Social Swamp's Social Thread 3 - And now, the end is near, and so I face the final curtain...

[Roaring Salsa]

Arguing which Social is better is just plain silly; each one has both its good and bad moments

At least I'm safe from double posting infractions

Some Smash screenshots to visualise the crazy nature of the Nintenzone Social.

It's better than the Smash 4 social and the character social threads (Zelda and Link social anyone?)

And hell we get leaks and insider information over here moreso than anywhere else. We just have alot of crazy people over here

No... We're not better. In fact we're all on the same level of crappy if you ask me.
A good social thread is only one of legends.

What's a Disco Room? Can I dance?

 

[CyberHyperPhoenix]

Uh, what in the Hell is going on over here?

I decided to be evil or something like that

Ivan admit we're all **** but this thread is atleast a tier higher than most

Only if you're premium like me!

Maybe by a decimal point sure. But we're just the same as the rest.

From what I've seen the Robin and Corrin socials are pretty chill places.

Alot more than this place anyway

You guys wanna play a game?

Spoiler: Slightly big bingo board

People are using this board for "Fandom Bingo". Basically you list the things you like (such as Smash Bros) in each square individually in no specific order. If someone likes the same thing you like, they cross it out, and if they get a full row (up down left to right diagonal you know what i mean) then they get bingo!

It could be fun.

Did Chrom fuse with Tiki or am I missing something?

Robin Social got so bad it turned away a lot of us mains for a while until Raziek told them to stop.

It's back to being fine for now.

The Rosalina Social is actually pretty chilled most of the time, but at the same time, moderation is overly strict there and some of the users are real prudes at times.

Like I got banned from posting in it for two weeks (still effective) making a post there, that was a tamer version of a post I made here. :/

Wakka Wakka amirite?

Just curious, did they even talk about the post with you? Or was it just a straight up ban no questions asked?
If it's the latter than that's a tad rash not gonna lie.

Thanks! I always have trouble with it!

 

[PsychoIncarnate]

Youtube already gives the option to pick the time on any of their videos

It does? I didn't know that. Thanks for pointing it out, is it accessed the same way as SonicBrawler's link?

A reminder that every bit of this game was done by hand, when it comes to animations.

Someone spent weeks, maybe months of their lives creating this.

When you hit share on a youtube video it gives you a check option where you can pick the time. It defauts to the current time you are on

Just copy the link, hit the media button when posting here and paste the link

Don't forget the part where he scratches himself.

In fact, why doesn't this version of the gif include that bit?

M. Bison took over the thread. Still waiting on a Raging Demon from Akuma the mods

Spoiler

I was warned earlier about not making posts of "that kind" because apparently I had a "track record" of making "HIGHLY questionable posts", but they were pretty vague on what "that kind" meant.

For context, someone posted rather innocent fanart of Rosalina in her new leotard outfit. Another user complained that her breasts looked too big in it, and I simply pointed out that this wasn't the case, and posted and in-game screenshot of MK8 for comparison. It wasn't a close up on her chest or anything, it was just an innocent screenshot that I have from MK8 that kinda makes the point anyway. I said that since Rosalina is wearing what appears to be a nightgown or maternity gown for her normal outfit, it modestly conceals her shapely features. I then posted screenshots comparing Sheik to Zelda. Both were official promo screenshots and were not suggestive in anyway. I just simply pointed out "Sheik and Zelda are the same person, but her body shape looks different in the two outfits, particularly the chest". I felt it was a fitting comparison people could understand.

Aaaand that got me banned. Meanwhile in this thread, I made a similar post but was much more direct about it and it was fine. Not to mention the countless posts with innuendo here and the discussions on how sexuality should be handled in games.

My main gripe is that mods have made a point to me in the past about how "context is everything" when dealing with slightly more mature topics. I once had an avatar I made of Rosalina smoking a cigarette in SFM (I made it mainly as a test for finger posing, making someone smoke a cigarette is actually a difficult thing to animate). I thought it would be fine since, at the time, a mod had an avatar of Daffy Duck with a cigarette in his mouth, but apparently mine was presented in a way that was more inappropriate. While I disagreed with that, I removed the avatar.

However in this instance, someone remarked on a character's chest being too big, and I just corrected them, saying it was fine and then, as an artist myself, educated a little on how clothes effect the shape of a body. I don't understand how that's out of line, it's not like I was ogling, especially when I've seen plenty of more direct and brash sexual posts, be OK in threads like this, including some of my own, and including one on the exact same subject.

I won't talk about it any more than that since the ban is almost up and my activity in that thread was dying out anyway, but the principle of the matter irks me a little so I just want to get it out of my system.

We're gonna have to burn the forum again.

Disco Roomers are a scourge to the website.

Look at them. Thinking they're owed something because they gave the website money.

 

[wedl!!]

So I bought FF7 and Battlefront 2 a couple hours ago. BF2 holds up sooooo well. I've never played a Final Fantasy game so I decided to start with the most iconic one.

Hahahaha.
BF2 may hold up well.
But 7 has aged as well as a glass of milk.

Edit:

 

[wedl!!]

Yeah I know. I just wanted to experience it.

Only $6. If this launcher doesn't work I'm just refunding it tbh. Kinda dumb it doesn't launch. I wouldn't mind emulating it, I don't know why I didn't do that in the first place.

 

[ChikoLad]

Hahahaha.

Legitimately curious as to how this will look in the remake.

It feels goods to be free for Christmas.

I'm pretty sure this someone worked at the same place than those who animated "Attack on Titan".

Gonna be honest.
I've lost about 60% of my interest in the remake already.
In two trailers, they managed to kill it that hard.

Never forget.

 

[Burruni]

Never forget.

Fun Fact: Tifa's breasts kept getting up-scaled across production of FF7.
That scene, when the weapons are breaking out of the northern crater, was one of the very last scenes made. Only in the international versions and beyond.
That is Tifa at maximum boing.

Good job, japan. She went from like a C when you were escaping Shinra in Midgar to like F's there.
