Stardoll's Most Hated Website

Amateur Reviews: The Lovely And Broken

2012-01-27T14:11:00.004-05:00

Another frickin' week has past and I need to fame-whore another project for you guys. Like I said before, not all my reviews will be highlighting the best projects so beware. Today we have The Lovely And Broken, its a stardoll TV show series (like Chronicles of Cora, Diamonds Are Forever, Samantha King and etc). In it's second episode, so far so good.

Who?
Riding solo, hevascore234 is working on this project on her alone. From the writing, to graphics, to the poor advertising. If I were her, I'd at least get someone to do the graphics. Because her graphic is a little reoccurring if you know what I mean....

She uses it here,

here,

and here.

What?
This is the part when I tell you all about the project I'm featuring. Unfortunately, due to her poor blog layout skills. Hevascore234 has no 'About Us' tab or any tab in general. So I'm just going to wing it, basically this story is about a 17-year-old girl who was living with her mom until they got into a heated argument. Tiffany (the 17-year-old girl), lost her dad in a fire/car crash and is emotionally and physically harmed by the experience. Joanne, Tiffany's mother, blames the crash on Tiffany since she was in the car with her father. Tiffany runs away from home and finds herself living the life of a hobo, sleeping on the pavement in front of a shop. The shop owner thinks she is ~~dead~~ trying to shop lift, so they call the po po. Tiffany quietly walks into a restaurant to escape and use the restroom. There she meets a flirty waiter and two skank face bitches. After getting her ass slightly kicked, she leave the ~~pub~~ restaurant and talks to a stranger with a guitar, and thats how episode two ends. If he doesn't look like Justin Bieber, it ain't worth it girl.

A picture of someone incapable of raping you, Justin Bieber.

When?

The Lovely And Broken is about one month old. And has less followers than even Reece's 300 projects get. Currently at 2 followers and 260 page views. These are some depressing stats. So please help the girl out a bit and follow her blog. I remember when I had less than 10 followers on my blog, it sucked monkey balls.... The most comments she's gotten on a post is three, and one of the comments were from herself.

lmfao is right, this is a pity you guise.

Side-Comments?

I know it may seem like I'm bitching about the project. But really, its actually not that bad of a project. Aside from the bad background, tasteless head banner and unfitting show title, its great. Honestly. The first episode throw me off a bit, but I generally liked it. At first I though Tiffany's dad died in a fire, but in reality it was an explosion. Then her mother smokes, drinks and expects to be served breakfast like a princess. Tiffany defiantly has life at its worst. Another thing that got me off was the punctuation. Its one of my pointless pet peeves because everyone learns how to write differently. With that all being said, y'all should follow this blog. The story line and writing is really good, plus anything is better than two followers and its worth it. I promise.

RADIO PEREZ! THIS FRIDAY!

2012-01-24T17:18:00.000-05:00

SO. I decided I would throw a Radio Perez show this upcoming Friday. I feel like we've not had a good old proper RP in a while, so why not do one myself? And my "good old proper RP" I obviously mean an RP accompanied by a theme and a Best & Worst Dressed List!

I decided on the theme as...

When I think of Haute Couture, I think of BIG flowing dresses, heavy accessories, lots of colour, lots of definition, perfect detail and spectacular make up, this is what I want all of you to think when you create your outfits for this weeks RP!

Submit an imgur or tinypic link of your outfit on THIS post, I will not be looking in your Suites/Albums nor will I be accepting any links other than tinypic or imgur.

Have fun and be creative! I will see you all at 10PM GMT / 6PM EST this Friday here.

The First Of Amateur Reviews

2012-01-21T15:33:00.008-05:00

In case you weren't around to read my first post, please be aware I'm not here to bring you gossip. The other writers are, but if I come across some drama I can write about, I definitely will. I write reviews and critique projects made by not so well known people on stardoll. One more thing before I begin my review, what do y'all think of my new banner?

My first project to review is... The Graphic Vault! I thought this would be the prefect project to review first because I know alot of you are looking for graphic designers to prepare for things like the Karma Fashion Week and TTT Fashion Week.

Who?
The owner is Missceaaria, though she is joined with 6 other graphic artists including the ever so talented Nika and the owner of Tidal swimwear, sparklewand12 (aka that one girl who thinks microsoft paint is the new photoshop elements).

An image of Nika's work.

An image of Sparklewand12's work.

What?

The Vault is a place where graphic artists can share their work and compare their work to their peers products on the same blog. I think its a pretty good idea (if you ask me), kodos to missceaaris for thinking of this idea and then famewhoring it in my guestbook a couple weeks ago LOL.

When?

The Graphic Vault has been around for about three months now and is living on the scarce number of only 40 followers. But they have a handful of media partners including Ghandoora The Boss blog and Outrage Factory.

Side-Comments?

I love the blog from head to toe when it comes to layout, formatting and etc., but when it comes to the actual graphics it can get distracting. On the blog everyone is at different skills levels, ranging from the next ForeverGorgeous to the photoshop level of this kid (see image below).

Okay, maybe not as bad as that kid. But alot of them seem to be improving over time. Although it would be boring if all of them did their graphics the same way, at the same level. I also love how some of them just practice for fun, so they ask their viewers to apply as a model so they can use your medoll to practice.

Why the anonymous....stays anonymous

2012-01-20T15:47:00.000-05:00

Her identity analysed and posts dissected by gossip hungry bloggers piecing together the mystery member otherwise known as The Antagonist. After many a post discussing the girl behind the screen and her unorthodox opinions of those who made some of the biggest stardollian mistakes in a risqué bid for popularity. Voicing the facts everyone was thinking with a fresh outlook and an even thicker skin, leaving a trail of destruction, deceit and drama behind her.

No pressure to conform to normality or feeling the need to impress anyone by the simple but extraordinarily effective aspect of keeping her name hidden. The mystery member intrigues the audience enticing them in to read and follow the excellent literature she produces.

The Antagonist

Like Manny and Sarah I would rather the identity remains a secret and for the identity of whomever The Antagonist may be to be revealed whenever she or he feels is appropriate. The secrecy I find adds to the allure of this intricate web of perplexity and temptation, whilst keeping us on our toes playing this guessing game. It would be a shame to ruin it, to break through walls of privacy.

Keep it hidden or expose her true name?

-Georgie xx

RADIO PEREZ?! Yup, its today.

2012-01-20T12:58:00.002-05:00

That's right, I want to host a Radio Perez today!

RADIO PEREZ TINYCHAT HERE

Oh mah glob. Even if you don't care, its for those who do and asked me to host it, so we can all catch up and take the time to chat and gozzipz and be super 3l33t together.

:')

EDIT: I will make it its normal time! So its still 6 p.m. EST!/5 p.m. CST. But you can go whenever.

See you later.

Love, Dei

Detective Work Pays Off

2012-01-19T20:19:00.000-05:00

You all probably know about the drama unfolding with Ebony, The Antagonist, Dei, and Photoshop.

I'll give you a run through of what has happened so you all understand.

the antagonist appears

So this new anonymous blogger has hit Stardoll and everybody is amazed and freaked at the same time. The writing is catchy and yet some people notice that there may be different people writing for the blog.

people point fingers

Everyone is all in a dither about who the hell it could be. After The Antagonist wrote a long lovely post about Jack's award, people were questioning Ebony's moody comments and Dei put two and two together along with Sofi and others, and came up with a whole lot more than just four.

wait, was ebony actually the antagonist?

It appears to be so, after all we all know that in the first post by The Antagonist, they say that they had some sort of tiff with Dan that resulted in their hate of PSG.

When Dei asked Dan about any possible people who could have a vendetta against PSG, he replied with this:

(credits to Dei of PSG)

Dan thinks Linda may be behind the whole charade, but Dei knew that Linda is one to speak her mind, and if she had a problem with PSG, she would say so.

Linda confided in Dei that she was asked to write for The Antagonist, and these statement spawned rumours that there was more than one person writing for the blog. Or to put it bluntly:

Jack's comment from Dei's PSG post

Unfortunately the guestbook comments in question mentioned by Jack in the above post have been deleted by a quick-thinking Antagonist.

the truth?

Sofi realized that The Antagonist could be Ebony because of these reasons.

credits to Dei of PSG

Ebony constantly praised the Antagonist and criticized others who questioned whether the Antagonist was right.

As you can see Ebony is quite angry about the whole accusing thing, and then again, so would we be too if we were accused of a similar thing?

the photoshopping

Dei pointed out that Ebony has remarkable skills at Photoshopping and graphics, as seen here.

from Ebony Sharie's graphics blog

the colours

Some also suggested Ebony's love for black backgrounds, which can be seen in her presentation. She chose simplicity and minimalistic tones for her suite also, and these can also be seen in the Antagonist blog.

Now, here are the images that Ebony gave as proof that she was simply the graphics designer for the Antagonist and nothing more.

Many people said that because of the fuzziness around the text, it must be photoshopped.

However, Ebony said this in her defence.

I checked out the links she offered, and this is what showed up:

One is blurry and the other is somewhat clear. I noticed just now that in the blurry picture that had supposedly been Photoshopped, all the text is blurry, even the side text. Therefore, she would have had to have Photoshopped everything. Its more likely that these were not Photoshopped at all.

the reset emails

Another interesting point was brought up. If Ebony was indeed the Antagonist, then shouldn't their reset emails be the same?


from Dei's PSG post

from Dei's PSG post

And if you were wondering, these images weren't Photoshopped. You would able to tell by tilting your screen and seeing fuzzy specks on the text. Since there are no specks, its safe to say that this wasn't Photoshopped.

Now however, the reset passwords have been changed.

With a lucky guess, I typed in ebonysharie into the box, and behold! That was her new recovery email!

Below I tried the Antagonist's email, and it was still the same recovery email as before.

Ebony sent this image as proof of her innocence.

But, as Aislin pointed out:

So, there are still questions to be answered.

Why would they have the same email for their recovery email?

Why did they change it so quickly?

Does Ebony know something she's not telling?

The Antagonist Is ___?

2012-01-18T17:35:00.001-05:00

WARNING - Long post, so if you complain about it being long, you can't didn't warn you.
EDIT: UPDATE BELOW.

You know that 'Antagonist' person? Well me and Sofi(Lulla86) always joke about who they could possible be if we get on a subject about Stardoll. Relating people to them like crazy.

I remember I said it was Kasia, since she hates MDM, but I already know from the one post The Antagonist made, they were iffy about MDM, not a huge hater, while Kasia HATES MDM. And well, I don't think Kasia cares for gossip blogging anymore. AND, she use to write for PSG, and stopped writing, so why would she care? So Kasia was a no no.

Then we thought Selena... pffft, no. Even though Selena has used fake account more than enough times, but why would she want to put up a fake just to gossip? She has BFM.

All sorts of people popped into mind, Lolita? Maybe she wanted to sneak back on Stardoll? Aislin? Maybe EE was too dead to her and she wanted to talk about how iffy she is about MDM without telling me?

I know.. I am being silly. But really thats all our suggestions were, just silly allegations poking fun about the new anonymous blogger.

Up until today.. We are about 70% positive we know who 'The Antagonist' is.
---

Well, like a day or two ago, I asked Dan a question, because like dozens of people know, on one of the posts that The Antagonist, I will them The Ant' for short, but they mentioned they basically hate the blogs MDM AND PSG, and changed PSG to BFM. And that also, they mentioned before they were denied from PSG? So we just thought of people who got dissed from PSG as a new writer.

And so I asked Dan was there anyone who applied who didn't have any prior experience? Since I told him we were wondering who the eff The Ant' could be. And he said something about the new writer AbbeyDawn-something, and well I doubted it was her since I don't see why she would hate PSG. And well Dan also told me he thought it was Linda(Elite-Girl). And I was baffled and denied it could be her, and then Dan sent me this.

Larger view HERE

Since Linda is a very very good friend of mine, we talk all the time when we both catch each other around on Skype, and she is a very expressive person, so if she was mad, she'd say so, and I remember she was planning on quitting PSG anyway to start up KOM again anyway. BUT what Dan said made me think a bit. What if he was right that a previous writer of PSG was angry that they were not on PSG today but it wasn't Linda?

And then, before that even, Linda told me in secret, which she said she wanted to find out who it was as well, but she was asked to actually WRITE for The Antagonist blog, which also made me think 'Why would she tell me that if she told me the only reason she agreed to it was to find out who it was?'

And then Sofi was reminded of something, well not just something, someONE's personality.

Ebony.

Now to think of it, though I don't know if Ebony thinks it or not, she was a writer of PSG, and usually she was disliked for a majority of her posts, though I don't hate her, she was pretty disliked by a few. So she might've hated it because of it, but is wishy-washy because of it.

And here is what Sofi pointed out to me also, whoever the Ant' was, they had to of had a great ability of Photoshopping and Fonts. Ebony has these qualities.

(From Ebony's graphics blog)

While the Ant' made Jack look so fabulous on his trophy, which Jack even made a post thanking everyone who got him there.

But what did Ebony write on his post? This.

What?! We all know Jack and Ebony have beef, I would expect her to say 'Haha, you deserve it! You are a douche!' But instead she seems... offended?

And that isn't the first post she felt offended on about the Ant'.

On a post on the Ant' called 'A Touchy Subject', which is the one I figured that whoever they were they didn't necessarily hate MDM, she talked about mine and Aislin's MDM delays and about our issues with updating. And one comment offended Ebony.

And Ebony said...

Ummm, major 'WTF Moment' or what? All they said was 'No one was perfect' and she got told to shut up.. I wonder why..
---

And this is a stupid suggestion, but I looked at Ebony's blogs, quick facts. And Sofi also told me.

Ebony loves gray and the color green. Something you also might think is a stupid fact, but on the Ant's blog, the main theme does seem like her style, especially since on both of Ebony's blog.

She also has chats on her blogs allowing people to comment freely, now this Antagonist blog has a comment/chat section on the side? Whaaa.
---

EDIT: Someone just sent me THESE 2 print screens. And just for the record, I didn't ask them to do it for me, they just did it out of their own want to figure it out.

Summary: These 2 images, though in another language, 'Lithuanian', basically who sent me this is Lithuanian, and that they used the emails from Ebony's and The Antagonist's bloggers and clicked on the 'Reset Password' button when they were looking at them.

Why? I don't know. But anyway, what they discovered was that the email accounts have the SAME backup accounts. Meaning, if either email account data had been lost/forgotten, they would both have to send the data to that very email that is underlined above.

EDIT #2: LOL, someone made me an English version of the pages too, and its from a MacBook, which I do not own.

Link One
Link Two
Link Three
---

Anyway, theses are only suggestions, so I don't care if we are wrong or not. And its just an opinion. Just giving you something to 'nipple' on. Yup, I said nipple.

Love, Dei

I JUST WANNA THANK ALL MY FRIENDS AND FAMILY

2012-01-18T09:51:00.000-05:00

Stardollian sex? and I thought it couldn't get any worse....

2012-01-16T15:57:00.002-05:00

I won't bore you with the usual monotone post filled with waffle and pointless facts inn a poor attempt to get you all to like me, but get straight to the point of the post...

After reading an endearing post concerning the sexualisation of some of Stardolls members I pondered upon the many reasons why younger dolls would want to dress in such diminishing attire. Attention seeking and possibly famewhoreing crossed my mind on numerous occasions but it was only when I received an absolutely repulsive comment in my guestbook and looked at the offenders suite I discovered a darker undiscovered part of the supposedly 'child friendly' site we call stardoll.

With disproportional bodies, clad in fishnets and flimsy underwear is this a new age of stardoll sex dolls? The presentations state that the particular member wants to find a partner to engage in some kind of 'sex' through suite chat. Suggestive names such as 'touchmehardbaby' featured under the last visited column of the suite. The only question on my lips is 'What the hell are they thinking?'

Examples of comments found in the offender’s guestbook:

*Comments may not be suitable for younger audiences*

It's been sitting undiscovered under our noses for goodness knows how long. One thing for sure Stardoll really need to get their priorities in order...

Hot Or Not?

2012-01-16T12:48:00.021-05:00

Why hello dolly divas, Its been awhile. Every ones so busy with life. I've noticed many changes to Stardoll. Some pleasant, others not so much. I've always tried to be original and not go with whats trending. Some trends can be epic fails while others are borderline fashion genius.

As you all know, Stardoll has given us the option to create our own jewelry (which is beyond awesome, might I add) Lets take a look at a couple of the most recent trends that stemmed from this new feature. The trends that simply wont quit.

One trend I've been seeing a lot of is -dum dum doooom- you guessed it. WIGS.
Good wigs. Bad wigs. Wigs that don't even look like wigs. Fabulous Headdresses and more.
At first I was totally against the entire wig thing. But the fact that this (photo below) was the first wig I saw may have played a huge factor on my initial decision to ban the homemade wigs.

Photo'd below is PunkDawn. I honestly feel like this is atrocious. I know DKNY berets are hard to come by for for dollchrist's sake, please do not do this. It looks ridiculous.
NOT

Another creation that has been spreading like wild fire is the closed eyes, eyeshadow effect.
Similar to the wigs, this look is also created using various feathers. I personally think it makes the dolls look scary. Are they sleep or are they dead? Totally creepy. There are plenty of eyeshadow choices on Stardoll. This is pushing the envelope, and pointless in my opinion...

Pictured here is Skyblu247, sporting a horribly made side bun and standard closed eyes. I'd have to say that this overall look is a NOT. The only thing hot about it is the fact that its a hot mess. Stay away from hastily made wigs. All of them do not make your doll pretty.

One doll that caught my eye was Papayca. Shes wearing the closed eyes but manages to pull it off nicely. Her fairy tale look is nothing short of enchanting.
HOT!

I'm not sure if that's a feather wig or a dirty mop on Serenita7's head. Either way, I'll have to say that this look is a definite
NOT.

I spotted Gladisk while surfing Stardoll and immediately decided to take a closer look. I adore this particular wig. It looks so carefree and doesn't seem too hard to recreate.
Hot.

Next up is Sakutaro. Stardolls princess of Harajuku/lolita. I love this style. She really knows how to capture the essense of kawaii. Cute.
^_^ Very HOT.

PrincessNelli's Outlandish style immediately piqued my interest. I'm still not sure if its hot or not. Although, I can certainly say that its creative and elegant.

Check out elite-Girl. This wig is pure fabulous. I can see that more than just feathers was used to create this 1940s pin up style. It's also very neat and well made. Kudos to whoever created this wig.

Looks just like the real thing. HOT!

I even took the time to create my own little wig creation. It's actually just some bangs I made to match the curly bun. I'm not sure how I feel about it. I wish it looked more like real hair and blended in. Stardoll needs to just go ahead and give us a new feature "Design your own wig". Complete with hair strands and different pieces we could mix and match. Good idea? lol. no?

How do you feel about the wigs? Are they the new rage or are you totally outraged?
Know any dolls that make particularly good wig designs? Post them in comments.

XOXO,
CommesDesGarcon

Eliteprotect's True Identity Hits Close to Home

2012-01-15T12:15:00.002-05:00

Sometimes the answer to the mystery can be closer than you think. Take Pretty Little Liars for example.

*note: I am about to reveal a huge spoiler of PLL and do NOT read this if you are still reading the last book.*

A turns out not to be creepy and stalkeresque construction man who was working on Ali's backyard gazebo. It turns out to be Mona, a friend of the Liars, and Ali herself.

So, if our eliteprotect is actually someone we all know and love, then does anybody want to take a guess?

Joanna exemplified her decoding skills again, by decoding Jack's presentation.

credits to Joanna of BFM

Using the same method as the other codes, we can see that Jack has admitted he was eliteprotect.

After allowing that moment of truth to sink in, we have to act with a degree of maturity before anons storm over to Jack's suite and attack him verbally.

We have no need for threats or mean messages. Think about what just happened, rather than what he did in the past.

Jack admitted what he did, which is hard to do in real life, never mind online. He was strong enough to do that and we can't be mean to him when all he needs now is someone to listen to him.

So, take those words into consideration if indeed you do go to Jack's guestbook and offer your two cents.

Jack: I don't understand why you did this, but I am still here if you would like to talk. I am always your friend.

I am probably going to get some hate messages regarding my decision, but I don't care.

xoxo, Fiorama

Introducing Stardoll's Newest Anonymous Blogger

2012-01-14T19:19:00.002-05:00

What with all the drama finally settling down, a new anonymous blog emerged out of the dust.

This is somewhat similar to other anonymous blogs, yet somehow totally unrivaled and different.

The writer has a very honest voice, gritty, real, and not afraid to say what they are thinking.

The Antagonist is a unique writer, and one we surely need.

When I received this request, I didn't think much of it because I receive many like this.

I only just clicked the link now...

I also got many notifications about comments such as this.

Therefore, I was excited and eager to see what this "Antagonist" could have to say.

I was granted my wish today.

To be honest with you, I really don't mind that I was called a bitch or a five year old because everyone is entitled to their own opinion. I was more caught up in the writing style which made me feel as though the writer themself was beside me talking. It made me laugh out loud and it was as if a window was opened into dusty ol' Stardoll, letting a gust of fresh air into the place.

Audrey added her opinion of the new blog:

I agree with the part about toning down the swearing. I think Stardoll is beyond that behaviour, and its time to put some real writing out there.

Just out of curiousity, I checked the blogger profile for this writer, and got this:

As I said, its very honest.

Enjoy reading The Antagonist blog!

No Famewhoring Allowed

2012-01-13T22:29:00.001-05:00

I'm not going to formally introduce myself and tell you annoying, pointless facts about myself. But if you really want know more about me, just visit my page and read my presentation. Anyways, I'm here because of this new idea I had, of spotlighting unknown projects by people you probably haven't heard of before. Of course, instead of just famewhoring projects for people, I will critique their project (magazine, blog, fashion line and etc.), not guaranteeing a highly positive review. Meaning I won't sugar coat what I think of the project to you guys, I'm going to tell you how it is from my point of view. Hopefully you like this idea, because you guys tend to not like hearing about people they never knew existed, but you don't like hearing about the same people over and over again either. So I'll try to mix it up and keep it fresh. As of now I'm still searching for the project to review first, so if you have a project you'd like me to cover tell me in comments! And do any of you have a better name for me besides calling it "Amateur of the Week"? Tell me that in comments too, thanks!

WE WANT THE TRUTH

2012-01-13T16:54:00.000-05:00

After realising I hadn't even visited Noelle's account since it had been re-activated, I decided to do so and found this in her Guestbook

The only question on my lips is WHAT THE FUCK IS GOING ON?

Who is eliteprotect?
How is she connected to Noelle?
Why is she causing all this controversey?

I honestly don't even know what's happening. If eliteprotect's goal is to confuse us all, she is definitely succeeding.

COMMENT OF THE WEEK; liajm

2012-01-11T06:03:00.000-05:00

After more than an entire week full of almost daily (quite annoying and pointless) posts from Fiorma, I think most of you will be glad to see someone else posting, even if it is only lil' old me with my segment. Anyway, this weeks comment of the week is a slightly more deep quote than last time. Comment of the week is...

From Firomas post - Stardoll Statistics

Congratulations liajm! Your prize awaits you in my bazaar whenever you're ready!

xoxo freeduck_

P.S: Look out for my megapost about how Stardoll fashion has changed over the years, coming soon!

A New Fashion Line

2012-01-10T23:19:00.002-05:00

Say hello to a new fashion line!

Started by Vitalstatistick, the bar has been set high, promising the most unexpected outfits.

The link has yet to be posted, so I'll keep my eyes peeled for that!

Stardoll Takes Advantage Of Friday the 13th

2012-01-10T23:10:00.002-05:00

Stardoll has always offered some sort of deal on this day, but never have they explained the origins of the day.

I thought I would humour you, and tell you.


taken from Wikipedia

Isn't that lovely? Stardoll decided to take advantage of a culturally unlucky day to scrounge some more money.

After showing you that post about Stardoll's statistics, I think now is a good time to reiterate how greedy Stardoll is.

Anyways, I thought I'd leave you some reading material to look at over the weekend.

Enjoy your Black Friday!

Cardinal Sins of Fashion: 1. Baggy Clothes

2012-01-09T19:29:00.002-05:00

Now what you will see below is a major fashion disaster and I hope you will never repeat it.

It's not enough that the models are actually looking happy to wear these walking disasters, but the pajamas are oversize?!

The first page of outfits, I'll admit isn't so bad...

However, the outfits reach nuclear proportions of disaster when you see this: army print? animal print? paint splatter? Since when did these outfits become acceptable to wear in public?

Since when were baggy oversize outfits okay to wear at all?

Now this draws me to one of my favourite things to do: ranting.

I firmly believe that style isn't about keeping track of trends and buying them the second they hit H&M. Style is about knowing what looks good on you, what suits you, and what does not in any universe look good on you. Baggy clothes in loud-look-at-me prints do not flatter anyone.

So why is Stardoll convinced that we will even buy these?

Give one-piece a chance?! Yeah right. I'm sorry Stardoll, but I, unlike you, have a sense of style and fashion and am not going to get lured into buying these record breaking baggy footsies.

Thanks, but no thanks.

Another Famewhore!?

2012-01-08T14:40:00.003-05:00

I went to my guestbook, and found this message.

So, this new person isn't Reece, but claims to be more than ready to provide drama?

I'm beginning to see a pattern here:

Now that the Noelle and Aurelieke92 drama is over, of course there is always somebody who decides to start something that probably isn't going to be that big of a drama anyways.

Out of sheer boredom, I checked the page of this user, and saw this.

It sounds like a competition of some sort, to bring the book. Whatever the book is.

I added this to see if any of the characteristics match up with others.

Interesting outfit...hasn't even painted the walls yet.

I am so tired of seeing all these people trying to cause drama, and turn themselves into famewhores.

There, I said it.

That is the first time I've ever said famewhore, and I use it now to describe every single person, and mean anon, who has ever sold their souls to win their five minutes of fame.

If any of you have gotten this guestbook message, I suggest you ignore it, because we are only encouraging them.

Welcome Home, Noelle!

2012-01-08T14:17:00.002-05:00

Noelle's account is back and running again.

She looks refreshed and happy to be back, if I say so myself.

Of course, the first person I check afterwards is eliteprotect. I was sure he/she would have something to say on the subject.

But, no, eliteprotect hasn't been seen in 3 days. Guess he or she has nothing to say because it was all fake!

Welcome home, Noelle. We missed you. :)

xoxo, Fiorama

Melodie, Aurelieke92, and MannyPerry

2012-01-08T14:12:00.002-05:00

As I suspected, the story about Aurelieke92 was completely fake and fabricated from an unknown source whose blogger name is Melodie.

This post was all over ISD.

This must mean that someone went to the trouble of hacking her account, changing her suite to an elaborate coffin scenario, and making this stories to give to Manny, who posted them on ISD without knowing what was actually going on.

The "proof" that Melodie gave Manny was this.

It is very fake sounding, and a question came to my lips as soon I as finished reading.

Why would you notify members of a gaming site rather than mourn quietly with your family?!

Anyways, this is the comment that Melodie posted on blogger.

This makes me curious because she has a blogger picture, and a legitimate blogger account. Unfortunately I don't know where this image came from, on what post etc. so I have to find out.

Meanwhile Aurelieke92's presentation has been changed to this:

Her suite is also back to normal.

And if you are wondering for updates on Manny's situation with her account, she posted this:

Her new account, celeblover44 is gorgeous, and has lots of vintage clothes.

So, let's find out who this Melodie is!

The New Trend: Lying

2012-01-08T14:08:00.000-05:00

What is really up with people now-a-days on Stardoll? A new day, a new bullshit story.

I decided to make this post after the posts/features about one ISD writer was proven false. Ugh, I knew it was a lie. What kind of crap is 'she waz sh0t, R.I.P.!!1111'? For one, I doubt most people on Stardoll would know about a death unless in fact they had a sibling/relative who also used Stardoll, and I am sure you would know about them before the situation happened. And two, being shot is not always some fatal wound, it depends how or what shot you. But I didn't want to yell here and there, 'You guys just got pranked.'

(Click HERE to enlarge)

And then these past 2 months, eliteprotect has been causing rumors about Noelle being deceased. And recently the return of Noelle has put any of the little kindle of gossiping about it to rest, which was just so sad, a person would make up a story to catch the headlines like that. That they died! How vile.

And for a while, people have been lying about being hacked. Lying that they are this person, or about even the smallest things that have nothing to do with Stardoll, they just want attention put onto themselves.

Maybe its because of how hard it is to be noticed on Stardoll? Maybe they are so tired of the same people so they want the fame. Or to at least know they can make the front page of some big blogs and laugh at YOU because of how gullible we all are.

This needs to stop people... How low can you get.

Love, Dei

How do you feel about the frequent string of lies that have been popping up?

Stardoll Statistics

2012-01-07T22:17:00.002-05:00

Ever wondered how much Stardoll makes from us, let alone how many visits they get a day?

Check out these images, and you will be amazed.

So Stardoll made roughly 400K from us in October in the US alone. Am I the only one who is freaking out slightly?!

There were 1.5M unique visitors in Nov. 11 internationally. Now we now for sure Stardoll makes more than their fair share from us.

This is a chart showing how many people are online in the US at a time.

This, I think, is an interesting chart. It shows how many people on Stardoll are female, male, ages, cultures, student status and salary in the US. What shocked me was that 40% were males on Stardoll. I never knew there were many guys on Stardoll. Also,6% were 50 years and older. What 50 year olds spend their time on Stardoll!?

This just showed what other sites Stardoll users tended to like.

This shows the global traffic at a time, and look! No surprise there, but over 65% of Stardoll users are labeled as addicts!

If you look at how many people are on per month compared to the visits per month, obviously the average person visits around 22 times a month.

And if its not enough that Stardoll takes money from our wallets every month, they also have multi-billion dollar contracts with all these companies and brands.

Thanks. These images have just shown us who the real beast is.
Its is, and it always has been Stardoll.

RIP?

2012-01-07T21:50:00.001-05:00

Yet another sad death seems to have occurred.

Aurelieke92 apparently was shot, and her sister has dutifully told all her friends on Stardoll so they may start a memorial.

Her guestbook is already filled with mournful messages, such as these below.

Her suite has also been changed, to show her in a coffin.

Her information bar shows this.

So, she was a loyal member, having started in '09 and logging in ever since.

Personally, I am very confused about the shooting. And the death in general.

How could she have been shot? Why would her sister tell Stardoll first?

All these "deaths" and "dramas" are making my head spin, and I just want to know the truth for once.

So, my little detectives, this means its time to go investigating!

Manny Explains The Situation

2012-01-07T19:07:00.002-05:00

Manny posted this morning, explaining the details of what had happened to her account.

She asked her dad about it, and her dad put in some research to Manny's gmail account.

Her dad also contacted PayPal and got information about what happened with that Thai hacker.

She included the letter she wrote to Stardoll, blotting out some words.

Manny also added as a sidenote that she realized some words she used, such as spooky were immature.

It turns out Manny did have the account in her hands and she had never checked the transactions page.

So, someone from Thailand had been making purchases on her account, using her PayPal and such.

Anyways, Manny wanted to say this to you all:

...and she has emailed all her proof, petition, etc. to Stardoll. Let's hope justice returns to where it belongs!

Fashion Events

2012-01-07T07:25:00.000-05:00

It seemslike everyone here went for fashion, let’s not Forget PSG main focus, Gossip. Idon’t think it’s necessary for me to continue writing my fashion column inhere. Should I leave? While most of you may think I should, I won’t. I will tryand write some gossip, I might be good at it, and I don’t really know I nevertried. Let’s see how it will work out for me.

Today I amgoing to be, how do you call it? Fame whore, yes that’s right.

http://kharma-fw.blogspot.com

It’s comingin February and I have a few surprises planned. I am sure you will all like it.We need these kinds of events right now. It’s a cliché to say “why don’t we doit like the old days?” I prefer to tell you “Let’s show them how we do it now.”

If you havea fashion line or a magazine you still have time to sing up for this. We haveto wait and see how this will turn out to be. You will hear more from me soonin my new “position”.

MannyPerry Hacked

2012-01-06T18:30:00.002-05:00

When the account of MannyPerry disappeared, Stardoll was immediately blamed.

She made a new account to tell people what happened.

These intriguing comments in her guestbook made me curious.

Here, it insinuates her account being deleted, and I immediately wondered why. She always was very nice to me.

My confusion became deeper when I read this post on The Voice.

To sign this petition, go to this link.

Also, coming soon...

Ever wondered how much money Stardoll actually makes from us?

In my next post, I shall show you how much money is pilfered from our wallets and credit cards annually by the huge money making machine known as Stardoll...

Wow, edgy!

2012-01-06T08:01:00.002-05:00

Hey there! A lot of drama, isn't there?
It's very confusing for me, to be honest.

Haha, so let me introduce myself. I'm Mary-Kate, marikate14 on Stardoll, and I'm a new writer here. I have to thank Dan for this wonderful opportunity.

So, let me get to the subject! Are you into edgy outfits? Because I sure am.
As I was browsing in Stardoll, I saw these outfits and I completely fell in love with them.

I love this one, the layering is perfect. I love that mysterious look she's giving me.

It reminds something really dark but I love it. The layering is absolutely awesome.

What do you think about them?

If you think you know someone on Stardoll who is an expert at edgy outfits, tell me in comments:)

Noelle Responds To Eliteprotect

2012-01-05T19:26:00.000-05:00

I was scrolling through the comments, and noticed a username I haven't seen in a while.

I thought at first this could be a fake, but then clicked her name, and got this.

This is her correct profile, therefore that is really her.

Nobody seemed to notice her comment afterwards, and I immediately thought that maybe Noelle was going to reactivate her account so she could reassure us.

Alas, all I get is this...

She already has a comment in her guestbook.

What leaves me curious about the whole situation is simply this:

Could it be a simple question?

Could eliteprotect have forgotten to log out before writing this?

Why does she care about these accounts?

Is eliteprotect somehow related to these accounts?

Will we ever find out?

xoxo, Tinsley

Eliteprotect Revealed

2012-01-04T23:43:00.002-05:00

Finally!

We have figured it out, thanks to Joanna of BFM, original post here. (thank you Selena. :))

We were left with this comment, and didn't understand it at all.

Try the same thing we did with eliteprotect's presentation by looking at the first letter of every phrase.

It says clearly, I am Noelle.

All I can say is, "AHHHHHHHHHH!"

Sorry for my lack of better words, but seriously?!

Shit has just hit the fan!

OUTFIT OF THE WEEK!; Altered slightly

2012-01-04T14:35:00.001-05:00

Yes, that's right! I decided to change "Outfit of the week" to "Comment of the week". The comments are what make PSG the drama filled zone it is! Where else would you find bitchy cat fights, anon trolls, sneaky remarks and thoughtful paragraphs? So instead of featuring an outfit every Wednesday, I will feature a comment I found to be entertaining.

This weeks Comment of the week is...

*From Fiormas post - Exclusive Interview Revealed*

Congratulations Linda, you've bagged yourself a hot exclusive I ♥ PSG tee!

That's all until next week! Want to get your hands on an exclusive PSG tee? All you have to do is comment on any post around PSG made this week, and it could be you!

PSG: Your 2011 Awards

2012-01-04T08:56:00.006-05:00

2011 has come and gone and what a year it's been; so to celebrate I have decide to compile some polls for our readers to vote in and help us decide the BEST and WORST of the year on and off Stardoll.

The Results will be posted next week and I will interview the winners and losers where possible and get some input from our readers and some special guests, remember this is just for fun!

*IF YOU HAVE ANY IDEAS FOR A POLL OR SOMEBODY WHO SHOULD BE INCLUDED IN A CURRENT ONE POST A COMMENT AND TELL ME*

Exclusive Interview Revealed

2012-01-03T21:55:00.003-05:00

Now, as a New Year's gift to you all, I present to you the article you've been waiting for.

Some background information to reacqaint us with eliteprotect.

As many people already know, it spells out Noelle is alive. People have asked what this means, because eliteprotect told us that Noelle was dead, then says Noelle is alive.

These elusive comments leave us even more baffled and intrigued about eliteprotect.

Not only does the articulate grammar and speech leave us wondering who it could be, the answers are equally mysterious.

There is the chance that eliteprotect has put in completely random answers to this Quick Facts section, but maybe we can match up the characteristics to someone we know!

This is the interview.

There you have it. Raise the conclusions yourself.

OUTFIT OF THE WEEK!

2012-01-03T06:08:00.003-05:00

Seeing as the blog is pretty much bone dry at the moment (again), I thought I would introduce a new "segment" if you will.

Basically, every week, I will scour the depths of Dollywood and every Wednesday, feature my favourite damn sexy outfit I found that week, and the creator of said outfit wins...

AN EXCLUSIVE "I ♥ PSG" T-SHIRT!

(for free, of course!)

How rad! I will feature my first outfit tomorrow, and who knows, it could be YOU getting your face on this blog and your filthy paws on an exclusive tee!

xoxo freeduck_

P.S: Keep your eyes peeled for special guests!

On Trend...Wigs?

2011-12-23T17:12:00.005-05:00

Since Stardoll introduced the StarDesign Jewellery maker (finally!) I have noticed a new trend sweeping Dollywood; WIGS!

Lady Gaga and Nicki Minaj have been rocking the trend for years and Stardoll residents have taken note and started creating fashionable wigs and weaves for their dolls, some are stunning and some not so much it has to be said...

The Good

The Bad

Have you seen anyone rocking a wig? or even funnier, seen someone with a horrific one? Post your favorites wigs/wig makers and they could be in a future post on PSG showing the Best and Worst of wigs.

I've Got Something I Know You're Dying To See...

2011-12-23T16:10:00.002-05:00

Sorry for the misleading title, but hey! Who can blame me?! I need to get your attention and a suggestive title seems to be the only way. Anyways, I have something you'll want to get your freshly French manicured hands on, and its yummier than a double chocolate scone with extra butter from City Bakery.

It's something to do with the mysteriously poetic eliteprotect, and everything to do with Noelle.

Now that I've got your attention, you're just dying to read what I've got to say.

Unfortunately for you impatient little dollies, you'll have to wait a little bit longer.

We'll be kicking off the new year with a never before seen interview, and some previously unrevealed photos.

Hold on to your laptops dollies, you'll want them when the shit hits!

WHODUNNIT?

2011-12-23T06:17:00.000-05:00

Detective Duck here, preparing to mindfuck you all with my spectacular "investigation" of Stardoll's latest drama - The hacking of PSG!

Now as (I hope) you all know, PSG was mysteriously hacked after Dei made a somewhat "hate" post against fellow contributor Reece. In consequence, all past posts vanished and all writers removed! Now, obviously we all assumed it was ex-hacker, scammer and theif, Reece, but maybe we all assumed incorrectly...

Dan/SaltyDan

Admin
Close friend of blog owner
Head bitch in charge
Has no motives to hack the blog
Has never had any record of hacking

Dan was getting the blog back on track by opening the gates of PSG to new writers. He has no reason to hack the blog, he lost every post he ever made since he became a writer in 2008.

SUSPICION RATING; 0%

Dei/To_royal

Admin
Respects blog owner
Values position on blog
Has minimal advantages from hacking blog
Has never had any record of hacking

The only thing Dei would gain from hacking the blog would be full ownership, but that would cause her to receive tonnes of hate and be the centre of major drama, which from what I have been told, is not Dei's cup of tea. There is a small possibility that Dei is the hacker, but she has almost no reason to hack the blog at all. Although, these comments does make me wonder...

SUSPICION RATING; 20%

Jack/freeduck_/yours truly

Not an admin
Respects and is good friends with blog owner
Has never had any record of hacking
Was in London with no internet

Now I'm not going shove my head up my own arse, because that would be wrong. But, I had literally no motivation or way to hack the blog. I wasn't even an administrator, and at the time of the fiasco, I was in London with no laptop, I didn't even know about the whole thing until I got back. I was not an admin nor would I ever even want to hack PSG, it makes no sense. We all know I'm one who loves to start drama, but I would never go as far as to destroy a friends hard work.

SUSPICION RATING; 0%

Vanessa/Star_Awards/Elite.News

Admin
Close friend of blog owner
Has a lot of power over blog
Has almost no motivation
Is generally known as a respectful and kind person

Why would Vanessa want to hack the blog? Exactly, she wouldn't. She would gain next to nothing from doing so as she has a lot of power over decisions made on the blog (writers, blog layout etc.). It would be totally unnecessary for her to hack PSG.

SUSPICION RATING; 0%

Reece/mizzmileycyrus9/butterfly22/FabianTheGreat/etc.

Was apparently made admin
Barely knows nor respects blog owner
Severe history of hacking
Maximum motivation to hack the blog
Nothing left to lose

At the end of the day, Reece is a hacker, a scammer, a liar, a thief, a cheat and a scumbag. He is extremely selfish and is the kind of person who would stop at nothing to get his name on some blog. He was a new writer and was apparently made an admin. He had no reputation to think about, so what was there left to lose? He is obviously the one we all assume committed this foul act.

SUSPICION RATING; 90%

So, now I leave it in the hands of you, the readers. Using the evidence and information above, who do YOU think hacked PSG?

xoxo, freeduck_

What were you thinkin?

2011-12-22T07:05:00.000-05:00

I’m soexcited for Christmas, aren’t you all? I feel like it’s going to be reallyspecial this year. It will be different but still very good. I already havesome present under my tree. I am so curious I want to peek because I have no ideawhat’s wrapped in the beautiful wrapping paper.

Now to the purpose of the post. Sometimes Ireally wonder “What were you thinking?” How could you really wear that? Thosequestions haunt me and I never seem to find a good answer. This is one of those cases. Let’s see all aboutit.

Above we have filipinhamaria

Filipa isreally nice, don’t take me wrong, I like her but this not so much. She musthave all LE and all those overly priced brands. I am sure she could do muchbetter.

The dressis kind of bad. I get she is really into Burlesque things I hope it’s just aphase. The boots are gold and sparkly and over them we have a gold bag. It’skind of old fashion matching the bag with the shoes. We also have a matching necklaceand belt, it’s really not working.

I have aquestion Filipa. What were you thinking?

What do youthink was on her mind? Was it a really bad day?

Giving Back

2011-12-18T14:32:00.007-05:00

I am glad you all liked my last post and my choices. Thank you to all the lovely comments from anonymous, you guys are fantastic, you made me feel really welcomed. Guess this is how everything starts? I’m also glad you liked my misplaced *HINT*. It’s catchy isn’t it?

I would also like to thank the people that made me a banner. They are way better than mine. Bellow you can see 2, one from candycutie232 and the other from a person with a very original name, anonymous.

This post is not to report the *HINT* trend, I might do one later. And I’m sorry I won’t use any of the banners above because rhfcjnrf is making me one and I am sure I'll like it more. I'll keep the bad selfmade one. Also forget about my weekly posts since I am on holidays I’ll pop out during the week. I have plenty of time but don’t get used It will only be until January.

With thispost I want to respond to you, I am giving back. I won’t say anything elseabout the outfits because I have said what I though already. I am not goingthere. I will say that it is not unfair to compare superstar and non-superstar.In this case the non-superstar was at some point in her virtual life superstar.I think it is fair in this case, and in any other case it is too if I take thatin consideration when commenting the looks.

Anotherthing, yes I am a “real fashion blogger”. I didn’t say anything else. From whatI know to be a “real fashion blogger” you just need to have a fashion blog. Ididn’t say I was known or anything. I started 2 months ago and it’s going quitewell. At the moment I am having a giveaway I would love you to join, oh waityou do know the link. If I posted the link I would be doing publicity, you guysreally hate that, don’t you?

I hope Idon’t die anytime soon and I don’t wish that to anybody. You all posted lovelycomments but one really made me think.

Chillguys, ok? I'll be staying in the HOUSE

I'm in the house

2011-12-17T13:59:00.004-05:00

Stardoll is not on the top of my interest list anymore, but fashion is. I decided to do some “fashion advising” so I can try to comeback. Oh, and hello, my name is Bruno. I am a member of this online community (obviously) and I am a real life fashion blogger.

I’ll post weekly. I’ll present you with the best and the worst look of the week. I’ll start today. This is the warm up.

Best Dressed:

*on the picture above we have: Forevergorgeous*

The nickname says it all. She will forever be gorgeous. What I like the most about this look is how real it is. If this was on any street I would still love it. I’m digging the pink hair. I really love some color on the hair, God know how I love it. Doesn’t she look like a hip celebrity coming from one of the hottest clubs in Hollywood?

*on the picture we have: MissCeaaria*

This is a whole other style. It speaks to me; it’s telling me “I’m lost”. The shirt doesn’t fit so keep it under a coat. That being said why is there a belt shorter than the shirt? It’s Pointless. I don’t really like the floating bag, and I am into magic but not feeling it. When we look at this is not “that” bad, it’s messy. The bag, the belt and the hosiery I would take them, they don’t go with the geometric. I think she though the shoes were “cool” so she put them there, yeah.

Party time!

2011-12-16T16:05:00.001-05:00

It's been pretty much all doom and gloom on the blog lately, so seeing as it's Friday why don't we all let our hair down and PARTAY!?

lige07 and lollypop_queen are hosting a Grand Re-Opening party in celebration of the the re-opening of their blog; ICON Agency!

The dress code is classy/beachy and (as requested by lige07) you are entitled to wear orange and/or aqua. The party starts in just under 2 hours, so if you're coming you better start getting ready!
