You've all probably noticed my lack of activity on here. So I'll give you the low-down.
It's been a fun few years. I've enjoyed my time with the ladies and gents I've met on here, had a few laughs and whatnot. But as time goes on, I've grown tired of the things that have made SG not fun anymore, and in fact, has made it an absolute drag and bummer.
It's tough to enjoy your time in a community where the moment you make a mistake, whether it be accidentally starting a new thread topic that's been discussed before in an old one, to somehow offending someone when your intentions were good, to even just a typo, you get jumped on, harassed, and lectured at every turn. It's like member sarahg said in a thread once (about a different topic), "sigh. it's a wonder anyone shares anything anymore. everyone else knows it all. everyone else can do better. or so they think, anyway."
"Or so they think" is right.
As far as my Hopeful situation? I'm delighted you asked.
I'm tired of submitting sets and asking for critique, and everyone has something negative to say instead of something constructive EVERY TIME. Fuck you, you pontificators masquerading as experts. We're all experts on what an SG set "should" look like. They have the photoset concept down to science - in that EVERY SET LOOKS THE SAME. How can you NOT know what one should look like? Are you kidding me? Not to mention that FAQ gives girls guidelines - no bedroom, kitchen, outdoors, or bathroom sets - and yet these types of sets are accepted every month, pretty much every day. A few SG's and "old skool" members are quick to say, "Well, they're not unless they're flawless and amazing." Shit, they should put the invisible yet implied "UNLESS IT IS EXTRAORDINARY" clause in the FAQ, then. It's slightly misleading. And, haha, WOW, there sure are LOTS of "incredible"...
