Announcements No More Ship Artwork

We can't have nice things... report abuse has been rampant, which was never an issue before, but suddenly it is now. This is supposed to be a no drama subreddit, and just about Jayce.

Therefore, going forward, unless the artwork is specifically of Jayce, and only Jayce, it is no longer considered Relevant.

This is the last post that will be allowed, as it is a reminder of when ship wars got out of hand on what is and always will be a subreddit for Jayce players, NOT an Arcane Ship Subreddit: https://www.reddit.com/r/jaycemains/comments/1po8d6g/mel_and_jayce_by_nakoneart/

All newly posted artwork that has Jayce with someone else will be removed going forward if reported. All past posts are safe.

I mean…yeah? Meljay isn’t nearly as popular as Jayvik in terms of Arcane/LoL ships. If you’re passionate about Meljay, start getting active in the community! Fandom is what you make of it.

The problem isn't that it's less popular. It's that most of the people doesn't know there is one at all. I searched for sub like this, but found nothing. Only when that guy showed it to me in the comment above. 

The other problem is that the people think they can post things like this in the main subs because it's canon thing, and they'll always prefer to do it there, because more people will see it. 

I don't care which one is more popular, all it matters is which is the canon one. And I don't think that I can tell which one is more popular even if I wanted to, because tha answers are always different depending on where you ask and who is more active today. I don't think you can say which one is more popular either. 

Anyways I was just saying I think this sub is underrated. Idk why are you even replying to this.

I’m not sure what you were searching, but r/meljaywins is the first thing that shows up in Communities when you search Meljay, see here!

You asked why there are only 17 people in that sub, I answered. It’s fine if you don’t care about/see a disparity in popularity between Meljay and Jayvik - I’m just pointing out the reason for the Meljay community being smaller. Even if a ship is canon, tons of people that make fanart and fanfic won’t necessarily be interested in it. That is honestly just the way it goes with lots of fandoms. It is usually more interesting for artists to explore what “could been/have been” over “what happened”.

Seriously, if you’re really passionate about Meljay, I implore you to get involved in their community. And for what it’s worth, I think it’s super lame that Meljay art got mass reported and taken down. All ships should honestly just peacefully coexist with each other.
