    Skjold buddy did something happen? Because we're always here to talk about these things if you want (even if it is a Minecraft animation forum).
    And if you actually just felt the need to say it, aww! We appreciate you too man! We're all glad you exist, the forums wouldn't be the same without you.

    Skjold reacted to Rollo in So we’re finally in a new generation of mine-imator forums it seems.   
    To be honest I don't like it. There's this kind of atmosphere around newer users that's just pretty toxic in my opinion. There are people who make content that is just, well, bad. And that's not inherently an issue but the real problem is that these same people tell each other that they're doing great. They give those people the mindset that what they're doing is just fine and there's no room for improvement, when that should never, ever be a mindset anyone should have. There are always ways to improve, and if we don't believe there are, no one grows. This probably isn't something many people have noticed (or cared about), and who knows, maybe I'm delusional. But there's a term over in the world of marriage counselling (I know, now I sound like a complete lunatic), "codependency", a very well-known concept of extremely dysfunctional relationships. Just a thought. Again, I'm probably just crazy.
    Something I've also noticed is that a lot of the newcomers aren't really treating this like a forum. I've noticed a lot of people just feel like they have to reply with something, or that they have to make multiple status updates about this one thing. For example - I'm not going to call anyone out, but - there was a rig that was posted recently and the first reply is basically "oh, okay." That doesn't help anyone. It takes up space that could be used for constructive criticism, or even nonconstructive criticism I dunno just say something if you're going to take the time to reply. I'm probably being picky here but this seems like a nonproductive atmosphere that I don't want to come to this forum. It almost feels more like a Discord in a sense that you can come here and hang out, as long as you at least say something. You don't have to bring new conversations to the table, you just need to show that you exist. That's not necessarily a bad thing for, say, a chatroom, but this is a website built on starting new conversations. We don't care if you're present. No one will notice you if you say "oh". Your reputation is built entirely upon what new stuff you bring to the table. If you had a hundred Fad wallpapers that were exclusively two white dots on a black background, yeah people won't respect you at the time. But if you make one original, good wallpaper after that, your entire reputation will be built entirely on that new thing. We don't say "Yeah this wallpaper is good, but you made a Bendy and the Ink Machine rig a while back sooooo" (Your reputation doesn't have to be built on creations either, I was just using it as an easy example. Starting good conversations is also just as appreciated). No, that's immature and we don't do that.
    Wow look how long that turned out to be. I don't even know if this atmosphere exists or not. Sorry about that.
    TL;DR: We need to stop encouraging bad creations, no one will grow and criticism is always a good thing. We also need to remember that reputation is based on good presence, not just presence.
