Description
I know I've said it a thousand times and I'll probably say it a thousand times more, but some of you guys are really and truly starting to piss me off.I'm not talking about folks who add like 5 pages per chapter to their faves. I don't care about that.
I care about the people who add EVERY SINGLE FUCKING PAGE.
You guys need to cut it out. I don't post the comic so you can spam me worse than telemarketers. I don't care about your damn +faves and I wish I could disable it, all of you be damned.
So read the freaking tutorial and stop spamming me, goddamn.

I was never sure on how the faving a gallery worked I always held back for I feared it would send over 9000 messages. I look around an artist's gallery for clues so I don't accidently piss off the people I admire. This is helpful ^^ and fears adverted now and the comic folder officially faved.

I'm probably an odd man out when it comes to faves. Most people seem to like them. I hate them. <_<

I can relate. I dealt with something similar on FB and when I posted my screenshots from Bleach I had people liking every single picture. It drove me nuts specially when I am trying to talk to someone and I get my page filled with someone liking every single thing. I pay attention when it is more than just those getting liked. It's when galleries I haven't looked at in a long time suddenly I see "Person has liked photo, person has liked photo." It generates rage and I'm yelling at them in that next minute to quit.
So random likes, faves out of the blue stemming into the hundreds especially if you're following a post can be extremely annoying.

There are 802 comics right now. Each page takes about 3-10 seconds to look at, read and scroll through, and another 2-4 to click on the +fave button and go to the next page. If someone starts faving every page from the beginning, it can literally take them HOURS to get through all of it. I shit you not, if people don't notice me asking them to stop (cuz I tell all of them they can fave the whole gallery at once) then I just ban them outright. Doesn't stop them from reading the thing, but it sure as Hell stops them from spamming me. Serves em right for not thinking about it, or watching their own inbox.

Agreed in full. Because if they're too busy to notice that someone is telling them to knock it off because they're dead set in faving/liking every little detail then they wonder "wtf why am I blocked/banned?" then they really need to be hit upside the head with several... boots steel armor boots!

At least they can still read my snarky messages even after I've banned em lol
"I told you to stop. You didn't listen. You only have yourself to blame." <_<

Apparently, I was the so-called "d-bag" you were so upset about.
I was a new reader that thouroughly enjoyed Bleach REDUX, and would fave every single page because I lved it so much. But then this came along, and I realized that I never knew how much you despised having people fave the comic page by page. This picure here made me feel like a complete idiot, and then I saw this [link] , and it made me feel even worse.
So, I decided to just remove you, and your comic (page by page), from my watch all together. I realized that it just wasn't worth being insulted for enjoying your comic.
If you're so upset about being spammed, then why not just note the person in question about it?
And yes, I was actually offended by this.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Rofl YOU were offended? Look at the fucking timestamp on that image you so arrogantly got upset by (OCTOBER 2012.) If you're one of the LEGIONS of people who have been faving every freaking page one-by-one, then you are, again, only one of many people who have been doing it. You're not a special snowflake just because you're new.
And I do note people about it. I comment on almost every single person's page with detailed instructions on how to add the gallery folder. But recently, several people have so outright IGNORED me that they not only refused to fave the gallery instead, they've actually gone and +faved every page, one-by-one, of the chapter I posted after that.
So by all means. Be a pissy little child about it. But you're not the only one this picture was referring to, and I sure wasn't thinking of your name when I made it.
And the Tale of Spammers? 2007!! Get over yourself.

I respect your thoughts on this, and I won't pick a fight with you. In fact, it was a mistake to even talk to you about this in the first place, and I apologize for it.
If it makes you feel any better, you can just remove the comment I made and we can just forget this ever happened.
Again, I'm sorry for the mistake I made in adding you comic to my favorites page by page.
Hope you have a good day.

Multiple favourites from the same person = spamming now?
Either that or I completely misread what you said.

5 faves isn't spam.
35 faves IS spam.
600+ faves over the course of 4-9 hours makes me want to reach through the screen and strangle someone.

I'm ashamed that some people really do fave EVERY page. O_O I mean, why not just favorite favourite pages or covers. They can do as you say here or like I do. When I want to read, I come to your gallery. Simple. : D
I really feel sorry for you. I'm breaking already when I have more than 30 favourite messages. You have like 300! x_X

I've done that and it keeps on having me to do it over and over for some reason and I don't know why. It is easier that wy so I can just read the comic and not worry on faving it. I have to see why it's not working first. Sorry for the multiple favs from me.

I usually like to fave the covers of the chapter. I hope that is not too annoying? D:

Are you serious right now? Your question is either an attempt to troll me by sarcastically ignoring what I literally just said in my Artist's Comments, or you didn't read it at all. In either case, 1 page vs 35. I'll let you do the math.

Oh.
Sorry.
I swear I wasn't being sarcastic; I forget stuff very easily. Please forgive me.

*Smartass mode initiated* What about the artists who don't have folders for their work? They give you no choice but to fav like that especially if all their work is really good. Lmao just kidding but yeah I can see how that would get annoying and I'm going to be honest I didn't know that you could do that with the folders *still a noob to deviantart kind*. I'll have remember that from now on if I come across any other artists so thanks for the tutorial lmao.

Considering I'm not receiving notices for people +faving other peoples' artwork, I don't really care if other artists don't use folders

Lmao understandable. We all eventually find ways to solve our own problems. Also let me add how much I really enjoy your Bleach Redux. I'm not a huge fan of the series anymore just cause of how downhill it kinda went, but your work on what could've/should've happened is pretty well done. My friend FunSizedMeanie showed it too me a few days ago and I'm really glad she did. Keep up the good work because it's been fun reading it

No problem lol. This might be a stupid question but what gave you the idea to try and make the redux back then?

I was perusing Hulu one day (October 2010, while raiding in World of Warcraft...I needed something to amuse me while we recovered from wipes or whatever) and saw a thumbnail in the Bleach section that showed IchiThing. When I FIRST got into Bleach years back, Ichigo's Hollow form was what drew me in, so here I was again being drawn back by the same thing. This was, of course, halfway through The Lust arc. I had previously stopped caring about the story back when Nnoitra roflstomped Chad, and hadn't seen anything between those two moments...so none of the Ulquiorra/Orihime interactions past the confrontation in the Dangai. When I saw Ulquiorra get beaten, and his efforts to reach out to Orihime in his final moments, I was like "WHAT THE FUCK JUST HAPPENED." I went back and looked over everything I had missed.
And then "RAGE-MODE" activated, cuz the hand-reach thing was so perfect and yet Orihime fucked it all up so bad by not doing anything. This moment, in spite of me not having had any opinion of Ulquiorra whatsoever due to his limited screen-time prior to when I quit, had such an impact on me that I had to figure out what was going on...what had lead up to that moment. After watching more bits of the anime, and reading chunks of the manga, I took it upon myself to change the outcome of that sub-arc. I had done a Hellsing doujinshi years before for similar reasons...so I had some limited experience with doing stuff like this. I just...hadn't drawn anything SINCE that Hellsing doujinshi (2004?) and my art was really, really bad for a long time. I got really angry about it, cuz I had art from my artsy fartsy heyday that was WAY better, and I didn't feel like I was getting back to my old capabilities in any big hurry. My storytelling was also pretty rough and immature. It took 2 attempts at the Redux to finally get the story you see online now. The other two attempts were....really horrific.
/tadaaaaa/

Wow is all I can really say lmao. Now I'm really glad my friend showed me your work because your whole explanation just kinda blew my mind as stupid as it sounds. But your work certainly speaks for itself because you did a damned good job at it. Trial and error is to be expected of course so you really shouldn't fault yourself on that no matter how horrific they might seem. When I first read the Redux I honestly though I was reading something from Kubo himself so major respect to you on that. You portrayed Orihime's personality amazingly with how she's always talking to herself about the things she could improve on and how she's always kind of putting herself down. And Ulquiorra just as well so I've gotta say, you really did your homework so to speak.
On a side note about storytelling and I think you could go way outside the Bleach universe (assuming you haven't already). I've been doing simple journal entries for a story myself that I've been free-writing. No outside workings on it all done on the spot for each entry lmao. In all honesty if I had any kind of drawing talent I'd be trying to do something like what you've done. Mostly because I've seen plenty animes where something SHOULD'VE happened but didn't. But when I say "like what you've done" I mostly mean creating my own scenario and so on not anything copycat related.
Sorry for rambling but when I get such a long and amazing response my "writer attack mode" kicks in lmao

Unfortunately, I don't really read fanfics or even original writings by other folks. I'm honestly not a big fiction fan. Someone would have to be paying me to get me to do it.

I think it's people who are new to reading it, and don't follow you yet so they don't know you don't like it when they favorite every page....
Or is it the same couple of people every time?
That would change things then.....
It still is pretty annoying.

People have blinders. I can't tell you how many times people have bugged me about when the next update is due out when I have it posted in like 4 places. They just don't want to read my comments or something. They only care about the sparkly pictures, like birds.
👍: 0 ⏩: 1
Aye, they could at least skim it with your comments.
I can see why it would get annoying, repeating yourself is the worst.
