IM GONNA USE THIS AMAZING DRAWING FOR ALL MY RANTS. DEAL WIT IT.

OH Hallo der! This is a rant about the state of newbs and noobs on pmc, and the level system..

If you go and glance at the new skins, you see mostly not shaded skins that took no effort,stolen skins,mob/steve skins, and more. But scattered among those, are actually some good skins, not made by the well known skin creators. These skins however,usually are not paid attention to,and have almost no diamonds,views,or downloads. These people worked hard on these skins, and what do they get? NOTHING. ABSOLUTLEY NOTHING. All the crap skins hide these works of art from view.

Somepeople don't pay attention to the skins or submissions that are good, because they are made by low-level people. The level system i like in some parts, but it has become a way to discriminate against other pmc users. If your low level? Prepare to be ignored by the majority of PMC. When i started making skins, they were pretty bad at first, but i got better. I would get a diamond here and there, but it took over 70 submissions to get to level 10. Thats a little off topic tho.

Most people when they see a low level person,expessialy with no avatar, quickly dismiss them as noobs with no skill, and as clueless. They can be clueless. They just joined pmc, and probably have no idea whats going on. Its our job to help them if they mess up or make a mistake, not capslock them, insult them, and say they "are such idiots you make pmc horrible."

According to UrbanDictionary:

Contrary to the belief of many, a noob/n00b and a newbie/newb are not the same thing. Newbs are those who are new to some task* and are very beginner at it, possibly a little overconfident about it, but they are willing to learn and fix their errors to move out of that stage. n00bs, on the other hand, know little and have no will to learn any more. They expect people to do the work for them and then expect to get praised about it, and make up a unique species of their own.

This is completley true. So stop hating on newbies, give them a chance, and help them get used to PMC. The amount of n00bs on pmc has slapped the sterotype of all newbies being idiots,n00bs,and dumb on the sholders of every and all newbie on pmc. Be nice to them for a change, and respect their opinions and stuff. If they have good skins or blogs, diamond it! When i was a newbie, whenever i got a diamond or a comment saying good job, it made my day. So stop being rude. This is all.

This is so scattered compared to my other blogs. Sowwy. :( Diamond if you like!

I had a player tell me that everything I made was crap, all because I didnt like their flat map. This person was above level 50 and started by telling me they hated people that made assumptions, then proceeded to deliver me at least 5 rants to my inbox about how stupid I was with a bunch of assumptions about me being a fat no life gay kid tossed in. I recently pointed out to that person that their flat map is against submission rules. I have yet to hear back.

I hate when people make a skin, then change the secondary color of it, and then post it again. I look at their recent submissions and I see this "Red endermen ninja" "blue endermen ninja" "orange endermen ninja" etc. All this does is spam up the (already crowded) section, and cause me to rage.

I never even thought of discriminating people due to their levels. I'm usually too lazy to look at it. I look at all skins with no bias, and I often wonder, WTF ARE THERE 10 SKINS THAT LOOK EXACTLY THE SAME EXCEPT FOR ONE PIXEL. Btw it's kinda weird because everyone was a newb............ And sometimes, I admit I discriminate people when they have no icon pictures. I go up to them as say: WHY YOU HAVE NO ICON PICTURE, WANT ME TO MAKE ONE????????????? NO< WELL I"LL MAKE ONE ANYWAYS D:<

if I see someone that's level 10 with no icon picture, I usually think they cheated to get that exp, use PMC only as a substitution to mediafire or something, or they just like that icon XD

I agree that it is hard to first get noticed on planet minecraft. To help, I always diamond skins which I think have been well made, even if a newbie made them. I also try hard to get rid of stolen skins. If you want to help, just flag any stolen skins you find, and the good skins will be give room to show off :)
