Welcome new followers + plans for the future by ManaPuddingFox

First off, wanted to thank all my new followers for watching! Glad to see more of you over here on Weasyl! I hope you enjoy this site as I have been!

Second, due to everything that is happening I am in the middle of evaluating what will become of my FA account and Weasyl account. How do I feel about the matter? Seeing that a one liner journal I posted on FA about how angry it makes me that people use "drama" in place of "issue" resulted in two people flipping their shit at me and others in the journal comments, I will not be posting it. All you have to know if that I don't agree with a lot of things that are happening in the land of FA.

Currently, I post to both Weasyl and FA the same except Weasyl also gets doodles and human art. Yea! Human art! Did you know I draw humans? Well you'll see it here too since I won't be terrified at being "ew'ed" at! Well, I might be, but of well~ Anyway~ I will be putting more energy into Weasyl. I will start to look for people I watch on FA who are over here and if I watch them on both sites, will comment and fav stuff of their's here.

In the future? I don't know yet. I did type it out before but erased it. With what happened on that FA journal (when I didn't even bring up if I was leaving, it was asked- then my indecision was cause for someone to flip shit) I don't feel like having more people pissed off at me for my own decision. So I am not up for posting what will happen yet. Again, I am in evaluation mode. Please understand, I am a slow motherfucker when it comes to decisions.

I wanted to end this with good news though! Once I am done with some things that need to get done, I will be opening commissions EXCLUSIVELY FIRST HERE for a special icon commission I have planned~ What could it be? Oh I wonder~ :3c Weasyl owners will have first picks, then I will offer it on FA. Unfair? Maybe. Do I care? No, it's my offer and I will do what I want~

    Weasyl is just a FAR better website in general.

    • Link

      I DO enjoy Weasyl a lot more. I like the features, the look, the support, and also that it is a general art site that happens to be furry friendly.

      • Link

        Exactly, I was very impressed when it first went into Beta, and how well the administration listens to user input.

  • Link

    All I know is that I saw your initial journal over there, before it was flooded with comments, and I understood where you were coming from. Honestly, that's all that anyone needed to take away from it. Of course, some people start raging, as they have over the entire thing. But...for some odd reason, some of these people are going insane. FA, like you said, currently has quite a large issue it needs to work through, and quite frankly this current one is made up of several major ones from the past that, in reality, it never actually resolved.

    But the way some people are reacting on journals to one another (so far removed from the actual issues, in fact), you would think they sucker-punched their mom or something. o.O

    Aaaaanyway, so happy to be watching you over on FA for ages, so glad to be watching here, and no matter what happens I can't wait to see more. :D

      Urgh yea. That's ALL I mentioned and one person asks about if I am leaving then is angry when I basically say I don't know. Goes as far as saying I even edited my journal. He's a nut job. Friend mentions why he is angry, and someone targets him. Had another flip at me over notes. Muzz put it the best way possible with how I felt.

      It IS an issue and people dismissing it as JUST drama is anger inducing.

      Ai! I've seen you comment and fav on stuff for a long time ^ ^. Thank you so much for following me over here as well!

      • Link

        That's the one thing I love about the people who keep screaming and whining about "drama" all of the time and how it infects the fandom. Most of the time, I have to say, the ones yelling "DRAMA!" are the ones causing the majority of it. It's as if uttering it is a variant on yelling out "Jumanji." Instead of a stampede of animals, though, we usually just get a glut of raging, cursing, and insults all over the place. ;3

        And so glad to be watching! You've done a great many excellent pictures, and I have to thank you and a few other friends for probably making me appreciate inflation and WG art all the more. Keep up the fine work~! ^ ^

        • Link

          Definitely ALWAYS happy to get people into inflation and WG X3

          • Link

            You got me hooked! The therapist bill will be in the mail! >:O

            Naaaaaah, like I'd see a therapist about such. That just diverts funds for more inflation art! ;3

  • Link

    Hell yeah. I can post stories and stuff here tooo

    • Link

      Stories are handled much better over here then on FA but last time I tried to post a story (character long bio) there was a few issues. I hope they fixed it. Since I don't write I haven't tried it out since.

  • Link

    Icons and humans? You've got my interest so hard.

  • Link

    I'll keep an eye out.

    • Link

      May take a while but will definitely be doing. Thank you! :3

  • Link

    Hey, good to see that you've kept a healthy frequency as far as Weasyl goes. I'm guilty of not doing that, but other issues outside of all of the FA crap that's being spewed about is what's got me finally back on here. Sucks that stupid people are raging over your indecisions, but they've proven themselves to be impatient peoples.

    Anyways! If you're looking for more furries that happen to be on FA and Weasyl, then definitely give this tool a try devved up by someone on Weasyl. This will help you find contacts in your Watchers list on FA that may also be on Weasyl. It used to be called the "Fender Bender" before a certain dragon flipped shit about the name. http://projects.weasyl.com/soft/

    • Link

      Oh definitely! My plan was to always keep both up to date. With Blimped it was three places! Yea that one guy got all pissy and I was thinking like "dude, I'm not even TALKING about that now". Hahaha yea I remember Fender Bender. I may take a look at it. Is it any good?

      • Link

        You definitely won't find everyone you're watching because their Weasyl username isn't in the database or some of who you're watching simply isn't on there, but that's alright. There was still quite a bit of my watchers list on here already when I used it earlier.

        That pissy dude...yeah, not going there. Just. Am. Not.

        Keep up with the artz, because they are all awesome. :3

  • Link

    Humans? SUCH BLASPHEMY!

    All honesty, I always laughed about that rule on FA, where they kinda frowned on human art. XD

    • Link

      HYOOOOOOMANS!?!?!?!?!

      Yea I came into FA seeing absolute HATE for human art so I was like "WELP, GUESS WHAT I WON'T BE DRAWING AGAIN!"

      • Link

        STOP THE HUMENS

        But seriously, I may actually consider migrating over to here completely someday. FA's just kinda gotten meh with me lately.

        • Link

          HYAHUMAMAMAMAMANS

          That would be great! :D

          • Link

            HUMERNBSEES

            A FRESH START

            ...With old art... o3o;

              h-nyoom-mans

    Sometimes being slow with decisions is the only way to make them. And wait... there was a rule against human art on FA? Well, good thing it seems they only enforce the rules when it suits them or whatever... Bleh, furries need a reality check when it comes to human bashing anyway. Curious to see how they look in your style though.

    • Link

      Yea I don't like making quick decisions cause I get too nervous. When I came into FA there wasn't a rule against it? Or..... I missed that? But there was definite hate for humans and a lot of fights over it. ACTUAL drama over human art. I only have one picture of humans in my gallery but it's chibi~

      • Link

        I don't know, my eyes may have gazed over when reading that part of the AUP. But yeah, I can believe that there is some hate even though I never really saw it myself. A lot of strawman BS because a bunch of whiny individuals want to use humans as their go-to poster child for whatever they don't like. Or just reuse the ancient and tired cliche of humans being an entire race of fat, inexplicably evil technophiles. Thank you Sonic SatAM and Robotnik... Anyway, yeah can you tell this is something of a pet peeve of mine? :P
