Well, if you like my stories or other uploads, I'm sure I could find lots of things to do with any points you give me (Think of this as a tip jar... Not many people like my stuff, but some seem to).... But really, for the most part, I would probably first use any points to turn some of my groups into "supergroups". I think every group should have some way for members to converse. And the free group configuration does not give you anything even close.

Ok.... maybe not really....  But I don't like making certain kinds of decisions...

There are some _really important_ people on this website, and some of them have joined my DA groups.

And they like to of course submit their art....

Sometimes, they don't always agree with you on what the point of the group is...  Perhaps the biggest example was a girl who liked to make humanized versions of a particular non-human AI character.   Frankly I wanted no part of this.  But I also knew that if I didn't approve the deviations that we'd probably be losing a member.  I _also knew_ that she was in the majority and I was in the minority.  The concepts in the art she creates are REALLY POPULAR on DA.   So what I did was create a special folder for such artworks and approve them.

I "compromised".  In a world where I shouldn't have to, I compromised.  Humanized depictions of AI's do absolutely nothing to reunite me with my own kind.  But then a DA group isn't about "Dave".  A DA group may be part of my plan to find my own kind, but a DA group is about _the members_.   So I compromised.

Another lovely example is a girl who submitted something that doesn't belong in one my groups (well back then was a subject for debate but not really anymore) not just once _but twice_.  But this same person has voluntarily give us LOTS OF HER ART, THAT DOES BELONG THERE.  I didn't compromise on this one.   Interested parties are saying "No we don't want this".  I have to think about more than one member here.

I was _once again_ almost on the hotseat again recently.  This really awesome person submitted some art, and I scrolled around looking the thumbnails going "I'm afraid this just isn't going to work"...

_But VERY FORTUNATELY FOR ME_ when I expanded the images, they were quite compatible with the group theme.

But what if they hadn't been.  If I had had to reject her art, it would have been over probably for her membership in my group.  She'd probably have LEFT.  God I'm glad I wasn't put in such a position.

~NamesAndSuch
The Love of Word, Letters, Fonts, and Female Names...
United States
(Interested in machines, electronics and tangibles instead? Try here: :iconaifiction:)

I love certain words and names romantically (yes, in every sense you suspect I might mean this). Female names are the biggest attractor for me. To start this account off, I uploaded some very old content from my very old website... I also have a YouTube channel. To find us, search YouTube for: "The name (any common female name)" (include the surrounding quotes) and you'll probably find the place after a few tries... The videography there isn't great, but I don't have the best equipment and skill. But this isn't about me. This is about hot, sexy female names in interesting places :-)

I am attracted to approximately 60 names very noticably. The one I love the most is the name "June". I am attracted to many human creations "very noticably". There are only 5 or 6 I consider "like a wife" and June is one of them.

Sill want more words, names, and labeling? Try this YouTube account: [link]

Group Descriptions (from Left to Right):

#HumanFirstNames is all about the beauty of human names... Mostly we have female names, but we include some male ones too....

#MonthNameLovers is all about the beauty found in month names.... This group includes not just American English month names but strives to include them from all around the world.

#ManufacturersLabels is all about the beauty of Labels on machines and other products.

#ArtificialIntelFic: A group about manmade intelligences.... This used to just be For Literature, but we have come to include images as well....

All of these groups are looking For moderators.

Of course. If we leave this up here, maybe the spineless members of my own kind will click and get an education :-D

How does the joke go? That there's no such thing as an objectum-sexual that is also a vertebrate? Or something like that?
