| - A few of us were discussing this in chat, and it could be really beneficial to close down the tweak/nomination pages for awhile, once the current tweaks and nominations are out of the way. The project is going overboard with this whole realism thing- to the point where its making members leave. This pickyness is getting out of control- I honestly believe closing down these pages for awhile will give everyone a chance to chill out and realize that the goal of the project isnt to be hyper-realistic, or to nominate images for redos just to have a cat to work on. We'll have a bunch of new cats to work on in September, so this could help ease the tension between users. 00:26, August 12, 2015 (UTC) No complaints from me, and I was one of the ones supporting it. The only tweaks that should probably be done are torn ears, or additions to descriptions due to author comments, cites in books, ect. Aka, something that's actually important. I was the one who brought this up, so I'm fine with it. 00:38, August 12, 2015 (UTC) PCA is usually always a bundle of drama. It comes with the territory. If we closed certain aspects of the wiki every time opinions conflict, we wouldn't have an improving wiki. 00:46, August 12, 2015 (UTC) It honestly doesn't matter to me, but I just wanna point out that this has been an 'issue' for 3 years. There have been countless discussions and arguments about realism and stuff of that nature and nothing has changed. I don't really think you can do anything to stop stuff like this. Do I think people go overboard? Yes, and I have been thinking that since 2012. It's just really hard to tell people to not redo this, and not tweak that, because when it comes down to it: it's a vote. Some people will say it's fine, while others will agree. I am personally beyond pleased with all the art on this website. Will people find flaws in them? Of course. Will a lot of them be redone in the near future? Obviously, and there's nothing you can really say or do to prevent that from happening. "Realism" has been an ongoing issue, and you either realize that it's going on, or you don't. So, yeah, I do believe some images are redone for trivial matters. Close the tweak page if necessary, but all I'm saying is that temporarily closing tweaks will only prevent the redoing of more images and arguments until it starts back up again. 01:11 Wed Aug 12 I would support this, because some of the nominations really seems to be people being picky and wanting art to do. It's causing lots of arguments and images are being tweaked and redone unnecessarily. We should still have a way to tweak images for really important things (basically new information about a character's description) but I think that closing these pages at least temporarily could do the project some good. 01:55, August 12, 2015 (UTC) I agree with Splook. I don't support or not support closing the tweak nominations, since this problem has been here for ages before I even joined this project. 02:59, August 12, 2015 (UTC) I'm 100% in support of this. I'm getting sick and tired of seeing nominations for things that really do not need to be tweaked. Honestly bringing back the idea of tweak week isn't seeming like such a bad thought anymore. 06:21 Wed Aug 12 Okay, I take my comment back. There is way too much drama on the tweak nominations page and I now fully support closing them down since people are leaving because of it. 13:00, August 12, 2015 (UTC) Everyone's getting listless and bored due to the lack of new images to make. I say close it down until at least Goosefeather's Curse comes out and generates more art to make. 21:53, August 12, 2015 (UTC) eh, i guess we can close it. do what it takes. 01:35 Thu Aug 13 Idk, I think this would set a careless precedent. It's like: when the going get's tough, let's just avoid it. While it is a redundant situation, we're still a project. Honestly, I think we can get through it without bowing out. 02:41, August 13, 2015 (UTC) Was I the one who pushes everyone pass their breaking lines? If I was, I apologize. I support closing the tweak page and nominations page for a little bit, I won't even argue if it's gone forever. Myself was hurt very very badly by this thing, and I wanted to leave PCA. It's true, Winterflurry knows that. It's really time for it to stop. atelda's right. closing PCA is a temporary solution to a problem that will keep on poking up. best we can do is keep moving forward. going back to my original opinion statement, lol 20:34 Thu Aug 13
