Now, don't get me wrong - I'm ALL about room parties, but God dammit. I'm one of the only people in my group that really gets into cosplaying. I like being among the people, getting in pictures, going to ~2 panels a day. I participated in my first photoshoot a few months ago and had to go alone; I'm as extroverted as they come, but that was still pretty tough. Meanwhile, my folks hung behind and did nothing during the day.

Not really annoying, just disheartening:

While going alone isn't the end of the world for me being at a con with a group of friends who share your interests sounds so fun I almost get a bit jealous when i read about some of the stories online.

Whenever I get to a hotel before noon I'm usually able to check in early. It helps to be a rewards member for most hotel chains cause they tend to be a bit more forgiving for someone who seems 'loyal' to the brand. The only time I haven't been able to check in early has been because housekeeping isn't finished and that usually only happens at massive hotels with hundreds of rooms. Try it next time!

>>10335604
My usual con crowd is always done by 5pm and it wears me out because they just want to get photos and then eat and retire. Like damn, I haven't been to a panel I haven't hosted in ten years, let me be social. It's doubly shitty when we rode to the con together and I'm definitely not letting them take my car home.

My personal peeve is that contests take up your entire day. You're lucky if you get an hour between judging and check-in to go eat. My tits are always hurting, I'm always tired of carrying whatever prop, etc. I know that's entirely my own fault but I wish there was a more streamlined way of doing prejudging+contest without having to be awake and in cosplay for fifteen hours or whatever.

I also can't fucking stand the guys that walk around con centers blasting music from a speaker or boombox. It's not 2006 anymore, y'all, shut the hell up. I've seen cons say that it's against the rules these days but it never fails that I walk past someone still playing their animu Nightcore remixes as they walk through a crowd.

How expensive the cost of attending cons has become. At the big cons like AX and Dragoncon you're spending over $1000 for the total hotel room. Even Katsucon rooms are charging over $200 per night. I remember when they were charging only 125 a night for rooms.

Using a cosplay alias can minimize the danger of fear of reaching out to strangers. A comfortable distance. So long as you're still able to talk and get to know people, is it really an issue that you don't know their real name? I've seen many people arrange long flights to meet people they've been talking with online for years. I don't feel like its as inhibiting as you think it is. Is it different from our old age? Absolutely, but I don't think that automatically makes it bad.

That being said, the cliquey, gatekeeping, and/or competitive nature of con goers today is a disease.

Also, roommates that want to stay onsite but don't want to split the room evenly. I don't want to pay 80% of the hotel, so you can afford your 20th anime figure and take another friend with you (who also doesn't do an even split either).

It annoys me when dance groups don’t have anyone handling the crowd around them, leaving little space to pass by. I love seeing them around and watching if I have the time, but I hate getting stuck in a bottleneck trying to get by, especially if I’m trying to get to a panel on time and there’s no alternate route.

Also not a fan of people who wear a stereo and play loud music in the halls before 9pm. I get they’re probably hyped for the dance later but I wanna be able to hear my friends talking.

Speaking of dances. I never go because I know so many people use it as an excuse to get high on whatever substance and I genuinely want nothing to do with that shit. Weed and cigarettes smell awful enough, I don’t want to be around randos who are high off their ass bumping into me or trying to touch me.

Every time it was: eat breakfast included with the room, come back to the room, dick around on their laptop or console/handheld the entire time. They MIGHT walk around the dealer hall once assuming they can borrow a badge for some hours.

I didn't care till it was always the same shit in the room "man this con sucks I heard on /cgl/ <dumb_shit>, that's fucking stupid", possibly drink if there was free booze and mixer. That or they just shitpost in discord and look at pics from the con. I'm not mean, I don't care if that's all they want to do, but what really got me was how they'd shit talk everything about the con constantly without barely stepping much more than a foot into any event.

I think a lot of it has to do with being that a lot of the /cgl/'s social interactions that isn't forced by work comes from convention meetups, and their social skills are horrid.

One common thing I found with all of those traits from my time rooming with /cgl/ is that people who were the worst often worked part time living at home or never been on their own outside the home. Mindsets change a lot and people tend to loosen up after they realize the world moves regardless of them and their dumb bullshit. I've also noticed the drama levels and stuff are non existent with gulls who work fulltime vs. those who don't to where it's night and day.

People i meet who also do fulltime work, know what bills are, and attend cons often are chill, never care what others do so long as not affecting others, and generally treat the weekend like a vacation. The ones that start shit are almost always college age level or fresh out of college not with a job yet(so most gulls) and don't understand anything. I know that sounds boomer but I started working after HS to push myself through community college and still in my mid 20's so stuck in that limbo age.

Can't help but just laugh and walk away to most of the insignificant shit that cgl makes being the dooms day shit, when nothing goes on but it's just their short time of the year for social shit.

I really only come to this board when going to a con for heads up on cons on small pieces of info, and sometimes meetup areas to avoid. Really hate trying to socialize at a bar in a hotel, only to realize gulls are using that as a meetup spot and go HEY ANON I REMEMBER YOU COME ON OVER HERE WHAT ARE YOU DOING AT THE BAR?! then proceed to interrupt any conversions being had with constant bugging.

Most con threads and cgl meetups often have some discord attached to them, or discord group that stays in touch. It's fairly normal now to where cgl and discords are going to overlap a great deal.

Pure cgl drama often comes from related sources, it's rare any specific posting about drama that could be used to determine an exact person is posted here. It's always been something, kik/facebook/snapchat/twitter/tumblr/google doc shit/etc, dunno why would wouldn't understand that if you've been on cgl for any length of time. Discord is pretty much the go-to these since it's so easy to just make a channel and join, and it's fair to assume that most people have a discord these days.

people who've known people on /cgl/ for years have used some equivelent platform in the past, or such. most people who go to conventions have a discord or instagram. You must really be selective or fooling yourself to think otherwise. I know some people from prior cons I just meetup up with, but it's foolish to say the majoritiy of cgl doesn't know/use discord to some extent. There are multiple /cgl/ based discords, I have been in a few during my years of conventions.

I know for a fact much of PNW/Cali /cgl/ uses discord for convention events and meetups constantly. If you're speaking about lolita comm shit then duh, no one uses discord for that purpose.

Those people with huge amounts of followers that no one knows their name is what im talking about mostly.
I feel you on that part, like you can't even tell me your fucking name your mother gave you? you can fuck off.
Most cosplayers are also really shallow and that's part of the reason they won't talk to new people. I hate instagram cosplayers as a whole.
You're playing dressup, you don't need to put yourself in witness protection cause you think you're cuter than you are. Stupid cunts. It's like they're ashamed of doing what they do, so why fucking do it? makes no sense.

Other than "I meet up with my known friends who also do cgl" that doesn't mean much, if something is posted on cgl for a meetup, people will go to it, thus a /cgl/ meetup. You're horribly misusing the term crossborder since the meaning is dead to everyone outside the ita community or very small group of known friends at this point. Which, if you are stating that small controlled group of friends = cgl meetup, nah.

> if you're in some public server with hundreds of people
Get a load of this anon right here. The largest cgl server I know has 130 members, that's only because the channel discusses about 5-7 cons at any given time for their area.

>that isn't where the proper room parties and meets are taking place.
What fucking standard are you using for this other than "it's not true cgl unless my small group"? I went to acen one year, cgl thread "meetup down stairs" same shit was posted in the discord, and sure enough it was all cgl people.

The only people I know who only do /cgl/ at this point are the ita community. /p/ is a good resource for anyone who is into photography that may also happen to go to cons and enjoy cosplay, uh oh by that standard I could be a "crossboarder!". That term is completely dead to anyone outside groups that want to sniff their own farts and talk about "Sigh remember when cons were about true anime?

My biggest gripe with a couple of my local cons is they don’t vet their panelists. Ive attended too many panels that are being run by people who SO CLEARLY know nothing about what they’re presenting on. Seriously, how hard can it be to ask for some portfolios/links to cosplay pages/what have you? To make things even worse, I’ve been seeing a trend of cons waiting until a few days before the con to accept panels, release the schedule, approve artist alley tables, etc. Tons of employers require 2 weeks notice for time off requests, it’s seriously so disrespectful to the people offering their time to the event and Or sucks noticing how many people have to drop out just because they weren’t given enough advance notice to rearrange their schedules.

[Anonymous No.10343065]

People who bring their obviously not interested or not old enough kids into the con and expect everyone around them to be family friendly and accepting of their little brats.

Ironic/Bad cosplay that take it too far and have to show everyone LOOK AT ME shit
Anyone who brings in their dirty laundry drama and gossip to the con and expect anyone to care
People who bring in randos to my room party event when I say no randos


Last and most important: Anyone who brings up their significant other to the room to "chill" but obviously there are issues between them for shit, additionally anyone who bring their other doesn't include them on the bill being split.

I think you’re the stupid one. The comment anon is replying to is implying that minorities in urban areas, who are usually black or Latino, are being colonized and use “y’all” as a side eye to their “colonizers”, who I would assume refers to white people in general based on the context. Not all white people in America are British, the vast majority alive today are from families who had nothing to do with colonization, and most of these families immigrated after the initial colonization. Black people are not native to North America and were not colonized in the Americas, the only people who were colonized in the Americas were the people of the Native American tribes.

This sentence does not contest whether America was colonized. If it contests the colonization of anywhere, it’s Africa, which obviously experienced colonization as well.

>At no point did I say individual people were bad for existing. I'm saying that the fact that white people still exist on colonized land is an issue.
What do you expect these people to do? They live on the land they were born in, they can’t go to wherever in Europe their family came from since they likely don’t even speak the language.

Got a bunch of shit the whole con and couldn't figure out why. It wasn't till saturday night I asked at a meet what was up, someone told me that it's because of X incident that sounded too insane to be true but people ate it up because epic drama XD.

Supposedly a guy from local meets and cons is a grade A douchebag but did a similar cosplay as me. Once I told people I was out of state and even flashed my license to prove it everyone was "haha buddy buddy time<3" shit. The stupid backhand shit of gossip that can potentially fuck people over is what drives me insane about gulls.

>come back from Japan again from work or some shit
>go to a con
>Mention off handedly I just got back because often my internal clock is off
>WUT U WENT TO JAPAN!?!?!
>show pics of me cosplaying around japan and stuff
always, fucking always
>WTF ANON ARE YOU <DOING COMPLETE NORMAL SHIT HERE> IN JAPAN? THAT'S NOT WHAT YOU DO!
>ask them who told them that in Japan, or how long they've worked there
it's almost always:
"Oh well, I haven't been to japan yet but it's just common sense because of (insert feel good weeb youtube blogger shit here) and such".

I think at cons I should just tell people I go to korea but K fags are even more annoying I feel

People who charge full room rate for floor space at conventions, and not even big ones like AX. No I'm not talking about like, you get a roll away or shit I mean ur ass is sleeping on the floor.

Floor space should not be the same price as a bed, it's literally floor space it should not be full price

I understand like for huge cons, comiket/ax/CC/dragon con. Hotels are super up there so sometimes it's "welp either take a hike or pay up" but tons of people in /cgl. I've roomed with charge same rates as bed.

One time I offered 75 for the weekend to some anon, rate was 125/weekend, offering floor space. We agreed to that, came back after the con asking me for the other 50 and was like "yeah that's the room rate". Or they straight up just go "it's same as beds lol"

This has happened multiple times, ALA/Fanime/AX as well as some other LA cons

I kinda sorta understand this one. Whoever's name is on the room is using the full price per person as a hedge to cover the room costs just in case of any last minute bailouts.

[Anonymous No.10349898]

I'm on board with you on this one, but if everyone shows up you shouldn't charge full rates. When I sell floor space for cons I do, it 50% a bed cost. If you do pay full price and everyone shows up I refund or say "it's pizza/booze money for the room then".

I get that some stuff fucks up, but if you are secured in rooms and shit then sell floor space for a full price. Nah. fuck you

Costhots. Just, costhots. And that's coming from a dude. I'm just so very tired of seeing the same half-dozen lazy-ass cosplays like basic bitch printed suit dva instead of the things people are actually passionate about.

I hate this so much, I can't fathom spending so much money to pay for travel and a hotel to just sit in my room and smoke and drink all day long. Just do that at home?

oldfag here.

I can completely relate, anon. However on the using an alias instead of the name, it really helps to minimize dealing with creepy people.

But yes, everything has been reduced to superficial online interaction.

where i'm from, gate keepers in cosplay isn't really a thing anymore. Younger cosplayers would rather enjoy taking pictures or generally instagramming rather than focusing on being a "top notch cosplayer" and honestly it isn't so bad.
