Nah, I heard that they tried making a flying type eevee a long time ago, but they scrapped the idea because they had trouble coming up with an original design that didn't look like a fan design (take this with a grain of salt, though).

it feels vaguely medieval, where there's a vapid upperclass you're supposed to entertain by copying whatever trend, and not much of a market for anything else
but at the same time, there's so many people, there's probably a way to get a small following for your art if you're dedicated to it

there's also artist/art communities on discord & shit, you could maybe advertise there, especially at first

i will admit, it kinna did at times. and it did feel like a sort of social hub of all sorts of anon, but these days, it feels fairly bleak. i would say this is the period where it is lower than bronze, defineltly not the dark age, but more like a great depression.

wondering if it's been too long since the last winterball to host another one.
>>
>>23614702
For comics: I see people throw shit at the reddit wall hoping something goes viral

usually (99% of the time) it's coomer shit while all the effort comics get swipped. But if you are consistent enough to post a couple pages once a week you can garner a couple fans.

For illustration: eeeh twitter? def not on reddit.

The Winterball died with Spooktober, queen of /v/ and console-tans.

It served as a sort of pioneer of the seasonal drawfag event.

i think discord could be better, if you find an active server where you can become a community member AND advertise
much less an exercise in "throwing shit at the wall until something sticks", much less random
and high-effort stuff won't get swept under the rug, especially if consistent

never be that close to fandom. fans are not friends, they are parasocial relationships. it can end very badly.

>>23615817
but servers with alot of other artists could work to your advantage, especially if your art is very well-done

Its probably me being sleep deprived but do you mean fans of whatever the fandom is based around or of artists themselves. And isn't parasocial used for completely one sided relationships where one doesn't know of the other?

a shame. it seem that since /qa/ has well and truely lost /bant/ is pretty much now the meta board. since /bant/ has a history of collaborative effort I wonder if there'd be a possibility of cross-board events this season. even though they last major one was 6 years ago.
>>
>>23615899
>parasocial
at this point in time, that word has been overused so much that it has lost most of its meaning like any seasonal buzzword around here. no idea what it means anymore but...

what he is trying to say is that online people be it fans, followers, groups, online friends, anonymous, etc are not people you should be close with at all. keep life separate. there is your irl life then there is whatever faggy persona you choose to be online. keep it separate and dont get too close to online people because it gets ugly... except for me because we are besties ^-^

By your logic Zenigata is part of the Lupin crew.

But your perspective is valid, whenever I appear unmasked in this mask, bad guys appear. That's a good pattern recognition, however, that doesn't mean we are on the same team. The bad guys are fixated on this mask, because this mask scares them, threatens them. So when it appears, they come out of the woodwork to be like "I'm totally winning! I'm going to get away with everything!" While being marked, traced, and tracked. Think of it as a live tagging that they fall for every single time, because they are retarded zoomers.

You're also valid in calling me a bad actor, because I'm not exactly on 4chans side, and you're free to say "Everyone not on my team is a bad guy" that being said, my interest in that is just fishing a spot with a particular bait that I know the retarded fish I am hunting can't resist. We may not be on the same team, but we share a similar problem with the retarded fish. Apologies for using your part of the pond to fish and tag.

That being said, "Said fish have been tagged and marked, nows a good time for Ape to help on his end."

>>23631800
Thing is that the happenings of this year have been... particular

you have, back to back:
>sharty hack
>leto going schizo and making it everyone's problem
>rapeape breaking the information iron curtain and his intentions for 4chan
>literally every schizo in 4chan being given free instant ban evasion

This blows the typical board events and dramas out of the window. /hap/ being a meta thread attracts people who want to talk about it.

Eventually they'll get bored and leave when things go back to normal and the most exciting thing to happen is a board self-wiping via shitposts.

you should really have ur discussions somewhere a bit more private, the constant speculation without any action is just stroking the ego of ppl like leto.
its best to only post pubically when announcing that you have actually done something or otherwise you are just helping them feel powerful while they stay a few steps ahead of you.
there's a reason investigations into shit like this are always done in secrecy and not made public. you are probably fucking over a lot of other peoples efforts by you and your clique posting about it in the /hap/ threads

You should go to justice.gov and type in 764 in the search bar. At the current time I've got about 25 arrests to my name with that group alone. Or you should go to Google and type in 764 arrests, or go to the wikipedia page about it. And those are the same ones I'm allowed to talk about. And I wouldnt say Batman, more like Lobo. And there's a joke about that, when you translate that name.

>>23632954
No. The idea is for Leto and his friends to come out, be marked and tagged, in a fishing spot where he is known to travel, and datamine the info while also pissing them off into making a mistake.

The fishing here will continue until Leto and his friends move to a new website of which I'll follow them there, or he gets arrested.
>>
>>23633439
how does any of that prove you have literally anything to do with a single arrest though?
you can't just make claims like this without backing them up and untill proven otherwise you arena just a mentally ill larper with delusions of grandure who at the very most submits occasionally helpful online tips to the feds.
if you are genuinely directly involved with taking any of this shit down then good for you but people doing shit like that generally don't obsessively post about it online looking for validation and dont generally attempt to gain orbiters.
>the fishing here will continue until leto and his friends move to a new website
weird that you arent expecting to catch him soon. id have thought someone with the level of skills and Intel you claim would be close to catching him.
I hope I'm wrong about you and that you do catch him but you can't just expect people to believe you without proof.

>my subjective take is the supreme take even though it only knows the context that I have that I refuse to expand upon; regardless, even if I were to expand it, I'm not willing to surrender my original position because I am this chuffed to the point where my perspective is a warped observation that is hilariously off skew

In Poker, we call this a double bluff. I got be lying out of my ass, I could be lying about lying out my ass. The question is, "Are you going to call?" I'm not going to tell you the truth to your face, not here, not publicly. Do you want to extend your context of a situation, or simply keep your subjective, even if wildly incorrect, because hey, at least even if you aren't in the full know, at least your subjective is yours and yours alone.

But, to add more murkiness to the pot, (as is the nature of this mask)
You ever go fishing? Some fish will bite anything, even an empty hook. Some fish require specialized tackles, and bait. Are the fishing pole, the tackle the bait the fisherman, or are three part of the same mechanism with a set goal in mind?

I am asking you, the turtle living in the pond, what your perspective is in that.

As per your latter half, things go at their own pace, because in the criminal justice system, it goes at the pace of paperwork. A slow grind, but one that grinds regardless. That's a good thing, imagine for a moment, you, being from the UK, could be arrested same day for something you posted online, even in two weeks. That would be pretty dystopian yeah?

So in this, what will you do? Continue to swim in the water, look at the hook and be like "Damnable hook, that's all there is to you. You and your flashy colors. I hate you. You bring trouble here" Or will you bite the hook and see something a little bigger, with more context and be introduced a world of context that you never knew where you will see, that I was right and there was never a moment that the fisherman lied?

is that a threat? faggot. just because I dare question the validity of your wild claims? someone telling the truth isn't so insecure about being questioned that they would stoop to the level of threatening someone for asking for proof.
if you had just said that you can't post proof because it would deanonymize you or something id be more inclined to believe you but the way you are acting and what little of your post I could even understand I know you are full of shit.

Mate, it's okay to just say "Hey, in English Einstein" you don't have to be so aggressive in your confession in being incapable or uncomfortable with a form of communication that is not your usual standard. If you like, I can try to put it into your comfort levels.
"Blud finna get woke, or keep sleep on yo take even if hella wrong? If you wanna sleep, cool, but you hella wrong because you ain't woke blud but you own it king."

>Is that a threat?
Did it come off as a threat? I presented you a metaphor, a possibility, I asked you to imagine a world where law enforcement is trigger happy and instantaneous, and you took it as a personal attack. Are you being stupid on purpose or are you able to not conceptualize hypotheticals and understand the nuances of circumstances? Let's run a test of that "Imagine if you didn't have breakfast."

>If you just said the thing I expected you to say, that I didn't communicate, I would believe you at your bluff.

That's the thing, this mask is an unreliable narrator, that is purposefully unreliable narration to asses the person who responds to it.

From the way you replied, what I can tell about you, is that you're not that bright when it comes to conversation, or aren't that quick on the uptick on things, and that when you have a set idea, you stick to it, dismissing context and other possibilities beyond your usual comfort zone as alien. In that, you're a regular internet zoomer, with the mental capacity of a boomer. And that's actually perfectly valid, you're in a wide population of people. Being stubborn, and afraid to leave your realm of context or comfort, and insulting the other party because you can't understand it, or want to apply the work in understanding it isn't a crime.

You aren't a bad person, or a bad guy; you're just a sassy layman. One of God's blessed non complex ones.

dude you were agressively strawmanning while barely making sense there's words missing from ur sentences and shit its genuinely hard to understand. I got the gist of what you were saying but it reads like broken english.
like where you said "your subjective" I was able to figure out that you meant something like "subjective opinion" from the context but you can't just use adjectives as nouns.
>I asked you to imagine a world where law enforcement is trigger happy and instantaneous
clearly you are unfamiliar with the situation in the UK. sorry for assuming that someone who claims to be part of international investigations would be aware of the fact that the police here just randomly arrest people over saying vaguely offensive shit online.
your hypotetical is actually the reality of living in this country so I'm sure you can understand my thinking that your randomly bringing it up in an angry rant of mostly metaphor seemed like it could potentially be a veiled threat.
>If you just said the thing I expected you to say, that I didn't communicate, I would believe you at your bluff.
who are you quoting?
>you stick to it, dismissing context and other possibilities beyond your usual comfort zone
why are you so desperately trying to disparage someone for questioning your claims? surely somewhere deep down you understand that everything you have said pretty much amounts to something along the lines of the navy seal copypasta and that its expected that people aren't going to take it at face value especially when you get defensive when told that you aren't going to be believed without proof.
>You aren't a bad person, or a bad guy; you're just a sassy layman. One of God's blessed non complex ones.

That's the point, it's trying to make you commit work, while being purposefully open, to register your take and figure out what kind of person you are.

>Clearly you are unfamiliar with the situation in the UK.
You have my sympacheese, God Save the King, Part and Parcel, Stiff Upper Lip, Keep Calm, Carry On and all that right govna? This is known as "tossing backhanded sass at someone being aggressive in response. I was back sassing via cultural shade because you decided to be aggressive in response at the expense of your own perceived lack of intelligence.

>Who you are quoting?
Seriously, imagine if you didn't have breakfast.

>Why are you so desperately trying to disparage someone for questioning your claims?
Why do you feel that is what I am doing? I am telling you something, and handing the keys to you, playfully dangling them, and saying "What do you want to believe?" You want something, but at the same time have something, you can have one or the other, but not both.
>That's a pretty creative way of calling someone stupid.
Yes, I was calling you stupid, because you were presenting as, but at the same time, I was forgiving your stupidity, because that's genuinely very common. You aren't unique in that, you're like a very large portion of online users. You have a subjective opinion, a box of personal subjective, that you treat as your own, you mistake it for your identity, and treat anything outside of it as threat. Letting go of this box is like asking you to peel off your skin, asking or teasing you to think outside of it is like asking you to tear out your eyeballs.

And that's normal, that's valid; if you see me as a bad guy in that, shady, or weasel like, congratulations, you blissfully mundane and people like you I want to protect.
>>
>>23633940
>Nitpicking about the specifics of the English language, between two dialects of English, one that calls potato chips "Crispy Salty Chappy Bits" vs "Potato chips"
more quoting shit nobody said.
me explaining why something you said was hard to understand isn't nitpicking and "subjective" is an adjective in both dialects. it has to be followed by a noun or its not clear what you are describing.
>That's the point, it's trying to make you commit work, while being purposefully open, to register your take and figure out what kind of person you are.
I'm pretty sure you were just writing fast and are too proud to admit that you made some mistakes that caused it to be difficult to understand.
>I was back sassing via cultural shade because you decided to be aggressive in response at the expense of your own perceived lack of intelligence.
I think its far more likey you are just human and didn't think of the implications of what you said because you were focussed on something else.
however I don't know you so out of politeness and to keep things civil I will just choose to take your word for it.
>Why do you feel that is what I am doing?
because that's the way you are acting: like someone who is deeply insecure about the validity of their claims being called into question
>I was forgiving your stupidity, because that's genuinely very common.
I don't need backhanded forgiveness for my percieved stupidity from someone with delusions of grandure thanks
>if you see me as a bad guy in that, shady, or weasel like
I actually don't I think you are well intentioned just a bit misguided and that you think too highly of yourself for doing something that countless others do less publically and largely without thanks let alone attempting to cultivate a cult of personality on anonymous forums.

you can respond to my previous post if you like but I'm not going to give a long in depth response as I've made my position adequately clear and we are just going around in circles.

My dude, if we're going to fight like a married couple, the least you can do is buy me dinner.

>I'm pretty sure you were just writing fast
That's a very good take, but it is also something else to check something a little bit more meta, however you cleared that potential underlay, which is why I can be a little bit more friendly, albeit smug and sassy with you. You're free to keep your subjective take on it, I will not correct you in that, because that's not in my best interest. If I was in the business of telling you what to believe, this mask wouldn't be as effective as it is, there are other masks for that specific application.

>You are human.
Hey hey! Awesome! We're getting somewhere, yes, there's a human behind the screen, behind the mask, and the mask and the human aren't entirely the same person. Why does the mask continue to double down on the mask, speak on matters of the mask in a specific way and tone?

>Because that's the way you are acting.
That's the way you are perceiving it, I already told you, "I could tell you the truth, but not here, not publicly." That was the answer I stated earlier.
>I don't need backhanded forgiveness from someone with delusions of grandure.
Good! You shouldn't take it, you need to set up a level of respect from others, and from yourself as well.
>the last bit.
This is the bit that's difficult, because you're both addressing the mask and the human underneath it, confusing the two, while keeping to your subjective box. If you look to the mask, it's some grandeur stage play, a foolish Don Quixote wearing a feather boa, that won't admit a fault, even if the shoes are untied. If you look at the human underneath the mask, of which, you're glimpsing at, you're seeing an actual truth. I'm trying to do the best with the tools at my disposal, and working on what I have, it's not perfect, but it works. Don't confuse a wolf for a man.

Well, everything serves a purpose, even chatter that means nothing. It's useful in ways in ways I don't feel like talking about in a room with multiple eyes. As per your opinion, no, I don't want you to change your opinion of me. I don't want you to believe anything outside of what you believe, because it's not my job or role to make you believe anything, just to paint a picture and say "What do you think?" Your perspective is your own, whether or not you change it or not, is ultimately your subjective.

You've made your position clear, and I appreciate the effort posting in the challenges presented, sorry for the fence strikes, it's the nature of the character.

You also have a good day.

there have been many recent instances where i have lost many hours to an invisible force. the wording may sound schizo and/or cringe but if it aids you read it presently as a cringe way to describe a familiar phenomenon doubtless you have all experienced yourself before. where did the time go? why did i waste my time doing that? not that that timelessness is inherently bad but it is a powerful attribute and thus dangerous. even while writing this post i have found myself losing hours to this force though everyone familiar with authors knows the act of writing itself can have such an effect. however in this case it was not the act of writing itself. as for overcoming this invisible force i have learned of a method by which that can be achieved. it is not new nor easy but it is extremely powerful and that method is to actively observe the force in action. greater minds than i have written extensively on how active observation of the force reduces its potency. though not always instantly intuitive to everyone it is instantly understood upon experience. so again when you ask yourself where did the time go? why did i waste my time doing that? if you would like to gain the strength to direct yourself i would urge you to actively observe the force as soon at it starts to pull you. let me give you forewarning of common pitfalls as someone who is sadly not yet an expert but has ample experience. many times i observe the force only to find myself later being under its spell so to speak. of course while under its spell i am not actively observing it. that is precisely how you lose time. you cannot lose time if you are actively acutely aware of time. it is precisely like when you play a video game and glance at the clock aghast before trying to convince yourself of one more round or turn or run until you later glance at the clock again aghaster. you only lose time in that manner when you lose awareness of the clock. in summary try active persistent observation of the force.

Have you seen Hellraiser?
You opened the box,
You summoned me,
You gave the invitation.
Thus I shared with you such sights to share.
I have no real interest in coming as such unless invited as such. When you speak the bait, the fisherman comes, and says "And what sort of creature are you nibbling this line?"

Take accountability genuinely rather than playing the fool of "I don't know when I said Bloody Mary in front of a mirror that Bloody Mary appeared sorry that Bloody Mary appeared.

Others have the wherewithal and sense not to nibble the bait, so do you now. And you wouldn't believe where the bait nibbles come from. TF2 Forums, Basedjak Posters who are members Hurtcore groups, Hell, even a direct 764 Nexion channel on Telegram for a time being.

There's a sincere difference in stating my presence, and summoning me; you did the latter. And that's on you.
