Hardly at all.

Most of the boards on the eastern half (excluding /vp/, /pol/, and /x/) of the site tend to stick to their intended content very strictly and don't usually get involved in board drama. Though it is sad to see him go after 11 years.

Our own mean, ruffly chan.
On the off chance that moot sells the site and we have no where to go, but also so they can make new rules that lolis actually like.

as a former server admin for a series of forums, I have the tools and resources to make this happen. We could have cosplay and jfash subcategories, entire buy/sell/trade sections, etc. Ahh, imagine the possibilities of an all-powerful Rufflechan.

however, theres no way it could work unless it got enough traffic and enough donations to run. otherwise it'll constantly go out ala lacemarket.
How would you gulls feel about a full anonymous-enabled forum dedicated solely to cosplay and jfash? Do you think there's a market at the moment for something functional and appealing to free speech? Have we even the numbers to make it happen, or would we go back to the chans and the more or less dead EGL?

It has nothing to do with either cosplay or Jfash, though, it's just shit talking. Hell in some threads were lolita is brought up (like when PT is bursting out of yet another AP print) some anons are actually kind of hostile to lolitas. If we're migrating, I wouldn't want to migrate there.

Those all don't stick to their content - they're some of the shitpostiest boards on this site. Even /b/ has less shit, and that's thankfully for the anon IDs. /pol/ bring exemplary - there will be no saving that board.

cgl's moderation is shit and we have way too many normalfags and fedoratippers from other boards. I'd love to have a real cosplay/jfash/egl-themed board but the problem is that people are so accustomed to cgl that they probably wouldn't visit the new chan at all. cgl is a slow board already so getting enough traffic to keep people interested in it would be a challenge.

Think this was in an Asuka thread.

Anyway on topic- I'd love to have a rufflechan, then we could have separate boards for drama/sales/cosplay/j-fash etc. Don't think we'd get enough traffic for it though.

Can we please? Part of cosplay is looking like your character in face and body. It would be nice to have gulls share tips, especially when it comes to changing the over all appearance of your body to fit a character (getting bigger thighs and smaller upper body/ building up forearms/etc) as body types change from character to character.

Lolita and other J-Fashions usually require a very thin body type, and there's no way in hell that you're going to have a successful thread on /fit/ about becoming daintier/ softer. It would be nice for people losing weight as well, as I know many people will do so in order to fit into brand.

On top of that, over all health is a topic rarely discussed in depth on /fit/, and it's far more applicable here, as your over all well being and diet effect aspects of beauty that seagulls care more about (hair/skin/nails/ etc.).

There's definitely room for it on this board and I feel it would help promote a greater sense of camaraderie and board culture among the users as well.

I'm all for it. Maybe if we were discreet about it and had it under the guise of how to alter your body for cosplay (and including stuff like how to contour your face do eyebrows and nails to fit a character) or fit into a brand. Or a general cosplay/con health thread. I've been hitting the gym more often because I'm planning a more revealing cosplay and I'd love to share fitness tips with fellow seagulls.

I didn't. Like yourself, I was leaving because cgl was unreadable with all the multiple dramu threads (like, multiple threads for one person), and then moot banned them, and now I can't leave because I actually like it here now.

I'm so glad we have the hide thread function now, too, at least if the dramu threads come back I can just hide them. Though I might end up leaving anyway if too many idiots try out the "omg you haven't heard of x person? It's cgl's hottest topic!!11!". Seriously, dramu's a junk topic that not all of us care about.
