your gallery and numbers have taken almost 5-6 years to even reach 1k watchers, It isn't as simple as "start over. You'll be fine." Compound that with people not wanting to leave and how little exposure written work gets elsewhere (besides sf, my secondary gallery), the incentive to leave is extremely low beyond that self-gratification of being a "superior site," as arguable as that is. Until FA goes down for good, and people atr forced to pick their poison, I doubt anywhere else will be much more than an afterthought.
That being said I'll probably pop on every six months or so and drop one or two of my favorite pieces on these tertiary sites, but reuploading and starting over is a sure no-go.
-
Though I get a bit passionate sometimes, I realize it doesn't work for everyone. I'm not saying you should never use it again, just saying that putting all of your eggs into a basket made of flammable fertilizer and expecting that fire to never spark is not the best idea.
It's not starting over, it's opening up other opportunities.
I'll just leave this here and wish you the best. ^^

True, but every site has their Drama. I mean, FN's only been out for like a few months now and there's already discussions about it and BD's whatsits, IB has the cub thing, Nabyn is... is it still a thing? and goodness, being excluded from the Weasyl beta for so long prompted me to just grab my name for the first year or two. Each site has its problems, and I'm sure the longer you become inundated with the site, the more you start to notice them - like being a 7 year TF2 vet - the game was amazing at first, but now all I think is how they really should balance some things better.
And traffic is one thing, but for someone who posts mostly personal stuff, there are no specials to give or incentives for people to watch me other places. Y'know? So I just stay where there's interaction. :3
-
There is a difference between drama and both lying about having passwords hashed and salted, and then having to recode things that should have been fixed years ago because people got hold of source code. Not to mention all previous shady business.
There is a second entry linked in that one for social media/non-commercial posting.
Weasyl has been open since 2012 at least, so I am not sure what you mean by being excluded, unless you excluded yourself?
If I am wasting my time talking to you about this, do let me know. I'd rather spend effort on people that actually plan to take action than ones who will constantly make excuses and never do anything about the problem.
-
I'd say you're wasting your time, but this is the most interaction I've gotten here since I joined. XD

Good, good...

Nice to see you around here~ :3
-
Hope you stick around!
-
Yay, more lewds~
-
Well, Weasyl isn't that bad. Hopefully people will start using it properly. Alas, Tumblr too is a good choice.
-
I like this site, not sure if I'll be more active here or FN though. Time will tell!
-
Sounds like a plan, as more people start to move on here a bit more as FA seems to have screwed up so much lately.
I'm also trying to be as active on here, DA and other places -
Good to have you here!

Sorry I havent been louder, but yeah. I really really adore your work, regardless of subject matter, and.. often because of the subject matter, too <3
