As you have seen the title, you MUST READ THIS. I’m not forcing you to or anything, but please stay and read my words I have typed out. A lot of people have been leaving or going on hiatus, and it makes me feel sad because many good artists are fading from scratch. Most of them leave from their own choice, whether they want to move on, or focus on reality. They sometimes leave because they don’t like scratch anymore, or they just forget about it. It’s okay, because it’s their choice. But some people are forced to leave, or leave because of some other person!! It frustrates me so much because this has happened to me on a different account! I’m just making a rant, don’t take this as if I’m blaming you-- 1. People have been leaving because they were banned, when they were innocent. Okay. Really, some people are innocent! You can’t blame everyone. They can be banned for stealing art, or stealing styles, or being rude and disrespectful. THIS IS DRIVING ME CRAZY WHEN PEOPLE GET BANNED FOR STEALING ART OR STEALING DESIGNS!! Ok, some people actually purposely steal or copy, and they get banned, but innocent people are out here, being accused! Suppose you see art similar and similar designs, and you go up there and say, “EVERYONE REPORT THIS DUDE BECAUSE HE/SHE STOLE MY ART/DESIGN!!” I’m not trying to be rude here, but just SHUT UP. There is almost no such thing as “original design” because there are probably people who invented your design before you, unless you were born like 1000 B.C. Sorry if I’m exaggerating, but this is a SERIOUS PROBLEM. You are mad and stupid! Sorry, but please don’t accuse everyone who has similar art, unless you’ve seen them around your profile or something! I know I accused people in the past, and I apologize for that. When you accuse someone, they feel bad! 2. People have been saying mean things to others, and then the bullied person leave. When you say something mean, other people CAN SEE IT. That’ll make the person being bullied look bad, as if you say “this person is horrible and gross and STUPID” in their comments. The person would feel embarrassed and probably leave, because that’s how I sometimes feel. At least some people would stick up to other >:00 “HEY! I KNOW THIS PERSON IN IRL, AND THEY ARE SO GROSS AND FAT!” Wow, go and live under a rock and shut up. 3. People leave if they are likely to get banned. INNOCENT PEOPLE, HELLO! If people keep on accusing you, you might want to avoid trouble and leave. So stop accusing people, if you know they are INNOCENT! Just because some other person said that this user was copying or doing something bad, it doesn’t mean the user actually did it! Get PROOF, or else you’ll be a loser! Ok, I sound pretty mean and rash, but I’m trying to get people to understand this. But please don’t take this as a threat and think I’m rude, I’m just trying to get accusers and mean people to shut up. Thanks, miilki
