I had so many theories:
Theory 1:
Have 2 forums leading to different animation choices: = FAIL
Theory 2:
If animator is good enough, it is required to animate fullbody now, (And Im one of them good animators lolz) = Awaiting feedbacks
Theory 3:
Not continue this anymore and restore everything that everyone worked hard for = Awaiting feedbacks
Theory 4:
People Power XDD lolz
Theory 5:
Have no choice but accept and work hard for the best

Look guys i know this is a massive change but if we dont push our selfs to our limits we wont improve and if any of you are like me and want to make graphics your job then this is the best way. I still think they should have eased into it a lot more but we cant help whats already been done.

Okay, right. Everybody can learn how to draw fullbody with a mouse. I get it.
But it would take A LOT of time and effort. people will most likely to give up and go to another community because of frustration, and that's no good for the page, is it?


So what you're saying alot of these stick animations don't require a shit ton of time and effort with mouse? So what if you have to do more work? Boo fucking hoo. But like you said in your quote you have the complete option to get the fuck out and go somewhere else. I'm pretty sure it'd be more productive than whining about how hard things are and annoying other members.

As arch-angel said, the STICKpage thing isn't an issue. Since stone brouht the RHG idea from FA it has nothing to do with stickpage. Is the rhg system changing not the whole forum.

Man, I just went to all the pages to read everything.
I think the whole new rhg system is great but like everyone is saying, doing it fullbody isn't a good idea.
Sure that it will improve our animating skills but I think we should stick with stick anims.
Not just because a lot of people here can't do fullbody but I want sticks to be more popular through this community.

I'm not against this idea or whatnot, I'll just go with stone's decision like what I've been doing since when I was in FA.
Seeing fa again is really great, everyone's saying that it's all about stick in here but we can do fullbodies for fa ^^

Yeah God this doesn't mean we can't animate stick figures anymore lol. You can still have your little fighters and do little battles with each other.

Myself along with all of the other cool kids are going to be animating in full body because we lift.

And may I point out, people came to FA and SP to view and share STICKFIGURE animation.

Fullbody was just a small thing on the side, that people could dabble in, but it wasn't the main point for the community.

Now you're just going to lay it on us, that a small thing that people wern't really supposed to do, will be manditory if you would like to participate in the biggest animation batteling system that ever exsisted?

No, I know Stone wouldn't do this. I just know it.
And if its true, then I don't think it would be worth being in a community that just threw away all this hard work for nothing.

*tear rolls down eye* bravo bravo
i agree with arch-angel its not going to be 100% fullbody all the people not yet ready will just not have there RHG's up which also fixes the problem of people that dont know what there doing posting RHGs.

pretty much, yeah. animating stick figures is a choice made due to a lack of skill and/or laziness for virtually everyone who gets into it.

the only difference is whether or not you acknowledge that.

If I fail to animate fullbody, If I fail to do everything for the community, then its back to sprite animation for me I guess
But i will try my best to keep practicing, become better, at first my goal is to animate stickfigures with clothes, drawings and anime-like things, to improve and animate anime, but at this situation, that goal has come alive once again.
I will do my best to animate these fullbody stuff
