Lots of newly registered and some hijacked accounts started uploading malware. I don't know who were behind that but after a few weeks of that they stopped allowing new users in. Personally, I think it was either Autodesk or another large company like that trying to get the site down but that may be just my paranoia.

They don't.
I work in this industry for about 3 years now and it's so fucking riddled with gatekeeping everywhere it's ridiculous, now it's even harder for you to get information or work without being friends with some OldFag that works with 3D since 2003 and has all the tutorials that actually matter.
Most books are money traps filled with bullshit, as are most courses.
This is one of the reasons why there are few decent technical artists, try learning that shit on your own.
I can count on my fingers the number of good rigging artists (that aren't just skinWeight-painters) in my country, and it's mostly because of knowledge gateKeeping.
fuck boomers and insecure Gen-X'ers

internet is turned into shit
we are living in a giant fucking trash can at this point
schmoogle seo shits internet up, forums slowly die out
you stumble upon ok-ayish article, you better save it asap. can't be sure if you ever see it again later because some faggot down the line will "optimize it" and since the faggot in charge of doing that knows fuck all, important info will be removed or just remove article.
less and less articles in general, for some reason videos with some annoying cumguzzling faggot's facecam glued on it explaining basic shit over and over(and failing) is the preferred medium to share knowledge now. NO FUCK IT
let's be clear, that's not a fucking "knowledge", that's parroting the parroted content, at best some basics, bullshit you can read in help/manual yourself
there ARE still hidden gems out there, people actually working in the industry sharing knowledge, but to find them? good fucking LUCK
remember the cult of rig guy?
explaining IK solvers and rigging in depth from someone who DOES this on the daily basis?
barely made 100 views on youtube. hundred of views.
you can't seriously expect retarded popularity-based schmoogle NN to promote that any time soon
but the WORST offender?
messengers. discucks, telegrams, that sort of shit. these faggot ass conferences are not even indexed by schmoogle at all. any convo going on there and you're not in? lost at the mercy of whatever faggot that owns the show. lost for internet, lost for us, lost for history.

the tutorials... let's just say that only a small fraction of them are really worth to watch.
if you are just starting out and are adamant on using blender, then you're better off simply reading their official manual to get accustomed with interface.
during that, watch general modelling techniques from people like arrimus or warwick, try to replicate what you have seen in blender, then apply the knowledge you have gained to your own projects
it's might not necessarily be the best approach to learning since you'll be stuck often trying to translate it to blender interface, but I believe it's better than mindlessly copying donut or chair since it will require you to actively explore your chosen 3DDCC.

>> No.737851
