The problem with Geek Eire (apart from everything they've done) is that they don't care about quality. They think they're edgy and controversial and too cool for us to even comprehend.

The reality is that you're fucking boring, lads. Sean is an insufferable aspie fuck and I can't even understand a word that comes out of his mumbling little butt slave.

Combine that with a complete lack of editing skills, lots of background noise, dead air and a complete disregard for any form of scripting and you're left with something that no one in their right minds would listen to for more than a minute.

They're like the parents of the world's ugliest retard baby that shows up to a playgroup and scream about how their kid's the greatest person to ever live.

Totally agree here.

Abit on topic. I would like to cosplay my OC, shes based off a drawing I done and nothing to do with anything. I read online somewhere that cosplaying your OC that's based off of a comic or a game or something is a bit douchy.

>Have you ever seen an OC walking around the place before?

How would you know if it was somebody's OC if it's only known to them?

Unless the costume's really elaborate and eye-catching I wouldn't see the point if it was me personally. Cosplay is mostly about the attention which you probably won't get if people don't know who you are. If you don't care about the attention then go for it, I wouldn't have a problem with anyone who wanted to.

>> No.7842967

I dunno, it seems awkward. You have to explain to people who you are, and no1curr usually. Then there's the fact that no visual references exist, so even if you do a stellar job, you won't get the recognition.

>> No.7843510

There have been numerous undisputable masterpieces in /eire/'s time, such as the strikingly realistic classic Howth or its medieval counterpart The fake faggot germaboo Trinity. Laois/JealousAnon will not join their ranks; its surface is too generic, its presentation too provocative and its messages too obscure. Its take on the abysmal is an illumination in one person’s despair, but a paroxysm of another’s perversion. It will remain underground – treasured by the most avant-garde among intellectuals for its edifying if horrifying insight into the fundamentals of human morality. Philistines and self-proclaimed critics alike will shun Laois/JealousAnon, but you can’t fault them for that. It takes wisdom to appreciate its subtleties, and courage to side with the unpopular opinion. Sed domi maneas paresque nobis novem continuas fututiones.

Laois/JealousAnon is a cult classic, a chef d'oeuvrea buried under false preconceptions and unfounded criticism. This gem is hidden because it does not shine; it is buried because its tone is that of abyssal black. Laois/JealousAnon pries into to the darkest corners of our subconscious, the most visceral of our cognition, the most carnal of our urges, and the most primal of our instincts. Its sublimity will ever be debated yet always remain objectively irrefutable; the fundamental insight it provides into human and perhaps animalistic nature may shape the basis of /eire/ personalities for centuries to come.

Yes indeed, The time of anonymous's sovereignty over /eire/ has passed; Laois/JealousAnon is the herald of a new era that is to come.

They're based up north so shipping is reasonable am there's a bigger selection as far as shore, pigments, that kind of stuff, than anywhere else I've seen locally. (It all seems to be the same brand)

There was a great online art shop I found for clays and tools and stuff but I can't remember it off the top of my head, I'll report back on that.

Most people in the convention scene won't make any public criticism in fear of losing friends, opportunity or it reflecting badly on things they're involved with.

Making fun of their personality traits and plotting against them isn't good criticism. It's hating and nobody likes a hater.

If you can't say it to their faces then you lose all credibility in my opinion and it makes you a coward. Criticising them anonymously to other people won't improve their content. You would want to send the criticism directly to them or else you're just wasting your time.

If it makes them happy that's all that matters to them even if it means it's not the best quality.

Making fun of undesirable personality traits may not be "good" criticism, but it's still a valid thing to criticize, as a bad personality can ruin otherwise good content. And I know it's been said they're aspies, but you'd want to have a remarkably high level of Aspberger's to be incapable of seeing anonymous comments and taking them on board.
So they aren't directed towards you as blatantly as "Dear ____, here is a bunch of stuff I hate plz change it". They still highlight shortcomings, and a normal person can usually tell when anons have a point. (Conversely it is also often clear when someone is getting buttmad and throwing a vendetta around.)

Hey Gas Con, You don't get a medal for participation.

Gas Con is so bad it would have been better if they ran nothing. They should have gave up after their horrid first year. You really can't recover from putting an art thief in your artist alley and covering it up. Then you have the terrible guests, lack of traders and nobody turning up two years in a row.

You have to be trying pretty hard to be worse than Gas Con. If a cons worse than Gas Con then it's maybe a smart idea to immigrate out of embrassnent.

Gas Con is nothing like Dash Con because people actually wanted to go to Dash Con. I'd compare Gas Con to paying to stay at a friends house for the weekend and being insulted.

That really sucks, I've tried to avoid as much as possible on it before playing. It's a game that really needs that suspense and mystery to be at its best. You should be careful to not have any of the rest of the game spoiled!

Have you heard about the next game, another episode? Just released in Japan a couple of weeks ago and seems much more action based than visual novel.

They still get made but they're pretty awful, like all the bad parts from before condensed into 50 posts. Everything seems to be a repost, like somebody is just forcing it to still exist.

Do you still go to /v/ or did you migrate to infinity chan?

I had the first game spoiled for me on /v/, just who was the mastermind, but I didn't really have a clue about anything else so it was more about the destination than the journey, etc etc. Not had much of SDR2 spoiled but I avoid the threads on /v/ about DR like a plague and will do until it's finished. I imported the limited edition from the US. They took fucking ages getting it here but it made it in the end. I still haven't finished it, just been playing a lot of stuff in the meantime.

>Have you heard about the next game, another episode?
Yeah, I've looked at gameplay of it and I think it looks pretty rad. I'm hoping they get the Western version of it pushed out the door ASAP.

>They still get made but they're pretty awful, like all the bad parts from before condensed into 50 posts. Everything seems to be a repost, like somebody is just forcing it to still exist.

/eire/ in a nutshell. We had some great times but people samefagging every thread, people 'doxxing' or people pretending to be other people/picking fights for no reason really brought it down, not to mention several faggots who'd whinge day in/day out about the illustrious personalities circlejerking. They got their wish anyway, and it's fucking dead.

I still browse /v/, only ever really hang around there or /cgl/ these days

Yeah, seems to be more focused on horror than the others and looks a real change of pace. Would love if it made it out next year.
Really need to play 999 on the ds as well, from the same developers and is supposed to be really good.

>We had some great times but people samefagging every thread, people 'doxxing' or people pretending to be other people/picking fights for no reason really brought it down

Most people were really cool, just 2 or 3 intent on disrupting and I guess they won in the end which is a shame. I never imagined an Irish group on 4chan would be the most autistic and dysfunctional thing I'd ever encounter on the internet though. We really are on another level to most other countries, good fun in small doses but I've had enough now as well.

Friend recommended I play 999 and Virtue's Last Reward too, must give them a go later this year. My backlog is fucking massive.

I think it's funny that /eire/ was so fucking dysfunctional but another meetup went off without a hitch around this time last month, now the place is just completely dead. I'll miss chatting to a few of the lads like Jaggy, Rusty and Rooster.

Who remembers the good days?

Like when Amy King was going on how she's the best cosplayer in Ireland and blamed it on her sister because of all the abuse she got. Then she told us all to go and die.

How about when Leigh Walsh was starting fights with the Bronies of Ireland.

I miss those days....

I would actually do a pretty decent podcast, since I can do different voices and shit and actually have a personality however insufferable some people have it.

I was meaning to do one called "Survival Strategy" a while back. Might still do it yet, but my interests are spread too thin these days to focus on anything.

Can't keep up with anime these days so I've given up, more or less given up at cons due to cost and not relating to most people I meet at them.

people always post shit pictures of Amy but there are actually some good ones of her out there too. She can be very attractive in her own way and if she isn't who cares that's not what cosplay should be about?

I mean tbh it's a weird comparison but it reminds me of this tweet I read about the Whorearchy; "I work in a high class brothel." "Calm down honey we're all sucking dick for a living."

I kind of feel that way about cosplayers. You're still all doing the same thing and viewed much the same way by outsiders. Though sucking less dick. Probably.
