Harassing Content/Fanwork Creators
hiya, serious post time.
so i've been noticing some serious harassment towards people who make content or create fanwork. i've been wanting to stay something for a while but i'm not really good at this stuff so i was holding back,, i have decided not to do that any longer.
the lack of empathy or awareness people seem to have when interacting with content creators is kinda appalling tbh?? like i've seen people comparing people's art (telling person A they should do smth more like person B as if there's a more correct way to do it), putting people's ocs in situations the artist has stated they're uncomfortable with, trying to rush artists, or just outright disregarding an artist's boundaries.
the grossest part of this to me is that it seems people grow more obsessed w something when an artist says "this will never happen/please don't do this". i'm not going to tag people bacause i don't want to annoy anybody but as an example: i've seen an a fanwork creator repeatedly state that their oc will not have children of any kind and they're not comfortable with her being put in positions where she's watching over children in any capacity, and rather than accepting this, people try to find ways around it, question it, or outright ignore it.
i don't care if you didn't mean to be rude or if you were genuinely asking. if someone says "DON'T DO THIS WITH MY CHARACTER", don't fucking do it. it's so disgustingly disrespectful among other things (that i can't put into words bc i will just rant for several paragraphs gbhdf).
you wanna draw kids? make your own oc and draw their kids. stop trying to push that on other people.
also about rushing artists: art is fucking hard. people have lives outside of content creation, and even if they didn't, you still have to handle mental health, burnout, etc. on top of it. don't ask an artist "hey when is x coming out?" especially if they're fairly active?? like wtf have some fucking empathy.
to artists, content creators, and fanwork creators: you do not have to put up with ANYONE'S bullshit. your wellbeing and happiness is important. lay out your boundaries and if people disregard them, block them. people have shit to say about it? block them. you are not evil for wanting to be respected, especially over simple stuff, and being blocked is not the end of the world. people will survive and move on, and if they don't, maybe it'll teach them a much needed lesson.

struggling
So, I'm not going to lie. I've been really struggling to find the motivation to do much fic writing this week, let alone actually share the two that I did this weekend. The whole fic reposting debacle (that's still happening, btw, though I doubt many people actually care based on what I've seen) really struck a blow to my creative drive.
Tumblr has been my refuge and my safe space for years now. I don't want to give that up because of one person and their followers, so I'm doing my best to just move on. But it's not easy for me. Maybe I'm in the minority here, but it really hurts to see what's going on and know so many others are totally fine with it. Creators work hard. We deserve enough respect to NOT have our content stolen and reposted at the very LEAST.
That said, I'm going to try and continue to share content with you, much as it's kind of difficult for me right now. I'm working on the 12 Days event that will begin next month, and I'm hoping that will help reboot my creative spirit.
If it doesn't, well...I guess I'll cross that bridge when I come to it.
I'll say it one more time: I am NOT okay with the reposting that's going on. It's NOT cool; it's theft, plain and simple. But I've blocked the person I've seen doing it, so I'm hoping that at least will give me peace of mind.
So, yeah. I'm discouraged, but I'm trying to keep moving forward.
Please respect content creators. A lot of what we do, we do for FREE. Don't take us for granted. We're human beings behind these computer/phone screens. Please, please remember that.

You do not dictate what is canon. You do not dictate everything that happens in the fandom. You do not dictate what other fans like. People are free to like what they like. Others need to respect that and either enjoy their content or leave them alone to find content that they actually like.
you ship lapidot kill youself peridot is aroace
......Friendly reminder that it ISNT canon!! It was a headcanon made by a storyboard writer who ships her with Amethyst (who has NO SAY on what is canon and what isnt) You CAN headcanon her as aroace because theres nothing stopping you from doing that! just remember that it isnt canon, and Rebecca Sugar herself made lapidot art
and also the word is 'yourself'

Hi I just wanted to let you know I did repost your art on Twitter but I gave credits !! I don’t see why I can’t repost when it would help your account grow I just wanted to give the head ups in case you see it lol !
I really tried to think of a polite answer at first..  But the way you wrote this just triggers me to the core. WHAT THE ACTUAL FUCK?! Please delete those posts asap! ~ “I don’t see why I can’t repost …” ... idk.. maybe because I specifically say that TWICE on my profile?! I do not want this. I do not allow this. You are not entitled to my art. Period.
Apart from the legal aspects… it’s just a very rude thing to do! Even more so without permission and when artists tell you not to!! ~ “… but I gave credits” Yeah. While simultaneously shitting on my boundaries. Amazing! Also… Who said I actually want to “grow my account”?! I said many times before: This is a little blog I run for fun… It took me a long time to find the courage to share tk art with people… On very specific platforms I chose that I feel safe on! And I still feel vulnerable for doing so… Don’t get me wrong. I appreciate every single person, who likes my art! 💖🙏 (Or reblogs it and comments on it!) But I am genuinely not interested in seeing my art being spread over other random websites against my will! Especially on an absolute hellhole like Twitter... I honestly don’t want to be represented there with my art. Just no. I feel neither safe nor welcome there. (Plus they shit all over creators’ rights… if you haven't seen their latest terms-of-use change.. you might want to take a look 💀🔥) So… to bring this to a close.. PLEASE 👏 RESPECT 👏 CREATORS’ 👏 RULES & WISHES 👏💖 And if you are not sure about them: ask beforehand!! Seriously… it’s really not that hard to be nice... Just in case some people are not aware of my bio or pinned post (or conveniently ignore it….😑) 👇👇👇

P.S.: The only way I allow for people to do a repost is, if it's a commission or a collab we agreed on beforehand. Just to make things extra clear.

I work hard on my icons is the thing, and I know other creators do as well, they're small edits but they're still edits
It's finding the perfect screen shot, its lighting and coloring and even more!
then we put them nicely onto a rebloggable post, give people different color options and shapes, throw in lil graphics to give it a certain flair
All. For. Fucking. Free.
the least you can do is like the post you take your icon from, the best thing you can do is reblog them
I stopped making icons for months because my posts would get like 13 notes (most of them likes) and yet I'd see the icon be used by more than 13 people - NONE OF WHICH LIKED OR REBLOGGED THE POSTS
I've even seen people take my icons (again who didn't like or reblog the original post) and edit them and use them for something else WITHOUT MY PERMISSION or give me credit
its exhausting, please support the content creators on this website

Do you think your hyperfixation on the boys™️ is weakening as we jump into this new era with Quinn and Vincent😏
don't worry, I'm still very much obsessed with the aforementioned boys~ I've just been enjoying coming up with my own stuff lately, so the interests are sort of overlapping 😙you can expect some more art for both 🥰

I don't have a lot of confidence in my art, but Roosterteeth and Achievement Hunter was one of the few things back in the day that got me to sit down & draw. I'm still really honored to be one of their guest artist for their 18th anniversary. You weren't always the best Roosterteeth, but thanks for inspiring this shy artist to keep drawing.

At the rate you update I'm gona finish your series in chatgtp
Yeah, no.
That's not it.
If you want an AI to spit out a story for you, that's on you. But I did not spend days and weeks plotting, writing and rewriting and going over a fic ten times for you to threaten to put it onto an AI for a quick update.
I work. I am a nurse. I also have a family and friends, and have many other hobbies. Many writers can give you fics on the daily, but I can't. I've never done it and I won't start now. If you want daily updates find another author for you or write yourself.
I write slow, I don't have much time for it. I also have mental and physical issues. I doubt everything I write as English is a self taught language for me. And I've stopped enjoying a series or no longer vibe with it I won't write it because I won't force myself to post some half assed shit that will disappoint others and myself
Feeding fics to AIs is what drives authors away from writing and out of their blogs. Comments like these won't make us update faster it'll only make us wanna quit

i can’t believe people are still reblogging reposters, like you all know perfectly well by now how much trouble reposters give us gifmakers, we ask you to pls be careful and make sure that you’re reblogging from the original source, we’ve given you endless tips on how to spot a reposter/repost, yet you see a shitty blog posting a high quality gif with only three tags and still hit reblog… that’s like reposting 101 ! which makes me think some of you don’t actually give a fuck about gifmakers because you can’t possibly be THAT dense

i'm not exactly innocent of this and i am not defending her at all as a person, but sometimes when people criticize l!ly 0rchard, i can't help but side eye a liiiittle bit when they nitpick EVERYTHING about her writing... including stuff that i knowwww the average person wouldn't criticize a cis and/or male writer for doing.
and it bugs me more that you cant point that out without people going "omg its not transmisogynistic to criticize a bad youtuber!! look, we don't misgender her, dont we get a medal for that?"

i’m still ridiculously angry that tumblr took away the ability to report reposters and replaced it with a dcma request. it feels like sticking a middle finger to content creators and once again undermining what they do for this site. the unique selling point of tumblr as a social media has always been its curation of gifs and ability to form fandom spaces for all content creators, to ignore that and make it easier for people to get away with reposting content that they did not create (and even get rewarded by getting notes for doing it) is the biggest ‘fuck you’ to the lifeblood of this site
