Why do these three simple letters send crabs into a frothy, seething rage?

Because it’s a way for shitty artists to dodge criticism with a non sequitur rather than improve.

Ive noticed whenever I post my work people completely ignore it and then the thread immediately dies

I noticed when I post my work people just get mad at me :(

Because it's often used when it's totally inappropriate. Like people are talking about the business of the art industry, someone might mention dropping quality, and someone's response will be 'pyw'.
What's their own artistic ability got do to with their taste and judgement on the quality of a product?
And I'm sure someone will hilariously say pyw to this post, but again, what's the quality of my work got do with my opinion here, or this post?

That said, if you're going to critique someone's work on here, acting as if your some form of authority, you should be able to back up your own skills with your own work. We can see this right now in >>7862151 where some crab faggot seems to have completely derailed the thread by critiquing someone's work, and refusing to post their own work or redline the work they're critiquing, and deflecting by saying the criticisms are just observable. Just telling them to pyw and ignoring them if they don't is the way to go, otherwise you're just going to help derail the thread by trying to debate them.

>>7951188
Haha, this has happened to me more than a few times. I even try to respond to a fair few others' work and say what I like about their work - they often don't even so much as respond with a 'thank you' though. Oh well, lead by example, and be the change you want to be, and all that.
>>
>>7951158
Because getting exposed is deeply embarrassing.
>>
>>7951202
>Because it's often used when it's inappropriate.
that's also my only gripe with it
It's not even funny because the timing isn't even right a lot of times

On that note; post your work

>>7951202
>Like people are talking about the business of the art industry, someone might mention dropping quality, and someone's response will be 'pyw'.
Yeah, this is used too often to say that you disagree with someone. You say "post your work" to say that if they don't post their work, then what they're saying is obviously wrong. And if they do post their work, you can shit all over it and say it's bad work to also prove that what they're saying is wrong. What logical fallacy is that? Ad hominem? I don't really know. In any case, it makes for poor discourse.

However. The thread you are referring to, and the anon you are critiquing, those posts he is making is his art. It's performance art. If you're going to critique it, you should pyw.

i hid it right after spotting that faggot because i knew the thread was done. there wont be coming many other drawings that will surpass most of the threads great anons that attempted and succeeded. overall it has been a very good thread.
>pyw
here is the outline from my piece that i posted
>>
Posting your work here is genuinely a waste of drawings.
In general, posting here more than just your usual zoomer brain rot is simply a waste.
There are way too many outright malicious individuals farming this board trying to make any kind of thing impossible.
>>
>>7951220
why don't you redline the foid and help her out?
>>
>>7951220
Ultimately, a thread's fate isn't due to the crabs, it's the attention they're given. Just look at how long the reply chain is for that one retard. ONE retard shit up the thread that much.
>>
>>7951234
If a female cant learn to calm her feelings enough to ignore a troll, is it the trolls fault or the foids?
>>
>>7951238
the provider of crack cocaine is always more at fault than the addict. dont blame the victim, but the source of evil.
>>
>>7951239
OK hippy, I'll blame the crackhead
>>
>>7951238
honestly, it's not that the troll will stop even if he gets ignored.
even then, making fun of someone that can't control themselves is not really an art or trolling for that matter

It doesnt mean anything, its just a non sequiter. Like "fuck you". You don't actually want to fuck them, you're just signalling that you do not like what they said and that it bothered you.

>>7951217
you think learning about art is like getting a tooth extraction?

The problem of art circles is that they're either an hugbox or a nuclear reactor; never something inbetween.
It's also pretty insane that artists have no sense of humor.

Artists clearly can have a sense of humour, or humorous comics and cartoons wouldn't be a thing. It's moreso that many are overly sensitive and can't take criticism.

Though I do think that artists have become more left leaning politically, and that crowd as a whole has seemingly lost their sense of humour, but that's neither here nor there.

Posting my work. No bully, please.

I dont really like this piece at all. First it's fanart which isnt inherently bad but its also not very original looking either which is worse to me fanart is nice but if I dont know an artist I'd like to see something that represents their own ideas more than just pre-existing ones. For the piece itself you just chose a bunch of generic tropes from that are popular and acceptable online like Anime woman Dommy mommy with abs very annoying. Even the environment this character is in is generic here where you give her ringlight reflection under her boobs and her abs getting lighting from the opposite direction there's just nothing about it thats really all that impressive and really does just come off as low effort coomer work. All of this is personal preference of course but you should know your work does not stand out at all. So far? Not a fan.

Also here is something I made since were in the pyw thread.
>>
>>7951158
PYW is generally used when someone calls someone else's art dogshit or otherwise gives unhelpful, nitpicky, and/or vague advice (anatomy bad). It makes people angry for the simple fact that they can't post their work and they understand that they have no real artistic legs to stand on... or, you know, they're too much of a pussy to reveal themselves.

Anyone who disagrees with this is the type of combative, condescending idiot who gets hit with

You should really work on your shading. Right now you are in this limbo between simple anime and more realistic stylization. It's busy and you lose subtlety, but at the same time it looks wrong and unrealistic.
tl;dr Tone it down or ramp up the quality.

Of course! In my opinion you don't really need to be a good artist to criticize a piece but I see the importance of PYW for here being it's evidence that you are apply your own advice and not talking out your ass.

So-called artists online, who really should call themselves illustrators, are childish and naive, as evidenced by their ignorant use of the word "artist" over "illustrator." And said childish naive illustrators are also emotionally immature, therefore falling into online social conformity tendencies and wanting to signal that they are indeed the childish romanticized image that they have of an "artist" and all of the stereotypes that come with it.

Nta but my 2 cents is. The value ranges are too close with the background. The colors bleed into the subject and other elements so the image is hard to read.

any self respecting artist should study anatomy as much as possible.
you've been exposed for being a moron that can't tell the difference between AI and a genuine illustration and have now you're moving the goalposts where you try to tell people how to draw. you lack self awareness, begtard.
