Hey guys, yes you've read the title correctly, I'm leaving the FC/OC & VSbattles. This is a decision I've been thinking about for weeks, months and heck maybe even a year? I think I've come to the conclusion now that I want to leave.
I don't enjoy vsdebating as much anymore
I've been on this wiki since early 2017, I feel like I've just gotten bored of it by now and unlike back then, I don't know why but to me it all feels like more of a chore rather than fun nowadays. Like having to constantly go back and change something or even worse having to wait so people don't think I'm only changing it just so that I can win a match. Or what about having to read a wall of text powers/abilities section just so that I can make a thread? Whenever I make a match I feel more pressure rather than fun and enjoyment nowadays.
The struggle to find matches
If your character is too OP/not OP enough then you struggle to find matches. What makes it more difficult is that people are less likely to respond to matches against characters on VSbattles and more likely to respond to matches against characters on FCOC which not only has less pages but also chances are the writers of said FC/OC aren't even active anymore.
Everything feels so competitive
I feel like this is because the FCOC is not just a writing site but also a vsdebating site. Like when I meet friends outside vsdebating (which takes up like most of my friends in general) they would only give their OCs like 3-1 different powers and sometimes they only come from their own weapons. On here however it's "woahhh outerversal hax and wall of text" (although saying that about walls of text might make me a hypocrite considering Animazians Terminology but even then I try to make it as simple as possible). Also I have nothing against people making OP characters or giving them wall of text powers/abilities, you write your stories however you want to.
University
I’m in University now, I’ve moved out of my home, three years from now I'll be done with it which by then I'll probably have to go get a job and stuff. I don't want FC/OC to distract me too much either.
VSdebating’s influence on writing/fiction for me
It’s quite long so I decided to put it all here on a Google Doc instead.

It's been a good nearly five years as hard as it maybe for me to believe and I think my time has finally come. Thanks to all the great people I've met here.

- Instagram: This is where I share my artwork. I am willing to communicate with anyone on there.
- Blogspot: Might make a personal art blog one day. Will post an update on this via a comment on this thread.
- YouTube: Only use it for catching up with my favourite YouTubers, liking and (on rare occasions) uploading videos. Might start making videos eventually, but right now I only use it to like videos and catch up with my favourite YouTubers because YouTube comments sections are pretty toxic.
- Discord: I don’t feel comfortable sharing my Discord here and will only give it out to someone in private messages whenever I feel comfortable doing it so please don’t ask for it.
