@ chrono_a  I guess it's good that they have at least some prizes that have some kind of real value (aside from exposure). More problematic is their wording for copyright claims, which suggests that you can't have intellectual property of your work since you have no right to register it officially. I'm far from being a lawyer but this just sounds somewhat like scam to me.
            
            Don't get me wrong, I like contests if they are awarded in the right way but ambiguous terms regarding copyright is just shady in my opinion.

@a_lot_of_ducks their Genshin art contest sucks that's true but all in all, including CCs from their other games such as Honkai and Themis, they are quite supportive. A Novice Creator event is happening right now in HoYoLAB and if you completed some of the tasks, they will give you a merch of your own choice plus they also boost your content for more exposure! They recently held a Music Competition and the prizes are quite good? (Never saw any music producer complain.) Just because Genshin's CC management sucks, doesn't mean that HoYo isn't supportive of their CCs. In fact, atleast from my experience in being a CC in HoYoLAB, they value their Content Creators! 

@ chrono_a  I'm happy for you that your fics do great but to say that HoYo is supportive of their content creators? They do art contests from time to time but their prizes are really meh if you consider most work two digit hours on their works and the biggest prize is 3k primos.
            Currently I can't find their ToS so I can't say if it's as of a scam as Adobe's / Billie's contest but it just feels wrong to ask for art and do a contest if the highest prize you give is fictional currency and then even so little...

@WinterSoot AAAAAH TY!! He's my tot husbando (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧

@Tsuki_to_Tokyo thank you so much friend! Your support really matters to me 

@chrono_a Oof. It was a really good book! I understand why though so I would like to thank you for all the happiness it has brought me :)

@yoriichi_obsession thank you!! ｡◕‿◕｡

@chrono_a most of my family members are teachers at the same school! The very highschool i go to.

@Ji-Nyang I can relate about the part where your mom is a teacher. Most of my family members are teachers too! The pressure when you came from a family of teacher/teachers is really too much. •́  ‿ ,•̀

Specially since my mom is my teacher 

@a_lot_of_ducks thank you!! However, studying became my hobby. Getting high grades are always giving me a sense of fulfillment and for me it's a symbol that I did my best. That's why I prioritize studying more than anything, I am just happy getting high grades! (Also, some members of my family give me money if I obtained high grades or give me gifts or treat me to a meal so that's why I'm kinda motivated to study more. (｡•̀ᴗ-)✧) There are just times that my perfectionist side as well as the pressure from those around me gets the better of me, causing myself to sometimes cry. (It doesn't happen everyday though.) However, when that thing happens, I always make sure to take a step back and do other things I enjoy such as reading and writing or playing games until I'm ok. I don't study when I don't want to. Again, thank you for your concern! That means a lot to me (◍•ᴗ•◍)
            
            P.S. about that part that some people taking pride in studying, I am honestly annoyed by that people. Especially when they are way too arrogant. ಠ_ಠ

@ chrono_a  I know many people want perfect grades and such. I have seen many people pride themselves over studying like maniacs and take every opportunity to shit on you because you're supposed to have it easier.
            I have to be honest, I pity people who threw away their childhood just for grades. In university nobody will care about them since it's a completely different game anyway.
            I am not joking when I tell you that. A girl studied so fucking hard that she had a mental breakdown and couldn't continue with school and I wish that nobody. Not trying to scare you or anything but just take care of yourself :)

@a_lot_of_ducks I didn't totally neglect our paper. I'm actually someone who's overachieving when it comes to grades and a little perfectionist so I prioritize my grades over anything (including my mental well being). I just procrastinated for a while yesterday morning but I also finished and passed our paper yesterday night here in my country.
