Sorry to the normal people that follow me by altyridae

#Toby x #Genji
I respect the fact that you dont want to escalate or cause drama and made an effort to handle things maturely. However, there are still a bunch of things that have gone unaddressed that I think are worth mentioning. First, I'd like to say that there's nothing wrong with shipping a gay ship or having fetishes. I never said anything like that. It's just that I don't think Colors, a game whose target demographic is children, is the right place to express those less-than-sfw feelings.

I also saw that you adressed your portrayal of trans Toby and are working to make your design more accurate, but I don't think that's a problem. The real problem is the constant fetishization of transgender people. I know that a lot of transmasc people are uncomfortable with their AFAB body parts and prefer to avoid bringing attention to those aspects of themselves. That being said, it makes a lot of transgender people uncomfortable with the idea of their bodies being s3xualixed.

I understand making art and consuming media to cope with mental illness/insecurities. I'm curvy too, and there's nothing wrong with that. I know what it's like to take pills and feel disgusting about your body and coping mechanisms, but as I said before, I don't think such feelings should be expressed so vividly on ColorsLive (the kids game !).

I know that you need to be 13+ to use Colors online, but it should be obvious to everyone how many 12 and under users are slipping through the cracks and crawling around in Colors' coding. I've seen posts on here that look like they were written by an 8 year old child, and I don't know about you guys, but I don't think that children should have to deal with the stress of trying to keep their online friends alive and sane.

I too, was a little kid crawling through the coding of websites and apps where I didn't belong, and it gave me some serious problems growing up. I'm not trying to make you feel bad or guilt you into agreeing with me (unlike some people); I'm only trying to further prove my point and say that if you are going to post about sensitive and unsafe subjects (on a kids game), you should at least mark it with a warning or use the NSFW filter

I'm not saying that you aren't allowed to vent your feelings to your friends, but instead of posting about it on ColorsLive, you should talk to family and friends (with permisson!) privately. If Colors is your only emotional outlet, then feel free to share your feelings on here! I just heavily reccomend that for the safety of others (and yourself), that you post vents and things like that on a separate account.

Another thing that I've seen other people mention is the fact that Animal Crossing villagers have no confirmed ages. I have no problem with people making ship art of AC characters as long as they view them and treat them like adults.

I do find it a little weird, however, that you claim to not s3xualize children but have also posted about your OC (who is a child!) reading a "juicy smut fic" while bleeding from her nose.

Saying that she "discovers things FAR too early-" is definitely a little offputting, especially because she is reading a smut fic with a nosebleed (a common way to portray arousal in many anime/mangas).

I feel the same way

One thing that I find suspicious is the number of friends from other platforms/real life that you've brought to Colors that seem to have artstyles very similar to your own. I know that I can't be the only one that's noticed how whenever people "attack" you, all of your friends with varying backgrounds and identities seem to come to your aid within a singular nanoangstrom of you discovering any posts/comments that call you out or "attack" you.

I'm not trying to hurt your feelings or "degrade" you. This isn't a direct callout post; not once did I mention your name, but as you can tell by the comments, everyone knows who I'm talking about, even when there are so many things that were left unsaid. I'm not trying to encourage you to quit or hurt yourself, but I think it's important for me to express my opinion and thoughts when I know so many people that feel the same way as me are too afraid to do so with posts of their own.

oh SHOOT how did i miss them saying "shes reading something far too silly" i thought that saying "she learns things far too early" fit the character (mostly because they're not going to far with it like her reading a "smütific fanfic" or something) and sorry im genuinely tryna use neo/they them i keep on forgetting

There is an NSFW tag for a reason , and they use it . If a kid stumbled upon there work that isn't there fault or responsibility , its the parents . There's literally a community of people on here who post only nsfw and that's fine . Read the guidelines . There art is obviously very self indulgent , they aren't making it for you and in general you're not gonna like everything you see . Let people express themselves and there work .

I also have to ask though , what was the purpose of this post ? You said all of this in your last one ? Are you trying to make all of Colors aware of it , cuz that seems kinda counterproductive to your first problem . This will only spark the curiosity of children with NSFW filter on imo .
I feel like if you genuinely wanted to critique and help them be better you'd go to one of there post and talk to them or if you're afraid of there fans @ them on one of your posts and discuss it . These types of posts just seem very toxic and bandwagon-y , they don't do nothin but create unnecessary tension and drama , like just talk to them .

Sèxüaļising minors is still a bad thing, though, even if it does get put on nsfw, thats..like.. morally wrong and seems a bit pèdø-ish, you can still support poko and stuff, its just i don't really like them.
Please don't start drama with me, i'd appreciate it.

@SaltineCracker While I agree that some things about my post are a little hypocritical, I think that it's still important for me to express my opinion (as I said before) because so many people are trying not to upset their fan army. I also find it interesting that when people try to defend them they always seem to miss the more important issues, like the public fetishization of transmasc people or the s3xualization of their minor OC.
