Because they’re like the generic store bought brand of the original product. Like most of the time you can’t tell the difference, like if you went to the store and bought a box of mac & cheese or a case of pop. But other times it’s more noticeable, like buying a cheap replacement remote or controller for your system- it’s functional but it just feels…meh. That’s the G5 Wal-mart comparison comes into play.

Ironically that’s exactly what it says beneath the ropleplay quote included with each image! It’s like the OP doesn’t listen to their own rules 🤦‍♂️

@Eragor14
nah it’s fine for him cuz need to know find some episode of g5 that why i can’t solved some edit image

There’s nothing wrong with uploading screencaps per se, but people don’t have to upload every fucking frame. They drown out all the other images on the page.

If roleplay isn’t allowed in the comments why is it allowed in the image descriptions? It’s ridiculous to allow roleplay in one text box but not in another text box a little farther down the same page. The image description is supposed to explain the image or add something useful or relevant. It’s not for some sad little roleplay session. Roleplay should be contained to the roleplay forum.

@PuffyDearlySmith
I have to agree with this. TBH the roleplay images are frequently uploaded in the form of GIFs, which is a nice way to document scenes from the series. The biggest issue I have is that I fear that I will get flagged if I say literally anything in response to those GIFs.

Also, I kind of wish there was a limit on the number of uploads a user could do, so that we don’t get that kind of screencap spam following the release of a TyT episode.

@Dragonpone
Thanks for the info.

Still does nothing about images uploaded by anons, but at least it’s something.

At least the role-playing doesn’t interfere with the uploads.

I find the screencap spam more annoying than the roleplay since the former uploads every single scene from TYT which clutters up the search.

@Background Pony #5F62
They’re the cheap version made to imitate a good product.

The third type is “super high quality art from people who genuinely love the characters”

And the worst thing about this is we can’t just hide/filter the weird RP in the descriptions.

@Toastypk
At least you’re not spamming screencaps or inserting weird RP in descriptions.

This.

@Eragor14
You can actually, add “uploader:X” to the complex filter section.

@Background Pony #16D6
How do they relate to walmart?

@Loroyo
only 14.82% of MYM and 10.58% of TYT images aren’t screencaps, shit’s kinda fucked

What about me who likes to find to find good gifs and screenshots of my favorite characters?

@miky94c
Okay….but you can’t block uploaders on Derpi… so that info is kinda useless…

I honestly kind of wish the RP images would remain in the RP forums, so that we don’t get the excessive descriptions saying ‘keep comments in the forums. Don’t comment below images’.

G5- the Wal-Mart ponies.

the screencap spam is was “ItsMGH1203”

Please, stop the screencap.
