    Are you trying to insult my taste in art? Or are you just generally insensitive?

        Telling someone off when they are being an incorteous couth is not mutually exclusive with having a thick skin. Learning not to let assholes affect you, doesn’t have to mean you start ignoring rudeness when you encounter it.

        The opposite. To ignore is to forgive and even accept such behavior. If you have the fortitude to withstand it, and wit to retort it, it makes you the MOST suitable to tackle it.

        You have called a piece of art I like “pointless” and at my pointing out the insensitivity of doing so, you have chosen to double down by claiming your opinion is fact.

        Would you care to attempt to explain how your behavior is not a “dick move” dripping in passive aggression? Or would you like to own this playground behaviour by saying something along the lines of “yeah, I’m being mean on purpose!”.

        As for your complaints, the applicable community rules are as follows:

        1. Shared artwork must contain a witch or witch adjacent character

        There is no mention of activity, background, or “aTmoSPhErE”, me and 42+ other people liked it. I don’t think you can claim your statements about a lack of merit are anything like “FaCt”.

        Get over it. If you can’t, take a deep breath, and look within.

          We disagree, I explain why. I don’t think I am being insensitive, my opinion is as valid as yours, I explain it. You are free to disagree. I don’t see where assholishness comes into play.

            So you would claim it is a fact that a character alone cannot have something like “atmosphere”?

            Your initial comment is already rude, as you’re effectively complaining that I posted the “wrong” thing, on the first post to break 10 upvotes in months, in a near-dead community.

              I find it more polite to explain the downvotes than just downvoting. And communities require discussion and disagreement. No one upvoted my opinion, I guess you were the one to downvote it, so there is no way to know who is more aligned with the majority. This is indeed the type of content I feel does not steer the group in the good direction and I will probably leave if it dominates.

              Of course it is subjective, and saying that picture convey no atmosphere is just me being polite. The pose, the clothing, the lack of action, actually gives it an atmosphere: a pin-up/waifu atmosphere. This is not really what I am looking for here.

                Have you even considered the most obvious course of action?

                Post more of the content you want to see, yourself.

                That’s literally what I’m doing, and why I’m so completely dismissive of you. What the hell would be the point of me posting stuff you want to see, when the whole reason I do it in the first place, is to inspire more of the content I like?

                To complain to the people actually posting content, is not discussion. I’m not posting this content for you. I’m posting it for me. Because I like it. To converse with a poster about what kind of content should be posted as a mere consumer of the content is barely a voice worth noting.

                But the instant you post yourself, that is an equally loud statement about what you feel a place is for.

                Your feedback is unhelpful, and insulting in the way you present it as a courtesy to “help” posters please you. As if that’s the goal.

                I don’t care that, or why, you don’t like it. Downvoting and moving on is far more useful, because if the votecount actually indicated that the content is unwelcome, I could just post it somewhere else.

                It doesn’t, which doubly means your view will have absolutely zero impact on how I post, or I suspect on how anyone else posts.

                  Sorry for not liking the content you post on a platform designed to comment on posts.

                  You asked for specifics, I gave them.

                  I post when I find content I like.

                  Is it your art? If not do you realize how overreacting you are?

                    Sorry for not liking the content you post on a platform designed to comment on posts.

                    Ok? Nothing about a platform being for communication means you HAD to go out of your way to make a point of your displeasure.

                    You asked for specifics, I gave them.

                    No I didn’t. I stated things, and asked nothing until I directly asked about how and why you choose your words. I tried to nicely inform you that you made no sense and no one cares.

                    To claim this post doesn’t belong still makes no sense.

                    I post when I find content I like.

                    Cool. I actively look for it on a daily basis. You should try doing that instead of leaving comments that effectively do little more than ask me to find it for you.

                    Is it your art? If not do you realize how overreacting you are?

                    Obviously not. I credit the original creator and link to their accounts.

                    And again, your “feedback” is pointless. I will not heed it.

                    I do not like that you commented. You did not have a nice thought to share, and you should have kept it to yourself. There was no “kind” way to comment what you have commented.

                    If I can say more to make sure you do not do it again, I will. You may call that “reaction” as oversized as you like.
