3. Market fragmentation. There is so much more of EVERYTHING.

Very valid point, I guess that was my unending sadness talking

Point 2 breaks down further

1. Mislabeled material. You may read my rants about BE in giantess stories (Yes, boobs grew, but so did the rest of her! Proportions unchanged == No BE). It's hard to filter out the good shit from the bad shit and there is a lot of bad shit.
2. Dunning-Kruger effect. There are a LOT of truly pathetic writers out there who think they're geniuses.
   
   Oh look a term I get to Google. Ah yes, I am comfortable 'chillin at the bottom-dip in the graph.
   

I am grateful that this thread has diverted to this. To explain (briefly) I don't think there is much content being generated except from the usual standbys. To find something, anything that gets a second chance that was both entertaining and erotic, is so darn awesome. And then there is the guilt of the feelings of Objectification, as stated on the BF Indiegogo site. But that can be for a later thread.

The last content I purchased was from Akemi Expansions and that was the, "Interview with Hasna" and that was strictly for Miss Hasna reaction of "You can't go bigger than this, can you...?"

Which is probably the most amazing thing I have seen in a long time. I could write twelve short stories from this expression alone.

I'm not at all sure what frustration you're referring to.

I expressed the belief that a four-panel comic strip isn't worth (and shouldn't cost) $500. There's no "frustration" in that, it's just my opinion that it's overpriced - an opinion that happens to be backed up by personal and professional experience, but still just an opinion. Jesus Christ, you'd think I'd pissed in someone's corn flakes.

Also, didn't actually catch that there was an option to pay $20 for the comic archive. I'll gladly chip in for that if the tier is still open, I'll have to check that out later...

I thought of sending Poison Elf a link to this thread and then figured that if he cared enough he'd have already commented. Well, looks like he cared.

I sit on the writing side, and depending on how you do it it is either less effort or far less effort than what the artist puts in, depending on how they do it*. The only reason I write this stuff is for fun and the only reason I try to publish it is to see how it turns out. The volume of stuff sitting in my repositories that I've never published and even tried to publish is ridiculous.

What I put in compared to what I make is nothing compared to what I make for similar effort at my day job.

*I have a certain amount of awe for Sal Buscema and Vince Colletta because the rate at which they could illustrate a book. The results were rarely spectacular, but called in at the last moment they hit the mother fucking deadline when no-one else could.
