[Salamandra] Blackberry Sage Sakki I looooove Mana. I like his somewhat questionable and rediculously over priced clothing line. I like his music. I like his visual kei outfits. And I like that he's a huge dork on the inside :B However, that does not mean I would point at him and say 'Dress exactly like this!' if someone wants to know how to dress lolita. Mana is all fine and dandy, but the misconception seems to be Mana wore it- there fore it is Lolita. ]: All Lolita clothes are rediculously overpriced... Some of Mana's things are more expensive, yes ($850 coat, anyone?!) but for the most part his skirts and dresses are just as expensive as Baby or some other popular brand. Eh? It's $200-$300 a dress...it's like that with most fancy dresses lolita or not. I think they're priced fine...but I guess to some that's high. =/
I've never seen a coat over $400 though really... ^^"While Manas stuff is pretty, it is more expensive than other brands.

Mana can suck a c**k for ruining my favourite colour in the eyes of every other lolita ever.
Other than that I have little opinion of him.

Other than that Baby's most expensive things are the hard to find stuff on Y!Japan while on their website I think 250 for the most expensive while Moitie goes for about 100 more than that.

Back to the topic..... Medium blue. Many a loli feels you can't wear blue unless it's baby blue because it's 'inelegant', then further their argument that it's inelegant because of Mana. It urks me that some people are so closed minded a 'badly dressed band member' can influence their opinion on an entire colour. I fail to see how it is off topic, since you asked for others perspectives on Mana. That is my perspective.

Back to the topic..... My, my, that's almost as rude as some person deleting somebody's posts without warning, wouldn't you agree? You did ask for peoples perspectives, so it's perfectly on topic.

-...quand le soleil sera couché dans ton âme froide.- I neither approve nor disapprove, but there has been much bigger wanks in this dear guild and hasn't been spotted and was just allowed to grow, this being one of the smaller wanks in the scale.
Its the fact of the larger wanks being left alone that I disapprove of.

This isn't a discussion about his clothing collection. I'd say her first comment, and that second comment are both on topic, since she was talking about his signature blue, not his clothing line. That came later and wasn't started by that particular comment anyway. Also, even if she were talking about his clothing lines, that's still on topic--clothing is part of how you perceive someone. =/
And she's right. Some people do get really nose-in-the-air over dark to medium blue dresses because of the fact that it is so very Mana-esque. Especially when said blue is mixed with black [which generally looks weird without Mana-influence anyway, but. Yeah].
[edit]: Oh. I hope you were directing that part about clothing collections at the other discussion, since ... she wasn't a part of it. And you might want to modify your tone a little bit in your posts, it's coming across to me as rather rude.

If you see, or have, a problem with another users actions, and you don't think its being handled, pm myself, or another member of the crew. I'm glad for the heads up when people do spot them first. If you think that isn't fast enough my im and email is listed, as I do check both at the very least while mom is having lunch or the older kids get home from school.

I was directing that comment mostly at the others, yes. I made a mistake in her discussion of the colour blue. Although I wasn't especially excited about the term "suck a c**k."
I'd like to know which posts you want me to edit, though. I think I've been perfectly civil in all of them.

Since it wasn't directed at someone who was involved, it came across to me as dismissive and rude. It might have been better to explain that you meant the other participants. As for the "suck a c**k" comment. .:shrug:. It was blunt and crude, it was meant to be.
Not saying I agree with it, but you could have asked her to rephrase it rather than the response you did give.

I understand your point. However, a rather large something just came up and I don't wish to argue with you right now.
