>>7776093I'm beg and I've made 2 friends
friendsmaxxing is great
>>7776093I appreciate a lot the fact that I am broken and my mind doesnt work as it should, otherwise my chronic lack of friends might have driven me insane and depressed a lot time ago.
>>7776093Every art discord I’ve joined has been dead
>>7776093>Begs have a better time making lasting art friendsThen I'm sure you'll make loads of friends OP, ha ha ha.
the whole concept of friendship is alien to me
>>7776238why dont you friend them and keep in t ouch
>>7776093stop this RP you're playing, this the internet and I'm sure you've been here longer than me
>>7776452I think the whole concept of “internet friends” is weird.Not a single person has ever tried to “keep in touch” with me, ever. I barely even understand what that means.
friends? how is that going to improve my art?
>>7776093 What is this false hope most begs get ignored until there good. i seen artists move to a locked VC because of them
>>7776093pls give discord because im also beg for a year and I still havent made friends :( I just get nodraws that never want to share screen while drawing together or people that hates vcing.
i'm too shy to even make online friends
>>7776093Unfortunately none of this happened
>>7776093this happens but only some people in the group make itsomeone's at an AAA studio, someone's making patreon bucks, but most people are either still begs or have given up art entirely and work regular 9-5s
>>7777245my artfrens redline my art and teach me how to improve my work all the time.
>>7777779>work regular 9-5sill never be a wagey
>>7776093every discord i join kicks me out. im losing hope at this point
>>7783081post chat logs
>>7776093why are you giving begs hope
>>7776093Now imagine having actual IRL freinds that really matter instead of pretending to be normal by coping with this crap kek.
>>7783081stop being an autistic racist then?
>>7789044STFU YOU STUPID JEW!
>>7785867>actual IRL freinds that really matterWhatever boomer. I bet you got a job by just walking up and saying you’d like to work there, too.
>>7789093yeah checks out.
>>7776093>>joins random discordI vomitI'm happy for you if you're lucky with discords thoygg
>>7776093I found a comfy discord from a streamer that isn't a cancerous lib tard woman drawing shitty art. I am so happy
>>7777223This. I give fuckall about internet acquaintances and hardly see them as real people. I've grown disgusted with most "friends" I've made online via art, both with artists and clients, and basically just cut them off. Unless you are mutually getting something from the relationship, like consistent commissions or exchanging meaningful critique, don't waste your time, because chances are they're just covertly using you. >have commissioner friend>always poor mouthing and wanting cheap art>see he's commissioning more expensive artists with larger followings Cut that shit>art friend>starts singing praises of AIdropped>art friend >inks and colors my sketch as a collab>conveniently seems to forget to give me credit until I remind himNope
>>7776093Dude I can't find any friends. Not at discords, not irl, not fucking anywhere. It's actually pissing me off how people who like doing art also get panic attacks when asked just to draw with someone. How the hell am I supposed to consistently do art in a world that's telling me constantly to give up and switch to AI?
>>7776093The only art discord that lasts is one that is invites only. Public, anyone-can-join- discords die within a year or less
>>7791523Dumbass>>7776093I outlived every art friend i made. They all never improve. They never go next level. Or they just quit. I am always the only one taking things seriously. Not just art but its how it was in my life. I am always the only one who is actually invested until the end. Video games, new hobbys, school, etc. And art too. I guess most people are just incompetent and i am the 1%
>>7791029You sound like an insufferable faggot that invites other insufferable mongrels towards you.if clients are complaining about you then your shit just sucks and will only attract shitty clients. Friends are the same way, good attracts good, but only other shitheads attract other shitheads. Have some self reflection, faggot.I generally agree that most internet friends are usually not actually your friends unless you have been meeting IRL, talking via voice or have seen each other’s face. That or you genuinely like each other’s work and personality for a long time, which is very rare. That said, have you tried actually talking to these people?
>>7776093Truth nuke.discord.gg/R3NtN4Sbch
>>7783081Hmmmm.>>7791659Maybe not yet. Try this.
>>7777412Hmmmmmmm. Maybe try this >>7791659
>>7791613I'm the same though you sound like a kid and with low self awareness so we probably wouldn't get along.
>>7776093Wholesome
>>7776093this makes me happy as a fellow beg thank you
My art friend disappears from the face of the earth for like a year at a time and comes back with massive gains every timeWhy are you like this? I want to learn, too...
>>7791659this discord is cliquey as fuck and the constructive crit is very hit or miss, but it is a generally good group of people
>>7791624>shifting the blameConvincing argument faggot. Blocked.
>>7791624Most of my problems were rooted in being too friendly in my internet interactions and people would tend to take advantage. In terms of commissioners in particular, I have better experience with clients to whom I'm colder and less personable.
