An apology.

An apology. | DEAR IMGFLIP:; SOME TIME IN JULY OR MAYBE AUGUST, I WAS A NOOB/NOT GOOD/AWFUL AT DRAWING. WE ALL WERE AT SOME POINT. SO I WENT ONLINE AND GOOGLED "EASY TO DRAW ANIME BOYS." I FOUND THE IMAGE THAT SOME OF YOU KNOW AS "TYLER" IN REALITY, THATS SOMEONE ELSE ART THAT I ATTEMPTED TO RECREATE. AT THE TIME THATS ALL IT WAS MEANT TO BE. NO OC, NO BOOK CHARACTER, NOTHING. JUST A RECREATION. THEN THREE DAYS LATER BECUASE MY DADS GIRL FRIEND WAS SNOOPING THROUGH MY STUFF... SHE CAME ACROSS TYLER AND TESSY (THOUGH AT THE TIME THEY WERE JUST ART RECREATIONS) SHE CAME TO ME AND SAID "WOW MAVRICK, THESE ARE REALLY GOOD." AND I SAID, "YEAH BUT I JUST COPIED THEM." AND THEN SHE SAID, "YOU KNOW WHAT? I WANT YOU TO CREATE A BACKSTORY FOR THESE GUYS! GIVE THEM NAMES, BIRTHDAYS, A LIE, A PAST PRESENT, FUTURE..." SO I DID. AND MY VERY FIRST OC WAS BORN! AT THE TIME I HAD NO IDEA WHAT AN OC WAS. AND ALSO I JUST STARTED DOING IMGFLIP. AND I WAS BROWSING AROUND THE OC STREAM. I ASKED SOMEONE "HEY WHATS AN OC?" AND THEY TOLD ME, "OH IT'S AN ORIGINAL CHARACTER WITH A BACKSTORY AND STUFF" SO FROM THERE I POSTED SOME STUFF. AND THEN I MADE THE RP STREAM. I WAS GOING TO USE MY FAKEMON BUT THEN I DECIDED I SHOULD PROBABLY USE SOME HUMAN LIKE OC'S INSTEAD. AND WHEN PRIMA. LUNI POSTED TMWL IMAGE ON THERE. I DECIDED I WOULD USE TYLER. THEN A DEMON I MADE (YET DIDN'T DRAW YET) NAMED EZRA. THEN TESSY, THEN SO ON AND SO FORTH. ONE DAY WHILE BROWSING THROUGH MY HOUSE. I DISCOVERED A BOOK THAT APPEARED FOR SOME REASON I NEVER KNEW. "MASTERING MANGA, BY MARK CRILEY" AND SINCE I DISCOVERED THAT BOOK I TOOK THAT DRAWING STYLE FOUND IN THE BOOK AND MODIFIED IT AND THEN STARTED DRAWING IN MY OWN STYLE. AND AFTER THAT THE FIRST TWO IMAGES I DREW WERE A NEW TYLER AND A NEW TESSY. YET I STILL LIKED THE OLD ONES BETTER. THEN FAST FORWARD A FEW WEEKS AND I WANTED TO SHARE WITH MY FRIENDS THE ORIGINAL VERSION OF TYLER I BASED MY VERSION OF TYLER ON. YET FOR SOME TWISTED REASON I CHOOSE TO DELETE THE IMAGE I MADE SAYING "HEY GUYS THIS IS THE IMAGE I USED TO INSPIRE TYLER!" AND REPLACED IT WITH AN IMAGE SAYING THAT "HEY GUYS I WAS WORKING ON THIS DRAWING FOR THREE-FOUR MONTHS. A DIGITAL VERSION OF TYLER!" AND THEN THE LIE WAS MADE... AND I FELT LIKE I COULDN'T TAKE IT BACK ONCE I POSTED THE IMAGE... SO I HAD TO CONTINUE THE ACT FOR SOME SELFISH REASON... AND THEN SNOWDAYS CAUGHT ME AND IM APOLOGIZING. I DON'T EXPECT YOU GUYS TO FORGIVE ME OR TALK TO ME BUT IN THE COMMENTS IS WHAT I AM GOING TO DO TO MAKE UP FOR IT. | image tagged in blank white template,apology,not oc,stolen art | made w/ Imgflip meme maker

Also Imma clear some other stuff up:
I did post that image. yet I have a friend that can't get on imgflip, I told them about this incident happening and they sent me a message saying "hey can you make a meme for me real quick?" so I copied and pasted what she wanted me to say onto a black template and then he/she wanted me to continue to tell people I didn't make it. then that image was made saying I submitted it "which I did" yet Im blind and thought that they were referring to me editing the title, so I continued the act.

Here's what Imma do to atone for my Sins:
imma delete my self from mod on the Oc stream.
Stop Following the oc stream.
Delete all post where I used that stolen art.
never post anything on Oc stream again.
And Imma be offline for a little while until hopefully all this hate dies down.
If you guys have anything to say, and it's not hurtful. feel free to post it below.

also if you wanna know who wanted me to make the image... I have no clue whether they will allow me to say or not yet... but as soon as they say I can I will let you all know.

Holy...wow.

Lucario, I really don't think that's fair to you.
At nearly any point in someone's oc creation days, you're bound to find some artwork you really like, some art you really think suits your oc's, and your gonna use it. It happened to me. It happened to my friends. Some people on the stream did that kind of stuff too. But does that mean you should stop making oc's?
NO. Well, not until you grow out of oc creations or something.
We've all f**ked up somewhere, but does that mean we should stop doing something we love? NO. This is the equivalent of a famous chef retiring because he slightly overcooked one little ingredient, or a writer giving up because he wrote a sentence wrong. You have created amazing stories and shown pure f**king dedication to the things you love, you have still preserved a love for writing despite being away from one of the places you can show that love, you tried to keep The Mythic Wasteland alive and you still tried to bring us all back, even when we thought they were good memories of the past. You are one of my best friends on this website, and I don't think my characters would be the same without your input or how your style of writing and you're wonderful af factual side has seriously changed the way I even thought about a character, like how would this, or how would that work? So many things grew because of your determination and ((I've said this three times but still)) damn DEDICATION and LOVE for these things. I don't care if I have to reverse track your image to go to the damn artic to find you, go up to your door, and say "THIS ISN'T YOUR F**KING FAULT," to make you less hard on yourself.
Okay, I guess what I'm trying to say is your an amazing person in this community. You're the Appari of the oc community for crying out loud! The Mat-Pat! ((If Appari was a jackass or something, forget I compared you to him, cause your no jackass.)) A person like you is gonna leave the community because of something you and thousands of people did when they were ten. That's not fair to you, and if I have to go burn in hellfire to prove this to you, then look at me going down from the gate of heaven to the doors of hell. No, seriously, LOOK.
The next time you come online, I just want you to look at this long letter/rant/some third thing. You don't have to tell me what this letter meant to you. I just want you to read it.

I read it... I haven't fully gone offline... not yet anyway
and thanks Luni. I appreciate this It really means Alot... Just I'm not gonna quite making Oc's Imma just quit posting on this stream. Im afraid every time I do someones gonna reply with something like "did you steal this art too" or "hey that's some good tracing you did" or some other BS like that. And It Also means a lot that someone is shedding light to the fact that Im not the only person that does this. And I can't put into words how much all of this means and that you took your time to write out every single word on this. and I really hope that the owner of this stream makes you MOD. And I'll be online if you want me to. just probably won't post any memes for a while. But I'll be fully back soon I hope. I just wanna wait for the hate to die down.
I really appreiciate this (I think I said that already) and I can't tell you how much it means to me (same with that)
I say this a lot but only cause I mean it. Luni... you are one of the best friends a guy like me could wish for. You have done so much for me without asking a single thing in return. anyway... I gotta wrap this up my dad is about to start screen watching me so... yeah.
but thank you.

Thank you, I can't say those words enough to you. Your a good person, whatever you did in the past won't change that.
If you get a hate comment let me know tho so I can practice roasting people online.

((Wait, how do you know I killed people-

Also I have one wish before I leave this stream:
replace me as mod with someone I personally think deserves it. Prima.Luni. since I first joined the Oc stream I loved her pokemon fusion art and her Oc concepts. she is a really good artist and would be an even better mod. thats all I ask of whoever owns this stream :)
Welp... I guess this is good bye
