    Wolves come in packs, and so board (and boar) members. Thing’s arent looking too bright there.

    • Sean

      Okay, I don’t know about everyone else, but I’ve pretty much had it with you going off on a rant about how Mora-Centric the storyline is every dang new post. If you hate it so much, stop reading. You’re entitled to your opinion, but that doesn’t mean everyone else wants to hear it. I’m sure you aren’t the only one who hates that Mora always gets what she wants, but you are the only one constantly complaining about it. I can’t force you to stop, nor will i try to, but it might be nice for everyone if you stopped being so cynical.

      • OtakuMan

        It might also help if people stop talking about how they hate a series called “Batman” because it focuses too much on some guy named “BATMAN!”  I mean HONESTLY people, what the hell!?  She’s the MAIN CHARACTER!  The PROTAGONIST!  The person who will likely change and evolve as the comic continues on and on.  Do I have to put on some shades and say “Deal With It!”?  If so, I’ll do it, too!

        • Anon

          Las Lindas is the name of the farm, not the character. Otherwise, she wouldn’t be called Mora, now would she?

        • Dark

          She does not evolve though, she is about the same as she was at the beginning  of the comic. Any lessons she learns, she forgets, and usually when she should learn a lesson, the universe tells her its okay and pats her on the head and gives her whatever she wants.

      • ertre

        If you hate her so much, stop bothering yourself and everybody else and just leave.

      • Icalasari

        Entre, an author, an artist, nobody can get better without criticism. People raise valid points. Mora is a Mary Sue so far, with how everything goes her way. Are you saying that people aren’t allowed to tell an author what they do and do not like? It doesn’t work that wayHonestly, if I wrote a series (and don’t try the whole, “I’d like to see you do better,” thing. It’s a cop out argument), I would be pretty PO’d with any fans who were telling people with complaints to stop complaining

         @ Al: TrololololNuff Said

      • mearth

        to be blunt about this, yes, this does show signs of being bad for patches, to be fair, it already is bad for patches, but your statement is only half baked, if you took a few seconds to think, the board is mostly concerned about the COST which means even if patches were to get fired, THEY WOULD STILL MOST LIKELY START BUILDING

      • wackamole

        @Icalasari, I agree with you that there should be some complaints to point out the blaring errors and whatnot, because it does help to have some criticism about the comic and all. However I think that Al has taken it to far for a while now, and it irritates a lot of forum-goers. Just saying.

      • Hawker

        Indeed. “Al” single-handedly keeps me from reading these comments.Meanwhile, Alej looks a whole lot like Gendo.

      • Timni

        Its kinda his comic i think he has the right to write how he wants it!!! top being such an a** and leave or something!!!

      • Renadt

        There’s a fine line between criticism and just outright bitching. Al is on the bitching side of that line. While I may agree that Mora does get a lot, she started with nothing and ultimately had to prove herself worthy of entering the Festival, which was in no ways an easy feat. Alej, yes, worked her ass off for everything she had, but it is not that she attacked Mora that she is getting this. It is for putting her emotions ahead of her company, and for that reason and that reason alone she is facing the “firing squad.” Everyone pays the piper.

      • Zero

        the thing is, Mora really hasn’t gained anything. In fact, she keeps coming dangerously close to losing everything. She almost lost Minos and Digit, not to mention the whole farm was almost destroyed

      • RachaelR

        I don’t think it’s so much Mora getting what she wants all the time as the fact Mora is a terrible, terrible person through and through.

    • Aleuuzy

      Not to just jump int he conversation, but dude, Mora is the main character of this comic. Of course she’s going to get her way all the time. The writer’s, and I’m sure Chalo, don’t quite care if you think Mora deserves a good case of bad karma; if they want the comic to cater to her and getting everything she wants, the comic will do so. If you hate it so much, then stop reading it. It’s a totally simple solution.Personally, I can’t stand Mora either. I was rooting like hell for Rachael to kick her ass when they got into that fight. Too bad Sarah and Digit interrupted it. I would have liked to see how that played out. Point being, I understand how you feel, but ranting about it on the public pages of the comic is not going to change anything.

      • Thor

        Being the main character doesn’t mean that you meet a lot of adversity and fail to get the things that you want on a regular basis. For example, Spider-Man. 

        • Aleuuzy

          I was being rather sarcastic when I said ” Of course she’s going to get her way all the time.” I really just meant to emphisize that it’s not uncommon for writers to take favouritism with the main character of the story.

    • Dan

      In case you haven’t noticed, he obviously cares about the story and the plot. Who is willing to waste their time complaining and ‘being cynical’ about something they don’t even care about?Yeah, Al might not be the most cheerful guy around here. But I think it’s pretty funny when people say, “If you don’t like it, you can just not read it and leave”, when they themselves can ignore our jolly friend here if they don’t like his comments.

      • J-Man

        There’s nothing wrong with sharing your opinion on an issue,
        especially if you claim to truly appreciate something. The fact that Al comes
        back every week proves he has faith in the series. I agree with a lot of what
        he’s saying as well.

         

        A lot of these characters are horribly flawed and it never
        seems to come back to them. Realistically, this is totally plausible. Some
        people just get by. It doesn’t make for good reading or character development,
        though

         

        Mora really hasn’t changed all that much since the
        beginning, she really doesn’t learn from any of her own or other’s mistakes. I
        really like Rachael, but when is the fact that she’s a kidnapper going to be
        touched on again? Miles is one of my favorite characters and I keep coming back
        to see if he’ll do something great, but he’s always the sly, conniving, lazy
        slacker who would get fired from most normal businesses. Minos is practically
        perfect in every way and that’s annoying, because his presence on the farm
        causes a lot of characters to quarrel. Still, despite his apparent
        “perfection” he never really takes responsibility for the trouble he
        causes. He just reprimands Mora which goes back to her never learning. Finally,
        I’m not really okay with an 18 year old girl with the mind of a 7 year old: I’m
        looking at you Sarah. There’s “cute” and then there’s “mentally
        handicapped.”

         

        But you know what? I like the art, I like the Crest and
        Learning side stories and I’d like to believe the story will get better. It
        does have its high points, I just think that the characters need to be thought
        out a little better.

         

        I’d typed this all out weeks ago, but held back, because I
        figured I’d just be called a troll. For the record: Chalo is awesome, his art
        is awesome, and this is one of 3 web comics I actually read on a weekly basis.

        • Twinsnake

          Sorry to burst your bubble, but Al has no faith in the story. Check out his comments on last week’s page. He only keeps reading the comic to see it crash and burn.

        • Renadt

          There’s a fine line between criticism and just outright bitching. Al is
          on the bitching side of that line. While I may agree that Mora does get a
          lot, she started with nothing and ultimately had to prove herself
          worthy of entering the Festival, which was in no ways an easy feat.
          Alej, yes, worked her ass off for everything she had, but it is not that
          she attacked Mora that she is getting this. It is for putting her
          emotions ahead of her company, and for that reason and that reason alone
          she is facing the “firing squad.” Everyone pays the piper.

        • Uninvited

          He may act perfect but he used to be a mass murdering war criminal!  Waiting for that aspect to be touched on.

    • Twinsnake

      You’re right, I am being arrogant, but only because you’re letting me. Quite frankly, with the replies you’ve been giving me lately, I believe I could beat you with one hand behind my back. When you pointed that calling you jealous was a cop out, that was smart. But now I think that was just a lucky shot. As for your comment… Come on, seriously? What does Mora have to do with this? Okay, this is happening because her farm was targeted. But really, you’re putting the blame on Mora for Alej’s megalomania? Definitely a lucky shot.

      • J-Man

        I wouldn’t say it “burst my bubble,” but upon reading what has been posted after this I’d say you’re correct. I’m going to go back to my previous practice of not reading any comments at all and not posting my own from here on out. I still keep my former opinion of the goings on in the comic, though. I’m sure it’ll sort itself out; it’s stil something I look forward to every week.

    • wackamole

      @Al, come on dude. Would you just give it up about mora? If you don’t like her, just don’t post about her. It’d be great if your post wasn’t a complaint for a change. I bet Chalo is getting sick of all these complaints on a forum ment for art analysis and compliment or CONSTRUCTIVE comments about the comic so he can better it. It probably drives him crazy to see all the fan hate on this site.

    • http://mcclaud.wordpress.com/ McClaud

      I’ll chime in here because I’m new and this is how I see things when it comes to web content. While you do have the right to complain about the way the story is going, the way you could address the subject is rather abrasive and ruthless. You could try another method of communicating your feelings that doesn’t rub other people the wrong way. Remember – this is free content that you pay nothing to view. The writers and the artists do this for themselves as much as they do this for the readers, so it’s up to them how the content is displayed, resolved, controlled, etc. Being rude or constantly complaining about something will only take you so far before they ignore you altogether (and it looks like you may have already invalidated your comments by what appears to be a long standing ”rant” fest). I get you when you say that an artist/writer should be open to comments about their work, because that is the only way to grow. But on the same hand, there’s a fine line between being a whiner and a critic. Maybe you’ve danced across the line in the past – I don’t honestly know – but something has triggered others to go on the defensive. Even I was a little “Okay that could have been worded better” and other people have worded it better down the page. Note: I have given roughly the speech a billion times over because I am a forum moderator for several large forums. Content that is provided for you by someone else is always their property and they may do with it as they will, including ignoring the critics. People have to come to terms with it, even if it’s not the ideal way of handling it. Thank you for participating, but don’t feel like you have to attack the owners when the easiest way to get your point across is to stop supporting them altogether. Or send a nicely worded email/private forum message. Your choice.

      • http://mcclaud.wordpress.com/ McClaud

        Then communicate it with an email or a private message on the forum. Public comments are not always the best way to approach a problem.You gain more attention when you use sugar, and not vinegar. It’s just human nature.

      • Dan

        Well said; Balanced, reasonable and logical. I hope you continue to share with us comment-ers your experience and insight in the future.

      • EternalOne

        Well, that depends on how you view character development. Personally, I think Patches will start her own small farm with her new Resident Spirit and stay as Mora’s rival, but not be so much of a bitch.Mora has made leaps and bounds in personality. Read the start of the comic, then the part where Mora admits Digit is her ‘daughter’. Can you imagine the old Mora being so compassionate?

      • http://2jin.deviantart.com Jin

        Isn’t that a simple matter of opinion though? What you think is good/bad writing and what another person thinks is good/bad writing can be two totally different things. If you can’t come to terms with that, that’s your own problem. Don’t make it everybody else’s.

    • xenofurr

      If you don’t like the way the story is going, don’t read it. Frankly, I find LL to be one of my favorites and like reading any good fiction, I let the story go where it wants without trying to second guess things. In addition to a fine story line, I find the art work to be superb (though I have to agree that Mora’s ears are a bit on the large size!)Keep up the good work is my feedback to the authors and artists.

    • Randy-Darkshade.

      Why are you reading the comic? You clearly hate the comics guts. I can tell this from all your replies here. Either you hate it or you be trollin’.

    • Justin

      BWAHAHAHA!!! Dude, no matter how I look at your posts and replies, I simply find them all hilarious and pointless, like the artist has the time to listen to a troll like you has nothing better to do but sit on their lazy a** in front of a computer and just complain about the world around them and how its not your way. You sound and act like a 6 year who just cries and whines when they don’t get their way. I just suggest you shut and enjoy the ride while you can or get off your lazy a** and get something done like getting a job and or accomplishing something worthwhile in life. Peace.

    • james

      why not just ask chalo for you to help him or suggest a story plot from your creative brain. im sure that he will take it and talk to you about it so he can imporve on making his fans much more satisfied. unless you are saving those ideas for your online comic.

  • http://www.mramp-comics.com MrAMP

    Well this is still not going to end well for her.Also, expanding on what OtakuMan mentioned earlier/predicted, Alej is about to lose everything.  I mean seriously, it’s going to be pretty tough to explain a 750,000 expense per month.

    • CatTEN

      Per week*

      • OtakuMan

        And still think the lack of paragraph breaks in these comments blows.  I mean I want my long winded rants and predictions to be legible!  Sheesh!

    • OtakuMan

      Lose everything?  Oh I didn’t say she was going to lose everything.  On the contrary!  I said it’s going to LOOK like she will lose everything.  But whether by divine Bear-Girl high prime intervention, or a clever ace up Alejandra’s sleeve, she’s going to come out of this on top and in retention of her company, emphasis oh HERS, and be better off for the experience.

      • OtakuMan

        I’d like to imagine her “ace” involves a shotgun and the phrase “WHO’S LAUGHING NOW?!”  Buuuttt… I think I’m stretching on that one.  Still, it would not surprise me if Alejandra had a Batman Gambit prepared for just such an occasion.  She’s too emotional to pull off a Xanatos Gambit, and given that she didn’t know Diana’s grave’s location, that threw Xanatos right out the window.

      • http://www.mramp-comics.com MrAMP

        Thanks for catching that.  What I was referring to was the material, not the spiritual, aspect.  I agree that she will come out from this, but she’ll have to suffer quite a bit first.

        • http://www.mramp-comics.com MrAMP

          But you have to wonder if she deserves it too.

      • MykelTDT

        I think Mora will have very little to do with the outcome. (When was the last time we saw her gain a new ally anyway? Tiare? Kind of? Other than that, it’s been the same group forevers. And she just lost a friend in Rach, I think.) But as for Alej, we saw her spirit’s control jewel earlier, remember? Personal theory: Alej is about to lose almost everything, but with a little trust and magic and friendship and such, will save herself from losing it all.Man, Alej is like designed to be the spiteful uncaring one. Why do people seem to project that onto Mora? If Alej had all Mora did, she’d take it for granted too. That’s the premise of her character. She has no proper values. Or very few, anyway. Ones she tries to ignore, when it’s convenient.

      • Icalasari

        Unless she took out a huge loan from the bank using her company as collateral. Then she is screwed

      • http://mcclaud.wordpress.com/ McClaud

        Well, that’s not necessarily true. Large, influential investors – which make a board - put their money into a company in good faith that the head of the company will make good investments that will bring in a profittable return. They literally “buy” a piece of the company.When the head of the company starts making bad decisions, the board can vote to remove the executive power the head possesses, and if they own a large enough share in the company (more than the head does) they can vote to have her officially ejected from the company i.e. no confidence. Or they can withdraw their funding by selling their share, which can bankrupt a company and destroy it. Doesn’t mean she’ll walk away empty-handed if she’s edged out, because she still gets her shares paid out. This has been happening in corporations for over a century. It’s the reason a lot of companies don’t want to go public – it invites people to come in and buy out a company underneath you. If you invite investors into your corporate enterprise, they become “co-owners” with you, and can lawfully exercise their positions to force you out if you perform badly.

      • Matoyak

        Not true, actually. If there is a Board of Directors, that means it is a publicly traded company…there is no single owner. It IS up to them whether she keeps her job or not. A privately-owned company doesn’t have a BoD.

    • Thor

      750,000 what per week? This matters. 750k Yen is much less than 750k Dollars, which is much less than 750k Pounds. Also $750k in 1850 was much worth more than $750k in 2010, which should be worth much more than $750k in 2275.Costing “750,000″ doesn’t tell us anything if we have no value metric to compare that to. And even then, we still don’t know much. If Alej is a billionaire, then 750k is pocket change.

      • D

        Well, judging from the colour of the word bubble used by one of the investors, 750,000 is still a major amount of money being lost.

  • http://www.facebook.com/?ref=home janiieru

    i dont think she is going to loose everything, remember back then the high prime said that she cared alot about both alej and mora…and its not like anyone can go up against the high prime….and besides this company belongs to alej…its not like she was hired to fill the position, this was her fathers company…and i know alej has this stupid competitive thing going on with mora but i guess you guys can tell by now or idk that alej is not a stupid girl….she brought tht company up n look at it now…..a dumby couldnt do tht.i however dont want her to become apart of moras group honestly, i dont want her to loose everything, its not fair i think if it does happen, i want them to become friends again but i want or would like her to have her own things.

  • Shadowstorm

    If I were to venture a guees, I would say that Patches actions are beginning to catch up to her. While I do prefer Alej to Mora I am still glad some of this is happening. I will be the first to say that seeing her character grow is a great thing and I feel this is another step to that. I think that she will indeed land on her feet from this event, as many have said she is not stupid. But i don’t think it will be as “good” as what some of you may be thinking either. She could very well lose her company , thought not entirely. Boards exist in all publicly trade organizations and thus the owners still have to answer to them since they are the investers, Unless she own the controlling stock in the company, which until “Building an Empire” is completed we won’t know if that is true. What I am seeing, though, is she is experiencing where her grudge is getting her. It is driving her to be more reckless than usual and it is costing her both financially and emotionally. I am by far no fan of Mora, I will be one of the first to say I disagree with many of her actions and her personality is one that I am diametrically opposed too, but even I can tell that Mora has changed deep down, Though it is very hard to see a lot of the time it does shine through on occassion. But since her reappearnce Alej’s actions have seemed more erratic and self-destructive, A sign of the stress that I mentioned before. To me it seems to be showing the old saying  “Revenge blackens the soul”. LIke I said, I think she will land on her feet, but in doing show it may shake her pride and introduce more humility than she would enjoy. I am not saying that she does not deserve what she has worked for, I am saying that the attitude of working just to crush someone else will eventually leave you a husk of humanity. Thus she will need to find out what goal is truly worth working toward. As I see it anyways.

    • Renadt

      I have a feeling she will land on her feet, and she may even come to terms with her past and maybe become a friendly rival to Mora. But do I believe that she will ever work for Mora? Hell no. She’s used to one position, and she worked hard for it.

  • jeremycanine

    they are in deep well good by jobs

  • Foxtrack

    750k a week…… wow thats a lot of personal and equipment cost to be on hold.

  • KNex

    Just when I started to like Patches a bit more. This always happens to the characters I start to like.

    • http://www.furaffinity.net/user/maverikat/ MaveriKat

      It seems to be a staple of SoulKat’s writing.  As soon as a character takes a step forward in development and you might start to like that  person more than Mora, the writing forcibly pulls them two steps back.  On a personal note, I think this is just some clever ploy to get us all to donate more to the side-comics because they do a fantastic job with them.

      • Twinsnake

        I’m going to give you another chance to say something smart. How is Sarah acting like a retard? Is it because she still acts a bit childish? Is it becasue she forgave the nymphs?

        • ViperFreak

          I don’t usually jump into comment debates, but…How is Al saying anything unintelligent? He’s being very cynical, very rude, and a bit arrogant. That being said, what he’s saying isn’t stupid, it’s a matter of personal opinion. It’s one thing to say ‘I disagree’ and another to say ‘You’re an idiot BECAUSE I disagree.’ Which, sir, is precisely what you are doing.

        • Anon

          Yes it because she forgave the nymphs who DECIEVED HER INTO TRYING TO MURDER SOMEONE! You can’t just forgive someone when they did that! Its like being framed for a crime and just excusing the actual criminal because you think he/ she is a misunderstood soul, or a prankster. IT IS WRONG AND ILLEGAL! I bet you can’t tell between good writing and bad writing the way you have your head up your own ass. Read some real material for goodness sake!

  • Aleuuzy

    Looks like a lot of personal opinions about More and Alej going on here o__o; I personally hate both of them, so I guess I’ll stay neutral… lol.

  • C3naris

    750,000 per week? Alej’s getting the sack I suspect.

  • Grenaderbrad

    Some heated debates goin on in the comments.Alej definitely looks like she’s got thing all under control in the first panel.  I’m to worried about her well being.  She’s bad-ass enough to take on the board.PS: I’ve never actually known how to pronounce “Alej” which is why I’ve preferred to use her full name or Patches.  Anyone wanna try to “spell out” the pronunciation for me?

    • Grenaderbrad

      Shank you.  That’s what I thought, but I wasn’t sure.

  • Togot

    It’s very rare that I post anything in forums like this since it’s pointless for the most part, but having kept up with the comic, and the posts, I just need to get a few things off my chest. I agree with Al on many points. I find Mora to be a loathsome protagonist who hasn’t really had to struggle or suffer any negative consequences for her actions, and has been having things fall into her lap since the comic started. The only hint at character growth has been imposed on her by Min and Digit, but she is still a petty individual. I don’t hate the comic for this, I just hate the character. I actually find her more of a villain than Alej. Cold Thorn, from what we’ve been shown in her bonus comic, crawled up the corporate ladder dealing with favoritism and corruption while working very hard to get where she is, while Mora was give an extension by the prime due to favoritism thanks to Min’s connection. She was given Digit for much the same reason. She got Miles through blackmail and used him sexually which is something so loathsome I was offended that she didn’t suffer any real consequences for it. I also feel sympathetic towards Miles, and when Min punched him in the gut, I found it inexplicable that he would still be working for Mora seeing as he no longer has a reason to be there. He broke up with his girlfriend, Min assaulted him, Mora hates him, hell, pretty much everyone hates him, and he hates his job. Staying in such a hostile environment seems very contradictory to his character. I’m not making these observations to insult the writer, but to give the writer feedback in order to give a new perspective on their work. As a writer myself, I know that it’s easy to see the world through your own filter and not realize how it can appear to others. Well, there’s my two cents. Feel free to insult me now.

    • Icalasari

      Wish my reply was half as good as yours. If I scrolled down more, I would have seen the perfect argument before posting a reply XD

    • http://www.furaffinity.net/user/maverikat/ MaveriKat

      I must admit, that was something that bothered me too until I had a moment of fridge brilliance.  I have a feeling it has to do with the fact that, deep down, he’s still trying to help out one lovely rabbit that is both emotionally-confusing and sexually-denying him.  He went back to work at Las Lindas to give her his paycheck so she could save up for college and the amenities faster.  At NO POINT were we told he stopped doing that; if anything the “raise” he got for being put in charge for Rachael is him now getting some money in his own pocket which he plans to put towards refurbishing a plane!  I will also admit, while some may have considered Miles a jerk for expecting Taffy to “put out”, what does it say about Ms. Rudiger to have taken such from him without compensation of any kind?  Unlike his first girlfriend, he actually took time to get to know Taffy AND help her out before trying anything!  So here’s to Miles, possibly the most unsung and under-appreciated determinator in all of Webcomics.

        WOW!  You can actually bitch about someone BESIDES Mora!?  Al, color me impressed!  I was beginning to think you were a one-note wonder.  And you do bring up a good point, yes, he started such a path under false pretenses but there are two facts to be taken into account: first, yes, that is how he knew relationships to be… Hope was a sweet girl, but she AND Mile’s former best friend were not the best examples he could have had for how relationships would be, so he’s basing his actions on what he’s seen “work”.  Second is, his ass-hattery with his fight with Taffy had a change on him… despite not getting what he wanted, has he stopped giving her his money?

    • Twinsnake

      I have to agree, Mora owes much of her progress to the favors she received from Amber. Though I must still question, what has she gotten after the festival? And yes, what she did to Miles had no excuse. I insult Al because, like a badly trained parrot, he can only repeat “she’s a Mary Sue bitch, she’s a Mary Sue bitch”. You picked out examples, made a base to stand on and presented your reasons. I don’t agree with you, but you present a good solid argument. That I can respect.

      • Twinsnake

        And here you are snapping at a hyperbole. Although I guess I could’ve also said “This is awful writing, this is awful writing”. You seem to be trained to say that phrase as well.

        • Renadt

          Stop bitching. If you really feel that way, add to the convo. All bitching does is shuts people off.

        • Renadt

          You know the thing about truths, and that is what warps, masks, or defines it- perspective. Your view, however, is pitiful and you my friend are now merely bitching at this point. So, unless you actually have something to add to the convo, stop bitching.

    • Twinsnake

      As for Miles working in such a hostile enviroment. I really need to counter that. Let’s see how the cast gets along with Miles. I won’t include Randall or Idward since they only just arrived. Digit’s off the list, I haven’t seen any interaction between Miles and herself. Let’s start with Sarah; after the advice he gave her at the mall it’s pretty certain she has a positive opinion on him. Taffy; the break up went badly but do you really think she’s the type to hold a grudge, let alone hate someone. At most, she’d feel awkward around him. As for Minos, he punched Miles because of what he did to Taffy. You have to admit, dumping your girlfried because she won’t put out is pretty low. A questionable form of punishment perhaps, but I wouldn’t say he hates him. Now Mora; okay, obviously she doesn’t have the highest opinion on him, but he’s in charge of engineering, upkeeping of Digit’s network. That’s a pretty important job. If Mora did hate him, wouldn’t she give him the worst jobs and make things really miserable for him. At the very least she would jump at the first chance to fire him, like skipping on the job to watch a show. And finally Rachel; I think she just doesn’t like anybody. Her paranoia you know. 

      • Stislov

        Taffy never behaved like Miles’s girlfriend.  Not putting out?  There’s nothing wrong with that.  Actively avoiding your boyfriend all the damn time?  Yeah, not classy.

  • BreatheDeep

    I See too much butthurt in these posts just deal with it okay, your not the ones writing the so shut up and enjoy the ride bros.

    • ArjayCreyo

      Uh, hate to break it to you, but it doesn’t work that way. When you put out a creative product for the public to see, you are, by default, opening yourself to criticism. It’s not good for an artist (be it a writer, painter, musician, etc…) to be shielded from criticism; without it, there would be virtually no artistic progress. I know from experience, I wouldn’t even be at the point I am in my writing without someone telling me what I’m doing wrong.

      • http://mcclaud.wordpress.com/ McClaud

        That’s true. But on the same ticket, when you provide free content to the Web, it still belongs to you and you can do whatever you please with it. You can take criticism or you can delete it. And that’s the right of the website owner to do as they please. Al has other options and better ways to communicate his displeasure and I’ve seen other people on this very page do a better job than Al does. On that point, I can see why people are frustrated with Al and his comments. They are just reacting to his frustration with frustration because – in how I perceive it – directly attacked the authors without actually giving any good, critical feedback. But yes, it doesn’t help that people are equally bad at communicating their frustration at Al in the same manner.

        • ArjayCreyo

          You DO realize I said nothing about the guy, right? I’m not going to dive to his defense; Just because two people share an opinion doesn’t mean that they agree with each other’s methods. I’m inclined to agree with you, actually; I can see WHY people are constantly miffed at him. The only point of my original reply was to note that not everybody who points out flaws are butthurting trolls.

        • ArjayCreyo

          Annoyingly, my reply to this somehow vanished into subspace when I hit submit. Anyways… I wasn’t jumping to Al’s defense; I’m with you, I think the hostility is unnecessary. It’s just a huge pet peeve of mine when somebody pulls the “you’re not the writer” card as a defense, especially if they lump in anyone who says anything negative, no matter how contructive the comment is, as being “butthurt” over it.

        • ArjayCreyo

          Third time’s a charm, maybe (this thing has eaten my replies twice now.) I’m not defending Al, heavens no, I think the hostility from BOTH sides is definitely unneeded. I was just noting that criticism doesn’t equal “butthurt.” The “you’re not the author, so you shouldn’t say anything” argument is one of my top three pet peeves, so I felt the need to explain what’s wrong with it, that’s all.

        • ArjayCreyo

          Well, let’s hope reply number five gets through… Anyways, I think you misunderstood me. I wasn’t jumping to Al’s defense; I agree with you, the hostility is really unnecessary (from EITHER side). It’s just that, as a writer, people who say “you’re not the author so don’t complain” and equate any and all criticism with “butthurt” is a massive pet peeve of mine, so I felt the need to explain the difference.

  • Sirk

    This is the first time I’ve ever posted anything on a forum of any sort. I personally never really like Alej until recently, when she actually started showing some compassion and some feeling in her life. And I know Mora isn’t normally the “nicest” character there is, and that she always seems to get her way, but she works hard for it at least, she deserves most of what she gets, this includes everything bad that happens to her. As for Miles…Miles is Miles, enough said. And the reason the writers and Chalo put these forums on here is so that they can hear your opinions about the changes in their characters…it’s just the way it is…so stop complaining about other people complaining (yes I know I’m complaining…for the most part) and just get on with your lives…no one cares, if you wanna complain about the way a character’s been made into, go for it, that’s why the forums are here…so people can make an influence on what the writers put into the comic.now I doubt you will hear from me again for a while I don’t normally post on forums and probably wont for a while again…thank you for paying attention…that is if you actually read my rant this far…

  • Leo Murat

    this aint gonna end well :<

  • J-Man

    I’m pretty sure she’s about to unlock her nano-droid thing and turn things around.

  • Y’Boocs

    Okay everybody! I will say this only once because I’m pretty sure that it wouldn’t matter either way. All of you people that are against Mora have a right to loathe or hate her. And those of you that are with her you also have a right. But arguing over and over again during this arc is annoying as H-E-double hockey sticks. I mean c’mon man. This is the same type of fake shit that i see on YouTube. And to let you all know I sorta do wanna see Mora and Patches become friends again (But not this way [And maybe a little bit more than just friends {That would be "MY" fan service}]). And If you try to argue with me on me saying this is annoying I will not respond on the fact that I would be a hypocrite. I would be a hypocrite if I responded to an argument against what I have said about you guys arguing. And also I’m pretty sure Chalo will not let Patches lose her empire over her feelings for Mora’s mother, Chalo would lose his fan base for this webcomic by maybe 55%. And even if Chalo didn’t care if that many fans left. Chalo’s webcomic, Chalo’s ending. And that is all people.

    she should fire the board she has the power

    • Twinsnake

      She can’t, they don’t work for her. A board of directors is made out of people outside the company who invested into it with the promise of getting a profit. And if they invest enough, they get to vote on major desitions. Another of their functions is to review the CEO’s performance, which they are doing right now.

  • http://www.furaffinity.net/user/maverikat/ MaveriKat

    Well, I’ll say this much… I love the Gendo Ikari pose Alejandra has in the first panel.  Anything else… well… as mom taught me, “If you don’t have anything nice to say, don’t say anything at all.”

  • Starstorm

    I’m an extreme lurker.  I’ve been reading this comic for at least five years now, and I’ve popped up on the forums a few times.  I haven’t been posting in forever because of my work and stuff..  But I digress.  I feel the need to speak up because I’m just disgusted with all the flame wars and ranting and hate being spewed on this comic every week.  Seriously guys?  You have nothing better to do with your lives than to constantly bash and rant about characters on a WEB COMIC???  You’re completely taking the fun out of this.  Who the hell gives a shit about how much you hate Mora or how much you love Rachael.  If you’re going to complain, you could at least be mature about it and have a decent adult conversation but instead you’re freaking out on each other over the tiniest of details that quite frankly make you look like a tool.  To me, your ranting just means that you care WAAAAAYYY too much and need a break from the internet for a few days.  Take a step back from the keyboard please.  Get a life.  You really hate the main character of this comic so much, then write a damn book about it somewhere else.  The authors are not going to follow your orders.  You don’t sign their paychecks.  Yes they can listen to your opinions, but you’re “opinions” sound more like constant whining and bitching than actual criticism.I’m not even going to bother stating who my favorite characters are either because I’m just going to be flamed on for having a personal preference that you don’t agree with.  GOD FORBID someone love Mora BECAUSE she’s a bitch.    But yeah, my point is, I don’t enjoy coming here to read the comic anymore ever since this stupid reply thing was added.  I don’t CARE how much you can’t stand the main character, and how ever damn plot point means she’s “getting her way”.  Take your baby rants and shove them.  Just read the damn comic!!!!  Don’t like!?  LEAVE.  I’m sooo sick of coming here once a week to read a comic and get an insane wall of bitching instead.  I’m so done with this.  I can’t believe I’m even wasting my time with this reply.  I’m just going to start a huge debate blah blah blah blah.  Seriously.  IT’S A WEB COMIC.  GET OVER YOURSELVES.    

    • http://mcclaud.wordpress.com/ McClaud

      Well, it’s a good example of why people are reacting the way they do to you. You don’t exactly have any diplomatic skill when it comes to writing a criticism. That won’t translate well in the real world, either, if you approach people with a rather blunt, condenscending attitude just because you feel something is lacking in their work. Opinions are opinions – pro something or against something.

      • http://www.furaffinity.net/user/maverikat/ MaveriKat

        Well said.  I personally keep coming back because I have high hopes for the main story AND I can be honest in that adore the side-stories the group works on.  It’s the side-stories that make me realize, yes, this IS a talented group, and I hope to see them pull some of that magic they seem to have back to the main page… for now, I’ll be content that at least “Las Lindas” isn’t anywhere as suicide-inducing not depressing-as-all-get-out like “Bittersweet Candybowl”.

  • Loke

    Shts…It will require a quite lot of money…hahah in my times everything was easier anyway. Those guys look pretty dangerous, be careful Alejandra, watch your back, you can be cold and a potential enemy but you are nothing without your minions…and if your superiors take you down soon you will kiss the ground. Once again, a bad step means a backstab…fool.

  • rumblepurr

    I like the use of Tootsie’s ear position to convey her discomfort at being placed on the spot. As to the situation at hand, the only way this could be construed to give Mora allies is the proverb: ” the enemy of my enemy is my friend.” I can see the board taking over the project and going ahead with the building… Alejandra will have to have some cloout to stop them… Intersting twist, Chalo. Thanks for another good page.gb

    • Twinsnake

      Good observation. A lot of people, including myself, were too focused on what would happen to Alej to think about what the board would do next. And not to kick a man when he’s down (though it’s a lot of fun) Al’s mad because, with all his knowledge and deductive abilities, he didn’t think about this either.

    • Beta

  • Dea

    Well Al, criticize is one thing but blatant attacking is another,
    considering you only read to find things to complain about i really
    wonder where you find any joy in life. Personally although the story is
    rifle with Mary-sue archetypes, predictable twists, simple 2d character
    personality’s, and a lack of any major plot development, i still read
    it, and i keep my mouth shut. If you have such an issue offer criticism,
    not complaints, and all i see is a whole lot of whining because ‘waaaaah my car wreck is getting to shitty for me to read’ or ‘waaaaah quit attacking the fictional cartoons i like.’ Both sides in this really need to grow up a bit, it is a comic, free of charge, put out weekly by a guy, who despite all the complaints, keeps doing it because he wants to, be thankful you get your train wreck or your Mary-sues because it all rides on the will of a single man to get put out week after week after week. If you hate the comic, stop reading, it is as simple as that, if you love the comic, support the people who make it, but either way coddling or complaining get nothing done they just take up space. I don’t know if anyone will read this, or if any of the LL staff will but as much as i hate to say it SK and Id need to really take a good hard look at the direction the comic is going, as the writers they really need to realize they are reusing the same plot for the development of the story and that really need to stop.

    Those big looming pillars behind the board members remind me of that in Evangellion.

  • Otterpoet

    I think what some people are forgetting is that this storyline is all happening in the space of a single day – only a few hours, if that.  As Toots pointed out, the financial losses haven’t started yet.  But they certainly will.  This is reality-check time for Patches.  She’s put this plan in motion and with that goes consequences.  Randal-guilt or no, she either takes responsibility for the course of action she has taken… or bucks under the strain.  She can’t have her cake and eat it too.  That’s what should be determined in the next page, and criticizing before that character-moment before it even happens is sort of premature.   And no.  Patches isn’t being arbitrarily punished because she’s the antagonist (she’s not a villain, by any stretch).  She’s simply dealing with people that respond to her actions.  It’s why I enjoy her plot-lines far more than the others.

    Several Things I’d like to say:1.) People, stop having your arguments here. Go blog about it somewhere else where the fans don’t have to hear about it.2.) Whoever this ‘Al’ guy is, nobody wants to hear you put others down. Take it somewhere else, please.3.) I love how Toots was drawn in the fourth panel. Her expression looks genuine, the anatomy is great, and the entire panel just looks very nice. Well done! =)

  • jwink2236

    Wow I come to look at the new page and all I see are 3 year olds having a hissy fit and need to be sent to bed without supper……I have followed this comic since the beginning….Since Mora first set hoof out of the farm house door all the way to this eventful meeting of the board of evil.  I do not support any one character than another so that I DONT form opinions and become biased.  I love all the characters and LOVE how they are developing I do hope like every one else that Patches and Mora become friends again…..I should rephrase that…..I dont think they ever really “lost” their friendship.  Or do we forget the page where Patches lost control of the robot crane and it started to crush Mora how Patches felt pure terror…..Their friendship is still there just buried under a few bad memories.And to those of you that says everything goes in Mora’s way and how things are just given to her.  Things may go her way….but at a real price at times.  Like when Digit faded away….I thought I was going to cry at that point….and Mora thought she lost EVERYTHING at that point the farm was in ruins the house dying…..but she WORKED hard to get everything back up and running no one gave her any hand outs….no one came and rebuilt the farm for her she and her FRIENDS did it all by themselves.  And yes Mora can be a witch at times but she has said before to Minos that she is sorry for how she was treating him and others….so look at that she does have a heart….oh wait WE ALREADY KNEW THAT!….

    • Tearahk

      thank you for basically speaking my mind :D And another thing that goes with what you said: If Mora didn’t “learn from her experiences” like some of the others here think, why is Digit becoming more powerful? Its like Amber said, the nicer Mora is to her friends the stronger Digit will get. As far as Iv seen in the comic, Digit can now basically run everything with her mind and she can teleport into space! That’s pretty powerful, wouldn’t you say?

    Ok. I think I’ll stop reading this comic. These arguments are pointless and I don’t like most of the characters.

    • Rumblepurr

      Do not stop reading the web-comic because of the commentary section. Just read the comic. If you wish to leave a comment, leave it for Chalo and talk about the panels and the characters; and leave the rest alone…

  • thispersonhere

    Out of all the katbox comics, imo, Anthronauts seems to be one of the best. It is updated saturday without fail (I like the stories of imew and TINA but they are hardly updated even when donations are paid) and it has the most intresting characters and it follows one storyline and unlike Las Lindas where stories jump about a bit. I do like Draconia too as the writer seems to progress and listen to praise and criticism alike. LL jumps too much and imo a bit too much characters which ends up making the comic jump from one place to the other.

    • jwink2236

      @thispersonhere….I do agree that LL does jump around in story a bit but I see it as they are trying to tell a story of all the players in that story at the same time, so it does seem like its jumping around but its not really.@max_black0….So you are going to let the negative ones wanting to troll for the sake of trolling cause you not to want to read the comic.

    • Twinsnake

      I think you’ve hit the hammer in the head there. Giving each character their turn in the spotlight slows the story down. This is probably why so many people claim there is no character growth, because it’s too slow for them to percieve.

      • Blue-Starr

        I think you meant ‘hit the nail on the head’ lol. But I understand you’re opinion. Good point.

    Okay, I’ve been reading through some of the comments and I have to agree that Al, your being an idiot. If you hate Mora so much stop reading the comic. I mean seriously she is the main character and most of the time the main character gets what they want but with the construction is WASN’T just about Mora it was about it was about how Randal didn’t want Patches to ruin Diana’s view. Also the writer does his best he can, have you ever imagined how hard it can be to be a comic writer? Pretty f’in hard! So lay off man!

    This is gonna suck for Alej.  Is she gonna lose everything?  Doubtful.  But this’ll probably hit her real hard (both in her checkbook and her pride).  Also…the above arguments…I’d rather not get into it.  However, maybe it’s just me, but it feels like some peeps just haven’t read the comic from the beginning to get a firm grasp of some of the characters.

  • Velen

    I sent my concerns to Chalo in an email. I didn’t really expect any acknowledgement or reply from him, but how can I to begin with? The guy probably gets tons of Emails.So I’ll say what I want to say about Las Lindas here…As a fan.Personally, I love LL and think it has a lot of great potential as a story, but the way it is now, in my personal opinion. It’s going to stay static. The writing could be better, and the story could be better. Hell. Even though I love the comic, I think even the characters could be better.As others have explained, the characters don’t really seem to learn from their own mistakes. Learning from pratfalls is an essential part of character development, just like having things revealed to characters is.For example. The incident where Digit nearly “died” (I say “die” in quotes because of the spiritual-mechanical nature of her being) should’ve had a very big impact on Mora, such a huge shock would instill a big change in someone’s personality…That doesn’t happen here.-and on past occasions the characters have had big (though not as big as Mora’s recent one with Digit and her employees) pratfalls, but never seem to learn from them either. This isn’t good for character development and will only get Las Lindas so far as a web comic.While I love this comic. Some changes need to happen to it for it to be truly great and make it stand out on it’s out. It has the tools, the resources…Everything is there, Chalo just needs to use those to make it happen.

  • HC

    Heh. And I thought the ability to leave comments directly on the comic page would be a bad idea. *derp face*

  • http://tiiara.deviantart.com Tiiara

    Everyone seems to forget we’re talking about Alej here. She won’t get fired that easily and she wouldn’t be where she is today if she couldn’t turn this thing around. You people have to be more creative. Just look at the Gendo Ikari pose … even if this was unexpected, she wouldn’t be Alejandra Coldthorn if she’d bow down to the board that easily.

  • Road Rocket

    I have to agree on the Mora-hate, to be honest. I’ve followed the comic since the beginning too, and not once have I been able to bring myself to like her. Yeah, maybe she did have some warm moments, but for the most part I just see her as a selfish bitch with no real development. I realize she’s the main character, but that doesn’t really mean shit, sorry to say. Just because someone is the main character doesn’t mean he/she should always get their way. In fact, a TRUE main character goes through the most development and learning experiences. A “main character” is supposed to be the “main point of interest.” This is the character we watch change and twist with what’s going on around them before our very eyes. What interest do we get when the character never changes, never learns, and never becomes anything more than “LOL THE GOOD GUY!” Alej, on the other hand, though having less screentime, has received much more development. And yet, she’s seemingly about to lose everything. So I guess actual hard work and dedication is a villainous thing and should be punished? I call bullshit. Yes, it’s “just a webcomic,” but that’s absolutely no excuse for what really is kind of poor writing. I love the comic, otherwise I wouldn’t even bother typing this comment up. I want to see it get better. You may all proceed with attacking me.

  • Reaper

    chalo all i have to say is i love ur comic so far i enjoy it because its funny and keeps me entertained i was reading some of the comments about what people said on the comic and everything. I myself think that some of them should just shut up cause i find it anoying that all they do is fight amongst themselves a bit . But for the reason i made this post i wonted to say your makeing a wodnerful comic i jsut sat and read from the very first comic up to this one through the past week or 2 when i had free time and i find this to be a wonderful comic and id like to say thank you for takeing the time to work on this each week for us to read. I also apologize if any of you think i have horrible typing deal with it lol.

  • Lime

    O.o so much character drama… and I don’t mean in the story but in the comments. lolPeople are allowed to like whatever character/s they like and dislike whatever character/s they don’t like… people just need to get over that. Of course you’re allowed to defend your favorite characters too… but there is no reason to be rude to someone who doesn’t like them. Furthermore, to like something doesn’t mean you can’t see it’s flaws or even point them out.Many good stories out there have Mary Sues, there is even such a thing as a well developed Mary Sue. Learning how to make rounded characters instead of flat characters is not an easy trait to obtain and can take a writer years to develop the skill. That’s not to say they still can’t come up with good stories, as there are many famous and well written tales that contain flat characters. I’m not saying the writer of Las Lindas isn’t experienced, I can’t say that as I know nothing about him/her/them…. but what I am saying is that over time the character development may get better.

  • truekaiser

    looking back through the archives i have to agree on the following.1.Mora is a author avatar / Mary sue. Little hardship is given to her yet she gets everything and learns nothing.2.This smells of set up for alej to live with mora, the way corps work that board could easily kick her out with little or nothing simply for not doing something profitable. 3. The lack of people snooping around looking for Sarah or Rachel after the place became famous speaks of a unwillingness of the author to put his characters in ‘bad’ situations. They are supposed to be fugitives, Rachel for kidnapping and both for a hinted at stream of minor thefts.suggestions to fix this:1. With the impending share holder buy-out of alej’s company, any new ceo or the board themselves would not be interested in ‘grinding’ las lindis into the ground. they would simply use their lawyers and the large amount of capital behind them to buy her out lock stock and barrel as they would want to get something profitable out of this. this would solve problem 1 by making all that has happened so far just a set up for a fall. It would also cause / force character development for all parties involved. A bonus point or two if that also causes Rachel to go to them thinking now they would be a better party to leach off of.2. simply don’t have her think of it as a option, her character could use some time being stuck as a low end wage slave.3. above all else have someone show up looking for the two. if sarah is of as you hinted at then someone ‘has’ to be looking for her still after all this time. Not to mention people looking for both Sara and Rachel for all the minor thefts..

    WHOA! Don’t overreact people and furries/ furry lovers!  don’t be mad, you all mad aren’t you? Haha your mad. relax.I know Mora isn’t the most perfect gal around but i’d say she fits in the category of “some” women who use their feminine wiles to get what they want. and sometimes people who lucky like this DO get away with it so it’s not always happily ever after. and sometimes when they meet the right person, eventually they will learn to change for the better. but not right away it’s just like how it is in relationships. We can see Minos isn’t having an easy time in making Mora become open minded such as when he tried to be an artist and she didn’t accept or support Minos in doing it. Where as Racheal  seems to be in Sync with Minos. although things do not go according to plan or exactly the way we want it, isn’t it a little more interesting that way? it’s the unexpected and the storyline will go the way the author sees fit, unless of course the author is lost and he or she decides to take suggestions from the fans.like i definetly desired to see Racheal and Miles interact with each other from the start of Sarah suggesting Miles to be there for Racheal back in the Mall arc. and bam a couple of pages later, we see miles and Racheal checking out a fight instead of a movie.I like some of the fan service and the story isn’t perfect, but since they are characters i for one am one of the many viewers who want to know more about em and see what happens next, and end up connecting with them. even the ones that i don’t relate to or whom relate to one of my friends such as Vix and angel.

    Man this ”Al” is the exact definition of a troll! He is ruuining commenting for everyone! BTW for anyone who says ‘dont comment then’ thats not right!!! We all want to share our opinions and bcuz one person is ruining it doesnt mean evry1 shuld leave!!! IF only RayWJ was here…

    Frame 1 oddly reminded me of this.

  • Sigh.

    Al,for awhile now I seen you bitch and moan about how Mora is a mary sue and always gets what she wants. She is the main character in the story,I mean who is gonna write a story about the main character always losing,not getting anything,and going no where. She needs to get stuff or things or even do things to have this comic evolve. Plus.i’d like to see you do better. She has a comic up,a well known successful one. Meaning,her stories are good,I know mora gets basically everything,and at times it gets annoying,but also makes sense in the end when you take a step back and look at the story as a whole. I mean I like how you and other people get mad because the “evil character” if you want to call Ajej that, getting this bad luck and assuming she will be buddy buddy with Mora just because she is getting into finical problems doesn’t mean she is gonna “magically” be friends. It might be a door to a new plot or story to help along.  I find it it quit funny you assume things when there is absolutely no sign of any of this happening in the near future. So the next time you decide to bitch and moan about this comic,go find somewhere else and quit wasting peoples time. This is a great comic and the plot falls from great to good at times but still in the end great.  : )

    I think Patches is gonna take a pretty big hit, personally, but she won’t go under because of it. 750,000 per week sounds a bit high to me, but it seems like a fair number, however. I feel bad for Tootsie here because she’s in the hot seat more than Patches is right now. I don’t blame the mouse for being nervous. I’d be nervous, too if I was her.Also, for those of you who say that Mora’s been getting everything handed to her: SHUT UP. Do you realize the hell she’s gone through recently? Let’s see, nearly losing Digit, almost losing her farm and home, and her relationship problems with Minos (which from what I’m guessing are working out just fine), and her place is also home for Idward, Rachel, Sarah, Randal, Miles, Taffy, Minos and Digit. Her mother is buried on the farm, too, and Mora wants to make it the way it used to be, not just for herself but for Diana as well. Not to mention that deep down she still wants to work it out with Alej. For those of you saying that she’s too much of a bitch, back off. She’s also a business owner and sometimes to get stuff done you have to be a bitch to people if only to get through their thick skulls, like Rachel. Mora’s had to fight tooth and nail to get what she has now and she’s fighting now to keep her farm and she’s also competing with Alej, too, in case some people forgot.How has Mora paid for her actions? She slept with Miles to get back at Minos (and nearly lost him for it), she fought Rachel which distracted her from Digit and Sarah stealing Digit’s little home, which caused the fire that toasted the kitchen and nearly killed Digit, the farm was in debt as it was and Mora’s threatened to kill Alej, if only for a roof over her head and meal every day, Mora is probably counting her lucky stars for what she has now. Also, if you don’t want to read this anymore, there’s always the back button on your browser.

    Sorry for the double post, but for some odd reason it won’t show my responses to Al, so I’ll just do it here. Mainly, Al, you no longer tread the fine line between criticism and bitching. No, the Good Ship Criticism has long since set sail from your port. Now you’re just bitching. Also, This is not because Alej went against Mora. It is because Alej made a poor choice. I hate to break it to you, but shit happens in a sitch like this. Deal with it. And so, what if they became friends? What does that mean to you? I don’t ever think that Alej will ever work at Las Lindas, but she may create a sort of alliance with Mora, or maybe a friendly competitor.

  • Superyo302

    Okay, I took the time to read a couple of the comments on some of pages, as well as several reviews of the webcomic and the bad webcomic wiki page, and here’s what I have to say about the comic itself and its fans. This webcomic tells the story of the emotional and financial troubles of an anthropomorphic cow with enormous tits trying to live her life as a farmer, with the help of several other well endowed furries, male or female, of all sorts.
    Are you really trying to take this series seriously? Are you really trying to convince yourself this entire story either makes sense or should require any sort of emotional engagement from the reader? Do you really feel compassion or empathy for a mary-suesque protagonist who fits this physical description?
    If so, then for Art’s sake, stop lying to yourself. The webcomic’s most popular story arc is called “Breasts are the best”. It’s most popular character is a rabbit (mainly because it’s the only furred animal that actually displays a hairy design). The entire cast is nearly entirely composed of female characters, with each one having a flawless physique. The protagonist’s first move at the beginning of the story is to dress up like a whore and trick stupidly written characters into working for her. And the author’s biggest project yet was to make a chart where each and every female character compares breasts sizes.
    If you still haven’t figured out what I’m talking about, let me spell it out for you: This webcomic is SOFT-CORE FURRY PORN. It’s nothing more than wanking material.
     
    And if you’re actually wondering why I’m still reading it, I’ll tell you the same reason why every one else is still reading it: because I absolutely and unconditionally LOVE huge tits that defy gravity.

    I find it utterly amusing that people are using the comments page for their own personal little war, instead of actually using it what it was inteded for.  The trollers, character defenders, and general haters really need to take a step back, realize that what they’re posting has absoulely NO value on a “comments page” at all.  If you hate the character values and development, then go watch GI Joe cartoons from the past.  IMHO, anything that isn’t a true critique of either the artwork, or dialog in the CURRENT PAGE needs to be scrapped.  Saying “this character’s background sucks!” is a statement about the ENTIRE comic, not the current one.  So, trollers need to back off if they’re just gonna sit there day after day and find something they think is chronically wrong, and go post it in the forums.  Same with the character defenders.  Take your petty squables elsewhere.  I’m sure it’s hard for the artist and writers to come in, check the comments, and read dribble after dribble about rampant and incoherent nonsense that has nothing to pertain to the current page.

    Well… It could be that I just pop in from time to time, I’m actually GLAD to see Alej’s fat in the fire, so to speak. The way, I saw it, she simply got herself into power for the sole purpose of taking away what Mora held so dear, and by doing so, crushing her. Everytime she’s appeared, she’s always had something up her sleeve, or pulled some bitch move to take something away from her… Again, this may be because I simply pop in every so often, or just because I’m that kind of guy who enjoys seeing the protagonist on top- not saying they’re perfect, but it’s THEIR story. So, having just said all of that, I’ve always liked Mora better. And as for Alej, I’ve been waiting for this to happen since the Festival.

  • Tearahk

    I love these comments, they get so heated ^_^

    • Worenx

      I’m mixed about heated comments. I mean, it shows that there is a
      definitely love of the comic, but it also shows the darker side of
      things…

      First of all, it’s SK and Chalo’s comic, it’s up to them how they choose
      to develop characters, which character gets what, how they get it, and
      all the stuff that goes with the territory. Second, not everyone’s going
      to like the main or central character. Ever watch “Naruto”? Well, I
      hate the main character, Naruto. It’s just how it goes, folks. Third,
      opinions are like 900 pound gorillas; they’re not going anywhere unless
      they want to. Let Al have his totally rational disliking of Mora and
      stop whining and just read the damn comic.

      BTW, this not directed at you in any way, Tearahk. :D

    I think people are taking this a bit too seriously she wont lose everything im sure she has a plan and if not i doubt she’ll end up on the streets. (Its more fun if you just roll with a comic then its more fun when you see what happens, if you guess every little thing that you think is going to happen : 1, your right and the comic is less exciting for you next week or 2. it doesn’t happen the way you want and then your disappointed because you think it would have been better a different way. Have fun think of things that might happen just don’t go over board. You’ll enjoy a good comic more that way.)

      I tend to expect the worst, being somewhat a pessimist, then either think “knew it… v_v” when it happens, or get pleasantly surprised when it’s not as bad as I feared. And then something at the end of the chapter or page tends to set me up for expecting the worst again next time and partially dreading the next installment.

  • mikkel

    It is interesting, watching the harsh words dance back and forth, and no matter what anyone says, good or bad … but it seems two things have been missed.First – and this is a big IF – for one shouldn’t count plot points until they are hatched – one can’t help but be amused about the statements concerning the possibility of Mora and Alej “magically” becoming friends.Unless, of course, in a lemony snicket kind of way “magically” somehow means having the ground work for a reconciliation having been set up months – perhaps even years – prior.  IF it happens its actually a possible progression of natural consequences. It’s actually been pretty obvious – at least to me – and well, the bitter truth may have to be realized – IF there is a reconciliation, it may annoy some folks to see Alej act like a real person instead of a more comfortably accessible anti-Mora stereotype.And everyone but one missed the real tragedy in this scene … Tootsie, her words damning Alej’s action in but a few simple heartbeats, right in front of her.How Alej handles this, how it effects their relationship, that will be interesting to see play out.

Its all a matter of corporate investment. they think that her project and its untimely termination were not in the best interest of the company.

    Ok, here we go. Al, i been rooting for you for a long time. I appreciate your arguements because typically, they are done very well. (Even the rants). I am Mora fan… (And about to be publicly assassinated) I agree Mora can be a bi#@h but so can Alej. Alej’s only goal since the beginning of this series, exception of the bonus arcs, has been to get back at Mora. She has focused her resources on it and has been thwarted by people with less and more power then her. As to the other characters, i enjoy this comic because it is so much like real life. I know people just like each one of these characters and several of them are in positions similar to the character in this comic they are like. I am not going to champion any particualr character, but i do have to say, give them a chance. People surprise me everyday, and so do the people in this comic. I thought Mora was going to call the cops on Rachal. She didn’t, yes she did take some revenge but it could have been so much worse. Also, Alej backing off, surprised me. And finally, there is subtle and pronounced character growth happening here. Just look for it, you may not like how a character is growing but they are growing. You all seem to be complaining because things aren’t going your way. Maybe, instead of being acidic you could try being constructive. offer genuine advice on how to develop a character instead of just bashing them for whatever reason.

    It honestly scares me just how much venom – and effort wasted – that one man can put into complaining about something to a complete absence of any sympathetic audience. As a non-poster, it absolutely baffles me why this entire thread has gone on this long, or why it even exists in the first place.

      I don’t like how you furries out there include the words “cute and innocent” to describe an anthromorphic character’s appearance based on how practically attractive they are, it’s just way to chorny
