Ok I'm going to start off by saying I'm awkward and lonely. I'm doing stuffs to try and grow. (BTW yes the pic is of me.)I started a tiktok where I cosplay and dance. I would like to grow to make friends with some content creators I see on the platform. They are a group of ppl that cosplay and go on adventures. I tried to use reddit to promote my dances and cosplays but I've been banned and all I was told is because of disruptive behavior, though no one will tell me what I did wrong with my posts.Are there other platforms I can use to grow my audience?
Thats sussy. But ok ill try again tomorrow after work. What other unwritten rules are there?
>>10974579>What other unwritten rules are there?remember to bump your thread for years
If you're shilling an e-thot OF with tiktok dances in cheap Leg Avenue tier store bought cosplay I can see you getting banned. Like if you're putting a dumb tiktok dance on the forum for cosplay craftsmanship, where people want to see the details of a cosplay's construction that you made yourself, you're gonna' get banned
>>10974581
>>10974554just cosplay and dance. remember to whore yourself out, thats the only way to get big numbers
What are our thoughts on cosplayers who hope to clone Belle Delphine to gain an audience?In countless pieces of media where authors, music writers, artists etc. attempt to not just sample someone else’s work/image, there are some who want to gain fans fast think the only way to do so is to imitate the OG as closely as possible. I think it’s kinda sad to see because everyone should be able to shine on their own without the need to blatantly copy another person’s work.
Belle Delphine is old hatThats what you get when you base your career on looking like jailbait and then age out of it
>>10974529When People try to clone another's image they have to be prepared for the backlash. Mj's, Ariana Grande's clones all face so much backlash and don't even earn a pinch of what the OG can make. Clone fame has to be one of the worst.
>>10974508Lots of girls do it. It's to the point where normies associate cosplay with gooners and sexually charged images. I'm not a fan of it but it's just the way things go. New cosplayers see what's working and imitate the skimpy costumes and make up style. Extra sad seeing these 15 year olds running around in bunny suits because it's so normalized. But that's just one of the consequences. If only men weren't so lustful and willing to give money to these influencers. Even if there was no monetary incentive for them attention is also a currency
There was an 18+ area to the local con, it was a pretty big con/venue. Me and BF went there to see if there was hentai manga or yaoi doujinshi etc, and it was just gooner streamers shilling their cosplay OnlyFans. It was really disappointing.
>>10974508Costhottery was already a thing before Belle Delphine blew up, the only major thing people copied off of her was her makeup. And by this point, it's less that people are copying specifically her look and more that it's the e-girl ouroboros recycling what by now has deviated from Belle Delphine's style from back in the day somewhat. You and me remember Belle Delphine because we were on this site during her heyday, but she's largely forgotten now despite how huge she once was, and most costhots are now copying each other without even knowing who she is/was.>>10974550>Even if there was no monetary incentive for them attention is also a currencyBelle Delphine herself is living proof of this. She made what is basically all the money in the world before her hiatus (instead of blowing all her massive earnings she had her boyfriend/manager invest them, so it actually is infinite money assuming everything was done correctly), and it was without posting a single nude. She never had to do pinups ever again after her hiatus, but the craving for attention as other e-girls began to dethrone her was so much that she came back not only posting nudes but doing hardcore to gain attention.
ramona closet cosplay lolzz
>>10928233She actually looks amazing in Ramona cosplay. Too bad you decided to pic this one picture so you’ll be attracting the incels

What do you think of kids at cons? Good? Bad?Should more cons ban them, I've noticed actual porn stars at Comic Con dressed very revealing and selling their stuff there so maybe that should go 18+
>>10968045It makes sense: “I'll let you go to the convention half-naked if you let me fuck you.”
>>10968220It's just that those stupid parents who don't pay attention to what their kids are probably seeing online—those kids are surely already watching some porn online, and when they saw you, they simply felt desire. How sad.
Lets kids be at cons but only with the parents' understanding they may see some adult stuff, don't make it anyone else's problem.People should be most concerned about what kids are seeing on their phones or tablets, a little T&A at a con won't hurt them.
I hope kids are always allowed at cons because seeing cute young girls in cosplay is like half the reason I go. If kids stop coming to cons, how else am I gonna beat off in my hotel room while thinking about come sexy little Nezuko or Kanna that I saw on the con floor?
>>10947633yes
Hello, I've been into lolita for a while and I've been wanting to actually participate now. The only concern I have is that I am a guy and don't want to bring shame or embarrassment to myself or others. I'm not trans or anything like that, I just enjoy the culture and such. I enjoy egl the most, so I'd focus there. It's not like I'm a stranger to j-fashion, I wear mode/karasu zoku, which already focuses on androgyny. Is this a good idea, or should I save myself and those in the comm from my karmic actions out of respect? Yes, Mana is a man, but that's different and I'm not him.
>>10974448just don't be creepy and wear what works for your body.
>bf says he’ll take me to a lolita fashion store >ask if it is a sweet lolita, classic lolita or gothic lolita fashion store>he laughs and says it’s a nice store>go with bf>it’s kawaii fashion
>>10969615idk about you but the Lolita stuff I like looks like something a 20-something woman would wear in 1895, or something a vampire queen would wear
>>10969615
>>10917456That's why, back when she was still into it years ago, I always ended up buying my wife nice socks or stockings off of sites for stores I knew she had previously used to go with her lolita stuff instead of trying to do the bigger stuff with my lack of knowledge. Finding some stuff you can comprehend when you don't get the rest helps a lot.

>>10933778It's autumn
>>10934533the meteorological summer season starts on June 1 and lasts three months, until September 1.Astronomical summer lasts from the date of the summer solstice until the autumnal equinox, which occurs in the Northern Hemisphere on September 22 or 23Where do you live where it's autumn already?Where I live we can still get heat waves until mid october at the latest. If I get past that point I finally feel like it's autumn even though it officially started ages ago.Also, to clarify why I made that comment; I don't associate hot weather with halloween, and it will be a few months (from when halloween stuff starts popping up in stores, not from now) until halloween is actually there.
not falling off anytime soon
>>10756720It hurts me to this day that I never got to visit the physical store....

>>10970286Doesn't seem like the community is there for these anymore. Very little excitement or hype chatter, and very few posts of gifts. It would be better off it was put to bed if there weren't enough people with their hearts in it.
>>10970368I agree, but even if only 2 people remain who want to exchange gifts, I'd help them connect. Even if it ends up being done in a way that doesn't resemble past events at all, maybe it'd all be done by email. And I don't think any new thread will be created, but if there's any desire to share things with /cgl/ this thread could stay up.But from the looks of it, the event seems to not have much of a future. I was thinking if anything could be done for people to go back and look at old memories, when new threads will no longer be made for the event each year. There probably would not be much interest even in that though to be quite honest.
Is this the last thread
>>10970377>I was thinking if anything could be done for people to go back and look at old memoriesFor what it's worth I for one would really love that, I've fallen out of J-Fash over the years so I haven't been participating or coming to this site much but curling up with a hot cocoa or a peppermint latte to read this thread every year and see all the excited posts is still a big part of how I get into the holiday spirit. It's crazy to think that it's been a decade since Uncle Travis, but if nothing else I'm really grateful for the work all the organizers have put in over the years to make this possible.
>>10973666Probably. But in all honesty, it isn't really my decision to make to end the event. I can say that I won't organize it anymore, but I can't say that no one will organize it. And if someone would want to organize it, I'd be willing to stay in an organzing role too. The issue is that there really doesnt seem to be much interest anymore.>>10973736I'm thinking there should be a centralized place for people to find the threads, at least. But I don't think people would be able to find it. So I'm not sure exactly how it should be done.On another note, the album still hasn't been updated with the images from this or last year, so that's something I'll need to do.
Years ago, when cosplay started getting popular, but also sexual, I remember being a big fan of a certain cosplayer. They turned out to be quite rude to their fans, and I was left being disappointed by it. Later as the years went by, I came upon information that her cosplay hype died down, her twitch and vtuber arc couldn't lift off the ground, and she lost her twitter verification, and just isn't popular anymore. Basically what I'm trying to say in this thread is; fuck that whore. But also how has the cosplay community/scene been? Has it gotten more slutty? Worse? Better? Are people chill, or rude? Tell me your experiences from before (5-10 years ago) v.s now.
>>10970669Yes
>>10902106OP's cosplay is insane, imagine the BRAPs
>>10970669>>10970673The millennials in "the geek crowd" as you put it will be like that, but zoomers onward won't be as much. Zoomers will just say shit because it feels good, so as long as you're not going out of your way to misgender someone who is clearly female-presenting they won't care what you say.
>>10970774Yeah I'm not a dick, I can get along with you if you act normal it's the people that make it their entire personality that I can't really vibe with
>>10902106The cosplay thing should be fun and doesn't need to be sexual but some normies decided to ruin it by making a porn with cosplaying an anime character. I somehow thinking to those who cosplay and do onlyfans vids by making porn vids while they cosplay anime character. I feel you sir
The title says it all, cosplayers that did awesome cosplay but their career were cut short, as they suddenly disappeared without any notice.
>>10969983I remember koujackie
>>10969983

Tank9, a cosplayer and industrial dancer, went Christian and denounced everything:https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=1kmYvx4aQrEMonimusume/Chey/CheyenneA camwhore into anime and Nintendo, had a horrible case of anorexia, lost a magnificent body, seems better these days but has probably shaved 20 years of lifespan.
