i think i've made this rant before but i have more to add onto, so here we are.
i guess i'll list a few annoyances i have w/in the mm12 fanbase
if you're going to take the time (or not) to look into the "main" mm12 trio, that being itrapped, ellernate, and caleb244, then i'm sure you can look into the other 3. even while their roles weren't as important, most people don't even KNOW who johnathan777 is, which is crazy from some of you itrapped fans.. (i mean let's not forget the only reason itrapped knows how to code/program is BECAUSE of johnathan teaching him..)
some of you who try a LIIIITTLLEEE too hard to be "niche". it's okay if your favorite is caleb, or whatever. but let's not point at, what, itrapped's good buddy FeetTicklingBandit123 and say that's your favorite when they had VERY little to do with mm12. i'm looking at lonelytree fans...
not wanting to read the forums. that alone is crazy to me because that's where a LOT of the mm12 info comes from. i get some complications come with that, like those who may be visually impaired, etc. at least TRY to learn more about mm12, like put in the effort. because otherwise, unfortunately for you, you're POSING. larping, even. dynabroth has an entire thread about the event, and it's a really good read.
on the topic of the first two, it's still strangely baffling to see people who're like "oh wow i love lonelytree and nuclearbyte!11!!!1!" and whoever, and then when somebody mentions coolboy10000, preponderance, hell even n7/nooooooo, y'all are like "erm.. heh, who is that?" IF YOU READ ANY INFO ABOUT MM12 YOU'D KNOW WHO THEY ARE? EDUCATE YOURSELVES I IMPLORE YOU. while they weren't huge parts of mm12, and were moreso just associated with (well, ellernate in this case), they're still important to know about, even outside of mm12. if you're gonna call LONELYTREE important, why not make fanart and write stuff about those guys too?
those people who use the characters as an excuse to write/draw random yaoi and yuri. or, those who take nicole and iburning, JUST BECAUSE THEY'RE TWO GIRLS, and make yuri. im not even hating on the ship, i love it, and i love mm12 yaoi/yuri, but at least educate yourselves on the characters before making them do random stuff.
trying to fit the characters into specific "archetypes". etc, cold itrapped, nonchalant alpha nate, slut caleb, etc. twinkifying is also irritating. i dont really understand why some people will see facial hair on somebody's drawing of an mm12 dude and be like "ermmm heh why does he have a beard/mustache/stubble?" oh im sooo sorry i like my men hairy. shut up bro
people who can't differentiate base mm12 and FUCKASS forsaken. i hate you forsaken itrapped. i hate MOST of you forsaken itrapped fans. most not all.
i also dislike you mm12 fans who just so happen to like OTHER "niche" media, and bash people for only drawing mm12, etc. it's annoying, get over yourself. if you want more content of said niche media, then do it yourself
the list goes on but i feel like drawing instead so uhhhh
bye guys hah
