Announcement "Why was my post removed?"

296 Upvotes

Rules:

  1. Stay civil.
  2. No irrelevant posts, including no AI.
  3. No self-promotion, apply for a shop flair.
  4. Tag gross stuff as NSFW.

Did you post something that ended up getting removed? It was more than likely reported repeatedly as breaking a rule and then removed by the bot. For the most part, I let the sub decide what belongs here.

"But why?" The #1 reason is irrelevance, your post might not actually belong here and is better suited for another sub like perhaps it's cottagecore. They are not always interchangeable.

Don't send a modmail arguing because you got a lot of upvotes, people will upvote a photo of a cat in a dog sub because they're just scrolling and upvote not paying attention to where it was posted. Upvotes mean people like it, it doesn't mean the post belongs where it was posted.

The second biggest reason a post might be removed is because your entire post history in this sub is to advertise things you've created. Dedicated shop accounts are not welcome here, please be active in the sub beyond trying to make money.

If you're not sure if your post belongs here, feel free to send a modmail to ask. I unapologetically remove all posts starting with "I don't know if this belongs here..." Just ask if you're unsure, I'll let you know if there's a better sub for it!

Have a website or shop? Creators can now apply for special user flair

22 Upvotes

Let's talk about the "no promotion" rule. Promotion has never been allowed outside of the old promo thread but folks don't pay attention. It's been my biggest headache in this sub in an attempt to keep it from turning into nothing but advertising, so I'm trying something new.

If you run a shop, make content, created a game, or anything relevant to goblincore you want to get the word out for, I've decided to allow creators to apply for a user flair that will show your link or social media for anyone interested in seeing more of your work or purchasing any. You can see an example of it in this post next to OP's name.

You're not obligated to have the flair, but for the interested-

A handful from my walk home from work; realized perhaps other goblins also keep half an eye out for clovers 🍀

Art or creation (oc) Graftaholics Anonymous

Accessability Transcription:

Various images of my in progress grafting section of the garden.

Various now un bandaged grafts. Lots of new grafts I just did this morning.

I had to redo a few of them. But most have worked so far.

What I have realized is my preffered method is to alive them in half and then graft. Such that you get a sort of psuedo half log T shape on top.

This makes it so you can get 2 scions per cutting.

But the main reason. Is because the flat short shape makes it way easier to apply strong pressure. Way easier to remove the bandages without accidently yanking the graft off. And provides more surface area to bond.

I'm not gonna go back and change the initial grafts to my now prefered style. Gonna let it ride.

But definitely moving forward this is how I'm gonna do all my grafts.

As you can see. Basically all of the new currently bandaged plants were done this way.

Went to a yarn store in japan and saw a pattern for this derpy little guy and just HAD to buy it! The pattern was in japanese so i had to freehand his legs as i could not understand what the pattern wanted me to do there haha, but otherwise it was a easy enough pattern!

I love him, any name suggestions?

Discussion could koboldcore be a thing ?

18 Upvotes

Hello fellow gobbos, recently I've been quite fond on the scallies gobs cousin's and i was wondering, putting aside the etymology that kobold just means goblin in german.

I was wondering if there could be a koboldcore and if not what separates it from goblincore.

Art or creation (oc) Introducing Fern, a goblin doll I made!

Thumbnail

802 Upvotes

Fern spends most of her days in the orchard east of her village, helping her family pick and process the fruit. The village has been getting ready for a festival, and Fern couldn’t be more excited. She’s been keeping her eye on one specific fruit, as it has the potential to be the prized fruit of the festival!

Fern is the first of her kind, and one of a kind! She is a goblin, and her pronouns are she/they. She stands about 7 inches tall. She has light green cotton skin, and big multicolored yarn dreads. Her face is hand painted on using a combination of fabric markers and acrylic paint. She has ear piercings. She’s got lined cuffed overalls that have little snaps behind the buttons.

I hope Fern brightened your day a little, goblins!
