In This context, it’s sort of calling out someone who already called another oc shit. What goes around comes around. Regardless, that’s not very relevant. Don’t be a dickhead, it’s that simple.

Ok dude, end of story, you don’t have to go out of your way to tell people their oc sucks, regardless of how true it is. That’s on par with claiming you have to go out of your way to tell someone irl that they’re ugly. or that their clothes are hideous. You don’t have to do it. You don’t have an obligation to do it. Leave it to their friends, or people they know. A total stranger on the internet does not have the right to tell someone that their oc is bad. You are an asshole if you do, and an even bigger asshole if you believe you “have to”. Stop fighting this already, you’re only making a joke out of yourself.

Yes but you don’t have to go out of your way to tell someone, as I’ve repeatedly said to Seiken. You have the option to stay silent. My issue and what I’ve repeatedly told him is such, is that he says you HAVE to tell them their OC is bad.
Few things:
>Yes, there are shit OCs. These can vary. Overly simplistic, low effort OCs (OPs) can be just as bad as extremely try-hard, excessively designed ones. (The ones OP is mocking).
>Nobody has an obligation to ‘break the news’ to anybody else about the quality of their OCs, but they have every right to do so.
>You probably shouldn’t be emotionally damaged if someone insults your ponymaker OC that you made in a couple hours or less.
>You can critique someone’s OC in a helpful way that doesn’t make you come across like a prick. You don’t HAVE to, this is the internet, but usually people are more receptive to negative feedback if it’s expressed in this manner.
>This is very likely a troll image that doesn’t warrant this level of discussion
This. You don’t NEED to go out of your way to tell someone their OC is bad. You have the CHOICE to be quiet, and if you’re literally going out of your way to tell people their OC’s are shit, then you’re kinda an asshole, because it means you’re going out of your way to hurt their feelings.

Seiken is right, there are bad OCs. Period. Sorry, if that hurts, but that’s what is truth often does.

Because i consider it more unkind to leave people under false assumptions than to tell them the truth even if it smarts. And your issue is that you cannot accept another person’s viewpoint.

And yet there is no reason to comment at all, so why go out of your way to tell them a truth that hurts, when you can simply move on and say nothing?
Clearly you’re not considering them.
I’m done, though. It’s clear you’re either stupid, or unable to consider people’s feelings, and I’m just talking at a brick wall.

The only one misguided here is you. I’m frankly in disbelief that you think it’s okay to go out of your way to make other people feel like shit. Maybe you should get some professional help, or go to some classes or something, because clearly you’re unable to consider other people’s emotions. Psychopath, maybe? Emotionally detached and/or unable to consider other people’s feelings.

You’re taking that out of the context of the paragraph. I mean Feedback is just feedback in the sense that it’s not constructive or destructive, unless it is constructive or destructive feedback like the examples I gave.
Words cut more than swords, my dude. Your words effect how others feel. The fact that you can’t see that, the fact that you’re going out of your way to cut people with your words by telling them their OC’s are shit…
You’re a terrible person.

No, noone has to. It’s honestly sad you think that people HAVE to go out of their way to tell other people that their creations are shit. You say “no one has to care about the emotional investment if another person”, well then why does anyone have to care whether or not an OC is good or bad? Your argument is invalid.
Of course people are going to be more receptive to positive feedback than negative feedback, even if the feedback amounts to two words. That’s because one is positive and one is negative. But that doesn’t make “fantastic oc” constructive feedback, but neither is it destructive. Constructive feedback tells you the why, destructive feedback tells you that everything you’ve done is wrong, but not why. Feedback by itself is just that, feedback.
I say it once I say it again, your stance that people have an obligation to tell others that their OC is shit, just makes you shit. Ever heard of “If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all?”

Yes someone has to. No one has to care about the emotional investment of another person. And on the topic of constructive criticism, saying “shit oc” is on the same level as “fantastic oc”. Both have the same level of little to no constructive value and yet people always throw a tantrum about not being constructive when its negative.

Giving criticism is one thing, outright saying “Shit OC” is another. I say the same thing on comments on stories. There’s constructive criticism, and then there’s destructive criticism. Difference between saying “a bit of advice to help you improve upon this is to try doing this instead of that” and saying “omfg you’re so bad”.
When it comes to OC’s, there’s far more emotional investment and you have to be far more careful about what criticism you give, and generally that criticism will come from friends, not total strangers, unless asked for. So no, noone “has to break the news”. Frankly, if you go around judging other people’s OC’s and/or telling people their OC’s are bad or shit, you’re just an asshole.
