Why the hell would we need /jfa/? They just need to migrate to /fa/.

>jfa
what

>>2521333
Because /fa/ is full of hipster faggots.

>>2521335
Japanese Fashion?

>>2521341
And a lot of lolita aren't hipster faggots?

I'm okay with out it, /lit/ exsists so now I have a new place to troll with my shitty fanfiction.

moot doesn't give a shit about the cosplayers vs. lolita/j-fashion civil war going on ITB

>>2521347
No, they don't follow high fashion and wear tonnes of drapey layers and have hitler youth hair.

Although the one thing they do have in common is that they think their shit doesn't stink.

Is it really that hard to hide the threads you don't want to see? Stop bitching and get the plugin. (which doesn't work right now because of the update, but you get the idea)

>>2521382
It's not about cosplay + lolita. Really I read both sides.

But the fact is that /cgl/ is only for Cosplay + Lolita fashion. Thus the other Japanese fashions are excluded.

We can't talk about them here, we can't talk about them on /fa/. The solution? /jfa/

>>2521393
I think no one talks about other j-fashion because, well, no one here really knows anything about it.
I mean, who would bitch about fairy-kei or gyaru popping up here once in a while?

If you wanna talk about fashion, take it to /fa/. If you wanna talk about Japanese shit, take it to /jp/. There are TWO BOARDS to choose from if you wanna talk about Japanese fashion.

>>2521406
There's been a few pic spam threads here for other styles, but I think it's the fact that this board is seen primarily as being only for lolita fashion and no others. You know because posting other fashion would be against the rules etc. IDK

>>2521393
Ehh. I think there's not enough interest if it's been neglected to have a /jfa/ board. Really I think if Moot cared that much about what (a few) people wanted there would be a /alt/ for alternative fashions or some shit. It'd be nice, but I think asking favors from 4chan besides having the servers be consistent is a bit... dumb. I hate to put it that way, but, I don't think it'll happen within a few months. I haven't seen an assload of otome-kei/gyaru topics pop up on cgl.

>>2521438
Apparently though there's been multiple requests over time for /jfa/ to moot and all have been denied. So there's deff a significant amount of interest in it.

And I mean, there's boards like /sci/ and /n/ which don't really seem to have much activity or are off topic. So I don't see the harm in having /jfa/

/alt/ would be fabulous.

>>2521430
/fa/ is full of hipster faggots, this has already been established.
/jp/ is full of weeaboos.

>>2521436
"/cgl/ - Cosplay & EGL

1. Pictures depicting those in costume play ("cosplay") and elegant gothic lolita ("EGL") dress are welcome.
2. Don't bring community drama into this board. Singling out particular cosplayers and trolling them will not be tolerated.
3. ALL DRAMA ALL THE TIME!"

Unless there's a hidden rule section somewhere, I don't see anything prohibiting other j-fashions for /cgl/

I like /int/ so far.

>>2521461
>Pictures depicting those in costume play ("cosplay") and elegant gothic lolita ("EGL") dress are welcome.

= Setting the topics for the board.

With that said, I'm not saying that other fashions are prohibited, just that the general consensus is that only cosplay and lolita are allowed.

>>2521474
you're taking it too literal. seriously, who cares that j-fashion subcultures are posted here. it's not enough to warrant another board. Moot/any other mod doesn't seem to mind and if you've ever visited another board, the rules are bent all the time. Out of ANY of the other boards 4chan has, this is the place it belongs.

>>2521486
I'm sure the cosplayers would care. They already don't like the lolita threads as is.

/cgl/ is already a slow board.
Splitting a slow board into 2 boards is a current waste of effort for moot.

Trippy.... I fucking hate you.

>>2521490
speak for yourself. like I said. it's easy to ignore. install the plug-in, hide the threads, stop whining.

>>2521490
...only because most of them are pretty biased against lolitas as it is. I mean, yea, you get days on /cgl/ when there's a shit ton of lolita drama threads, but claiming that the only lolita threads to ever exist on /cgl/ are drama threads is a gross generalization.

>>2521494
I love you too lofi

>>2521513

>>2521526
Good times.

>>2521540
Gotta love how some tripfags try making their presence known by mentioning how much they hate lolita and troll lolita threads, but they don't really complain if we post some advice in theirs, eh? I love you cosplayers. I can smell unwarranted self importance from the screen.

>>2521593
I enjoy both kinds of threads, lolita and cosplay related.

>>2521604
I do too. I just don't appreciate the unwelcome "advice" from bastards like masa,lofi, and other fags. Most of the time I make threads cosplayers are pretty chill since they get discussion going on, but in the drama threads cosplayers act like cosplayer drama threads aren't there, or aren't as prevalent as lolita drama threads. It's annoying as hell and not going to change anything at all.

Hey Saku...you ever bother to think everyone here DOESN'T use FireFox...like Mac users use Safari...yeah...

>>2521679
I'm actually the other way around. I don't pay a shred of attention to lolita drama and the only way I even know it exists is because people keep mentioning that there's a lot of drama in the lolita society.
You could have told me that Lolita is totally drama free and I'd have completely believed you.

>>2521714
You're not being sarcastic? I like both worlds but I notice with the cosplayer world the drama is different. Ours is different. We have fatty drama, member drama, and occasional prude drama. Very little slut drama. Yours tends to be what ours is missing- slut drama and "she didn't make her costume!" drama. Maybe some occasional personality drama. I've honestly seen way more claws out in other comms though. I'm surprised though. In the topics I do make, cosplayers tend to post without two thoughts on lolita discussion topics that could be taken as general (Like the lost items topic) o.o. I don't mind at all- actually I like it because I know those people, especially if their tripfags, are doing more to create peace in here, but that surprised me.

>>2521456


NO. 'Alt' anything is even bigger cancer than hipster bullshit.

>>2521768
I like the alt comms on LJ but I've never perused them too much. I think an alt board would be shit though but I meant it specifically for shit like punk, goth, etc. Unfortunately I have the feeling it would soon get taken over by obese sm/gothic mistress with 2 boyfriends and a gigantic ego.

>>2521705
Doubt it. She's too stupid to do anything else right.

>>2521762
Nope, 100% honest. I have nothing against lolita fashion. Its not my style, but I'm not going to go around bashing it. I know nothing about it.

I hope the day does come where they spilt egl from cosplay. They are two very unrelated things and having them share a board just because it's not fast moving isn't very smart.
/jfa/ would be a good thing because it could cover a number of trends that there isn't anywhere to talk about on 4chan currently.
You can't go to /jp/. All it is is eroge and lonely men. They will flame the lolis much harder than cosplayers will.
/fa/ is the same case. They don't view lolita as fashion, and that's not going to change.
Until there is a point where either the influx of lolitas (because it has been a recent influx) dies off and goes back to LJ, or another board is formed, we are going to be bumping heads with one another because it's like oil and water.

>>2521705
Mac users using Safari is pretty retarded.

>>2521940
Not as unrelated as you think. There is some crossover. Both are hobbies that "originated" from Japan that a niche group of fans appreciate and look weird to outsiders in.To be honest, I don't mind either way. I know Moot doesn't want to waste more money and bandwidth to create another board. I think it's just a matter of girls not using /cgl/ as a way to berate others without getting their shoes dirty in the process.

>>2521948

Yes, because running FireFox with the huge memory leak is a much better idea...you're so smart anon...what would I do without you here?

>>2522009

Fuck, I want that. Cute Male is so full of fags it makes my vagina cringe.
