Why is no one interested in any of my OCs?

[Shugunou]

I was told that people would be interested in my weaker OCs so I posted them and it's been days with no interaction. For reference, when I posted about my manga, I got replies within a day, even if they weren't positive. But people don't even have anything negative to say about the OCs I posted. I wasn't going to post them before but people assured me that I'd get people interested in them if I posted them and I believed it. I'm starting to assume that was a lie and that no one actually cares about them. At this point, I'd rather be insulted than ignored.
Edit: Apparently they were all locked. I'd like an explanation as to why.

You don't need to spam threads when it's pretty much the same thing, you can compile them in one

Nobody hates you just because your manga has it's issues, it'd be ridiculous to hold a grudge for that, but i think people are under the impression (including myself) that you won't take any nitpicks lightly, especially after... that thread. Which is not what a successful writer does.

The reaction to someone saying anything even slightly negative about your manga was blown way out of proportion back there. Nobody has anything against you personally. They just dislike how you're seemingly unable to handle any criticism at all and how you went after a mod for something as small as that too. You only take that as 'insulting' because people are being honest with you about how all this powerscaling stuff is kinda sorta really bad for it. They are telling you how to improve it, but you wound up escalating it way too much with that thread from a couple days ago.

That's not a good reason to lock the posts. They still take up the same amount of room whether locked or not. It would make more sense to delete them if that were the problem. I also didn't know that was a problem. And just because most of them were Undertale-related, doesn't mean they are "pretty much the same thing" (and Marvel and Sword Gai are also completely unrelated to Undertale). I was told not to spam posts after I posted them already and I didn't know I was spamming at the time. I'd happily make it so I only post one OC a day from now on but now that they are all locked, I'd have to repost all of them and that will take a while and might get me banned. This was the worst way they could've possibly dealt with it. And that's assuming that is the reason they were locked. I wasn't given a reason by the mods so it could easily be that they hate me and don't want me getting engagement.

Well, you can ask council about that one, cause i'm not a mod here

Also this is, like, at least 10 whole threads as far as i remember. But that's a bit too much undertale tbf lol

I've been in the Undertale AU community since 2020. It's only natural that I'd have a bunch of Undertale AUs. I posted only a fraction of them. Just the ones that would be easy enough to scale.

 

[Rayfire]

...Yes, you were. Council told you to not spam so many threads on your profile wall, and you acknowledged that with "sorry"

If you wanna do that nobody's stopping you, just much better to do it in one thread

 

[Ebihara]

you should make full profiles rather then walls of text attempting to explain the who character is.

I don't know how a character can be scaled without knowledge of the character.

 

[Rayfire]

True Dust is LV2147483648 (After killing DustDust, his LV became the combined LV he had at the start of Hotlands plus LV20) which is 1 more than the integer limit. True Dust has successfully broken reality to get LV beyond what should be possible. This also makes his HP 8589934592. His AT is 17179869182. His DF is 536870911.75.

Also, this sounds so absurdly broken for a "weaker" undertale oc, i dunno much about undertale but i think something like being comparable to asriel would be enough if i wanted a strong undertale FC

I think this also contributed, just hard to comment on

They didn't say that was why they locked it. They didn't even tell me they locked it.

 

[Kellex]

AFAIK threads can't be deleted as they can only be created, edited, locked and unlocked. I never figured out why tho.

I'd have to repost all of them and that will take a while and might get me banned.

An FC/OC mod has already said it on your profile that you can talk about your OCs in a single thread, so I'd take their word and do that instead of making multiple threads. However this still doesn't mean you can spam in a single thread as there are rules for it, but it would still be better if you slow down a bit so we can actually digest the information of the OCs you're showing.

I posted a mix of OCs. I just figured my take on True Dust was one of the more interesting Undertale OCs I made and posted it too.

 

[VeneficaAuthor]

Just make a discussion thread that encompasses all of your characters like how there are discussion threads for verses as a whole. This way you can have what you want without breaking the rule of no spamming the forum.

My personal opinion though, people are going to be averse to interacting with you at all when your reputation consists of threads such as this and this.

It's a lot of text to put them all in one thread though. That's the main reason I didn't do it. People wouldn't want to read that much text.

Then give me another wiki I can go to where I can start over. The only positive thing about VSBW I can say is that its profiles are usually accurate. The community here sucks and the rules here suck as well.

I don't want to start anything but you're just overreacting dude

 

[Shugunou]

I'm not overreacting. Everyone has been trying to cause me emotional pain since I posted my first OC here. But at this point, I don't even know if it's because of the OCs or arguments. It's likely that y'all saw my profile pic and immediately considered me less than human. You already know I am emotionally unstable. I mentioned that very early on.

This all started when vene gave you some criticism about your manga and you took it way too personally. The only reason it got blown out of proportion is because you reacted so negatively to literally anything anyone said. Of course you think people hate you if you interpret everything that way

 

[Rayfire]

I'm gonna disengage from this for obvious reasons, but like, dude, turn off the computer, step outside, and calm down. People telling you the problems with your manga is NOT that deep.

Why are you still here?

Like, for one thing, no I do not care that you are a furry, it does not even actively register because I'm not in fact a bigot. But if you're this sold on the idea that I and every other person in this community is, you do realize there's a whole big world out there, right? It's not like a hobby site is going to get you college credits or whatever else you may need to move your standing, if it's not fun, hit the bricks.

I'm only still here because I don't know where else to go. I want another wiki to go to but I don't know which ones have accurate profiles and which ones don't.

Because powerwank isn't good for writing either Terminology like "being beyond omnipotence" doesn't sit well with anyone. I wasn't attacking you at all, most of my reply was literally just giving my take on something you said like with the plot armor thing

Calling it the definition of powerwank is the same as saying I was wanking the character which is an attack on me.

 

[Ebihara]

you scale them by making the profile. I dont see how making a random thread is going to scale them.

 

[Rayfire]

It would be attacking you if i said "You're f**ked up because your character is unnecessarily overpowered" but i clearly didn't. This is literally what overreacting is dude

but like, dude, turn off the computer, step outside, and calm down.

If you truly cared about me, you would be giving me suggestions for a wiki to move to but you won't because you can't hurt me if I leave.

I already scaled them with my own system but I was under the impression that I was supposed to let other people scale them for me.

Next time don’t try to ‘write’ a thing that attempts to encompass everyone else’s works.

And listen to Rayfire. You really need it.

If you truly cared about me, you would be giving me suggestions for a wiki to move to but you won't because you can't hurt me if I leave.

Are you insane?

You seem to really wanna get out of here, so literally just go. Search up on google for another wiki.

Why are you waiting for us to give you another option if you want to leave so badly?

 

[Rayfire]

bro there's a million other wiki's to go to, i don't need to give you a link to them, it's a simple as looking up 'powerscaling fandoms/wiki's'

also, there's a bunch of others telling you to skedaddle if you take everything we say personally anyway, i don't need to repeat what they've said

How am I supposed to figure out if a wiki is accurate? Do I have to compare every profile on every wiki to the ones of VSBW?

 

[Ebihara]

people have tried to help you by pointing you to the proper resources to research this very topic even though its beyond rude to go to a wiki and just constantly ask how you can leave and make another wiki, have some perspective. You throw around heavy accusations like people hate you and are hurting you when you are just straight up rude and ignore everything everyone says. I give up you clearly don't want help but just act like a victim.

No wiki is completely accurate, powerscalers aren't material scientists or mathematicians

I don't want to go to a wiki that says Goku is outerversal or that Saitama is Boundless. I want a wiki that makes accurate profiles. But there is no feasible way for me to test that.

 

[DMUA]

There is no such thing as a wiki with "Accurate" profiles. Fiction is heavily interpretive even down to the numbers. You could say our pages on Spider-Man are inaccurate because there's a genuine mandate by Marvel for how powerful he's supposed to be in adaptions (see page 13) and our profiles exceed that margin (because their feats shoot past these parameters all the time), or you can be completely fine with All Fiction Battles saying that Quinella is High Hyperverse level because the cardinal system operates by cardinal numbers, and mostly stuff in-between.

Why does it matter if you don't think one thing is accurate? You know everything about your own characters, so wherever you scale them to, it's completely accurate from your perspective.

 

[Shugunou]

So should I just use a random number generator to pick one and hope they know what they are doing?

Because I want to contribute to the profiles of other characters too.

Alright fine. What is a wiki that scales characters similarly to VSBW but isn't full of assholes?

 

[Rayfire]

You say that like vsbattles is accurate most of the time, a lot of people think it isn't online and there's a lot of ratings i don't agree with there
