For real. If you moved here from another site, that's great, but don't bash or bad talk that other site. It's childish and makes for a hostile environment for other users who still use or support that site. I'd wager that a large amount of the reason alternative sites fail is because everyone jumps on the "[ORIGINAL SITE] SUCKS" bandwagon, and then when the drama dies down where you came from, the people who would have otherwise loved to use the new site migrate back because they don't want to deal with people talking smack about a community they care for.
really. I like Weasyl, but just like I liked IB and SF, the anti-FA sentiments are really strong and making me want to use the site less and less.
"FINE, I'LL GO TO THIS NEW ART SITE, WITH BLACKJACK AND HOOKERS. RIGHT, BUDDY?"
"We... don't have hookers...? Or at least ask you to tag them appropriately."
"IT'S MY NEW BEST FRIEND AND YOUR FACE IS DUMB. MY NEW FRIEND THINKS SO TOO."
"Please don't bring me into this."
"ME AND MY NEW BUDDY HERE ARE GOING TO HAVE THE BEST OF TIMES."
"Well, thanks, I hope so too, but --"
"I HATE YOU FOREVER. FOREVER. AND ANYONE WHO STILL LIKES YOU IS LAME."
That is not a friend or supporter anyone wants. P:

Right? I'm seeing some pushback against Weasyl through no real fault of its own. Can't we just have nice things?
