>if you aren't seeing the content you want to see then make it, the bar isn't very high.Here's my response in full: Why should I?
To put into context, I only discovered this fandom about a month ago. I mostly am coming in from the MLP community, and working on fan projects is not foreign to me. But there's only so much fanfiction can do.
See, I decided to try and find out what some fluffy artists did after they stopped doing fluffies. There's a lot of dead ends. But I decided to look up Marcusmaximus, one of the OG fluffy artists, back when it was still MLP related. And then, i found out something. He has his own comic:
http://www.dragon-mango.com/Granted, he was working on his comic before he got into MLP, or fluffies, but, its his dream project. Its something he devoted himself to.
It has got me thinking: why would some of the authors and artists delete their work? There's a variety of possible reasons. They may not want some people to hunt down for their more abusive stuff. But, and in the case of wolfram and gr1m_1, a part of me is wondering if they are taking some ideas they worked on, and are moving it to another endeavour where they can be properly credited. It could explain why gr1m's space invasion comic got expunged, while everything else remained.
You say "don't overthink it". But, thinking about what a fluffy's diet can be like, and how fluffies can affect ecosystems negatively, is also similar overthinking. In this case, I'm looking at how *I" view the content. What it says to me, and what I am getting out of it. This critique and commentary matters because, as an aspiring writer myself, I intend to convey certain messages and themes in fiction, and one way to do that is also as a commentator and critique. And that is what I am doing with the fluffy fandom. But for the creative aspect, I am not applying to fluffies - my approach is to take what I liked from this fandom, and apply it elsewhere.
