[quote=Razorslash][url=http://yuumei.deviantart.com/journal/Respect-Yourself-351677123]This[/url] has caused some commotion on DA quite a few times(recently) and basically shows how an industry destroys itself in oblivion.

Idk how this collage stuff's supposed to benefit anyone (maybe except the free client we're talking about here). It's actually quite understandable that some people get pissed after awhile.. i mean, looking at both sides of the argument ; "if you dont like it, dont look at it"/ "request yourself!11" [b]or[/b] the ones that scream "self narcissism"/ "pay the artist!". But as i digress...

OK. we get it. The artist doesn't mind bellringer's requests thats why (s)he drew him right? but for one person alone to hog the show of requests lately really show how artists bash the industry (even hobbists) who unknowingly draw for free just for a tiny speck of exposure. Trust me, this "never ending" collage would benefit no one except maybe an ego boost for bellringer. Nobody's gonna see that non-existant collage and go " WOW dayum, look at dem superb drawings! i am going to search up every artist from this never-ending collage so i can look up to them as my senpai an--"

[b]NO[/b]. it doesn't happen this way. I'll leave how big corporations take advantage of artists to the video and how artists dig holes and jump in. Destroying a whole industry as a whole just isn't cool.

And yes, i expect some flaming to happen.. but to bellringer, i harbour no evil thoughts or grudge against you. However, for you to refute stuff like "Could it be Jealousy?", "i has ppl to defend me" can really make others snap. At the same time, making you come off really egoistical person. Specially since there's this big fat drawing of you up there.
I don't know if your actions of requesting are intentional or not, it's okay to lighten it up and maybe think up of other suggestions like actually posting part of the collage to actually thank the people that drew for you.(thats just one, but i leave the others to you)

Cheers.[/quote]

Yeah, I didn't mind Bellringer's request. I wanted an excuse to draw some sort of actiony, dynamic pose for practice and his character seemed like a good fit for such a pose. I had NO IDEA that he'd been "hogging" requests on Basil because I haven't been very actively lately. In fact, I'd never seen him in my life before he shot me a message. I didn't do this for a "speck of exposure" and I was surprised it even made the front page because another one of my drawings was already on the front page. Sometimes I feel really in the mood to draw (almost never) and if someone comes along and wants a drawing, then heck, if I like their look, I'll do it.

Next time I post a drawing on Basil I'm going to post in the description that I don't take requests but do take commissions.

[quote=LeonZan]This guy again? Nobody likes you Bellringer.
If you're SO dam insistent on a collage go PAY actual artists or request from people in RL instead of
spamming basil with your pictures, we're very very sick of seeing you and your narcissism is preventing others from having their pictures requested/posted.

TLDR: Stop spamming basil with your pics, request elsewhere for the collage NOBODY cares about.[/quote]

I don't think he's hogging any artist. All he does is ask. You make it sound like he has his own personal artist who draws only him, takes requests from him, and no one else. he asks many artists, for one picture. just one. And I don't think he pays because the artists don't charge? If they charged they would surely decline if he didnt want to pay. This is an avatar the artists CHOOSE to draw. And I'm pretty sure they too know of the constant submissions of him, yet, they draw him anyway. They, the very artists themselves seem to have no trouble drawing a constantly drawn person and draw him anyway. So why should others have an issue? I dont think he is not getting in the way of anyone's requesting, because if others REALLY wanted a request SO BAD they could ask just as he did. Opening a thumbnail that clearly shows that it is bellringer just to flame him more isn't really a cool move. If you don't want to see anymore of him, ignore the little thumbnail in the little "latest screens" box and move on. You don't HAVE TO it if its really that big of a deal. You can control what picture you want to click. If you are gonna open it, do it to look at the persons actual drawing and pay no attention to who is drawn.

OT: This, is too cute c: I love style veryyy much <3

[quote=gatlingbow]Well you can blame Nexon for that, and also that makes the "Different Styles" vary, that much more. Think before you speak please.

@Danathan If you have even bothered to look for the collage or anything like that, It's made, it is a dynamic collage that can be seen mainly on my stream because the collage will never be finished, it will be a forever expanding peice of paper, set on a scene so I can add, move,Re-arange and re-size any requested drawing that i may have recieved.
So thank you for anyone who has drawn my character or whomever will and the future and to WHOMEVER signed the petition to "Stop BellRinger from requesting" you all have obviously seen I have a positive group of people whom i consider friends and also including any artist who has drawn me whom defend what I have been doing. So much so that you lost your own created arguement and had to lock your own thread to stop you from being bashed. You have no real reason to be angry with me your reasons are flawed: "I don't like to see him taking up the front page" Then what do you want to see taking up the front page, Honestly if I had not done any of this you would not have cared either way. Could it be Jealousy? I don't believe so but that's what others think. I wish to give you all the benefit of the doubt although your truly digging yourself into a hole as you let me climb to a throne that I do not want to be sitting in.[/quote]

Can I touch you.

[quote=danathan]@calebheads He requested 100 artists to draw him for something like a collage? But many people are getting annoyed seeing him drawn by talented artists. Just like @MzMegs[/quote]

Really? D: I had no idea. I haven't been active on Basil for a pretty long while.
