Overboard

yeah, right now it does feel like the newfags are just attempting to imitate soyculture, but have 0 understanding of it. Perhaps as an attempt of reliving the old sharty, because they missed out. This can also be seen here, where people are too attached to the pilot for them to be able to expand the culture. There's just a very weird concept of infallible strict canons of what is "sharty/zarty/whateverarty culture" that started to take off during Doll.

no imageboard is immune to this (even the zarty). Its just that they way these types of site are structured, they cannot provide long term stability to a community, especially now. Its too easy to manipulate the crowd (it only takes a few individuals to act as a big majority) or to replace it (no way to control mass migrations or to notice them in time). 4chan is the logical conclusion of such sites, where it ends up being a massive psyop.

I just dont see a solution to the current problems for now.

Moderation can do so much. Its basically a handicapped position of power (some core concepts of "ib anonymity" do more harm than good to the moderation capabilities AND the anonymity of the users ironically) that needs to do CIA levels of tracking sometimes (basically they need to be autistic and live on the zarty 24/7) for 0.00 zimbabwean dollars per hour (all they get is a middle finger sometimes). Not that you dont have to deal with bs on non IB sites, but here it can get too retarded sometimes.

The core zaryan population has already been mostly replaced and the current site is different from what it was back in 2023 demographic wise (a ship of theseus, the difference being that the crew and passengers has been replaced, not the parts of the ship). The second booru drama is a good example of "core value" change.

Also the mods are not immune to replacement. People come and go there as well (if they think that the userbase is no longer relatable, they go). And the administration is reliant on the current userbase for potential candidates. The admin himself can decide that he had enough and his options are either to shut down the site (which means anybody can make a spiritual successor) or give it to anybody who is willing to pay money for the servers (which isnt that different from the first option, it just means that the admin can pick the "best option out there", so basically yet another russian roulette).

one time when i was drawing faces, i found a literal la ogre laughing. it was a pretty funny pic.

personally i dont mind the fat guys, since you get to also practice fat on muscle and skin. And i never enable the non-binary option, since the models are just... yeah. Its a nonsensical option for goofy ahh niggas.

there are other sites for drawing models (some only provide fully naked models, which i dont personally like) and ig you could also use image results of your preferred search engine. All you need is to practice flow (quick sketching a few lines to capture the essence of the pose) so go nutz.
