    And apparently they caused trouble at Fanime as well

    Kintoki Con It was due to a staff concern poised at a previous meeting after the exit blocking incident at Fanime

    Blocking an exit at an event filled with thousands of people sounds like a completely valid concern to me
  • you know i think this is a great opportunity to express some

    i dunno anything about this fandom really, so yeah

    Some of the fanart for homestuck is baller but that's all I know
  • I don't have a Facebook, so I can't see that. Also, I really don't get why so many fandoms hate Homestuck.

    Tara Hatchett @Kintoki Con - It didn't come off brunt, it came off ridiculous. As a not only a staff member but an individual representing your organization as a whole, you need to put personal bias aside and focus on what is most important to earning your organization money and to keep it coming.

    Yeah fuck safety issues like Homestuck fans blocking the doors at a convention full of thousands of people, think of the money first
  • compared to bronies homestucks seem pretty nice
  • THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS
    For some cons, the fact that it's not Japanese is a problem; for others, it's fan behavior, as most of Homestuck's fans are teens and college-age (with all the wacky hijinks that would imply).

    And then they all relentlessly dogpiled the single con spokesperson and she's supposed to respond to all this

    classy
  • i guess that would be a concern, but I mean that is just one incident, and as "horrible shit you hear about happening at cons" goes...

    also keep in mind that like apparently this person didn't want homestucks there at all?


    and as the other person points out given terrible thins other fandoms have been responsible for that's kinda hypocritical

    There are much better solutions than banning them.

    I have no idea, but every concern the con spokesperson related there sounded reasonable to me. Mind you, I'm just going from what I'm seeing and reading here

    If I knew a group that had members who created a major safety issue like blocking exits at a very recent previous con, I'd probably do the same thing and then just deal with the whiny backlash.

    Then why couldn't they just have stricter rules about where people could go in the con? I mean, singling out one group is just silly.
  • What bugs me about this is that when any other fandom does stuff like this the response is "Wow, some of the people in that fandom suck." whereas with Homestuck it's "Wow, that fandom sucks."

    Like I said, I don't know, I'm just going by what I'm reading here. Very recently at another convention it was Homestuck fans/cosplayers/whatever who caused a major safety concern and speaking for myself, if I was responsible for the safety of hundreds to thousands of guests at a convention, I'd probably do the same. At the very worst I'd get a bunch of people mad at me on the internet, unlike if disaster struck at my con and those boneheads were pulling the same stupid stunt again and people got hurt or worse
  • But it's not Homestuck fans who were doing that, it was a group of stupid people. Trust me, this is the kind of thing people only do to Homestuck fans. It's been going on for a while.

    Well like I said I don't know, I'm just going from the information presented in this facebook thread here and they're reporting that it was Homestuck fans and cosplayers pulling this stunt


  • Right, I was just letting you know.
  • And here I was expecting that a big update had happened, and everybody was discussing it. But no, it's just internet drama.

    It's kind of fascinating, really. Watching a flame war against someone (or multiple people) trying to representing a company (badly). The Kinoti-Con Account is so calm when compared to the fans. Not calm in a good way. Calm in a 'you're in an internet argument; show some backbone already' way.

    And then there's this comment:
    Kinoti-Con: we have already had a talk with those that lead the brony fandom

    Since when do fandoms have leaders? Are fandom's actual cults now instead of just virtual cults? Do the brony leaders hold meetings with the brony fandom on Tuesdays and Fridays?

    Yarrun, I nominate you to be the undisputed leader of the 11.975MHz fandom

    Sugar,

    These were the ingredients chosen
    To create the perfect Canon Characters
    But Andrew Hussie accidentally (not)
    Added an extra ingredient to the concoction—
    Cherub juju

    BLAP, HUNKy dory, BOMP.

    Thus, The Tricksters were born!
    Using their ultra-super powers
    Jane, Roxy, and Jake
    Have dedicated their lives to getting married
    And having a zillion of babies!

    That last line makes them sound like the New Guardians...:lol:

    Jane licked the juju 1 time

    and turned into a Trickster

    image

    we helped Jane collect 10 “clues”

    image

    upon the 11th “clue”, Jake became a Trickster

    image

    we then helped Jake tug 110 times

    image

    with the 111th tug, Roxy is now a Trickster

    image

    if the pattern continues,

    we will help Roxy turn Dirk into a Trickster by doing something 1,111 times

    ugh that's gonna suck

    apology!
  • Am I the only one who feels sorry for Gamzee?
  • THIS MACHINE KILLS FASCISTS
    Also, if they're getting drunk...well, remember what alcohol does in Problem Sleuth
  • I mean, judging by what Caliborn said he wasn't in control of what he was doing at the time.

    But all of the trolls hate him anyway.
  • really i just really never liked gamzee as a character at all


    i also didn't like tavros all that much for some reason until fairly late in the comic
  • also is this the first actual confirmation of solfef?
  • fefeta u cutie

    Come on! He's murdered a couple of characters and worships plus is actively helping an extremely evil entity that has itself murdered characters as well as murdered many, many ghosts.

    Having to watch Trickster mode shenanigans first hand isn't much of a comeuppance. 

    I guess he's been maimed, but again, we're dealing with a murder who is aiding a worse murderer.


    What line are you getting the "wasn't in control of what he was doing at the time" thing anyhow?
  • imagei will watch the heck outta this pumpkin patch
    i kind of felt sorry for him when he was getting shot, but not otherwise.

    i feel much more sorry for Erisolsprite during the trickster mode shenanigans

    although Eridan is also a murderer

    but still

    At least Eridan is a repentant murderer at this point. 

    Gamzee has yet to show any remorse.

    Also, Sollux hasn't done anything especially bad.

    At least under his own volition.
  • and fefetasprite did seem to kinda accept his apology?
