...Ok yes I know that, hence why I pointed out that no one was doxed. Or do you not understand what doxing means? Hint: It's not when someone addresses you by your first name or screen name, it's when someone posts your full real name, address, phone number, place of work/school, parents' phone numbers, parents' workplaces, etc. Nothing like that happened.

And don't even begin to tell me that discussing John or whoever is a reply made to attack a specific person, you know as well as I do that rule was put in place to stop Kota and PT and Ashley THREADS, not posts within a thread discussing comms.

The "as well as" part means that doxing is not the only predatory behavior that's not permitted. Also, notice the part where the rule says both "threads and replies being made to attack a specific person", not just threads.

Two mods have bailed, as well as a few members, John and the remaining mods have been publicly called out several times, and yet they're still trying to save face and pretend they're just, "showing support for a convention that has given them so much" it's really pathetic.

An arcade he used to own before it was shut down due to his massive debts. I don't know the entire story intimately because it was a while ago and I was told it secondhand, but similar to his meddling in the lolita community, he got in with the local fighting game community and favored certain players in tournaments. This lead to stuff like bracket-rigging and most notably sending a favored player to a major tournament instead of the person who actually qualified. Then after he couldn't squeeze more money out of people, PZ up and closed, leaving the community without a venue to play in. He basically singlehandedly screwed that community over as far as competitive play for a while.

Here's an archive that sort of glosses over it:

Oh and also, he loaned/brought over arcade cabs from game companies and never paid for them, painting the entire US arcade scene in a bad light with those companies and basically guaranteeing they'd never do direct business/send cabs over to US venues again (or at least for a while). So basically, he burned his bridges and ruined communities' reps until he couldn't anymore, then moved on to the lolita community.

Got a group with a useless comm mod and members. 100+ people and barely 20 active, others are cos-players, lurkers or members who've moved on from lolita.
Thinking of maybe making a state comm group so active people from the surrounding comms can join up.

I'm the mod of a FB comm (possibly same place?) and we have basically the same policy. In addition, we have a public page for the group that random people can message to be let in to the private group. When someone asks to join the group, we check their mutual friends, and what groups they are part of. If they are part of many of the major Lolita groups (LSE, CoF, etc) then we'll usually let them in even without a mutual friend in the group. But we do get completely unrelated people trying to join at times, because they think we're the taco shop called Lolita's...

The comm I know of is full of nice girls, except the admin of the Facebook group and group in general at meets is so full of herself. Every meet she comes across as a bitch and talks with a very sarcastic undertone, yet nobody really batters an eyelid.

Last meet was at an art gallery and it was cool, apart from no official time was set & some lolis couldn't find the meeting point because admin chick decided to already go into the museum with half the group aka her clique and failed to keep in contact.

A fairly new Lolita in the group planned a day out in the city for tea & a Japanese culture exhibition just recently and put up a huge paragraph of waffle about it on our official wall so that could be the next event to look forward to. The girl is very sweet and planned it out really well, yet the "leader" was openly mocking her at said art gallery meet saying that she comes across as 'fucking stupid' with how hyped up she seemed about it.

I don't know what her issue is, but she really needs an attitude check. The cunt puts me off going to any future meets, negativity surrounds her like a bad omen. Hopefully the other Lolitas will see the light soon.

There's this bitch that tries so hard it's pathetic, but what's worse is she actually has fans on her shit Facebook page. Says a lot about how many idiots there are.
Literally all she does is pull shit out of her closet and goes ta-da, this is my cosplay. Lazy with zero effort put into it. The only reason she has any fans is probably because she is a huge slut and will wear tiny outfits and even strip tease, ANYTHING to get a following.
I'm not kidding when I say she is a 5 at most and has a pretty gross body, not a healthy weight by any means.

So much drama from one but hurt landwhale in our comm who can't take that working out, dieting, shape wear and in worst case surgery is one way to fit into lolita. <- This said by an mod after she had given the girl every opportunity there is like sewing, re-sew, cutom taobao and all around. Heck, she even said to the girl that she could come and try some of her dresses and see what needs to be done to make her fit in it.

She even offered the girl sewing lessons and no, all this isn’t good enough. We have to make it ok to post replicas for the landwhales in the comm. So the mod wrote what I stated above. The whale got so fucking but hurt she started to lie in the com that moderators told her to get Gastric bypass surgery
, messaging other moderators and left such an awful message to the first mod after she wrote to her and apologized. Blocked her so she couldn’t answer and left the group.

It seemed like everything calmed down. So I'm confused. If Markie had so much going on why wasn't someone else contacted out of consideration for all the stuff shes going through?
Unless there wasn't much to be done? But then If there was never much of a problem, why leave in the first place? only to come back a day later when things were calm?

Does anyone here have someone in their comm that they suspect is mildly/moderately mentally delayed who causes trouble? I recently had a girl like that in my comm damage my BtSSB parasol because she was careless with it and tried to open it in a car. I ended up being able to sorta fix it and told her not to worry about replacing it because I didn't want to have to deal with her word salads and lack of understanding of the situation anymore. She sent me this after I told her to be careful with other people's things. I have no idea what to make of it, but something about it makes me even more angry.

Yeah, this was not the first Facebook exchange about the parasol; I told her that if I could fix it I wouldn't make her pay, but if I couldn't then I would need a replacement. Then shit got weird and she asking me when my birthday was (like she was going to replace it as birthday gift?) and saying that paypal kicked her off and she couldn't use it because we lived far away from each other (like 100 miles)? I know she doesn't have a job and I think she lives with parents, but I don't have their info to get them involved.

Honestly, if it were any other girl in the comm, I would have asked for a replacement even though the parasol looks mostly okay now. I didn't tell her it was okay because she is delayed, I was just so sick of making heads or tails of what she was trying to say. I repeated myself over and over and she just didn't get it.

I just wish there was a way members of the group could pic mods. there were three Ohio comm mods, but another one got added because I think the girl was a friend of one of the three original mods.

I'm not sure how other comms figure mods and shit out, but that doesn't seem right?

Cute people can be nasty bitches. I admit she is cute, but her looks don't reflect her personality.

Basically joined the comm for the lulz apparently, posted pictures all over cgl during a time where there was an influx of cosplayers and steampunk people looking for remotely similar groups to join. Lots of newbs, many of which have shown noticeable improvement by now. Wrote a textwall rant about altering brand that ended up on btb. It's one thing to have an opinion, and I can respect that. But this was on a whole other level of crazy. Anyway that was the straw that broke the camel's back. Basically took it way too personal and began going on a crazy witch hunt, which eventually ended in her samefagging up another comm bitching thread, posting pictures of herself and her real name in attempts to point it to someone else attacking her. Backpeddling, etc. Going on and on about others being fat, but sells off her brand because she's too fat for it and has sausage fingers herself. After she left it's been fairly quiet. Though once in awhile she comes on and cries a woe is me MY comm that I'm no longer a member of and never was interested in to begin with is full of itas. ablublu.

There's more, like huge textwall dissertations, craziness, blaming everything on having a bad day at her terrible job. I have bad days too but jfc. There's bad days and then there's mental issues. There's probably more I'm missing or don't know about.

Fact is, no comm would have her. She'd be out the moment she pulled that shit anywhere. Not even the Aussies would take her, since she seems to glorify them so much.

Im sure other annons are the ones saying stuff. Just saddens me that people who are apart of the community care enough to trash talk, but not enough to do anything constructive to make the community better.

On a side note, I think the mods of the comm do the best they can to keep creepers, spammers, sissys, cosplay dablers, and trouble makers out of the comm, and in the end that's what they're there for. They aren't there to judge people and make sure they're fashion sense is worthy enough to grace the community with their presence. Maybe it's like that in some comms, but not here.

As far as fashion, do I think I dress perfect? No. I'm still getting comfortable with more detailed coords instead of playing it safe. However, I've never been posted here, and my photos arent super hard to find, so I'm sure it's safe to say not all of ohio or its mods are ita.

That's the problem. What are good ways of "bettering" the comm? And what do you mean by "bettering"? Hatching all the newbies from their ita cocoons into beautifully dressed butterflies?

IMO, giving advice when none was asked for is pretty rude. I know some people disagree, but I don't go up to someone I think is ita and give them advice out of principle.

New people won't research, even though there are resources listed in the group. New people won't listen to advice. New people will wear their cat ears with their "lolita."

Bettering the comm means actively working to help everyone improve. Ignoring the fact that someone is dressed like they just walked out of HotTopic circa 2004 isn't being polite or nice, its coddling at its finest. You don't have to be rude about the way you approach someone but you can gently tell them that a proper blouse would look better instead of a polo shirt or that they need longer skirts. You can even offer to give them a cheap Bodyline blouse or skirt that you no longer wear to soften the blow and help them improve. I think comms should be about growth, not inane hand holding for the sake of being nice.

In my comm (none of the ones being discussed here, obviously), this kind of thing is exactly what the core group does. The veteran girls and event organizers are constantly going out of their way to help the new girls, and many of them do end up improving after just a few months with the main group.

This.
The mods and other members tried to provide tools and links to help noobs, and I've seen people politely post concrit about things and advice be taken. Is everyone going to listen? No. Is everyone going to have good fashion sense even after "years and years of experience". No. That's the risks of larger communities and groups in general, not just in lolira but everywhere. You have to deal with a lot of different skill levels. Not everyones is going to fit your standards, but you just associate more personally with the ones that do, and be at least cordial with the ones that dont. That's not lolita, that's just life.

>> No.7754177

>>7754165
This exactly.

There's been plenty of times where people have posted pictures of their coords for advice or concrit and it's been given. Hey that blouse doesn't work, here's a link to an affordable option.

But if they aren't willing to listen, they won't. At that point, move along. When they are ready, they'll change. But you can't make a person change for you. That's life.

Most of the times, the people truly invested in the fashion will do what they can to improve and better themselves even if it's a very slow improvement.

See, if you personally feel like there's no way to better the comm, why do you think the mods should somehow magically be able to fix things? They have done everything they have possibly could aside from taking them home and dressing them themselves.

First of all, every single time someone has posted questionable handmade material or non-loliable sales, it's ALWAYS the mods who are stepping up and saying that something isn't quite right. They are doing their jobs. Everyone else is too uncomfortable to say anything.

Secondly, the mods have spent a lot of time creating guides for the community that are pretty spot-on.

They have hosted meet-ups with accessories and brand items as prizes with all the money coming out of their own pockets. They run panels at anime conventions to educate people about the fashion.

There are plenty of ways to give criticism without actually being rude. The fact that you assume new people will never change is the reason you think the community is bad in the first place. If every new person never did research, there wouldn't be a single good lolita in the entire world. If it makes you that angry, you need to start helping instead of spectating. You need to educate instead of berate. Through my membership in the comm, I have seen so many members grow and flourish. Some people don't have as much money so that process is going to take longer, but every meet-up I go to, I see improvement as people get settled into the style.

If you want to better the community, just do what you do best. Wear lovely coords, share photos, come to meets, and eventually the people around you will get the idea. They look at your outfit and start to see the difference between theirs and yours. Start discussion questions where people can share their ideas about the fashion and then you can interject your opinions in a way that doesn't involve being rude to them.

Basically, more polished than your basic beginner, sure. There's still plenty to nitpick here. Especially for someone claiming to be miles ahead of everyone else.

Red is unbalanced, bag and shoes on the bottom. Could use a little extra up top with a necklace or an additional hair accessory (a beret for example would look nice and tie it together well). The cardigan looks wonky and boxy buttoned over like that, especially on a larger figure. Go with one button up top rather than several. Could use more accessories. Not enough to break up the white areas. White tbh can be rather boring and needs to be played up if you're using it. These socks do little for large legs. Also, awkard, overused ita in her first lolita dress pose.

Jelly of what? Bad grammar and not knowing there's not an apostrophe in "coordinate"? topkek

Also, yes Misako poses that way too but she does it with a straight spine and it looks best when you're directly facing the camera. Since you've got two Christmas hams for legs and both toes are pointing away from the camera, you look like you're about to fall over while holding in a desperate need to piss. Stand up straight, and your legs are big enough you probably shouldn't even bother crossing your legs to pose in the future because your back leg will probably disappear behind the front one and you'll look even more unbalanced (again, hams).

Since you decided to go full fucknut and try to loltroll me I'm going to go ahead and critique your coordinate. I'll try to be nice even though you really don't deserve it because this advice might help someone else who's not as much of a twat as you.
Think of your coordinate in thirds: top, middle, and bottom. Your top third doesn't contain any large amount of red at all while your bottom two thirds have large red eye-catching pieces that draw your attention there instead of equally dividing your attention across the entire coord. Your wig looks like a rat's nest and sorely needs to be detangled, and learn how to tie your neckties properly. Also, those socks make your legs look even larger than that are, stick to tights (in darker colors if you can manage).
Also, stop being a cunt and stop self-posting and then pretending you didn't.

So I just moved to Seattle and I was wondering about the comms in the area. I'm really new to lolita and I want to slowly move in and test the waters because I only have one lolita item (a skirt) and I'm going to mostly be self making or altering items.

Okay, I'm done. I just can't win on an anonymous board and I knew it was going to be like this. But I tried to defend myself anyway and surely enough, the shit flinging only intensified so thats great. I don't know if the anon who posted my pictures follows me on Twitter or Tumblr or maybe even Facebook but either way, thanks a lot bro. You helped out a lot. I couldn't have done this without you. 10/10 wingman.

This has been a spectacular evening, thanks gulls.

Who the fuck does she think she is? Is she actually mentally retarded? In what world would a stranger a dress, let alone rare expensive brand?
