NYCC was a mess of disorganization, yes. x.x I wish I could have seen you at the con. ^^ The half time show was really good. The "volunteers" weren't really volunteering at all to do anything unless you bitched at them too. x.x I think it'll be better next year, but they really need to do something about the crowding... And I've actually never been to a Comic Con before, I don't know if it was their crowd or what, but I found a lot of people to be really rude and pushy. D: Don't let it get to you, though. If mature, polite people like you stop going, cons really will suck. Just keep that in mind. <3
OMG. T.T I had no idea that was you. I wish you said something, I apologize for not recognizing you. ; ; I have a super awful habit of not recognizing people in costumes I've never seen them in before. I now feel like an asshat.
The 2 years I've been to NYAF has been nothing but a bad experience for me, so I didn't go this year. I mean there were good moments (And I did meet you and Janina there) but a lot of that good happened not in the con. So I figured I wouldn't spend my money on it anymore. -As well as for other reasons-.
A lot of my friends did go though and they complained about the amount of people as well and the fact that NYAF was apparently non-existent compared to Comi-Con. I heard that they were planning on combining it next year again. I'm not so sure that will be a good move, but hey, who knows.
That aside, I've always been a pretty realistic person. So I always focused more on my life than cosplay even though I do love it. But a lot of times, cosplaying starts to feel overrated and like it's not worth it anymore. Personally I think it IS from dealing with less mature people -that seem that have grown in numbers-, it becomes such a turn off being around them after a while. And making friends through cons and cosplay was always a perk, (I

^_^ always happy to see u when u come out. u are awesome wonder woman. teach kids, get more college under your belt and take care of your family still some time to have fun. u give me hope, that still have life after kids. u are awesome mom ^^
Sorry that you’re feeling ignored by some people. I tend to feel a bit awkward randomly calling people or asking about hanging out outside of cons since I worry that they’re busy with their own lives. ^_^; But we should hang out or have tea sometime like we were talking about at NYAF. Let me know when is good for you!
I didnt even know you went to the con till I saw you post pics on your facebook. :( I think besides everyone growing out of cosplay. The NY/NJ cosplayers dont make as many cosplay hang outs anymore and that also dosent help that feeling distant feeling. I hardly could go to any cause I lived so far south. But now living with Xais I can actually travel and do stuff. Maybe someone re starting the cosplay hang outs or just hang outs in general besides just for drinking could happen?
