AniList - Animanga Tracking Community Turned TDS-Ridden, Pro-Lolicon, and Pro-Troon Hugbox

[Thiletonomics]

• Natalie, the open lolicon advocate, is now a mod again.

This Natalie is also a massive consoomer as well:




With the amount of money blown on this collection, would this Natalie have been able to get something like a used car instead of this "shrine"? And the amount of pink is going to burn people's eyes out at this rate.

The AniList stats pages says that there are 17k+ reviews on the site, but I don't seem to see them compared to MAL:



Does the longer (?) character requirement for AL reviews compared to MAL ones (?) lessen the amount? Part of the fun of these Animanga tracking sites is reading reviews, whether they are actually helpful, or just massive shitposts. They seem to be rarer on sites not called MAL.

Also, is there a reason why these Animanga tracking sites don't allow you to rate a character or staff member as disliked? The exceptions are that AniDB lets you rate characters and staff on a 1-10 scale, and Anime-Planet lets you mark characters as disliked, and you can leave comments about characters and staff as well.

I think it's just because MAL has like nearly 20 million more users than AniList and is a decade older.

These places are run by thin-skinned egoists, though at the same time, are aware their community consists of similar people who literally grow too attached to drawings to the point any criticism of said-character can drive them to suicide. So I assume to avoid (lol) conflicts between strangers, they don't allow you to rate characters with dislikes.

Mind you, it doesn't stop people from popping onto your page to scream at you about rating their totes-favorite show less than an "8", but to them, that's more manageable than having to deal with the autists who think they're actually married to some character and will scour the Internet for detractors to whiteknight for them.

Yeah honeslty 18 is a minor to me because it ends in teen and minors should never be allowed on the internet at all especially anime places as those places really are awful to bring around to kids since how creepy alot of the people there are.

You're one of those 'tards who subscribe to the "brain finishes development at 25" spiel, aren't you.

So I'd assume the community being thin-skinned also makes it so you can't rate reviews as disliked on these sites. MAL used to have an option to rate reviews as disliked, but it was removed because I think either JoJo or One Punch Man obsessed fans whined because their reviews were getting 'review bombed'.

Strangely though, Anime-Planet allows you to comment on people's reviews, which can lead to people bitching at each other, and is the closest thing to rating a review as a dislike. One example being this Jujutsu Kaisen review where someone gave it a 1/10, but it did correctly predict that JJK would turn out to be not that special in the end, and the ending also missed the mark.

Partly true, it was mostly because the mods are fucking full of themselves and had been dicking around with the reviews before 2015. I think one of them at the time was a fan of OPM and got tired of dealing with the bullshit while it was airing, which is why this (in)famous review by an actual shitlord troll was the "final straw".
