It may be the pot calling the kettle black, but the beginner board is in bad shape. Try harder.

I think we just have a bad case of spammers. . .

Now why would there be newbs in a begginers board... THAT'S CRAZY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Parelis (Dec 23, 2003)
There's newbs and there are spammers who don't try. Go back a few pages and compare the posts then to the latest flood.

Yea, I can think of 2 or 3 of the top of my head.
Its getting pretty bad, I agree.
Nice way of showing parelis.

Okay, considering my un-1337 skills, I usually stay out of these sorts of things... but ya know... I have to say, Parelis is right. It's gotten awful. Those of us on the beginner board who are here because we want to improve and get constructive criticism from the better artists are getting nowhere because as soon as we post something, we get either 20 "it's kool lol!!!!!!!!111" comments or 20 5-minute pictures saying "i was bord plz coment but not if u r just going 2 be critical!!11" drowning it out so nobody sees it. The beginner board is here for practice and improvement, not posting pointless crap that nobody wants to look at. Remember, even the drool-worthy deities on the advanced and elite boards were new to oekaki once. Being a newbie is no excuse for not trying to get better.

Thanks for bringing it up, Parelis.

taori: drool worthy deities! Great term... mind if I use it more often?

Yes, the spammers are becoming a problem, and this picture is a marvelous example of what it feels like sometimes wading through all the 12 minute pictures. Seriously folks, the longer you spend on a drawing, the more practice you get, the better you'll be. Just spend the extra half hour on it, and you'll be that much happier with yourself.

Yes, the spammers need to stop. N00bs are ok, as long as they improve and except peoples constructive critisism (?).

Ok, ok i admit it... ur right... im probably one of the spammers... but when u give "constructive feedback" well i said please dont give me mean stuff i meant like u can tell me what else i can do to make it better... but do u have to say... "wtf is up with this crazy shit... this is horrible spam u suck loser''
