Sharing a hotel room at a con:Have you done it before? Where did you find people to split the room with? Were they strangers? What rules were usually in place for the convention weekend? Did any problems arise? Would you do it again?

>>10957775heeeyy mythie I hope you're doing well... That fuckass photo I took gives me flashbacks lmao. At least you didn't have two other dudes spooning eachother in that bed with you one night :(Meet people at cons beforehand and figure out if they're chill. Once you find the right people that aren't creeps and pay properly then try rooming with them again.

I hope the average Jax cosplayer isn't as insufferable as all the Jax fags I've come across. By far the most unlikeable TADC character but also probably the easiest to cosplay (provided you don't go full fursuit). For such a simple design, I'm surprised how difficult it is to pull off a simple Ragatha cosplay.
>>10966081Are you the same guy who immediately calls any positive jax-related post "underaged" or "mental issues"?
>>10966086No but I am the same guy who will ask how can you still be defending Jax after all he's done since the latest episode. Those same people you referenced will attack you when asking questions about Jax's morality
What keeps you coming back to cons? Even /cgl/, as small as it is, shows there's a billion possible combinations to explain: "Why?" Some answers, but definitely not all, would be>Cosplayingsolo, group, admiring, meetups, photography>What the event itself offersGuests, shops / artist alley, rave, game room>The social elementParties (unofficial), hookups, meet new folks, mutual friends flying in from different areas>Hanging outPeople watch, the weird experiences only cons can provide, that one time in the year "the gang gets back together"And of course any reasons I forgot to include are always encouraged. The floor is yours, gulls.
I like the vibes and buying art. Any panels I think are neat are a bonus.Kinda getting the itch to put on a panel myself, and maybe it's the influence of my cosplaying friends but I'm starting to want to give that a shot, too.
>>10964788I still go for artist alleys. That's also why I liked going to a Japanese con twice and would like to go back a few more times, buying doujinshi and reading them whenever I want makes it worth it. I don't care about other parts of cons anymore because I don't care about the cosplays I see or don't recognize them, guests are random tiktokers who just happen to like DBZ, there aren't anymore concerts by Japanese artists in the cons where I go, and professional sellers just sell bootlegs of anything you can think of.
>>10964788I am more in my element with a bunch of nerds and weebs. My friends arent really nerds, so cons help me find a community with that side of things, if only for a weekend.
NGL I've only been to two cons this year, a smaller one and Dokomi, and for both I didn't need to pay for tickets because I was helping a friend with her booth or modelling for the J-Fashion show. I still bought regular tickets for Dokomi 2026 because the whole fashion show thing might not work out this year due to a change in how they handle volunteer helpers, as well as the new organisation team that got implemented this year for the fashion stage sucking major balls.
>>10964788Quite a few things actually:>partying with the bros>a reason to travel>that warm feeling when someone recognizes and complements your cosplay, usually only obtainable when someone enjoys my cooking>good panels >the positive energy from seeing my friends also have fun and contributing to that how I can, thus creating a positive energy tide that floats all boats>the chance to discuss shit I like irl and meet more people into said shit>the nearly impossible chance that I might meet a woman who clicks with me, which for some reason I haven’t written off as entirely impossible
Would you go to Dashcon 2014 if given the chance?
>>10965814Honestly? Yes. 2014-2019 tumblr was so peak I'd go to a bad tumblr convention over a good number of "good" non-tumblr ones just for the vibe.
>>10966004>>10965814I dunno, bad cons are just fucking boring desu
>>10965814Having been to bad cons before (the worst one out of the ones I've been to being an actual fire or stampede hazard because there were way too many people in the venue), it's a no from me. The only good part about being at DashCon '14 was being able to tell people afterward that you were at one of the worst cons in history.>>10965960>I want pre-2020 cosplay back so much2010's still had a bit of the old cosplay culture left, but by then the cancer that is influencer-driven cosplay was already taking over. When I finally started regularly going to cons in 2014 (not dashcon but other ones), names like Jessica Nigri and Yaya Han were already established as career cosplayers that did FOTM cosplays instead of using cosplay as an extension of fan art. It's obviously worse now, but it was already bad then.
>>10965814I was there in 2014 Saturday and Sunday. It was decent if you treated it as a meetup not an actual convention (I ghosted)
>>10966054from what I heard the organization of #2 was way more serious and competent with strict limits on number of participantsstrange/teya has a few videos on it but I have not kept up with her recent ones after the announcement onehttps://www.youtube.com/watch?v=k99zWRyOQ9U

Ten years later and I got the urge to try and play Gijin Kareshi again because I missed my gays too much.Does the browser method even work still because I got access to my shit again but I can't click on half the things.Pressing the button does nothing and even if I work myself around to other parts, I can't click on the gacha to claim shit.

>Fourteen people were arrested and 10 victims were rescued in a human sex trafficking sting at San Diego Comic-Con Convention.>The San Diego Human Trafficking Task Force conducted a three-day operation ahead of the weekend bust, California Attorney General Rob Bonta said in a news release on Tuesday, adding that among those rescued was a 16-year-old girl.>Law enforcement officers went undercover as sex buyers to identify and arrest traffickers, as well as find potential victims, according to the attorney general's officers.>Undercover police also posted ads seeking sex as part of the operation.
>>10931472every female cosplayer is a prostitute
>>10931421so some police officers were caught soliciting sex and they arrested some innocent bystanders to cover it up?
I was pretty retarded when I was 16in fact I still get reality checks about assuming too much good faith seeing some of the posts people make on this site
>>10931421They tried to traffic me at a con in 2019. I was drugged, and sexually and physically assaulted. Fortunately, I'm was too much of a contrarian to get out of the venue so they beat me up and propped me in a corner. I still go to cons and party by myself. They should have killed me.

i dunno when drawthreads tapered off here but i periodically check back and there just never is one. so ill be the change I want to see in the world. post coords for me to draw, thank you. (and other artists too of course)

Is cosplay dinergoth?
>>10965395Amazing how low iqs on this board are. Clearly says that everything goth is just a fact of life now.And to answer OPs question, yes. Anime is basically mainstream now and "cosplay" is no different than a bunch of sluts dressing up for halloween or dressing fancy for a formal event. It just a thing everyone does now. And while we're at it most conventions and events aren't even full of nerds anymore, just normalfags doing what geeks did 20 years ago.
>>10965507>I guess maybe "e-girl" is a slur now>nowe-girl has always been a sexist slur moids threw at women doing anything quirky.
>>10965843even though egirl subculture was a term alt women on tiktok used to refer to themselves back in 2018-2022
>>10965964they were reclaiming it
>>10965507>2 yearsI graduated in 2007, just in time to watch all my friends' life trajectories get annihilated in the 2008 crash when suddenly nobody anywhere was hiring.

After reading the entire thread I noticed how many of the stories involved alcohol or weed. I'm a straight edge who's never had weed and only drinks at home. Am I missing out?

Anyone know where I can find Idol Force footage? What did everyone think of it this time?
it’s a fan
anyone actually going to events will see she always had her fave fansnot surprising to me if she ended up shacking up with them. maybe even at the same time. wont surprise me if she freaky like that.there has to be a reason through the years she's been dropped by her top supporters after a while. might all be related.
>>10966284If it is a fan, they should be congratulated lmaoEvery man in here would sleep with an idol if given a chance id wager
>>10966289>there has to be a reason through the years she's been dropped by her top supporters after a while. might all be related.She can come across as a bitch sometimes, but I dont think its intentional, I think she is just socially awkward
>>10966264that idol agency has a love ban?or is the guy in charge just jealous?
