@wardrich: Your post made me think a lot, maybe I came across this website way too late, I couldn't experience what sounds as "the golden age of canvas". Is the situation THAT bad? I feel like I've totally missed the good times...
Too many feels -

(srry in advance for wall of text)
i came here cuz my bf told me about it (he posted only anon and left when update happened)
i got addicted to the stickers pretty much within a week
also the drawing challenges
over time i got to kno the community better and i was really impressed at the variety of users and the general friendliness toward eachother.
its really awesome to be able to collaborate with ppl who arent all necessarily artists (as it is on other art sites like da).
imo what sets canv.as apart is that the users are more concerned with fun and being creative than seeing technical ability and building a fanbase.
this is y drawfriends is so fucking awesome and also the reason i do request threads exclusively on canv.as (id rather not get 30+ requests of pretty much only sonic ocs)
ive been on deviantart for 8 years (since i was about 16) and while there are a bunch of talented artists to follow i have never felt like i had a place within the community (ppl there get butthurt pretty easily...)
i have a tumblr too, but the userbase annoys me the same as da (its all very exclusive and clicky)...
at least i quit facebook tho cuz srsly fuck facebook (studies show it legit makes ppl upset when using it)
anyway canv.as 4 life u guys are awesome
((still no computer so i made a shitty trackpad drawing to show im still thinking of u guys))× -
@Fluffers: That's what I was thinking; Golden age? What "Golden age?" I got my invitation and set up the Rev. To me, it was a joke. I didn't think it would last. But, look at us silly fools now.

@0xFF: You know, I really thought the way you did way back. I felt the need to break the rules or test the boundaries, didn't really understand Canvas and their perception of clean fun but I soon realized something. You can go anywhere and act like an asshole, call people names, post inappropriate pictures but there are few to none places where I can just have a clean viewing of the internet. I come here just to be creative and that's all I want to do. What's the point of fighting the fundamental of the site? It's tiring to say the least and you get no where doing it. If I want to be a cyber street urchin I go to 4chan (which I still love and always will) but here, I can just be nice and it's a nice change. I do get tired of the mild squabbles among users (which you'll never escape, it's the internet) but all in all I like the wholesomeness of the site and learned to respect it. Not to say you have to, do as you will. I'm just posting my experience with the site.

@Heji: What's the point of fighting the fundamental of the site?
>implying trolling isn't a art -
To earn stickers I:
1.) Troll as anon
2.) Make maymays
3.) Overuse stamps
I also make threads for my weekly podcast #NSFWradio and that is about entertaining you, the stickers are just a bonus. -
@Acidsmooth: You selfishly enjoy yourself without any regard to anyone but the intended victims and your self? How dare you instigate such a fellowships of amusement. You've done and gone liking things others don't like. You better stop it, otherwise you're going to need this ...

i am here for the soulmates and the insanity. and I DO NOT NEED THE PERFECT COMMUNITY.
Or in Nietzsche's mind: perfection is death. everything that is perfect is dead because it shouldn't change. canvas is close to the maximum of imperfection.
I think this means NO RULES APPLY ...at least they don't for long because the imperfection changes everything.
I strongly support imperfection ...this is my 4th or 5th account....too many stickers and I am off.
