Things you’re TIRED of in the emptees 'talk' section.

posted about 1 month ago by DrewGliever

A recent post sparked up some pretty negative feelings people have toward posts regarding personal issues - so while we’re all crying about shit that bugs us, what would you like to see LESS of here on emptees?

    politics wouldn’t be so rough if people were a bit more open to other views - but that will never happen, and the childish arguing will continue!

    Dude, you basically singled me out. I could have said much worse.

    That would be like me quoting something you said and then saying,

    "I hate it when people submit the same shirt 'design' over and over again with a different twist on it and think it’s something new and creative."

    There are a lot of great designers on this site. I am tired of some people treating the threads like a game and being childish posting things off topic and being sarcastic all the time. If you don’t have something of benefit to say on the thread don’t type anything so the site can keep its merit and not become a place that people speak of in a negative light. Basically, have fun but be professional (More Often)!

    It’s not like the threads have vague titles. If you’re not into it, don’t click on it. This is a community containing many self employed people so obviously we’re are going to be passionate about politics. Especially given the state of our economy and the magnitude of the upcoming election.

    Oh, Im just starting out and I would think of it as a joke to sale my designs for anything more than $50. You get what im saying at all?

    I could see how it would effect you if my designs are cheaper, but I don’t really think my stuff is all that good yet.

    just wait until you get better than. imagine that a customer would want to buy something from me with 200 let’s say when you and others ask 4 times less. no matter the quality and stuff, they won’t buy from me because they will say "i must be able to find someone who does this just as good for at least two times less".
    and let me tell you, your design is not worth 50$ just because you think so. it’s all a matter of rewuest and fashion. you could do a 30 minutes thingy and sell it for 300 if the client really wants it.
    hope you catch my/.our drift

    AND, on topic..long offtopics like this one:)

    Exactly. It’s no different than people posting threads touting their new lines/products. I imagine it’s why Emptees has a hype/shameless self promotion category. Being an artist is all about networking and marketing yourself. No marketing, no visibility, no jobs, no pay, stay at McDonalds, girlfriend/boyfriend leaves you for good looking paid designer, long hours spent crying and drinking, children point and laugh at the penniless artist who has way too many cats.

    people needlessly being an asshole because they can feel good about themselves while hiding behind the internet. just shit talking in general. i know its the internet, but if people here are trying to be professional designers and/or printers then maybe they should try to act somewhat professionally. for instance, i might not be printing anything myself as of yet, but one dood working for a printer i was thinking of printing with has really turned me off to printing with them, simply because of some off handed asshole remarks they’ve made on here. like i said, sure, its the internet, people are going to be assholes, deal with it...but just for advice’s sake, if you are on here to become a better tshirt designer, or just want to upgrade your skills as a professional designer, i would think its good practice to act somewhat professionally on emptees...or at least, not negatively.

    totally agree...but its when the sarcasm and humor turn into being negative, shit talking, and making fun of others that the environment here starts to darken.

    so i agree with you on the humour aspect, but i sort of also agree with jpolo about still keeping it somewhat professional, mostly in a sense of keeping things positive. i mean, you can be funny and sarcastic without putting down others.

    Emptees wouldn’t be Emptees if all the humour and sarcasm magically disappeared.

    totally agree...but its when the sarcasm and humor turn into being negative, shit talking, and making fun of others that the environment here starts to darken.

    so i agree with you on the humour aspect, but i sort of also agree with jpolo about still keeping it somewhat professional, mostly in a sense of keeping things positive. i mean, you can be funny and sarcastic without putting down others.

    Absolutely. The people who put down others don’t get away with it though. Their brand or identity is badly reflected on and people know that they aren’t very nice.

    I think Emptees is still very good compared to pretty much all the other websites in this style.

    I’ve always wondered what the ratio of Emptees members vs. thread posters is because it seems like there’s a good chunk that post regularly. So far the clique haters seem to be relatively new. I’ve only been here 8 months but I know when I first got here it seemed clique heavy to me too but that’s what a community is. Just dive in....

    But back on topic: I hate NSFW posts because I’m rarely on the computer at home when I can reap the benefits

    I think this is pretty true. For the most part, people who stick around seem to be more apt to fit in. When newbies come on here, they don’t really get how everything works, and how everyone acts/talks and they get all hissy and offended.

    The only thing that irks me is the ridiculously small width for images in comments. In an art community, 500px forced width is anemic. Pagination would be nice. That way a single, relevant thread per topic would be feasible. A better/smarter search too. All function issues.

    If there are topics I care not to discuss with y’all (talking politics, animal rights, atheism, music - the list goes on), I can choose to not read the threads.

    Not only do I agree with 500px being too small, but I disagree with frenden as he described this as "anemic" when I am myself anemic and am supposed to take iron supplements daily and this is where my pale complection comes from. I am SUPER SENSITIVE ABOUT THIS FRENDEN YOU ASS
