>most of the OC lately is just "LAWL WHACKY LITTLE GIRLS".
Teh truth is that the majority of Heyuri OC (at least outside of oekaki) is made by liek 2 people, and one of them is the primary propagator of most OC and threads in that vein. They have a habit of forcing things a little too much sometimes, but if it's in keeping with Heyuri's spirit, it's watevar biggrin

>hailing the administrators/managers/mods/whatever as gods is nearly just as bad
"MODS = GODS" is an ancient 4chan thing - older than some of the users here - so I wouldn't read too much into that

Back in "teh golden age of Heyuri", OC that glorified Heyuri staff-san and our resident namefags was by far the most common form of OC - it's significantly less common these days, for better or worse

>Make an exploitable and put in in a thread to see what people come up with
Merits of templates (or lack thereof) aside, it's surprisingly difficult to get users involved with anything requiring more effort than drawing stick figures in mspaint (and even then, some struggle with that...). The fact we managed to make 2 music albums is nothing short of miraculous

Teh 2nd truth is that many imageboard users are by and large a lot more useless these days than they used to be, and have lost the ability (or even the desire) to shop. Besides pr0nz, Photoshop used to be one of the core elements of imageboard culture, but a lot of people now prefer to use imageboards as a livejournal substitute... rolleyes

>Provide/Receive constructive criticism
Rather than criticism, I think what's missing these days compared to the Heyuri of yore is the positive feedback. In 2020, if you put the effort into making something, you would get a big wave of replies saying "WIN", "HOLY SHIT I LOL'D", "POSTING IN AN EPIC THREAD", etc. - it made all the effort of producing the OC worth it

I'm sure users today are still appreciating or LOLing at things being posted, but if it's not explicitly expressed, the OC maker will think it fell flat and be dissuaded from making more

Provide the response u would liek 2 receive, and thou shall receiveth!
