Do me the favor and READ THIS, please

When you are in a fandom sooner or later you will create a character of your own for it. Only trouble in a fandom is: OCs are worth nothing.
No matter how good their background story is developed, he/she always will get the "Mary Sue"-stamp right in the face from others. No matter how you change the look from the original, you will find it unappreaciated compared to a fanart that comes a dime a dozen.

I am NOT implying that fanarts are bad. I like them a lot (especially TF2 fanart), but I want to say that there are also OCs out there, who are not created with the SFM or Garry's Mod. OCs who are created with a damn lot of heart blood, who were developed over months (maybe even years) and still are doomed to go down against the originals.

So please remember, that sometimes even OCs deserve a little bit of appreciation.

Thank you for reading
