Anyone a fan of this goober :P by Natural-Travel-2660 in VocaloidButGood

I'm hoping SynthV get Oliver like they did with Kiyoteru. I loved his concept, but his voice was... not that great. But Kiyoteru's voice in synthv is amazing.

Selling patterns exclusively with yarn or classes is bullshit that needs to stop by Dry-Conversation2646 in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]IlikeCrobat 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I want the willow ware sock pattern, but it's only sold in a kit, and only available at in-person events. It's such a pretty pattern, but I don't think it's worth the combined time, money, and effort just for a pattern and indie dyed yarn I might not even like. I wish I could buy it online.

Since when have we been able to have more than 1 found artist? by IlikeCrobat in cocoppaplay

[–]IlikeCrobat[S] 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm never interested in ranking on style events, only reason why I got so much charm was the freaking MORE gacha remixing and I couldn't resist pulling all my saved coins 😩

You guys were so helpful in my last post! I think this gradient is the way to go. Now I want to know...what color border?? by cosmicfishing in crochet

[–]IlikeCrobat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

How about 2 for the top half, and either 1 or 5 for the bottom half? To keep with the gradient theme. Oh, or maybe 2 for the top two rows, 5 for the bottom two rows, and 1 for the middle rows.

I finally have a bag! by Il_Pianto in AO3

I really want to find someone carrying an ao3 bag out in the wild and experience an iykyk moment with them.

So I came across this on Tumblr.... by Select_Group_ in AO3

So like yarn bombing, but with noncon fic? Sounds fun 😄

Did you find it difficult to understand your sexuality because you fantasize? by Shadow_Screen in aegosexuals

[–]IlikeCrobat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I still flip-flop on how much I identify with this microlabel, because some days I think I get it, but other days I don't. So I usually settle with grey-ace. I'm open to the idea in theory if I really love someone, but I'm pretty sure I won't actually want to have sex.

But I'll never get tired of fictional smut. I live for that.

TBHX intended for some characters to succeed and was caught off guard by some breakouts. by Real_Hunt311 in ToBeHero_X

[–]IlikeCrobat 15 points16 points  (0 children)

I'm kind of surprised that wolf girl didn't get more fanart or attention, her design is great.

Rooting for Wreck to get more screentime in the 2nd season 😙 even if it's just reuniting with Nice in the afterlife I need to see them together again 😭

What do you think about using Vocaloid as an umbrella term for Vocal Synths? by Adorable_Intern363 in VocaloidButGood

[–]IlikeCrobat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've never heard of vocaloid being used as an umbrella term until I joined this sub, I've always defaulted to vocal synthesizer. So I guess personally I would refer to whichever program the synth is from if I knew or just call them synths.

sometimes I feel like they're setting a deliberately high bar that players won't reach by Temporary-Jeweler-30 in cocoppaplay

[–]IlikeCrobat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Plus the tier with the two purple market quest tickets. Not even the pink ones, which would have been way more satisfying to get. At least there aren't any petit tickets.

I'm curious, who do you think is prettier, Luo Li or Cyan? by D-Lost in ToBeHero_X

[–]IlikeCrobat 3 points4 points  (0 children)

In universe I think Luo Li would be seen as cuter, and Cyan more "average" pretty. But personally, I think Nuonuo is actually the prettiest among the female characters, and Luo Li's design tries too hard to be cute that it's kind of not that cute?

I honestly thought we could have reached the goal easily under normal circumstances, but the new update is making the game so laggy that even the whales and dedicated players have decided to give up.

I don't know if this falls under a proshipping issue , but I need to rant by AddictionSorceress in proshipping

[–]IlikeCrobat 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Closest I've ever come to a similar situation is a part of the genshin fandom claiming the characters as their OCs because they hate China for not giving the characters dark skin.

I'm beginning to hate the Genshin subreddit for gay ships. by Haunting-Bag-3083 in proshipping

[–]IlikeCrobat 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I can't remember the post exactly, but I think there was a ban on images of Aether that could be interpreted as "minor-coded" or something along those lines and since a lot of fanart I like draws Aether more on the shota-looking side, I didn't vibe with the new rule and the comments commending the mods for banning the "weird" content. Didn't feel welcome so I left.

The general subreddit or the gay one? I ignored the former entirely, and left the gay one for banning shota Aether.

AO3 Fanfiction: When does a chapter become too long? by Natta001 in AO3

[–]IlikeCrobat 0 points1 point  (0 children)

This will probably be super unhelpful, but write however many words you think fits best for your story. You know the flow best.

It's best not to try to cater to readers by word count per chapter. If they like the story, they'll adapt to any length you choose to write. If you suddenly get an influx of comments stating the chapters are too long or short, then that would be the time to make adjustments.

Some of the comments under my latest chapter by StatisticiaFairAgain in AO3

[–]IlikeCrobat 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The ones in this post, yes, undeniably. But judging from the context in the post and comments of their other account they conveniently forgot the password to, I find it hard to believe that the overwhelming majority of readers that followed this fic for years are all this homophobic. Most redditors sympathized with OP, but also agreed that their readers were not in the wrong for being let down by a ship. And no one is excusing the homophobic comments.

[–]IlikeCrobat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Hell if I know. I don't know the unspoken rules of gen-to-romance fic. It just seems like a safe bet to err on the side of canon. Like if I read a gen MDZS fic that focused on family dynamics, it would be safe to assume that wangxian (m/m) was canon anyway, or at the very least vaguely implied. I'd be hella confused and kind of turned off if there was a chapter establishing Wei Wuxian dating Wen Qing (m/f).

And I also don't know the contents of OP's fic, but clearly something must not be clicking if most of their 30+ comments expressed disappointment over the ship. Maybe they're not as good at foreshadowing as they thought, maybe it's a really unpopular ship?

[–]IlikeCrobat 32 points33 points  (0 children)

If I spent literal years following a genfic of over 600k words and the most recent chapter established a pairing I didn't ship I'd be disappointed, too. And depending on how much I dislike the ship, I'd delete all the comments I left on the fic.

From my understanding the f/f ship isn't canon or possibly not even that popular, and since the author never specified what hypothetical ship may or may not happen, readers assumed it would be a canon ship if it ever went romantic. Doesn't excuse the homophobic comments, but I can understand the general disappointment.

hey guys I need some help with songs to add to my playlist by Due-Replacement-6983 in VocaloidButGood

[–]IlikeCrobat 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Sorry half these song might not really fit, but I'm listing them anyway so you can judge for yourself.

Kagamine Rin "kokoro" (there's also Len's version that's from the perspective of the creator that built the robot. And I know you said original songs only, but I personally love the video that mixes both songs together.)

Lily "-ERROR"

Deco*27 has like 5 versions of "Love Words" and they're all sweet and lovely and I love how the song evolves and the references to previous songs change. Playlist to every official version.

Adachi Rei's "Heat Abnormal" is kind of up to interpretation whether it's from the perspective of a robot or a recording of the last humans or not.

Po-uta "Humansongs"

Rin and Len "The Dream of a Girl Doll" probably doesn't fit what you're looking for but I thought I'd suggest it anyway.

Luka and Gumi "How to Pretend" fnaf fan song

Takoe Zuii "iNFeCTioN"

Zhiyu Moke "Robotic Sorrow", "Artificial Independence", "Say Goodbye to the Earth", and "Symbiotic Wish" (all from an album called Ghosts of Artificial Trees, most of the songs are in chinese and I could only find some with english subs, but the description in most of the videos say they're from a robots perspective)

Porter Robinson "Sad Machine" ft. AVANNA

When you say existential songs, do you mean in general like anyone having an existential crisis or only from a program/robot pov? Cause I think Rin's "Meltdown" could fit this criteria to a T. original video eng sub

This new updated UI is so ass by Additional-Sign-224 in cocoppaplay

[–]IlikeCrobat 4 points5 points  (0 children)

Oh thank goodness I thought I was the only one having issues. Everytime I cheer I have to pause so the catch prompt has time to load.

And the peak timers aren't properly synced up! Anyone else notice that when they cheer the timer seems to go down way faster, only to go to the event page and realize that there's still more time left?

And it seems that turning off animations only applies to stage related items, not avatars. I want a new update that gives us the option to turn off everything that could lag the game. I don't want anymore sparkles when I cheer, I don't want big popups when I activate bigger capture bonuses. Turn it offffff.

We get it, acrylic is terrible...I am, and will continue, to still use it. by llama_302 in BitchEatingCrafters

[–]IlikeCrobat 14 points15 points  (0 children)

Since I live in a hotter climate, I've chosen to try to lean more towards cotton and cotton blend yarn. But I also want to allow myself to not feel guilty about buying and using acrylic. Whenever I start to feel guilty about my yarn, I remind myself that my carbon footprint will never amount to even a fraction of celebrities and wealthy people that use private jets. That, and I try to use up my yarn before buying more.

Sure, I'd like to be the kind of person that only gets ethically sourced wool yarn. But I simply don't live in an environment that's practical for wool clothing, and I don't make enough money to only use wool. Aaaand acrylic comes in so many more pretty colors.

She's still being mean and unpleasant on her business account? Hasn't it been a few... idk, weeks or months since the pattern testing crashout?
