Usually I don't rant about stuff like this, but I feel like I need to say it. Wattpad is supposed to be a kid friendly place. Now I understand there are some adult/teen content books and role plays on here, but that's not what I'm getting at. I was looking through some suggested books when I found a certain art book (no username given) with a video of the chick actually fighting! Who posts that stuff online!? It never goes away and it'll be found again when she doesn't want it to be.
Here's my thought on it (no I refuse to watch pointless violence) why would you ever post something like that? It doesn't make you look stronger to grab at a girls hair (says in the comments) or hit her. No. It makes you look like a bully and a jerk. And to add to this when people give critiques on your art they aren't haters.

The comments were even worse saying the "haters" should be raped and stabbed!? What the hell!? Who even wishes that on someone!? That is nothing to take as a joke because it isn't funny and how old are these kids who post these nasty comments! I would never, EVER, say that to anyone on the Internet or real life because it's wrong! And it could very well happen! Cheering on the fight!? Cussing people out?! That's not okay! Half of them would probably ever say it in person so why say it online?

Everyone is entitled to their own opinion. If you trace people will say something. If it's a knockoff of a cannon character, yes, someone will probably say something (recolors deserve a rant of their own).

Tracing (unless you're getting a fell for anatomy) and recoloring is wrong and yes, sometimes it infuriates other artists especially when they themselves work hard to create something that's amazing and yet it barely gets any views because that type of art gets way more views and votes!

I can't stand that! I work hard to give my characters an original design, but someone else gets just as many votes (and more) by just tracing! That's not how it should work! I don't think it's fair! The people who work hard should be the ones getting the credit, but it seems art thieves and copiers get a lot more.

That's just how I feel about it....
