(long comment is long lol)

I agree completly about this. Especially about recolours

recolours are the biggest and one of the very few problems I have with this wiki, I wish people would just realise taking a picture and editing it WILL NOT make you a good artist. And plus, every recolour is a hypocrite. Here is my proof:

1. A recolourer says that you may recolour official screenshots, but not fanart. What is the difference? With both pictures, someone worked hard on it

2. They say that recolours are not stealing, yet if someone used their  recolour, they will consider it stealing.

3. If a recolourer actually drew something, and someone recoloured it, they will consider it stealing and wrong.

See the hypocrisy? There is NO  difference between them. And if you draw, you WILL Get better. "I can't draw very well" is the main reason people recolour on here. Well here's an idea: PRACTISE.

People say they practised but never got better drawing wise. Yet they started off not being good at recolours then eventually get better. THe same will go with drawing.

Now about leaving.

Like spoon, I made a blog about leaving, although that was just a break. Mainly because at the time I didn't feel respected/bad time in real life, but I soon realised that you guys care about me (well, only some people) and that if I want to be happy, you should be around people who care about you (Dont say family is a good alternative because my famliy annoys the hell out of me most of the time).

I think people who are planning to leave, like you said should think it through. There has to be at least one person who likes you so "everyone hates me" is not a good excuse, it can be resolved if you work hard.

I think leaving FOREVER over an argument is pathetic, like you said. Arguments can be resolved and sometimes it feels like people just don't want to get involved in the argument therefore "leave".

I support short breaks, unless the reason is legit =\
