Remember when you would get an extra nice dress for Easter Sunday? It would then be worn to church or weddings or other events. Post coords that evoke nostalgia for that time.

I'm sorry, are we sure this wasn't mistaken for the ita thread? There were so many extremely photoshopped faces, peeking petticoats, and low effort coords. I thought that that was the lowest " 'ita' criteria " we've been using for the past couple of years?

I'm a near-complete beginner to con culture and the "scene" due to zero exposure to it until recently and I have too many questions swimming around in my head that I need to ask. I've only been to a couple of small ones in my mostly-desolate area and I want to step up to traveling to bigger ones but I'm overwhelmed. Please bear with me.
>Do a majority of congoers cosplay? I know it's common, but is it seen as a faux pas to not cosplay?
>Likewise, is it seen as a faux pas to wear the same cosplay more than once in a multi-day event, or to not wear it some days?
>I've read a lot on this board about "after hours" events and parties that aren't scheduled by the con staff. Do you have to get invited to things like that, or how do people find out about them?
>Do cons that don't have a stated sub-demographic (ones that use terms like "fandom" or "pop culture" instead of specifically "fantasy" or "otaku" or something) tend to accept all demographics? Would you be looked at weird for going to something more "western" like SDCC in an anime cosplay, or would you expect to see a lot of them?
>Why do some huge cons like Colossal and Dragon seem to place such significance on getting a hotel room onsite as opposed to just being nearby? Surely not just traffic, right?
>What's a "gull"?
>How do you not get sick every time you go to one?
>How do you keep track of scheduling for multiple cons across multiple years? Do you get notified about them? When is "con season"?
>If you're partying, how do you deal with inevitable hangovers or crashes?
And some more personal questions
>If you cosplay, what's normally your budget? Both in terms of time and money.
>How do you make friends at a con if you're not going with a group?
>How many cons do you go to yearly or on a recurring basis? There are a fuckton I want to see but I'm not sure if my expectations are unreasonable.
Thank you for your time.

Unironically just buy a costume, wig, and make up supplies. Don't worry if it's good enough, you should focus on just starting period. The more you actually do it, the more you'll understand how it works, what you'll want changed, and improve. Don't worry about starting perfect, just start.

They got the nickname because they were developed for people with autism, but these things are quite handy even if you don't have autism. Especially for cosplayers.

Green - Feel Free to approach me and start a conversation
Yellow - Don't approach me unless I already know you
Red - Don't approach me, I'm busy

Just hanging in the hall and want people to approach you for pictures? Flip it to green. On your way to a panel/event and don't want to get stopped? Flip it to yellow. Sitting down to eat and don't want to be bothered? Flip it to red.

That becomes a bit of a gray area, but the general rule of thumb is if they know your name, it's probably safe to talk to them. However, for some people it means they only wanted to be approached by close friends. Just know that yellow means they may not be in their best mood so don't get offended if they brush you off.

As a cosplayer they worked great for me. Lots of people stop and ask me and my friends for pictures and sometimes I'm just not up for posing for photos.

Im looking to do a few jackets for my group cosplay.
We're going to do off duty Zaku pilots for an upcoming anime convention and we all agreed to do a custom version of the jacket below, but the issue is none of us really know what type of jacket it is (or what type it would be called) so we can order them. One of my friends said Parka, the other said it kinda looks like a Field jacket.

Guys, how old is too old?

Like, I am an oldfag in his mid 40s. Used to be very involved in the con scene back in the 90s and early 00s. I am currently on a very nostalgic mood about those days of yore, and planning to visit a few of the big cons to see how's the fandom nowadays. Would I be, as you youngsters say, cringe? Worse, would other congoers immediately assume I am a creepy pedophile? I don't really want to ruin some kids con experience like that.

Two things, I would be attending alone because the few con buddies from back then that I still keep in contact, are too jaded and busy to give a shit. Also, I am considering if it is a good idea to go cosplaying as an old timer character.

You went in what I consider the golden years so it won't be anything like you remember but cons can still be fun. Cosplaying an age appropriate character especially. I don't think anyone would think you're out of place. The average con age is probably higher now than when we went.

Enjoy. Have a good time. I'm not quite as old (mid 30s) but I still enjoy soloing cons. The feeling you get at cons, even with the way the scene has changed (for the worse), it's hard to capture anywhere else.

The funniest part is that they'd get more interaction and posts on their porn boards but they'd rather come here and invade the "female board" (lmao not anymore, it's full of porn addicts and trannies just like they wanted) that gets maybe 50 posts a day anymore and has active threads dating back to 2018 with how inactive it is.

Not everyone wants to see porn 24/7, sometimes you just want to admire beautiful cosplay.
