25 years after the year 2000, and you nerds STILL won't stop bitching and whining about worthless starter/genwar/stats/bromons and waifus. This board is basically dead, the original oldfags who once populated this board are gone. What the fuck do you even have left to argue about?

I've never seen a bigger group of whiny crybabies throwing a fit over absolutely nothing. This is the endgame, this is it. You've purity tested long enough. Whoever is left, thats the way it is. Your fellow /vp bros are the way they are, and nothing you do is going to change them at this point. Its time to put an end to the conflict.

>>57990969 (OP)
theres arent any genwars thread up right now doe

>>57990969 (OP)
What sort of threads do you want to see created and discuss in, OP? Just do that.

>>57990969 (OP)
They're sHRT raiders shitting up the board on purpose as a "joke"

>>57990969 (OP)
>You all like the same stuff.
The majority of the board doesn't even like Pokémon.

Also it's just not true, people will lynch you if like a gen they dislike. The amounts of seethe I receive whenever I say I like gen 9, lol.

>>57990995
>wearing a shirt makes you a shit poster
Stop trying to get people to wear dresses, homo.

>>57991000
But thats my issue. Like why do people even care so much about liking the wrong gen of pokemon? Why would you go into a thread about a certain trainer or pokemon specifically for the purpose of saying you don't like it? Do they think by virtue of them saying it that everyone who's a fan of that character is gonna suddenly do a 180 and be like "no you're right, this character does suck!"

It just seems like low effort trolling to just shit up someone elses thread just to be an asshole. It boggles my mind when I see people fighting here when theres barely anyone left here to fight.

Like what cock measuring posturing bullshit are these people trying to maintain by claiming one gen or starter over another? Like we're all just nerds who like fictional cartoon animals. Why are we getting upsetti spaghetti over this?

>>57991038
Some people are simply too reliant on traditions and routine. They can't break out of what they've always done because it brings them a form of comfort. Others see how they act and imitate it in an attempt to fit in, beginning the cycle anew. The best thing to be better in a visible way. Be kind, support others who are kind by replying to them, and following the ancient wisdom of not feeding the trolls. If enough people do this then the board will improve. But it is a hard task that requires long term effort and patience, so if you truly seek to make change you need to have conviction to be strong enough to persist. Making the world a better place is never easy.

Unironically autism. They don't understand the concept of different tastes, they think their opinion is the "correct one" and everyone else is "wrong".

>>57991038
You the same nigga who whined about people wanting to fuck Ghost Pokémon the other? If so, you're not allowed to talk because you clearly also don't understand the concept that other people don't always like the same things you like and vice versa, just like genwar autists

*the other day

if anyone can tell me how to learn to draw, i will singlehandedly save /vp/ (in 1+ year maybe)

>>57991252
>>>/ic/

>>57991313
thanks. i only browse /g/ and /vp/ so im kinda retarded. please understand.

>>57990969 (OP)
>I hate the fights so I'm going to make a thread to start one
I like how you think

>>57991252
Serious answer:
-Check out the sticky on our /ic/ board
-Start cheap: pencils, liners, erasers, ruler and a sketchbook
-Start working through the exercises in Keys to Drawing (you can probably find the PDF for free online). Obviously, for the exercises you don't have to use IRL models, you can grab photo references off Google
-After you get through a few chapters of the above, start working through Fun with a Pencil in parallel
-You can then watch some YouTube channels for extra guidance, like Pikat, Marc Brunet, Proko, Lines Sensei, etc
-Once you've worked through a chunk of the two books, you can consider going digital: buy a low-cost screenless tablet (these are cheap but have a BIG learning curve due to the hand-eye coordination) and learn to use Krita (digital art programs have lots of bells and whistles, so this also has a learning curve)
-Realize that improvement is not perfectly linear, you will alternate between shit and acceptable at the start
-The important thing is being a good self critic: are your proportions off, is the perspective wonky, is the shading unrealistic, is the lineart shaky, etc. Because then you know what to grind. Learn how to compare your work to professional stuff (without beating yourself up, just notice the differences objectively)

>>57991320
I understand, I also am a user of /vp/ so I can't judge people for being retarded.

>>57991252
The others already linked /ic/ but pic related is also integral, never forget

>>57991333
saved =)
>>57991343
that's cool. i really like doing the things. learned programming this way.

>>57990969 (OP)
I've been here since this boards' inception. Yes, we don't make memes anymore, the population has declined, the discussion and the series itself has stagnated. There's only so many things you can talk about with a series that doesn't do much to evolve. All of the thread topics you're complaining about, are the only things there are to talk about. If you're sick of the current threads then leave and come back in October when the new game comes out.

Dreams Vs TimeTravel

>>57991252
With a drawing of Planet-sized Complete Zygarde?

>>57991463
If you still believe in dreams/imagination you're officially retarded

>>57991468
yes. so you better hope that i succeed.....

>>57991313
ehhh I have asked /ic/ for advise on multiple occasions and they do not really offer advice. It is mostly just meme posting and shit posting, which is fine, but not particularly helpful.

>>57991519
>only draw memes and shitposts
>"why are people posting memes and shitposts instead of giving me serious advice?"

>>57991503
I will.

>>57991252
As others have said; /ic/ is the place to start. But I also think it's worth mentioning /vp/'s drawthread.
Once you get the basics down and start drawing pokémon at a beginner level, you can try asking for feedback there. I myself received some great advice when I asked for criticism on my shitty pokémon art.
