Okay, so there is a massive drama llama that needs dealing with.
I am the first to admit I am not a hugely active member in the online cosplay community. I do not participate in the drama. But what riles me up is when the constant bitching at each other drives people to extremes. I don't give a flying fuck who hates who and who said what. Keep it to yourselves. THis isn't high school cliques, you are all old enough to act maturely. This is real life and you are hurting real people. Give. It. A. Rest.

I just argued with a close friend as they were rude to me due to how hurt they were. It hurt me. There is a reason I don't go on 4chan, barely go on the forums, and stay away from critiquing and bitching. You hurt people. You stop them from doing the things they like because they feel like shit doing it all of a sudden. I may only be new on the cosplay scene but the whole "Better than you" stuff is just going too far. Everyone learn a little respect for each other, and if you don't like it, keep it to yourself.

I don't want to see great cosplayers, artists, crafters, photographers and just genuinely good people hurt because some irresponsible and immature people can't keep it to themselves.

This is all I am going to say on this matter, I do not want to become involved in this crap, but these things need to be said. If you have something wrong with what I have said, do not bother trying to have a go at me, because I will not take the bait.

And to those being wrongfully victimised and who are just on the sidelines, stay strong, I hope it will be over soon.

I agree wholeheartedly, I don't get involved in the drama.
The only time i really on the forums is in the cosplay section for groups or tutorials or what not.
i live in canberra so i pretty much live out of the radar of the drama storm that goes on in the main hubs. so when i do see everyone i have a great time!
the only time i really have a problem is when i talk to someone that someone else doesn't like. And then its the end of the world! frankly i don't know nor care what they did to you or whatever, especially when they have been nothing but nice to me. By acting that way your making me dislike you more than the person you hate.
I know there are people who don't like each other or don't get along but trying to bring other people into your problems doesn't help you or anyone else.


sorry kinda ranted a bit there lol!
