Don't yell at/mock/put down n00bs or imperfect cosplayers. You're imperfect, too, ego maniacs, and were once a cosplay/cosplay.com n00b.

...
*smh* I have nothing to say.

That wasn't what I was getting at.
You were being hypocritical.

I've never thought I was perfect, but I can't say I haven't bullied anyone.

You said don't yell/mock/put down, but then proceeded to call everyone imperfect ego maniacs.
While it is true no one is perfect (well maybe PAK is), this is your place to say that young padawan.
And your stating we're ego maniacs is a huge generalization.
I have very low confiedence, and I'm sure others on this site do as well.

[Angel Miki]

Same here, but- *sighs* Can we just let this go? It's gone now.

[Vavo Natsumi]

Of course!
Just one last thing-two actually.
First. Treat people here how you'd want to be treated. If your sweet, you get pocky! (ok maybe not.) If you're bad, you bet bannned (or Amnesia .gifs) Trolls exist, but don't mind them; you'll get used to it quick, they get amusing quick too actually.
Two. Since you're new I very much advise this. If you see a thread created by user beginning with the word Proud, PROUD, or PR0UD, avoid it. Wait until you're really used to trolls. These threads usually get shut down fast, but when they grow in length, we post pictures and have fun. If you do want to see what one of the threads look like, some of them are still up (but closed) you just have to look for them.
Other than that, I hope you have a good time on coscom
(that sounded so cheesy! :P )

[Angel Miki]

Uhh... I wouldn't really go into a garunteed troll thread, but okay.

[Vavo Natsumi]

They're really funny, we actually love him. That PAK guy I mentioned, thats him.
The last one I was in we posted pictures of doggies and kitties, but this is getting really off topic.
I don't live in Florida (been there on Vacation many times though, have friends there, thought I might them one on this thread.) If I did, I'd be intrested, but alas

Yeah, I hate having a really long to-do list and not enough done. I feel like it just gets longer every day, too! Sometimes I'll be halfway done with a project, then realize I have a zillion more things I need to do with it.
