tbh i'm just mostly wondering why the fricc fracc the recent characters and attacks still don't show unless you click on the hyperlinks- iirc last year it worked fine, and the year before too, i know it might seem like a small thing but man seeing the new characters and attacks immediately on the home page was rlly convenient

Gotta agree wth everyone down,, i have only been on artfight for 2 years, but i remember it being more active?? even if it was less people, dunno :(

Very Disappointed  at this year,, the lack of public transparency with all the issues, yes, on the website, not on discord, is even more infuriating.

This year will probably be the first time I'll fill the feedback form. I seriously hope you guys bring in some more coders and admins before next year's fight.

As someone who has been on ArtFight for a long time now I can safely say that this year's problem are the collected droplets of problems that formed a puddle.

"We are aware that BBCode is having issues right now—please be patient as we work to fix it!"
Has been proudly displayed on the character editor FOR YEARS. The was no theme vote after some controversy, the banners were late and most importantly the "loading issue" has been going on for 2 weeks at this point.
Despite these glaring issues, there isn't a sliver of communication and there never has been. To add salt into the wound, anyone that wishes to speak via their discord requiers a TWO STEP verification. Aka. giving the even more controversial employees at discord your phone number. 
As an additional side note, the tag search is still labeled as "new" and continues to operate under the guise of being a "test" despite the fact that this feature was added in 2021...

With such a cool theme I really wanted this year to be fun but I'm struggeling so hard from a general wave of disapointment from all those issues and only comming across people with abysmal battle ratios... never ever had I put in so much engagement just to find someone to battle with :(

DarkArtsAnna 100% agree on this, I had much more interactions last year. Since the start of the event I think that only two people I don't know followed me? This year is really weird.

I don't actively search for new characters to bookmark, so I never click on the link to see them, but before the start of the event when the recent characters thing on the main page was working, I always stumble across a character who looked cool and I bookmarked so much of them! Since it's hidden I just... didn't bookmark anyone at all, other than from the submission of the people I follow?

I'm not even sure what the "while resolving load issues" means, wasn't that referring to the start when the site was very slow? It should be all good now, no?

Eevee33 As said DarkArtsAnna, the fact that recently posted attacks and characters are no longer visible had a big impact and not only for the teams.

The lack of visibility this year for artists who are not ultra popular has very bad consequences. To compare last year at this same period of the month I had received 10 attacks (excluding defense) This year only 2. I must admit my motivation is down.

Go team! >:D

I will revenge, I also do friendly fire <3

GLHF!

Looking for vamps to revenge >:3
Friendly fire is always welcome too!!

Attack me if you dare! I always do my best to revenge but sometimes it takes a lil bit ^^`

someone pls attack me im desperate at this point

Half of the Artfight is over and I am going to destroy all of the Vampires! My attacks are so devastating that you can´t even fight back! I am just getting started! 
SLAY THE EDWARDS STANS!!!!!

We're halfway through the month, when the recent attacks and recent characters stuffs on the main page are going to be back? I know we can click and it works here, but I feel like not a lot of people actually click on it.
