bored....
i only write stuff here when i have nothing else to do, or when im waiting for somehting....
Okay, this is a rant on the Avatar Arena… its rigged, it’s a waste of time, and too many stupid people are a part of it… here’s what I mean…

This was my avatar in one of the competitions… i dont have a pic, but friends remember my avatar from a few days ago. the whole thats 70's blue set, the wulf glove/nose/boots, the fox tail/ears, and an ice tiara...

Title: disco fox

Just a random name I thought of, didn’t have much to do with my avatar…

Score: 6.0376

I don’t care if I got a 6, that just means that about 60% of people liked me, which is pretty good.

Total Ratings: 531
Total Comments: 32
Rank: 0

Description: (I couldn’t find it after the contest ended, but basically I sadi was that sets look better than a bunch of random rare items slapped onto an avatar, and that just because it’s a set, doesn’t mean its not original… I also mentioned that I thought my guy was a disco fox cuase that’s what I thought of when I looked at him…)

Comments you received


No here is the part where I get pissed off… each one is unique… so im gonna yell at each one personally…

Unfortunatly you didn't see how the more decent
people here also vote low for people who put on
random sets of donation items. Now this avatar
consists completly of set items , and yes they
match..but that shows ZERO originality. 1/10


First, unfortunately, there are about ten “descent” people actually taking part in the arena. Second, have you ever seen an avatar like mine? NO! if you have, then I would greatly appreciate you showing me. THAT is what originality is, being different from everyone else, not being the same as the person next to you.

Fox McCloud 64
so your saying that becuase i have a set, that
means im not original? well... originality means
that your different... and frankly, i havent seen
anyone else that looks like my guy. THAT is
originality, to look like no one else…


A comment I made about his comment…

Zen_Grl
urm...it looks kind of weird, the red and tthe
blue don't really look good together, srry…


Okay, now this is one of the only bad comment I respect on here, she told me EXACTLY why she didn’t like it, and it wasn’t some BS answer like “sets=no originality… plus, she was kind in the way she said it. These are the comments I like (even though she didn’t like it)

Wolf Lycanthe
It's the disco set with fox stuff thrown on,
nothing original or pleasing to the eye.


How is it just “thrown on” ? I have every fox item in there, if it were just “thrown on”, it would only have one of the items, not 2, 3, 4, or 5... Once again, we go back to the originality issue too… but I wont waste time repeating myself…

Ghost of the Dragon
The red and blue have a good color contrast, but
the hands and the feet blend in too well with the
light blue. The sunglasses seem a bit out of
place, but are okay. I would suggest a dark belt,
but that's just me.


Another comment I liked, not exactly positive or negative, just right in the middle saying good and bad about me. He even gave a nice little suggestion. Thank you.

AquaDragon1984
cute! the tiara is a nice touch


This comment is okay, I wish she would’ve sadi more about what she thought, but very nice.

Lea71Torrie
I like it, cool


Once again, too short, what does he think is cool about it? Needs more of a description, but thanks

winbook
lol 10

Again! Short, doesn’t even say if she thinks its cool, cute, nice, nothing! People, you need to let us understand WHY your giving us the rating you give…

blue] temerity1
retro

Okay… nothing I an say that hasn’t already been said…

AquilaTheEagle161
thank god u have that tiara…

Odd comment… but okay…

jimmyev
some people who get high scores have like 50 items
on, yet you can only see like 10 of them, in my
opinion, he looks just fine, the only things that
i see that could be improved upon are the gloves
that go on his sleavs and the ice tiara, it just
dosn't work if you already have glasses. and
another thing, a black belt would fit. i give it a
nine. (but i put a ten because i'm nice.)


Off the bat, I’d like to let you know, this is a friend of mine whom I asked to vote for me,
BUT, I specifically said for him to be honost… and I don’t think he was… he said about 2 or 3 things that he didn’t like… and he gave me a ten…. This supports something that ill tell you later, just pay attention later on…

Meroko Kurashina
jimmyev- that is so not true Ive seen awesome avis
with only 3 items on it, anyway I think this avi
is ok and it deserves a 7


Shes right, number of items don’t matter, its if they go well together that matters, plenty of people have only a couple items and still look fantastic. a lot of people just add as many items as they can and become cluttered.. Which is not a good look.

Subliminal Advertising
No originality whatsoever. 1.


First, we covered the originality part, and after seeing 2 other people say this, dontcha think I already know people think that? Another thing, why don’t you think its original? Is it because of the sets? Or is it because I look like someone else? I don’t know because you didn’t say why!!!




This is an opinion, I already know some people like it, and apparently, some people don’t, it wasn’t a very negative comment, but he told me what he thought of it…

.hackerelk
you need an afro =)


eek … ooookay… bit of an odd suggestion… but it was a nice comment…


Ooo, my favorite kind of people… stupid people who cant read…

[colo=blue] ipenapen
lol wow...i'm speechles....look at FOX ON LIKE
SUPER SMASH BROS OR SOMETHING.....nothing like him
at all.....no....1

ARE YOU ****ING RETARDED?!?!?! Did I ever say ONCE that I was trying to be fox mccloud from starfox??? NO!!! just because my username is “Fox McCloud 64” doesn’t mean im trying to be him in the arena!!! Just because a girl has the word “sango” in her name, doesn’t mean she has to look like her!!! Stupid people… I hate them sooooooooo much… its because of this guy I decided to add “im not trying to be fox mccloud from starfox” in my description after that

Fox McCloud 64
im not trying to be Fox McCloud, that just my
username!


Had to say that… just in case someone else was stupid enough to… *looks down the page* oh dear… I think we’ll have another one soon…

BillBobJones
OMG you guys are voting againest because you don`t
want him to win because your friend is in the
spotlight! Well this is what orginaltily for
people saying he doesn`t have any orginality! This
is in his veiw! so your saying that becuase i
have a set, that means im not original? well...
originality means that your different... and
frankly, i havent seen anyone else that looks
like my guy. THAT is originality, to look like
no one else... And people sayying no
orginality you guys go in the avi contest! Ok you
have no orginality I think it is really cool! Ok
he wsill smoke any of you guys in a avi contest!
So stfu who are saying this in orginality!


eek …wow…

This is my friend, and he pretty much said exactly what I was thinking… except for the STFU part… but that is what im saying…

usagi427
nice i like it good job with it 10/10


Nice, short, and yet descriptive enough to let me know how she feels about my Avi

bigslip
boring


Yes, your comment is VERY boring… that’s not even a sentence… I don’t like comments like that… now I don’t mind the actual comment that my Avi is boring, but its not enough to go on…

Muffin-Flavored-Cookie
Sorry, but it's not working. Using a bunch of
donation items, doesnt make it a good avatar. The
ice tiara is too much, and the fox/disco mix is
just not good looking. Original, but not very
good.[/blue]

Okay, a good comment, not mean and disrespectful, but she told me that she didn’t like it and why.

Muffin-Flavored-Cookie
2/10.


The point of a comment is to comment… not to give your score…

5onic5in
You messed up Star Fox! YOU SUCK YOU ARE A
DISGRACE TO THE Star Fox RACE!


Its amazing how many stupid people there are… illiterate idiots…

[+Hotaru+]
xD for some reason I find it funny.. O_o;; 9/10


Bit odd, but it’s a good comment…

Cathmore_Ciaran
I liked it your avatars funny and despite the sets
it was still original I doubt I'll ever see
another avvie like yours anywhere else. 10/10


Once again, exactly my thoughts, and she was very nice about it…



confused ….. Can anyone tell me if he liked it or not? I cant tell because he didn’t say anything about my avatar, he didn’t give any comments on it… he’s an idiot! I’m joking, I know he didn’t like it, but he didn’t say why he didn’t or ANYTHING!

jack_shanks
No originality. 1/10


We’ve been through this already 3 times… im tires of idiots who cant read…

Smart_in_lavender_15
out of style


Eh, not bad, but I really wish she would say more…

Pashio
Ewwww....Hate it. I just absolutely positivelyhate
it. The ice tiara, that's a feminine item and
still looks horrendous on the female avatars. The
dog stuff mixed the fox set, I don't like it that
much. And I 'am' going to bother you with the suit
part of it. It looks nothing like disco. I gave
you a reason why I hate your avatar so much, so
please respect that. 1/10


NO! I don’t respect that because you were a B*tch about it, you COULD have said why you don’t like something in a positive manner, but no, you were a rude and disrespectful person about it, so why should I respect you if you don’t respect me? THAT is what burns me here, she asks for my respect after she drug my name through the dirt… these kinds of people don’t deserve to be part of gaia…

Tsuki_Akari92
cool

Short…


darkdragon1528
very retarded!!!!!! who likes the disco ages NOW ?
i mean the outfit is horrible


Once again, disrespectful and rude, could’ve said the exact same thing in a nice way, but no, you had to be rude…


I’m not done yet, that may have been the last comment, but noooo way… I still got more…


Remember jimmyev? The friend who had complaints about my avi and still gave me a ten? Yea, he’s not the only one who does that. I know that most of the people on the arena asked there friends to give them 10s. This is unfair, it just boils down to who has the most friends and luck that few other people vote for them…very few GOOD avatars get very far, while crappy ones go close to the winners circle. I doubt that any of them have actually won, but it just knocks the other good avis down…


I’m also certain that people ask there friend to go around the arena giving people low grades so that it gives there friends a better chance at winning. Alos unfair toy others…

Basically, the arena is a joke and a waste of money… and I have no plans to trying again any time soon…

Ian, the reason I put a ten, may I remind you, is not because i'm your friend but because I am nice. But hey, if you want me to be brutaly honest then i'll tell you what your score would have been. this is without me being blinded by friend ship, or being my usual nice self. you would have goten a 7. the contrast of red fox stuff to blue wolf stuff (at least i think that was it.) didn't work, your color would have to be mixed in some point where the colors are sploched to make like a spot of blue in side your red, also the bright blue with the red from the fox stuff, was a bit too bright, it sort of hurt the eyes, the contrast was too great. the belt was needed to make the contrast lower, you could have lost the ice tiara to make it look a little better becase you already had sunglasses, and a dark colored hat would have worked better. That is the bare truth, I apologize for the bluntness of it, but that is how it gose. you score. 7 out of 10.
