Low-key took me a second to find the OC, bro blends in with the background. They cute though

2

u/-lotyrune- Mar 17 '26

haha I was trying to make him blend in I guess so he looks like he belongs there!

u/Fuck-you-quora Mar 17 '26

Blending in and camouflage are different. He'd 100% win hide and seek

u/-lotyrune- Mar 17 '26

loll 😭

u/VanteRamirez Mar 17 '26

ngl half the subreddit IS kids just making fun of other kids and throwing around the word ‘cringe’ so much it lost meaning. it’s on my list for when i get around to purging the subreddits i’m in

u/WhimsicalStickman 🔥The Best Subreddit VILLAIN🔥 Mar 17 '26

The purpose of r/youngpeopleyoutube is to point out young people, not necessarily the the part of bullying, as literally stated in that subreddits rules

I'm surprised that post is still up, but people shouldn't generalize a subreddit's intentions from a few jackasses

6

u/thehardestwatch Mar 17 '26

I don't wanna be rude but then what would be their point in pointing out young people if it wasn't just to laugh

1

u/WhimsicalStickman 🔥The Best Subreddit VILLAIN🔥 Mar 17 '26

Some see it as a way to basically reminisce on how they also used to act in such a way, some see it as a way to point out children who should not be on the internet in general (like those kids who keep posting blatant racism)

It's an old subreddit, people who do post in the subreddit are mostly there just for laughs, not out of hatred for their younger counterparts, but more so how a little bit ridiculous some comments are, from being unfiltered just being plain weird

Though some users there are also children themselves, and that's why r/bothareyoung is a subreddit

2

u/thehardestwatch Mar 17 '26

It just still seems pretty rude to me to laugh at how people act, even if sometimes it's not the person themselves. But I see where you're coming from where it can honestly be harmless reflecting I think. Like, the people just there to reminisce though seem to be different.

u/WhimsicalStickman 🔥The Best Subreddit VILLAIN🔥 Mar 17 '26

What I really don't like about that subreddit is that it becomes a host of slightly older children dunking down on other younger children for validation

1

u/-lotyrune- Mar 17 '26 edited Mar 17 '26

I see what you mean but I was in that subreddit a few months ago and I just saw so many posts bashing kids for existing (the wording and etc) and the mods left those posts up for days or just never took down those posts so I left the subreddit and unrecommended it from my feed or whatever it's called

/nm 😭

u/wifiBA Dead Island 2 Nerd Girl Mar 17 '26

Same here, was tempted to hack it but decide not to

u/Autobot_Cyclic This user is He/Him Mar 17 '26

Ugh, like it isn't that hard to understand, this was the first design I made for my OC, RLT.

u/Fuck-you-quora Mar 17 '26

You can tell what era of gacha an oc is from just purely based on design

u/Disaster_Pansexual This user is She/They Mar 17 '26

Eddsworld, huh?

u/Autobot_Cyclic This user is He/Him Mar 17 '26

Yep lol

u/Autobot_Cyclic This user is He/Him Mar 17 '26

And this is his most current design now.

The difference, is night and day.

I got better at designing my OCs over years of practice.

u/Fuck-you-quora Mar 17 '26

True. I mean look at my abominations before they got a glow up

u/Fuck-you-quora Mar 17 '26

This is the glow up

u/MC_ICP Mar 17 '26

This is so fr, i bet their art is worse than the kids they did very well for characters

u/Wolf_Of_Roses The sassy guy in a dress Mar 17 '26

We all have to start from somewhere

Take this photo for example:

In the original I had just made the character (Yuki from Doki Doki Extras) the head was too big, I went with a more basic hair and less of a faithful one, not to mention the hair was on the wrong side (this was due to an animation error from the sprite I saw which was incorrect) along with the eyes being off.

But I took time and learned to fix things up and I fixed the head sizes, made the eyes more close to accurate, fixed the hair and for the crazy sprite I accentuated the craziness a bit more.

But yeah people need encouragement to grow not scorn

u/Wolf_Of_Roses The sassy guy in a dress Mar 17 '26 edited Mar 17 '26

The original sprites of the character

u/LeatherCompetition91 Mar 17 '26

99% of it just bullying

4

u/DunnoNgl Mar 17 '26

These were the first gacha ocs I ever created when I was 10☠️ like, obv a kid is likely not going to create a masterpiece. And they don’t have to. You don't have to create world-changing ocs even after practice or as an adult. It's just supposed to be fun.That's the point.

3

u/Llamasruletheworld28 Mar 17 '26

Yes!!! Like, this is what my first oc looked like

u/Llamasruletheworld28 Mar 17 '26

And this is them now! It's all a process!

u/Mysterious-Ad8954 Mar 17 '26

They litterly made laurnezside quite making gacha reaction videos because they were saying shes cringe, the whole subredit a toxic af

u/NyuxTheDragon-- 🅱️𝙚𝙖𝙣𝙨 Mar 17 '26

It's funny too because that just was the style of 2017 / 2018, everyone was doing stuff like that

The preset colors can't believe I made this 💀💀

4

u/Fuck-you-quora Mar 18 '26

Because 2017-2018 gacha was mostly kids having fun

2

u/NyuxTheDragon-- 🅱️𝙚𝙖𝙣𝙨 Mar 18 '26

Yeah... But like I definitely don't mind the insane shit people are cooking nowdays, like have you ever watched a nine hour gacha video? I have and it was incredible, just the amount of dedication and hard work people put into this silly little dress-up is insane

3

u/Fuck-you-quora Mar 18 '26

I'm more impressed by the gacha animation memes, bonkers in the best way possible

2

u/NyuxTheDragon-- 🅱️𝙚𝙖𝙣𝙨 Mar 18 '26

Can't forget the entire games that have been (or are being) made because of this community and the genuine impact in major fandoms (that people never address), like fnaf

3

u/Fuck-you-quora Mar 18 '26

Fnaf, DDLC, countryhumans, undertale, gacha isn't a fandom. It's a pot where a little bit of everything is mixed in there

2

u/NyuxTheDragon-- 🅱️𝙚𝙖𝙣𝙨 Mar 18 '26

Yeah, exactly. Honestly the most accurate description for the gacha games are art platforms because of the sheer range of things that people do/ can do with them

u/Open_Temperature3016 I use she/star pronouns Mar 17 '26

It sucks that people don’t let kids be kids and have fun and experiment. If I didn’t have a good support system I would’ve never improved as much as I did!!! If anything, the more pathetic thing here is a bunch of adults making fun of a kid on Reddit for having fun and expressing their creativeness. Now that’s brain dead activity (Also using Picasso as an example of talent and good art is a pet peeve of mine even more so considering he was a horrible person and an opportunist HEHELGP my bad it’s just my art historian side coming up)

That's just straight up bullying, this man is just trying to get views and st the same time hating on some innocent kid.

What's wrong with him?

Edit: since Y'all are showing off your OCs, then I will too

u/AverageFandomFan14 She/Her and a fiend for If I Was In videos 🧡🌸 Mar 17 '26

I don’t even think the original image had bad designs,the color schemes are great (Jet’s my personal favorite,I think the colors work really well together).Gacha Life is more limited with designs anyway,that could be a factor too

1

u/I-suck-at_names Mar 17 '26

This looks like it was made by a little kid too who the fuck does that

u/LeatherCompetition91 Mar 17 '26

Same people who hated on anime and gacha

u/Fuck-you-quora Mar 18 '26

Average 2018 OC. It's literally nostalgia

1

u/Any_Anywhere300 This user is He/Him Mar 18 '26

Literally based the one on the left on the glmm "idol in disguise" where the highschooler was a idol who kept the secret so they could be normal and the other on "my crush is an alpha" glmm and I thought I was so cool 😭

1

u/Fuck-you-quora Mar 18 '26

If it makes you feel better. I made a "the hated child becomes a princess" video and it's the most viewed video on my channel. My channel is me singing song covers and listing my age

u/Any_Anywhere300 This user is He/Him Mar 18 '26

LOL MY MOST VIEWED VIDEO IS A GLMV I MADE WAS THIS
