None of these are “made”, they are conversions of scanned players from 2k21. That being said Gabriel was scanned so a conversion is possible.
Obviously what he meant was "make a conversion of Wenyen". Don't be so literal with your English bruh lol

There’s a word for “make a conversion”. It’s called “convert”, ya know the verb...
It may seem like semantics and users who do conversions are a huge asset, but it shouldn’t overshadow the talents of those who actually make the faces from scratch, modder or otherwise. Credit where credit is due.

There's no point if the correct word is "make", "make a conversion", or "convert". We all know here that this is a conversion thread.
There's no point also of comparing his works to those who make cyberfaces from scratch (which i believe you are one). Totally two different things. I can feel some sort of intimidation from you. No need to bring that here.

There is a difference between “making” a Cyberface and “converting” an already created work. You may not grasp it but the difference is real. It’s the same reason we don’t “pay” for mods but can “donate” if you like the creations of a specific user. Words matter. I can absolutely see a scenario where someone stumbles upon this thread from outside this community and asks him to “make” a face not in 2k21 that is ready for conversion. I’m glad OP cleared it up that these are conversions.
I am in no way intimidated by this thread or anyone in it. I have literally every conversion from 2k21 with my own tattoos over the top. I don’t need these works, but it’s awesome of him to share with the community.
OP, keep up the great work. Excited to see who’s next.

And now you're complimenting him but you started this drama telling that he didn't "MADE" anything here. That sounds hypocrite to me.

You take what I say as arrogant and that’s fine. That’s your prerogative. There is literally no drama and no negativity beyond what you imagine is some slight. I genuinely like to see conversions as it keeps interest alive for 2k20. OP is a huge asset to the community with these conversions. But I’ve been around here long enough to know that if you don’t specify these are conversions, someone will come in an ask for you to make a “Patrick Mahomes cyberface” or something off the wall that isn’t a conversion. If you’re clear up front, it heads some of that off. Plus, for as much as I’m not a supporter of 2k, I think credit is important and the fact these are 2k renders originally should be shown some level of recognition. I’m not sure where you think the drama is. We don’t need to be soft, we can have conversations and disagreements rationally and discuss accordingly.therealgrimmie wrote:

I’m in no way bragging, I’m saying I don’t need the content but it’s still important to the community at large. I can have all these conversions and still be excited to see who he’s doing next, it’s two distinct thoughts. Just like I can be excited to see the screenshot you post after every release. It’s a genuine interest in community content. You said I was intimidated, I’m telling you I have the content so there’s no need for me to be intimidated.
I don’t know how the “made” vs “converted” got construed as an insult. Reference my above response, but I don’t take anything away from OP. This is a great addition of content and he’s hosting it on the NLSC which is even better. I’m just saying “made” is a specific term and could cause confusion. He may get asked to “make” faces without conversions from 2k21. I’ve got no issue with OP. Hell, I originally tried to point out to a commentor the need for “convert” without OP involved at all.
“Make” implies some level of creative endevour to me beyond “convert”. “Make” involves editing the face files and likely the model to create something brand new. 2k already created this content from 2k21 so I think it’s important to recognize them for these high quality scans. Again, I’m not blasting and this isn’t drama, I just think words matter. If you ported another modders work to 2k21 from 2k20, would you say you “made” it? I doubt that very much and the community would rightly be upset. I think we should give 2k21 to 2k20 works the same treatment. They are conversions, they aren’t being made by the OP, regardless of user.

First off, you were definitely bragging. It was pretty evident. It wasn't remotely subtle.
Secondly, you can skip me on all the semantic nonsense you're spewing. Not one other person is buying it.
And lastly, have you ever noticed that you're the only one ever having these so called "disagreements"? I've watched you get into it with multiple people on these forums for literally no reason. At some point you have to put your ego aside and realize you're the only common denominator in all these situations.

kidhybrid89 wrote:"You may not grasp it but the difference is real." - Condescending someone per usual. Not to mention his previous comment clarified that there was a distinction but that he thought you were overreacting to the semantics of the word. Yet you ignore that and get an attitude. SHOCKING.
kidhybrid89 wrote:"I am in no way intimidated by this thread or anyone in it. I have literally every conversion from 2k21 with my own tattoos over the top. I don’t need these works" - In what world is this not bragging to you? Any sensible person reading that is likely going to come to the same conclusion. The fact that more than one person is calling you out on it should be a clear indicator of your lack of self-awareness.
kidhybrid89 wrote:"OP, keep up the great work. Excited to see who’s next." - This coming from someone who went out of their way for no reason at all to demean his work. Quite literally the definition of a back-handed compliment. Very hypocritical to boot.
kidhybrid89 wrote:"If this is the level of discourse, we are definitely done here." - Yet you continue to go on anyways.![]()
kidhybrid89 wrote:"I was informed I spoke up originally because I was “intimidated” by this thread." - Perhaps that isn't the correct word for it but jealously might fit a little better in my opinion. I mean why even post here if you have something "that's better"? It served no real purpose than to demean another person while patting yourself on the back. Furthermore, if you had such an issue with the literal wording of the post (which is rather trivial to begin with), a private message would suffice. You made it a point to do it publicly so you could put down yet another poster's work. Which is typical ego-driven jealous behavior.
kidhybrid89 wrote:"I don’t need anyone to buy the “semantics” argument. That’s my reasoning for posting it and if you don’t believe it that’s fine, but you probably shouldn’t speak for everyone. It’s an important distinction to make between “made” and “converted”." - That's cool that you think that but it's a case of the boy who cried wolf. You've now done this MULTIPLE TIMES and behaved similarly on numerous threads. The ironic thing is that you get plenty of praise on your work here so there's really no need to be immature enough to feel compelled to correct someone over the usage of a word. Even if your "argument", and I use that term loosely, has some truth to it, it's all rather trivial none the less.
kidhybrid89 wrote:"I’m not the only person getting into disagreements. There are several on the 2k21 forums that I just lurk and watch unfold." - Yeah little things here and there for sure. Unfortunately, you have had several issues with the likes of Shuajota, PettyPaulPierce, Mr. Star, and now this one and that's just what I can name off the top of my head. I'm sure there's more to add to that list too if I really went through your posts... I mean don't you think that's a lot for one person? Also, why does pointing out someone else's arguments make you feel better about the unnecessary ones you've created? Not a lot of logic behind that statement.
kidhybrid89 wrote:To summarize, it's as if whenever someone is doing something similar to you (creating new rookie classes, filling in the current roster) that you get jealous and have to start drama over it, usually resulting in similar types of posts and attempts to demean someone's work. Then you sum it all up with some backhanded compliments and pretend you're the righteous guy at the end of it. I've seen you do this multiple times now and you DESERVE to be called out on it. I appreciate your work as much as anyone but at a certain point your ego is simply getting the best of you. Again there was no need for you to post anything here like that and if you truly wanted a distinction to be made, you could have sent a private message instead of getting upset at someone's usage of the word make. This is all silly nonsense created for no reason. Period.

Yeah I’m done derailing the thread. I still think words matter and “conversion” is different than “make”. Regardless, makes sense to get back to the regularly scheduled content. Best of luck with the conversions, OP. Hopefully you can do guys that got added in patches like Bowman and such.

You killed the mood in this thread. You started the "word matters" drama which is just pretty non sense, unnecessary, and inappropriate here. Just accept the fact that you are intimidated and jealous. You feel entitled because you "make" cyberfaces that's why we should praise you and not this kind of stuff lol.![]()
PS. Of course you will reply to this because you can't accept criticisms and will always defend yourself thinking that you are always right. Can't wait to hear your explanations
