Language matters.

Words and specially prefixes have connotations that go even further than their meaning. This is why usually something “pro” is good and something “anti” is bad.

In this terms we, member of the Pro-bjd Artists community, are suggesting to change the words “PRO- recast” and “ANTI-recast” to “ANTI-ARTISTS” and “PRO-ARTISTS”. Also often newbie don’t exactly know the negative issue about the word: recast.

Because if you are something that is a “pro”. You are buying dolls, supporting the original artist and helping this hobby advance.

Don’t let anyone call you “anti-anything”, you are a true “pro”.

We encourage everyone to join and share this change which we hope will help in shaping the mentality there is around this topic. Thank you so much to my community (please, if you’re pro-artist join us! (www.facebook.com/groups/1752561691655951), in particular to Alicia Fernandez and Sabri Uchan for the idea and Sakura DH for the slogan words.

Together we can change, step by step, this community. Be more active, support the cause with slogan, proposal, we were silent for too much, time to fight! Also, for people that are very active on social, and have a good amount of followers, famous owners and little artists: plis, join us and support the cause!

I have made the argument of using the term Anti-Artist for years, and stated in my pro-artist video months ago as to why we should use that term. I’m glad that the rest of the pro-artist community is starting to jump on board!

I love this <3

@nadeestar really? we didin’t know! I admit that I don’t frequent very much the youtube bjd community, since the last time I tried I’ve seen only anti artists videos =_= please do tell us the link so we can see and reblog it in the community ^O^

There is so much toxicity in the tumblr portion of the BJD hobby, and i want to send a reminder to those out there that might need to hear it:

You can have whatever legit doll you want, whether its from Fairyland or Mirodoll. You can have whatever size doll you want, from the biggest giants to the smallest critters. You can make your clothes/do the faceups/make the wigs or you can buy them. You do not have to have a high end, certain sized doll in order to be taken seriously in the community.

Pair your Resinsoul with an Iplehouse, give that Soom a fabulous sock dress, try doing your first faceup on that Migidoll head, hybrid that Ringdoll with Mirodoll. Its YOUR hobby, just as much as it is everyone elses, and nobody has any right to police you or put rules in place that don’t exist.

As long as you buy legit, then you are welcome here, no matter what kind of BJD you have.

So much this, it doesn’t matter which artist you support. The important thing is supporting the artists you like, and that support helps that company grow. It brings new dolls to the hobby and that’s what we want.

Like Resinsoul have improved their work since I’ve been in the hobby, and that’s great!
