It's been 10 years Are cons safer now?Anyone encountered any con creeps?I (male) got my butt grabbed by another guy once, didn't bother me desu (not gay)
>>10918868It's because none one actually has to work through a cringe socially awkward phase anymore due to technologies like the internet and gaming. People hate to hear it but you actually need those experiences. You need brush up against those social situations that cause friction because that only way you're going to develop as a person and learn to navigate your way through social relations. What the internet and gaming does is offer a friction-less version of the social relations, so you get to hit the dopamine buttons and feel like your doing social interactions but if things gets too rough you don't have to go through it you can just jump ship with no consequences and or just devalue the social interaction in your head bc it's incredibly easy to not think of the person on the other side of screen as a real person. Now you don't get the same high from online interactions but it is infinitely safer. So when people do stumble out into the real world and they inevitably do brush up against uncomfortable situations they just kind of freak out or feel incredibly violated because they can't just pull back like they can online. It's a reaction to a loss of control they aren't used to having to endure.
>>10919104I would lean toward creep bc what is the candid moment being caught in this photo?
>>10919104Bad candid, boring subject. Verging on creepshot.
>>10919925>work through a phase like that going to fighting game tournaments>now if I act the way I always have I get ostracized by the new generation of pussy niggas who police language based on someone else's feelings maybe being hurtunironic clown worldwhy do people take the fucking internet seriouslymaybe everyone's parents should be abusive or get late stage cancer so they get a fucking slap in the face and stop caring about made up problems
>>10919935Between thuggery and zesty niggas, the thuggery era FGC was probably better. What ushered in the zesty era? Most sports are not as zesty as the fighting game scene.

>>10919680If it was really accessible, it wouldn't surprise me if people just tried it for fun and swapped back later or not.I imagine the final m/f ratio at the end might affect social dynamics. But even then if you look at VRChat and if it's any indicator, it'd be men swapping to women to fuck each other...

july 18-21 pittsburgh, pa stop ignoring it's existence
>>10917708Think part of it is that PA is weirdly devoid of strictly anime cons. Colossal East is growing overbloated and beyond that all I know are Zenkai and Setsu. I like Tekko but it definitely feels like one of the weaker cons I've been to desu>that fundraiser shit?
>>10917736ntayrt, but a year or two ago they held a fundraiser for 100k to keep tekko alive because of some shit like con/venue prices raising after covid. kinda sad how after the fundraiser and how much they made, the con is still kinda mid and they've barely announced any guests this year
>>10917778Ah okay I see, I remember hearing something last year about a fundraiser but none of the deets. The guest trickle has been pretty weird but I don't usually go to cons primarily for guests anyways. I find it weirder that between that fundraiser and holding Sangawa Project this year (iirc priced relatively the same as Tekko complete with badge upgrades despite it being like several years since it was last held and being so so much smaller) seemingly none of that extra cash has been put toward any big announcements or big upgrades at all.
>>10917869Not that I agree but the fundraiser wasn't to make the con better it was to pay back the money lost due to 2020 being cancelled. Tekko is slowly bleeding out and running out of resources and guests willing to come back.
>>10919893Oh no I figured it was to mainly make up for COVID debts, but at the same time it doesn't exactly feel like a con trying to bounce back on a second wind or whatever as a result.>Tekko is slowly bleeding out and running out of resources and guests willing to come back.Even then I hope it doesn't go under desu because PA is just fucking ass when it comes to cons for whatever reason. Everything in Philly is comics or just general Fan Expo shit and Colossal East is crowded out the ass and comes with the Kalihari staff treating you like shit. Is Zenkai any good? I have no idea.

You need to learn how to vibe and talk to people at conventions. If you're underage that's one thing. If you're old enough you should budget for a hotel room so you can party and party with strangers and make new friends. The best part about conventions is meeting people and subsequently running into them at other cons in other years and it's all so fucking beautiful. It's the only time you don't have to suppress your powerlevel because guess what? They know all the dumb memes you do and have a lot of overlap in interests and other things you enjoy. You can ask someone why they're green and actually learn something about Startrek because they fucking love star trek so much they painted themselves green! SO WHEN I ASK THEM THEY ARE MORE THAN WILLING TO GUSH ABOUT THE SHIT THEY LOVE! I FUCKING LOVE NERD CONVENTION SHIT HOLY FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUCK LETS GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO
>>10910679you can see in real time that zoomers are scared of turning old and take this frustration out on older people
>>10919457Things that definately happened, yea you definately just knocked on doors and were allowed in there with a 25 year age gap between you and everyone else, totally normal thing that happens and is never awkward. Lol.
>>10919617Have you never gone to a multi-fandom convention? Or a science-fiction convention? Or any con but a few weeb cons? Yea that's pretty plausible especially if as the other anon says,*he looks much younger than he actually is*
>>10900752OP must have been druk when he posted this if you know what i mean hehaheh
>interact with con people >realize just how less autistic you are than the average person there
What's the best community? If you could just magically wake up already living in the city with the comm of your choice, where would it be and why?Are there any comms that you feel are too far gone and better left given up on to dissolve by their own internal squabbling?
I was sick of the inactive local comms around me full of itas so I made my own group. Everyone who joins is vetted, only active lolitas and no men allowed. We have great meetups and everyone is well-dressed. Anything is possible if you put the work in!
>>10919688NTAYRT but I really like my comm and I live in America. I would say majority of our comm is well dressed and the "itas" are super new to lolita and have time to improve. Also luckily no fetishists or any similar issues.As far as finding a comm that "hate trannys", remember EGL is an alternative fashion that attracts people who live alternative lifestyles. I understand your concerns, but there's no public comm in America that's going to "hate trannys".
>>10919658What’s with the horrible generalizations on this thread? Most people overseas wouldn’t even know lolita existed if it weren’t for Americans popularizing the fashion.
>>10919688if you can't find them, they probably don't want you there.
>>10919704 Agreed, I don't think I could find a comm like that. I meant more finding people in the comm I could potentially get along with and not have to deal with pretending. I don't hate my comm either, I was hoping to find closer friends.>>10919735True lol. I'll stick to my group comm meets.
Foid here,I'm starting to think cosplaying is only worth it if you're attractive
>>10913569men have more respect for the enemies they kill in a war than the women they leave at home raising their children, got it.>>10913584kill yourself
>>10913183back then most cosplayers werre uglier so she stood out more
>>10836557>Niggery >atractiveBalding normie just catched the simps
>>10913008This only applies to modern women who were taught to hate men by jewllywood movies and degenerates on tumblr/twitter/instagram/you name itNon-degenerate women are just as capable of love as men and also want stability. Sadly they're becoming few and far between because women tend to follow trends and conform to social norms, and modern social norms are degenerate.
>>10913259>violence on opposite genderThat's because men are stronger. If you take all the behind back trashtalking women score first>abandonment on sicknessWomen score first at abandonment on becoming miserable>hours spent on domestic chores statisticsMen score first at hours spent at workCongratulations you just discovered there are biological differences between genders
Previous thread >>10803531 died from a lack of posts. Not all that surprising with how little there was to post about at the time. Personally I'm also somewhat done with /cgl/ and all the pointless con drama and have been focusing on other things. But now that we've got several conventions around the corner, have a new thread!Question of the thread: What convention are you looking forward to the most this year and why?Upcoming major events>22-23 Sep: Elfia Haarzuilens, a large popular outdoor fantasy event in Haarzuilens.>6-7 May: MIA NL, a popular commercial anime convention in Gorinchem.>21-21 May: Comic Con Brussels, a large commercial geek convention in Brussels.>9-11 June: Animecon, the oldest anime convention of the Netherlands, hosted in Rijswijk.>24-25 June: Heroes DCC, the largest commercial geek convention with a focus on dealers. >30 Jun-2 Jul: Dokomi DE, a large popular anime convention in Dusseldorf.>8-9 July: Atsusacon, Belgium's largest anime convention... I think?>3-6 August: Castlefest, a(nother) large popular outdoor fantasy event in Haarzuilens with tons of great food.>11-13 August: Abunai!, the second oldest and probably now largest anime convention of the Netherlands, hosted in Veldhoven.>12-13 August: Showmasters Comic Con Amsterdam, a geek convention in Amsterdam.Comment too long.

Anyone doing touhou?
>>10919589yes
We're just under four months away now.Have you got a room yet, or are you still hunting?Set on your cosplay? How's it coming along?How do you plan on getting there?
I might be going. A couple of friends are very likely to have 2-3 people drop out of staying in the room that they've already paid for. I don't want them to get fucked on money and I haven't been to DragonCon since maybe 2008.
>>10919453what's your discord
>>10919455Keep in mind MARTA stop running like 11:30 or something early and on Saturday there are sporting events which FILLS the MARTA. MARTA is alright if you don't have props or in big cosplay.We try the MARTA first year of DragonCon it fucking SUCKED. After that we just drive in and park at the parking deck next to Sheraton hotel. It has gotten really pricy to park there in recent year through.
This is the con for 60yo swingers, right?
>>10919588It’s pretty chill, really not much going on, but I’m hoping to invite more people for Conshttps://discord.gg/5ZfV48ma
