Animation Source Forums

i agree, it is quite anoying and pointless. there are alot of topics like that and it is soooooooo sickning. like isn't it also kinda hard to make a good reply to two sentences?
and isn't hard for the mod to go two every second topic and post 'more details needed'?
grr... now i'm grumpy.

It really does get on my nerves seeing topics like this.

Trouble is, the only real solution we have is to lock them and we don't really like locking several topics a day and I know Steet doesn't like topic being locked too often either. :/

When it's something like:
"I made a picture [link]
Is it good?"
I tend to get more frustrated.

Okay...I know that sometimes you get a mental block and not really know what to post, especially in relation to a picture or graphic, but would it kill you to wait until you did a picture you were really proud of, explain a little bit about the picture, where your inspiration came from, areas you're not so happy with, ask for people to critique it, is it really that hard?

I agree, a topic needs to at least be a PARAGRAPH. I know sometimes my posts are short, mostly cause I don't know what to say. I personally don't reply to these topics or even continue looking at them, as there just a waist of my time. Maby a rule needs to be placed about this?

I see this all the time but sadly I see it the most in the role-playing section which is like the last place it should be. Some people will just write a one-sentence description or sometimes have none at all. This creates problems(not just for rp'ing) but for regular topics too. It basically leaves it up to the reader to figure out what the heck the topic creator is trying to say and that could lead to potential flame-wars or worse.
