OOC EDIT: Since this thread won't die, I find it important to tell you that I'm not all the way gone, just gonna be a lot less active on OTD as this place turns me into someone I don't want to be.
OTD slowly gets more and more annoying each day. Like, this is why I stick to OTRP more than here now. This place is super toxic and I don't feel like I can share anything with you people.
I can list the people I genuinely like and don't have a problem with, and honestly...it's kind of a short list. I like most of you when you're being genuine but that seems to be fleeting.
Maybe it's because I don't understand why practically everyone here has the same sense of humor? (This place is trash, something edgy, something politicalβ’, memes, salt, making fun of people for things that shouldn't be made fun of, and more)
But I'm finding it harder and harder to stand being here. I'm thinking I might leave.
Probably not the forums as a whole, because I'm in some really great roleplays, with people I like to talk to and stuff, but I'll probably leave OTD for good.
So, yeah, I think this will probably be my last thread here. I don't care for OTD anymore, other parts of the forums are still super fun though, so if you really wanted to talk to me, you can find me other places or just shoot me a pm.
If you wanted more specific reasons, feel free to pm me.
Alright, that was it. Carry on.

i mean otd is basically tumblr lite OOC Honestly, my little corner of Tumblr is better than OTD. I know Tumblr is bad in lots of places, but at least for me, my experience on Tumblr has been better than here. I can't talk about anything without someone making a joke about it, I'm afraid to mention certain things because I know I'll be made fun of for it, and frankly, a lot of people here are flat out rude and I'm sick of it and I don't have any patience for this place anymore.

I'm really sorry and I just want you to know I'll miss you a lot. OOC If you ever wanna talk to me, you can pm me, I just won't be around OTD anymore.
I figure I'll linger around this thread for the rest of the day and then just not look at OTD again after.

I don't remember seeing you either and I stopped being active on OTD because I can't stand it. But Im not really trying to justify my actions to you. I don't care if complaining isn't gonna help, I'm fed up and I wanna complain so I am. Simple as that.

Honestly, I'm really starting to feel the same way. I was away from the forums for a week and when I came back I unsurprisingly didn't have any notifications. But OTD tends to lean towards cliques. It used to be a place where you could count on people to say something positive in response but anymore not so much. I've contemplated leaving for a while now. I still check my messages weekly, though, and I'm here if you want somebody to talk to in PM, πβππ π£π, writer buddy xD OOC XD I'll keep that in mind. Maybe one day we should make like, a writer's "den" in that area of the forums. Because I do want to stay away from OTD, but a little writers group would actually be awesome, Y'know?

But yeah, I'll definitely still be around the art forums, maybe even a little more now, depending on how much I intent to draw and share.

if you continue your comic then I'll still see you in the Art Forum
if you do leave completely (or at least all the sections I'm in) then I'll miss you but I agree this place is...draining
that said I do some of the things you said you don't like so maybe I'm one of the people you don't like? if I am just know I don't hold anything against you; I know I haven't exactly helped the place
hope whatever decision you make works out well for you
edit: just read your post right above mine about staying in the AF

I'd like to clarify that I don't mind the humor, if the person can also be reliable, kind, understanding, and knows when that just isn't needed. Sadly there's people here who don't, and they're my main problem.
But yeah, I'm still gonna be around the art forums, might get a bit more bold and post more than just the comic too, who knows.

Well, you've been lovely to have here. Gonna miss that.
It kinda feels like sending you off to the real world, just like when people leave this site entirely; it's good to leave the toxicity.
Despite that, it seems I've restricted myself to OTD these days. Man, these forums are drastically different off of OTD.

Agreed. Sometimes you just need a fellow writer to ask for an opinion and talk with about the crazy things we do xD We should.

OTD being the biggest one. It's why I'm only leaving this one.

I know this is old news, but I just want to make the point that....a lot of the jokes and things made here aren't meant to be taken seriously. Some people apply the frosting of niceness when they say things, and some people apply that frosting by themselves as things come in; I suppose OTD just has more of the latter type of people. Saying that it's toxic for you is valid and fine, but saying the place as a whole is toxic is a bit inaccurate. I guess it just depends on the person, and if this subboard is harming you then you're doing great and being a responsible person.

I'm kind of glad this has been bumped back up into existence because I completely missed this. I am going to miss seeing you around on here, you were pretty much one of our last rays of light on OTD, tbh, but I completely respect your decision for leaving this section! I'll be sure to send you a pm, though<3
