Seems like there's got to be some other trustworthy people on here that would be willing to moderate the place.</body>

      <body>Wow, this makes me extremely sad, but I seriously don't blame Jimmy one bit. This site used to inspire and excite me, but anymore its just not what it used to be when I joined. :(

I've been thinking a lot about it lately. I wish I had great web developing skills and put together a new site much like how emptees used to be. Where you could come to exchange ideas, tips and some jokes, but it be by invite only. No loves on tees, just constructive criticism so we could all benefit and grow. Maybe one day :/ </body>

      <body>Deleting his profile on the site that provides him with masses of work (i dunno if that's the case anymore after that manos incident)?

He could have just not visited. Surely deleting is a bit ott?

Oh well, his choice. Sad to see him go. If anything i think this site should be more moderated and made more hardcore t-shirt site (as in any threads that have nothing to do with any type of design whatsoever get deleted....or maybe their own proper category that you have to visit specifically).

I like brackets.</body>

More participation would be great. But that doesn't really solve the problem of the bad apples causing havoc though.

More shirts + more moderation = Win?

      <body>well all I can say is......the community we have only gets weaker when all the founders leave.....and the only way it will ever get better is if everyone comes back....or a few new people step it up......we have a good community and we pretty much don't have issues with noobs that last more than a couple days....then they are gone</body>

      <body>eh, i can't say i didn't see this coming for a long time.  i found emptees literally a month after it was started, and it was so amazing.  this site has helped me grow leaps and bounds as a designer, but the way it is now is just too high school.  all the "seniors" are graduating because of all the nonsense and just blatant shit that goes on here.  R.I.P. emptees.</body>

      <body>well i'll be completely honest if not obvious...

I go on here to bitch and argue and promote ez
i used to come here and post tees

no talk section = site of resources and tees... what I think emptees is and was supposed to be

i dont even think of it as a design, tshirt site anymore.
its a place I can fight people and win and post the shit i post on twitter about ez and occassionally if not frequently sell or post something I bought

the tees section is diluted in quality, but you can't help that with the number of people here. as for the talk section it isn't any more annoying than it used to be in my opinion. with the one exception of all the "please by these designs cheap because..." threads.</body>

      <body>I think the talk section has a ton of value. I've looked at a handful of resources but I've learned a lot more from reading and posting in here.

Posting pointless rubbish is generally the idea of a "talk" section." There could easily be more sections to keep things more orderly.

      <body>Mayyybeeeee, and ive thought about this for a while, i dunno if anyone has said about this before...

BUT. 

rather than having a "this is such a rip" or whatever, 

a "dislike" button, or a "hate button"

and maybe the same sort of system with posts...

SO! 

if some douche bag posts a shirt/thread/whatever thats just bogus, gets to a certain amount of "hates" and its automatically deleted... 

just putting it out there, sure im not the only one who thought itd be nice to "hate" a shirt without actually having to say it, and staying anonymous... 

maybe, a "hate" this button, but they stay anonymous, and have to put a comment in with it, and you can view the comments, but not the people... </body>

how does this make sense when he just told us he comes here to fight with people?

everyone starts posting tees again?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I agree with Kyle. I am also sick of reading the drama people bring. either make kyle moderator or take kyles lead and just post tees.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

how does this make sense when he just told us he comes here to fight with people?

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;cite&gt;Kyle Crawford said:&lt;/cite&gt; i dont even think of it as a design, tshirt site anymore.
its a place I can fight people and win and post the shit i post on twitter about ez and occassionally if not frequently sell or post something I bought&lt;/blockquote&gt;

if you haven't noticed, Mr. Crawford adds a good percentage of the drama to this site. that and his minion of undesirables.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I just dont care, I havent even posted as much. the only time ive actually come here to say anything was to take one of my many jabs to sitting duck, or tell tell someone they did an awesome job on a shirt. It's just meh now.</body>

      <body>alright, lets all post a Tshirt to honor what was left of emptees. I know, i know "your one of the new guys that we all hate" but i respect everyone here (except a couple people) 
So make a T and tag it as oldemptees101
if all the great artists all make a Tshirt maybe we can rid of the imposers, the internet flamers, rippers, Indonesians (the evil ones dont worry nico, your cool) and all the poeple that fuck with emptees.

every one is just fools

      <body>Well I just stumbled upon this website a month ago and it has had a huge positive effect on my passion for designing and general desire to push myself further.

I wasn't here for the glory days, but there is still a ton of great information packed into here for those who wish to seek it.</body>

      <body>seriously I joined threadless and everyone I met vanished. Its how the web works. There is still a place for emptees, it's  always remain small time. 

I have had a lot of work through emptees and met a lot of cool potatoes. It's evolving, like threadless did, and so begin the "kids" that think they know better. 

We all come back to one point in time.</body>

      <body>This makes me sad
I haven't been around for long
nor have I ever really posted
I do not know any of you guys 
but y'all definitely inspire me in so many different ways
and its quite sad that new members are running y'all out of this community

And the way you guys talk about the "Old Emptees"
makes me wish i came on here a year sooner

      <body>It wasn't really that great. Like 90% of the people talking about how great it used to be just hung out here to be snarky to other people and hang on the balls of better artists, who they eventually ran away with their pointless drama. Now they're the better artists and are walking away from younger artists drama.

The fact is that Jimmy gave a fuck about this site though, and it sucks to lose him.</body>

      <body>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;cite&gt;OvenRude said:&lt;/cite&gt; Well I just stumbled upon this website a month ago and it has had a huge positive effect on my passion for designing and general desire to push myself further.

I wasn't here for the glory days, but there is still a ton of great information packed into here for those who wish to seek it.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

That's exactly what I was trying to say.

It's a talk section, get the hell over it.I think you're being lazy if you're getting asshurt over random talking. Just because what you may be looking for isn't on the first 4 pages, doesn't mean it's not there. Use the search function. If anything,  the community is just growing. </body>

      <body>I don't think Jimmy leaving signifies anything about Emptees other than Jimmy is leaving. He could put a douchebag in their place for sure, but that's hardly the point of Emptees (and I'm sure he would agree) so keep designing and keep posting and keep inspiring and helping new artists to grow.

I think this site has gotten way better, just take a look back at older designs. When I got my one and only TOTD it took like 70 loves. But now kids are KILLING it all the time with tons more love.

This is a good place for people to get exposure, we all know about big companies lurking and I can tell you for a fact that they are. If that's not incentive enough for you to (try and) make quality work and display a pro attitude then you most certainly won't get the work and the rest of us, I'm sure, can ignore  you.</body>

everyone starts posting tees again?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I agree with Kyle. I am also sick of reading the drama people bring. either make kyle moderator or take kyles lead and just post tees.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

how does this make sense when he just told us he comes here to fight with people?

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;cite&gt;Kyle Crawford said:&lt;/cite&gt; i dont even think of it as a design, tshirt site anymore.
its a place I can fight people and win and post the shit i post on twitter about ez and occassionally if not frequently sell or post something I bought&lt;/blockquote&gt;

if you haven't noticed, Mr. Crawford adds a good percentage of the drama to this site. that and his minion of undesirables.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

i second that.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

get a job&lt;/blockquote&gt;

      <body>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;cite&gt;heavyprints said:&lt;/cite&gt; It wasn't really that great. Like 90% of the people talking about how great it used to be just hung out here to be snarky to other people and hang on the balls of better artists, who they eventually ran away with their pointless drama. Now they're the better artists and are walking away from younger artists drama.

The fact is that Jimmy gave a fuck about this site though, and it sucks to lose him.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

Nostalgia goggles perhaps?

And yes Jimmy did go out of his way to help this community, sucks man.</body>

      <body>Why don't we make this like other formus with different sections of talk. That way everyone could have a laugh and talk shit in one area and be serious in the other. And at the top we could have a FAQ section with links to the recources section and to answer all those n00bish "What tablet" questions.

Just an idea of course</body>

      <body>Jimmy was a moderator right? But it seems like the dude was too busy to come regulate this site. I think if someone had been efficiently moderating then emptees wouldn't have gone so far down the hole.

We just need some committed people who can set aside some time to make sure the threads and tee section stay cleaned up along with some good troll-patrolling.</body>

      <body>I've been on here 7 months and I've loved this site the whole time.  I do think some of the people are annoying, but I just try to ignore them.  Either way, this website has helped me learn a lot more about t-shirt design and just 'Design' in general.  

Why complain, everyone should just do their best to contribute to the community.

      <body>I remember the days when people came on here and talked about there brands and designs. People weren't ripping others for asking questions or starting drama over stupid shit.  Everyone was equal on here and had opinions and people respected them.  Now I look at the talk section and 75% of the topics aren't design or about the apparel industry. More about movies, drama with people, bitching and ripping other people for some shit they did or didnt do.
I miss emptees 2008.</body>

      <body>There was drama here back in the day, it's why the Manticores were made. Nothings changed, maybe people are just burned out on shirts, or are out growing the site and getting on with other things. I do notice that the one year mark seems to be a divide. I don't know why that is. Emptees got a case of the us vs them along time ago. We were all noobs once. Don't worry about it so much.</body>

      <body>&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;cite&gt;Kevvbo said:&lt;/cite&gt; Wow, this makes me extremely sad, but I seriously don't blame Jimmy one bit. This site used to inspire and excite me, but anymore its just not what it used to be when I joined. :(

I've been thinking a lot about it lately. I wish I had great web developing skills and put together a new site much like how emptees used to be. Where you could come to exchange ideas, tips and some jokes, but it be by invite only. No loves on tees, just constructive criticism so we could all benefit and grow. Maybe one day :/&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I could do that. I might do that.</body>

everyone starts posting tees again?&lt;/blockquote&gt;

I agree with Kyle. I am also sick of reading the drama people bring. either make kyle moderator or take kyles lead and just post tees.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

how does this make sense when he just told us he comes here to fight with people?

&lt;blockquote&gt;&lt;cite&gt;Kyle Crawford said:&lt;/cite&gt; i dont even think of it as a design, tshirt site anymore.
its a place I can fight people and win and post the shit i post on twitter about ez and occassionally if not frequently sell or post something I bought&lt;/blockquote&gt;

if you haven't noticed, Mr. Crawford adds a good percentage of the drama to this site. that and his minion of undesirables.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

i second that.&lt;/blockquote&gt;

get a job&lt;/blockquote&gt;
