What the fuck is with the sudden influx of shitty namefags on this board? Seriously, over the last 4 months, we've seen some of the worst trips and names in recent memory. And not only are some of them complete cringe faggots, to make matters worse it seems like there are two new namefags popping up every day. Seriously, go into a big thread, you will see at least a couple names you've never seen before.

Every newfag on this board who spends 3 months here seems to feel the need to get a name/trip and become part of le effay community XD. Most of them clearly don't belong. Does anyone have an explanation? I at least want to know why this board is being turned into a shithole.

Making a thread isn't really a serious reaction in my eyes. Besides, I come on here like, most days for at least 10 minutes, if there's something noticeably shitting it up, am I not allowed to be annoyed by it?

Don't tell me that you're actually enjoying the company of dudes like oioi, alec and birthday

you are trying to police the content of this board based on the qualities of the "community", and you are obviously upset that people who use names are making your experience worse for some reason.

Oh god no I didn't mean "belong" in that sense. I mean they just don't get along well with this board and its posters. Take oioi, he still can't accept shit like having more than three pairs of shoes. It's just not how the majority of this board is. Don't pretend /fa/ doesn't have a community. It'd be impossible not to, any group of people brought together by a common interest are in some form a community. I don't really care for working out in the gym, so I don't go on /fit/. That doesn't mean I don't like exercise, it just means I don't like THEIR exercise. Same thing applies here, just with a different board.

i've been around for awhile and this is my opinion

i know ppl say this a lot but it's really true that most good trips/names left, they've all migrated somewhere else like sufu (please don't post on sufu)

i've also noticed there's less threads being made about designers and shit beyond how to dress

considering the quality of everything i'd say the average age of the people posting on /fa/ has dropped significantly over the years

it's not like this all matters anyway, this place was always really shit but, I guess it's been much shittier than before

in comparison, when poet was still around that was a pretty good time

"Squeaky wheel gets the oil" isn't a completely unfounded saying, anon

>> No.9048006

>>9047986
yeah the honest truth is that not a lot of /fa/ has an genuine interest in fashion + some decent taste.
more aware posters eventually run into it so much , that there is a zero interest in trying to actually deal with it so you just end up with meta humor.

example: pigfuck
i enjoy pigfucks posts

>> No.9048014

>>9047960
there are probably plenty of people on /fa/ who don't own more than three pairs of shoes. i don't actually know who oioi is because i don't pay attention to namefields but i don't want him to leave just because he has an unpopular opinion here. /fa/ is a lot different from /fit/ because there is a huge variety of people who come here for different reasons and styles. /fit/, although it is "health and fitness" is essentially just a board about lifting now. it's hard to compare the boards' "communities" when /fa/ has a lot of subcommunities as well, and they don't fight among each other. everyone can get along. the kids who wear rick owens and damir doma get along with the kids who wear joggers and roshes and they get along with the kids who wear prep and they get along with the people who only own three pairs of shoes

I don't think the average age has dropped so much. It's always been a young board. I just think the average time in between first coming to this board and posting has dropped.

I do wish there were way more designer threads, but honestly I don't mind a lot of the threads that have replaced them. It's just that, while the threads have good potential, they get filled with uninformed tards posting and shitting it up.

I do agree that the lack of high fashion threads is annoying. People don't seem to get it, you don't have to be able to afford designer to like it. You can appreciate a lot of fashion as art. And tbh, if you're some youth posting on 4chan, it's probably better like that. Look at most examples of waywt posters that wear designer, it looks awful. The clothes aren't supposed to be worn by them. Even pigfcuk is tall, relatively good looking but oh man does he manage to shit up a lot of creations.

>>9048014
Just cos they don't own more than 3 pairs doesn't mean they wouldn't like to. Oioi is basically a normalfag who dresses in steampunk and hates all things aesthetically pleasing. Function>form, but to a level where if it's nice looking at all, it must be bad. I agree with you, but only to a point. When there are people on a fashion board (mainly /fit/ crossposters lately) saying shit like "clothes are dumb", then it's not a differing opinion on fashion, it's outright disdain for the topic itself.

So why come here?

very true
I mean most everyone looks bad from the start and it takes some experimenting to actually look good
>I just think the average time in between first coming to this board and posting has dropped.
Everyone just needs to be meaner
The only way /fa/ has survived being the way it is (no regulation) is to be as harsh and critical as possible
>>9048006
yeah
it's impossible to force
just a constant thread or two about it would suffice though, like a general

>> No.9048069

>>9048061
Well, why don't we start this? I mean clearly there's interest, people are always bitching about it. Why don't we start making designer generals that aren't Rick Owens? Could be a certain designer, could be a collection, or it could be just all high fashion discussion in general. This is /fa/ for god's sake, doesn't it make sense?

I'd make one but personally I'm still learning, so I choose not to act informed yet. But I'd definitely lurk in them and ask questions

The problem is that they fulfill either one or both of your criteria for shitty posters, so there's definitely something to complain about. I'm not bitching about all, I'm bitching about some. God forbid /fa/scist ever leaves this place and whatnot.

>>9048102
Well then start a designer general, and open it with a few pics of your favourite pieces and encourage commentary and discussion on the designs and designers. Not all discussion has to be "yes anon I like that too". Some of the best discussion is reasoned disagreement.

I don't mind it if you really, really contribute something to the community, like you have years of experience and good quality info to pass on about the topic of the board and it's handy to identify that person, but otherwise, just no.

pigfuck is the only decent name fag on this board, and that's mostly because of his crusade against the janitor who does his job for free
