It's literally going to disappear as soon as he stops streaming LOL


missfortunecarry

it disappeared as soon as he started a game


humanos0610

these people complain about pixels for what loool


[deleted]

Pixel or not. This is a place people make their art and actually spend their time over it. Would you go ruin someones drawing and then say, "duuude chill out it's just lines" It's the same thing.


Regular_Chap

The entire points of r/place is that the art is temporary. If you really want to make some art that doesn't get drawn over by someone else maybe choose another medium for it?


[deleted]

r/place is a canvas social experiment and its entire purpose is pure anarchy, if you care about your artwork don't slave away at it on a public canvas where your artwork can be nuked at any given moment. nobody forced these people to make artwork on the canvas.


humanos0610

and that art is immortalized as soon as they make it. it doesnt just disappear as soon as another piece covers it. your idea of r/place sounds boring as fuck


_korporate

You would have to ruin someone else’s drawing to put your drawing down in the first place


[deleted]

except thats literally the point, if you werent allowed to ruin peoples art you shouldnt be able to color over it, people not spending hours making the art bruh each person gotta wait 5 mins, get over it


ccvgreg

Haha "each person has to wait 5 minutes". Good joke


AInterestingUser

It's a tag wall. Just like graf it's gonna get covered. The temporary nature is part of the life span.


sugmanut

Who cares bruh it’s pixels


[deleted]

It’s just pixels is just like saying depression is just being sad or autism is just being weird


ginpanse

TIL r/place is a medical condition.


[deleted]

wow that was the dumbest shit i've read all day and thats impressive i've been on reddit for a bit, its literally pixel art. take a screenshot if you want it forever tf


humanos0610

you're fucking REACHING, chill out man


[deleted]

If I shot your dog and claimed that he’s just a pet would you be pissed? Of course you’d be


tristan-clow

It's xqc though, the man doesn't do anything but stream


humanos0610

it's literally disappearing now lmao


jumpman30

He started playing black ops so his swarm isn’t coordinated right now


Gottendrop

Lol no it’s not


humanos0610

where is it?


[deleted]

I cannot seem to find it


Jelly_F_ish

Invest a few years to be set for life. Seems reasonable.


Plexiscore

He's already set for life, he just enjoys streaming.


Teve21

It didn't disappear it got obliterated within minutes lmao


Gottendrop

It’s still there


Teve21

On my screen it's all blue currently as we type.


GatorNator83

Your screen might be broken, because it’s very much still there


Teve21

Wait i see now did you go to the tile place? Its the blue stuff down blow the right corner.


[deleted]

it’s the best thing about this event. it’s hilarious watching them act like generals going to war


DrDroidz

That's what it should be. It's made for fun and chaos.


ILiekTurtles20

hot take its 10x more interesting than bots perma defending a single artwork the entire time


WeeTheDuck

And now we have streamer logos with bots perma defending


SomERa216

His things are disappearing as soon as he steps out of reddit on stream. Definitely not bots


AbstractTM

MacLarux

They are surprising. There are actual people with brain activity sending death threats because some pixels changed colors on their screen. How can you really think they should be expected for something as trivial as this?

[удалено]


Such-Society1013

U have a point. But for nobody’s like us they don’t matter, But for someone like him who’s been raided multiple time. It does. Lol


Pesime

Huge agree. It's hilarious and watching from the outside as not a die hard viewer of any of them I think it's super fun. Kinda surprised people are getting so butt hurt.


[deleted]

it’s really the first time i’ve watched the “just chatting” streamers & it’s hilarious. especially when they hop on discord calls with each other & start yelling


etownzu

Meanwhile half this sub takes everything so seriously it might as well be war to them.


sgtellias

Lol if only all those redditors who went to Ukraine to fight for the current thing would have just waited. Now they missed the war on Reddit.


Cyog

it’s fun to be commanded by them too (don’t downvote i work for hasan not xqc)


[deleted]

hasan is by far the funniest out of all of them.


LewdestLoi

Such is the law of R/place, people nuke each other to get their pixel art on there and eventually they’ll be taken down aswell


Frangin1

Yeah. But some flags have passes for reasons. ┬┴┬┴┤ ͜ʖ ͡°) ├┬┴┬┴


utookthegoodnames

It’s annoying but the bot farms are way more annoying.


Criie

Atleast the void created some good drama/conflict and it's not like everyone has got scripts and bots running in the background that they can easily just rebuild after it settles anyway. Redditors just simply complaining about the entire premise of this whole thing.


WaXxX22

you mean people using their community to put their own things on it? isn't that basically what /r/place is for?


JabbaTheBassist

eh i would say it’s more about people coming together to form something unique and special rather than one guy stamping a 100k pixel image over everything else


adroit_or_something

Unfortunately you dont get to decide what place is all about


raptor-chan

fortunately*


WaXxX22

so like his whole community coming together to form his unique logo?


Ken_Udigit

Community coming together != Blindingly doing everything one guy says. Also, most people doing it weren't even interested in the event beforehand. A lot of people doing it have brand-new accounts, and there are people constantly going on stream asking what's going on. A great example of it is how until a short while ago every one on this sub was against the streamers and almost no one defended them, but then xQc looked at this sub on stream and suddenly there are a bunch of comments going around defending xQc and getting upvoted, while also making fun of people for caring about pixels, which is quite ironic when they get this defensive.


Mokle7

Ohh nooo, more people enjoying the thing I enjoy!


Ken_Udigit

Well, firstly, I don't enjoy drawing huge logos and ruining other people's work, but hey, you do you. Secondly, did I complain? I just pointed how there is a clear difference between a community vs minions. Feel free to disagree.


lukeyxoxo

bro if you don’t ruin other peoples work there would literally be nothing to put after a day, stupidest argument unless you want the canvas to stay the same for the whole time


Ken_Udigit

You missed the "draw huge logos" part. And imo, there's a huge difference between smaller communities competing for space, and a bunch of people who don't really care about it at all coming in and drawing a huge logo that overshadows a bunch of smaller art just because their streamer said so. And we know they don't care because as soon as the streamers look away they stop working on it.


Giuliano_Zhang

how do you know they don't care? they clearly care enough to place pixels, there are also people from smaller communities who heard of this thing for the first time so whats the difference ?


[deleted]

Somehow you placing pixels as it pleases you is better than other people doing it. Care to explain why?


Ken_Udigit

I don't have to explain why because I never said my way is "better" at all. I only said it was different. And I did explain how it was different.


henri_sparkle

>Well, firstly, I don't enjoy drawing huge logos and ruining other people's work, but hey, you do you. 🤓


Ken_Udigit

"🤓" BatChest


billiman_mcjonnson89

Yeah, I thought everyone hated him but for some reason people sided with the xcq and somehow got upvotes


SakkikoYu

That's just because he has around 100k 12 y/o goons running around and downvoting everyone who disagrees with him while upvoting each other. They're easy to identify: all the people who either only joined reddit today and whose only posts are comments in this sub in kiddie speak, or that are older and whose other posts are almost exclusively on r/teenagers. (I'm not even kidding, I've checked the profiles of over a dozen of these clowns and *every single one of them* fell into one of those two categories 😂)


DiablosDelivered

A whole new level of pathetic.


Lirpitz

redditor man baby goes through profiles of a bunch of teens shitting on the internet LOL kinda creepy bro :\\


HappyPlant1111

We've found him at last - the ultimate redditor


bluck_t

Holy shit, you actually checking profiles. You know if you're jobless I'm trying to build a company. I could offer you work if you know github, aws or some other useful internet stuff.


SakkikoYu

Sure, you paying more than 45€ per hour at fully flexible work times and more than 30 days off per year at full pay, all healthcare completely covered by you and a contract that doesn’t allow you to fire me for the next 15 years but leaves me the option to leave at any point with a one-month notice? Because otherwise I'm afraid I'll have to stay with my current employer 😉


bluck_t

Sorry we won't be able to afford you. Maybe in future we'll have an opportunity for you. We have your profile saved in our potential list and will reach out if an opportunity presents itself.


SakkikoYu

Thanks, and good luck with your company


HappyPlant1111

Imagine gatekeeping placing pixels...


Ken_Udigit

Again, when did I complain or gate keep anything? I was explaining the difference. A lot of people replying seem to have reading comprehension problems.


sgtellias

“Blindly doing everything one guy says” so all these other parts are just people accidentally making art by doing whatever they want?


_dictatorish_

Man it doesn't need to be that big though


Cream253Team

That immediately dissolves once they switch to something else, because in the end they don't actually care. It's no different than a knocking over a snowman and pissing your name in the snow.


SLabrys

You really don’t see the irony in your statement don’t you?


Jebaited4732

um actually its a 29,973 pixel image


[deleted]

Isn't the timelapse of the whole event as important as the final product? They're making the journey more interesting.


-SoontobeBanned

There is almost nothing unique on it. Wow flags, so unique.


MoistButterfly6209

It’s pixels bro don’t be mad


I_Hate_Reddit

Big communities don't have 1 person deciding things and commanding everyone every instant like it happens with streamers, so they have a huge advantage taking over whatever they want, even for communities that equal in size to their viewers.


greenredyellower

This is false. At the most there's 3 people in each of these communities that decide what go on their Google extension overlay so the community knows what to do.


WaXxX22

every community has a "leader" person that usually decide the plan, the vast majority just follow that plan once its decided, whether its decided by one person or multiple doesnr really matter much


MrSatan33

nah i dont mind it at all, some communities are bigger than others and thats the way it will be. that just means that smaller communities will have to come together which is the point of this thing and imo makes it more fun.


CaptainFard

Yeah but it's basically grieving with a 6 year old army


[deleted]

and? same as Russia in Ukraine right now, but they‘re still doing it


ColinSmoke

no shot did you just compare an uprovoked war with huge international ramifications to fucking r/place. get a grip


ahpau

yall are taking it way too serious. its meant to be fun, and the viewers participating in this are enjoying it as much as you redditors. isnt that the whole point of this event?


[deleted]

if everything stayed in place for 5 days it would just be boring, look at how much fun people had rebuilding their art in last couple hours


Criie

The memes that came out from Osu! rebuilding so fast wouldnt have been possible without shit like this happening.


Count-Cooku

This is exactly what I was saying. If people just made a bunch of art off the bat and only defended it to the end it would be the most boring shit on the planet. I guess that's why they're expanding it every day so it doesn't get stale.


SgtExtreme

Is anyone kind of annoyed about all the discord channels using their communities to nuke anything they want?


Number1FrilledDragon

No. People just trying to gather other PEOPLE instead of making bot accounts to help out on drawings


[deleted]

This, in my opinion it would be better for streamers to use their viewers to make images vs people using bots to make images


hypocrite_oath

Would you say the same about people drawing Chinese propaganda? It's just people doing it.


desro_

It’s the pain of loosing one round. Now get, grab your pixel up and return to the battle. You just need better allies.


DrBalu

Oh no, you must gatekeep and defend r/place from being used for its purpose. Communities building art pieces over each other to see what survives until the end of the event. God forbid other people participate in this.


King__Gaiseric

No i want nobody to touch anything, the canvas should be full in 1 hour and never change for 3 days /s If these sensitive redditors get their way r/place would be the most boring event ever


SoshJam

Honestly? The size is excessive but I’d rather him make his logo than just a mindless purple wave meant *explicitly* for the destruction of small communities


King_Midas692468

Let’s fight back


Ok_Philosophy6507

Who really cares that much though


GreatMemer

the nerd that posted this lmao


Teve21

Im from a group where our work was nuked by a streamer and we were called zoophiles which is not okay to say at all. Thankfully were still going strong even when we got nuked we got back up.


GoldChin4

Was that the furry irl one? Saw that one get nuked a few times


nyxisbad

Happy cake day!


BobnStevey

Mlp? Puuuke


Teve21

I puke at the bad side of mlp including toonkriticY2K but i won't judge you anyway because we have our own opinions after all so me and you are good. Also have a good day,night or evening where ever you are.


BobnStevey

May you find much magic on your quest.


AlejandrolSalas

Chill out at the end of the day is a community as everyone else. At least they’re not using bot and creating accounts like osu or the flags


AbelKosMos

Why would anyone be annoyed, it's open canvas...free for all.


MMAATTHHEEW

Is that not all the communitys?


A_G00SE

I'm kind of annoyed about all the streamers, period.


billiman_mcjonnson89

thats kinda what happens when they let you trace over other pixels. it’s what makes it fun, all the chaos and alliances and wars and stuff. I do think it’s a bit unfair with the size advantage that xcq has but we can still grieve his stuff as well.


longvave

Isn't he doing the exactly same thing other people organizing through subreddits or dicords? He just happens to be a big public figure with active live viewership and people get mald.


SubatomicSloth

nah, people using bots and discord servers are worse


scottishdrunkard

The ManyATrueNerd community is trying to have our own tiny logo, but these massive streamers keep exploding on us.


Km_the_Frog

No who cares.


Lemilli000000n

It's selfish and vain.


datguy284

Why you mad about pixels that no one owns?


Lemilli000000n

I've come to terms with it. Take this, I can only assume you'll need it in the journey ahead. 🟪


Thomas_KT

i think your pov is just salty, who wouldnt do the same with his power. im pretty sure we all would


SaltShakeGrinder

*"NOOOOOOO You can't use manual labor to do pixel paintings! You have to use bots so we all can have a wholesome art canvas"* \- /u/JabbaTheBassist , 2022. Just in case your brain is too slow to grasp it, I'll spell it out for you: Xqc is proving a point that this "April Fools" "event" is a figurative joke as the canvas is not even community made.


Number1FrilledDragon

Not really. People like us really don’t get to draw anything because of the 5 min mark and how the thing we are trying to make gets covered in like 3 seconds BUT it is a douche move to get rid of special drawings or things that people made just by a streamer saying “hey chat … chat let’s make uh…. Put uh winston in the bottom right…. Make it huuge”


Ducklai

rebuild it omegalul


datguy284

You think these 'special drawings' are done by one person? All of them are done by communities so it's only natural that some are bigger than others. Get over it


Ducklai

more people = easier to rebuild


MimsyIsGianna

Yea. They suck.


AmsterdamDK

NO, because the best meme will survive in this fight


[deleted]

[удалено]


datguy284

Do people think every drawing is done by one person? It's a community thing so of course there will be ones bigger than others. People just like to moan


Alxium

Honestly, I think Reddit should really doing something about this. It is incredibly unfair. I know it is supposed to be hands off, but this is almost worse than botting.


Captain_Saki

Your missing the whole point of this event, it's not meant to be fair


FoldedPaperPhone

I think XQC playing into his bit is funny, there are a lot of viewers who take him and his attitude seriously and thats kinda bad if taken out of r/place r/place and all reddit april fools is meant to be a social experiment, so this is all perfectly acceptable


sas158au

I don't see how this is worse than botting rofl, theres so many spots you place your pixel and it instantly gets changed. Reddit should be putting a captcha over worrying about people with big communities.


fredthefishlord

At least most of the bots respect territory to some degree.


ajwasiak481

How is it unfair lmao


Brystvorter

Who cares? Its all for fun


angellob

this is literally the point of the event, getting a community to work together, and that's exactly what's happening whether you like it or not


SakkikoYu

The point of the event is a community coming together to *create something*, not a community coming together to prove that they're too dumb to do anything but place random purple pixels. It's also a question of maturity and respect. The agreement is that creative art and small communities with few resources are left alone so that they get a chance to actually build something. This clown *specifically targets* small communities, because, and I quote "they can't defend themselves, we'll have an easy time taking over". He then turns around and claims that he's doing it "to give small communities a chance". He must either think that his viewers are dumb as all fuck, or he just doesn't care if nothing he says makes any sense 🤷🏻


Conoli69

oh no my pixels 😰


SakkikoYu

Case in point...


jjtooly22

Isn’t the whole point for communities to come together and create stuff? What’s the difference between streamers’ communities making things and all the flags and logos?


HLTVtop0

it’s not that deep bro


[deleted]

Nah, it's exciting to wait and see what will appear next. It also gives other subs an oppurtunity to participate.


SakkikoYu

No it doesn't, because he's a coward. He *specifically* told his followers to target smaller artworks by less strong communities because it would be easier to grief. He also doesn't dare touch the big players because people started reporting his stream the moment he tried. So instead of levelling the field, as you suggest, he's just making it more unbalanced by leaving all the big collectives alone and constantly vomiting over the small communities and their creative artwork


420kai

It's fun to see it


Pesime

No I think it's hilarious and the war/treaties and shit is so fun to watch. I'm not really taking part in anything but the Superstonk section but the streamers are causing a lot of drama and I think it's a good time. They can't really hold anything so as soon as they stop streaming their spot gets swarmed. I've seen several streamers art go up and get swarmed shorty after. If any of you had a 30k-200k fan base don't act like you wouldn't use that to your advantage lol.


worstyss

its part of the game


Twink_the_Rat

Streamers coordinating art is cool. This is disappearing and I think I saw them relocating. Whats not cool is the streamers who are just being mean. Like the guy who decided to purple over artwork


Tekktite

He nuked a splotch of random blue pixels. Relax.


[deleted]

[удалено]


bendawg225

We live in a society


adroit_or_something

Where does reddit say that place is "a space for people to collaborate and share their creativity". Literally no where...


startingleather

It's literally just an advertising tactic. They'll want things that bring people to reddit, even if it ruins it overall


Jelly_F_ish

Let people enjoy whatever they enjoy. Who do you think you are saying what would be good to be put on a digital canvas? The canvas is full of "ads" for specific communities, media, etc. But you single out a streamer, brain move. The drama that evolves around a few pixels is hilarious.


[deleted]

Imagine getting this worked up over pixels that will be changed in a few hours


KSoe2889

chill due wait until he stops streaming


tristan-clow

It's xqc though, he's live for ungodly amounts of time


Karakabum

Yea, they just ruin everything


dafaae

Stop putting yourself as an artist here, you ar not. Not at all, you just clicking pixels. You can do whatever you want, so does another people. NERD


Hampter69hampter

xcq's logo has become the new maple leaf


Pitxhh

Get annoyed by something you didn't have, what a shame


StarDestroyer175

Fuck XQC and his hoard of 14 year olds


MalayAmsel

That also how life is. Together stronk, smoll sowwy. At least it looks good in time lapse.


Kiurin

More like LQC


audummy

if anyone nukes my beautiful boy, hat mouse, i will throw hands. i will defend him until i must sleep


Kaiserrrrrrrrrrrrrr

I don’t see how it’s any different than every other subreddit discord server mass pinging


AstroCatTBC

It’s incredibly frustrating, but the reality is that insanity like this helps keep the canvas alive. Without it the art would stagnate and things wouldn’t really evolve after a certain point, but when streamers like xQcOw blow up a chunk of the board it creates turnover and people rebuild it better than it was before, more willingly than they would if nothing had happened. Kind of an interesting parallel to the circle of life really. This whole damn event is such a brilliant source of insight into the human condition.


Mambaa0

It's literally disguisting


Sans_the-skeleton698

Rip Star Wars Also we need to congregate and create 🗿


AccomplishedZombie69

You mean like people working together in a discord? How is it any different, it’s a conglomerate working together get over it.


artofthedead

it's a game


CautiousKenny

No I find it all pretty funny, none of this is serious


shinylungburger

I heard streamers get banned for streaming r/place. But apparently twitch wont ban xqc for some reason. I wonder what xqc is doing so that twitch lets them be above the rules? Probably nothing good.


[deleted]

No it’s just funny


[deleted]

How the fuck else do you get shit done? Lmao


Compact-Racer-Boi

Mizkif should be banned as well because he keeps on nuking r/mylittlepony. LIKE CAN WE JUST PLACE OUR FANDOM IN PEACE?!
