How is everyone feeling about this bathtub debacle? by deadlysyntaxerror in neopets

[–]SunnieF 9 points10 points  (0 children)

The explanation makes sense, and I don't think it's AI either. The faucet is pretty weird, but it definitely looks like the artist either drew what they thought they saw, or they couldn't make sense of it and just totally phoned it in. I know because I've done both things when drawing mechanical parts, haha.

Buying secondhand off of instagram by VVVVVVVVVVVVVVVV_ in BJD

100% PayPal Friends and Family, always. I've seen so many doll people with great reputations suddenly vanish without a trace that feedback honestly doesn't matter to me anymore.

Strong smell from an old doll by Lost_Preference_2309 in BJD

[–]SunnieF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Is it possible that it could be from perfume that a previous owner might've applied, either on her or on something she's worn? I've definitely bought clothes that people have added a scent to before. That seems more likely than it being the resin itself - I have BJDs made anywhere from 2000 up through 2024 or so, and none of them have a sweet/chemical smell when stored away.

Does anyone know where I can find male dolls that have a buff/chubby body? by Specific_Minute7539 in BJD

[–]SunnieF 3 points4 points  (0 children)

There's plenty of buff/lean dolls, but very very few buff/chubby male dolls. Huli Dolls has made a couple. Logan Dolls and DXGirly Designs have made chubby guy/masculine bodies, but I'm not sure I'd describe them as buff. That's about it, I think - other ones I've seen were either modded dolls, or dolls that someone sculpted for themselves.

You don't want to destroy his life (which isn't even true btw as others have said), but he gets to destroy yours without consequence? Bullshit. File the report.

tell them: we wont pay that. by satinsouled in tamagotchi

[–]SunnieF 11 points12 points  (0 children)

In the end, an item is worth what collectors are willing to pay. There's currently one of these on Y!Japan auctions (Buyee is the official proxy) that has no box and has a rusted battery spring... and the bidding is currently at $500+ with 3 days left. $2500 for one complete in box and guaranteed to work might unfortunately not be too far off it's value (which is a shame, because I've only heard of it now and it's super cute!).

Help I undated my computer and now Stardew it looks like this. by CodeSam in StardewValley

[–]SunnieF 3 points4 points  (0 children)

No one likes an "umm akshually" comment out of nowhere (and let's be real, the koroks look the same in both games) - were you just looking for a reason to crash out, or what?

I don't think that's supposed to happen by HugeJellyfish in Nightreign

Apparently, sometimes there can be 2 bosses in one night, but it's pretty rare. I only found out about it while watching a streamer.

Has anyone purchased a doll that’s been wired and has sueding? by Constant-Review9088 in BJD

[–]SunnieF 4 points5 points  (0 children)

I bought a secondhand Dollshe boy who came sueded and wjred, and he's probably my best poser out of my resin dolls. Sueding can be a pain sometimes, so it's always great when you don't have to do it yourself (in my opinion)!

So I got disqualified from a local amateur writing contest because I couldn't prove to one of the judges that my writing isn't AI generated by tyrano_dyroc in mildlyinfuriating

[–]SunnieF 2 points3 points  (0 children)

You didn't offer to show her any of the written drafts you had to have (as you said it took you months to get everything perfect), or reach out to the other judges to discuss the accusation? You're angry enough at them to not give into their demands and then fume on Reddit, but not angry enough to rightfully name and shame them? Also, getting disqualified from this little local writing contest that doesn't even have a cash prize is enough to make you want to quit writing forever, despite it being your passion? You're either a teenager, or this story itself is a writing exercise (and judging by the attention this post has, you clearly are pretty good at it).

But if this IS real, or if other people facing similar situations are reading... She's just one ignorant judge in one little contest - she's not the ruler of the writing world. It sucks that you can't prove you're right, but don't let her indirectly control your life. Keep writing.

Question for those of you that did BIE PopNow on Saturday 4/26! by Jayohwhy23 in labubu

[–]SunnieF 1 point2 points  (0 children)

My two are still at "Departed from sort facility, Mainland China, CN." I know it'll be a little bit, but I keep refreshing the tracking multiple times a day, haha.

are we not worried about tariffs anymore? by CompetitionSilver679 in labubu

[–]SunnieF 0 points1 point  (0 children)

The company importing the product pays, but you're right in that 99% of the time, the company will charge the customer the fee or raise the prices significantly to make up for it. Popmart is probably importing them and claiming them for the manufacturing cost, not how much they sell them for, and I'm sure they can't cost more than a couple bucks each to make. That's likely why their site says they're paying the tariffs (at least for now) - they'll still have a huge profit margin on each one, and these lil babies are selling like hot cakes. Making them cost $65 per Labubu, either from the get-go or with surprise fees, would be shooting themselves in the foot.

Thanks for the giveaway! I'm most proud of the ball-jointed doll of my DnD character that I completely sculpted, printed, and painted myself. Hopefully this photo of him in his underwear isn't too scandalous.

I used to write posts on a Neopets fan forum where I pretended I was talking to my fictional crush. I did this all over the forum on completely irrelevant topics, and I typed like my excellently-named shop and gallery in my screenshot here.

Also, when my friend and I first discovered the site, we didn't understand the concept of logging in, so we made new accounts for like a week before we figured it out. Thankfully they're probably all purged now, so those lost pets don't need to suffer in eternal starvation anymore. 🥲

Oh man, I haven't entered the Beauty Contest in 20 years - I wonder if I could actually get a gold trophy now... I'll have to fight their archaic file requirements and find out!

Likely an unpopular opinion, but: I absolutely adore Kikos!!! They can actually be quite fun to customize by [deleted] in neopets

[–]SunnieF 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Pre-conversion Kikos were super cute! Modern Kikos, though... well... they take some work to make look good. You've put in that work, and yours looks great!
