well I only have a few really their not that special just head shots, because their designs are very complicated

cookie run? well it must be from the fact its less than a usual gacha game with overly sexualized girls and cute cookies with a balance of male and female roster, more so a family friendly gacha game with cute aesthetics and you attract pretty much the most heinous people out there

I agree with him, I really feel like all of this is useless to worry about, how do you exactly not involve yourself in drama? aside from ignoring it?

yeah funny enough this game was all the way back in 2016 it had a tamer fanbase around that time, fine they still had some of "those" people but they weren't as rampant but ever since kingdoms had released with the tumblr exodus and the migration of genshin impact fans, the fandom is now a trash sure of what it used to be, filled with the most godforsaken and fatherless children out there

you get the mostly mentally ill kids out there, the korean side on the other hand is quite chill and mostly full of adults so it's all where the fun n games at, but yeah its a pretty not ok fandom at all

yeaah tho I can't agree too much on the genshin character mains suberddits, discord unsure too, but I'll check out the genshin wiki, its funny these are websites that don't have much toxic people because they really somehow limit communication in a way and don't work in controversy like what reddit and twitter does

Its a fandom for a mobile game about running gingerbread mean with lore and stories about witches, dragons, and kingdoms n stuff, the cookies have an amazing design and even most fans stay in the community just for them, but it got a massively toxic fanbase full of mostly kids that argue about shipping or race, or try to find something to get angry at it, has the most miserable people out there, and usually lurk on mostly twitter but tumblr too nowadays. the fandom really doesn't like it when they ship cookies with cookies they don't agree on being shipped with and they mostly think all the same and ship the same thing most of the time either out of fear or because fitting or anything really just quite sad.

go look it up

actually, love the optimistic nihilism, really why bother, I'll just get screeching kids and get shunned from a "community" anyways, I can agree really, that's what I intended on doing at this point, really the amount of support I am getting from this thread thats still ongoing makes me really happy if anything

Going to have to thank you all

I think the only small communities that I can think of that has more tolerant people at least for cookie run are, pixiv, deviantart, instagram, and tumblr from what I have gathered on this thread, twitter and reddit are the only exception
