/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

I think a lot of you guys are missing the point of cosplay entirely. If you're just going out to have fun, there is absolutely no problem buying your things. Most people in the cosplay world, if I'm correct, don't really care if they have their photos taken or not. They're just there to HAVE FUN. It's a hobby, they don't NEED to make their things. It's downright fucking rude to shame people just for trying to have fun.
Yes, there are those asshats who claim it as their own and try to go into contests with it, yes, they exist. They should be scolded for it.
Yes, it's awesome someone put so much love and care into their costumes, extra kudos to them, people like that are very inspirational, and they drive many others, including me, to improve my skill.

It's funny, you people claim to hate the show Heroes of Cosplay. Yet you all act exactly like the girls on that show.
