And...I'm Gone

Wed Jul 22, 2009, 5:49 AM
Boy, if I ain't a waffler, I'll tell you what. Look folks, I've only been back for eleven days, but I don't think my goal and this site's goal are really on the same page. Put a portfolio here? Nah, I'll just make one in real life, it's not necessary to display it online. Gallery? What I draw really doesn't float towards any subject worthy of serious consideration, I know. To make friends? Oho, you had me goin' there for a minute. Basically, unless I was contributing to the site in some way (ie- being on staff, being a great artist in general and setting an example, etc), there's no point in me being here. Plus, I think that I'm changing the standards of my work when I make pictures or when I'm choosing my subject matter, which is okay, but I want to have the freedom to draw anything and everything. And I mean anything and everything that comes to mind. Things that would fall outside DA policy.

So what happens now? Well, I'm gonna start taking down pictures one by one, and then find a way to close this account. And then, drift out to some other place where my idea of drawing pretty much anything is allowed. I don't know where that is. It'll be a mystery!

Update: However, I will still use my account to lurk through galleries and pages without the occasional advert and maturity filters. From this point, no more comments will be made from me or will be answered by others. Just silently lurking around.

lol, so you want to make an ED article about me? Feel free, more pageviews for me I suppose. I really don't see the reason you want to.

Taken from the ED talkpage on deviantART:
>Wannabe troll and literal thirteen year-old girl

Since when did I say I was a troll, or wanted to be one? Oh, and get the age right, sweet pea. It's 15.

>I think her case stands out because people need to learn a lesson (not a tough guy threat) about what happens when you try to swagger around and act nonchalant while trolling

Oh god, I'm so scared about an ED article that will only say "lul sonic fag durp dee durp she's 13 hurrr"

>but she's more of a amateurish provoker.

And provoking deserves ANOTHER dA user article? When the site already has at least a hundred?
Jesus Christ lol

>Also, she's a weeaboo

Do you even know the MEANING of weeaboo? Seriously sweetie, research for once.

Eh, I take it all back.

That 'erotic' picture of Tails and Sally was drawn when I was about 13, and it was done so in a funny context.

'Furries', as a term, didn't even exist when that picture was drawn.

You shouldn't talk smack about people behind their backs.
:iconross-irving:
Oh yeah, that comment I made.

Look Chad, I'm not one to talk about people behind their backs. I knew full well that when I posted that, anyone else could read it. With that being said, I think my comment has been taken out of context as something negative. Far be it from me to try and assert some kind of moral authority.

As far as the actual picture, I believe you when you say it was drawn in a funny context. I've done that kind of stuff, too. However, whether the term existed or not (and the furry fandom has been around since the mid-1980's, so I'm sure it did exist then), the picture has certain qualities that can be interpreted as, well, furry!

Heck, you should see some of the stuff I've drawn that hasn't been posted here or anywhere on the internet, and possibly never will be. I've got some kind of taste. That's also to try and attract a wider variety of viewers to my account, so I don't get visited by one particular group of people (furries).

Don't take it personally, Chad.
:iconchadthecartoonnut:
Just wanted to pop on by and tell you you're a good commenter, and you often have insightful things to say. And you appear to be a really good artist, too. :)
:iconross-irving:
I'm flattered that you think I can draw well. I can only hope to get better as I am now practicing more realistic drawings, starting off small by trying to get the outer contours of what I'm drawing and the negative shapes.

Thank you, Chad.
:iconchadthecartoonnut:
I do recommend drawing things from reality instead of cartoons and Sonic stuff. Actually you'll find that the better you get at 'real' stuff, the better your cartooning will be as well. ;)
:iconfettachini:
You come off as a very interesting guy, I quite enjoy reading your comments and journals.
:iconross-irving:
Well thanks a bunch! I'm glad you think so.
