I never realized how much I could fucking hate twelve year olds...or at least those who act like they're twelve.

This forum is getting a little bit ridiculous. I thoroughly enjoyed the gossip about deserving paysite owners. It was funny and full of information. This is just downright annoying.

Helaene just posted an update on her website saying, "(EDIT: Someone expressed to me by email tonight that they were worried I was going to become a pay artist at TSR or someplace like that. I can assure you that is not true.
My work will always always always be free. <3 )"

Just thought I'd post an update.

I disagree. This is the THIRD time the Lizard has posted here. Has he been banned from ever coming to this site, because we don't like what he says? NO. When everyone was joking about Solander from Pimp My Sims, and he came to defend himself, did everyone start telling him to leave? NO. He was welcomed and talked to, and allowed to give his opinons, no matter what they might be. When avic came presenting what he thought about the whole paysite debate, did anyone tell him to leave? NO. One (new) member insulted him, and a whole slew of other immediately jumped to his defense. So I don't really see how anyone is being hypocritical here.

People always get angry when I say I don't like something, as well. Even though I try to have as much tact as possible. For example, someone on the Sims website was telling people that they had the BEST idea. They were going to write a story about a gang (and their rotweiler, can't forget that) who kidnaps and tortures two girls, but one guys won't do it because he had a crush on one of them since SECOND grade. I think the idea is stupid, tasteless, and entirely too realistic. But instead of shooting down their idea, I tried to tell them to keep it tasteful - no rape or gore. They told me, If I don't have anything nice to say, don't say it at all. I think I threw up in my mouth a little bit.

I think people in general (not everyone!) are just a bunch of idiots who can't take any sort of criticism.

Ah, sorry for the misunderstandment. I completely agree then!

Ensign, I agree to a point. I write a lot, as well. And I write for the enjoyment. But I also want people to read what I write and give me responses. I don't necessarily want the responses to be drooling praise. But I want to improve as a writer, and I believe that other people's opinions, especially when they give constructive criticism, help people to improve.

So I thank people who create wonderful content. And I also understand why people would want to be credited for their work, since they did put time and effort into it. But at the same time, I don't think it's so terrible if some people forget to give credit. Sometimes everyone just needs to calm down, take a deep breath, and share the peace and love (joking...just a little bit ).

That doesn't mean that you can "convincingly act over the age of 12." You're doing a poor job of acting anything relatively close to your age.

Or he/she/it's just an idiot.
Or he/she/it's just an idiot and was trying to disguise his typing so we wouldn't realize that he's really just Lizard.

(Stepping out of my lurkerdom for a minute)

I am sitting here, trying quite hard not to laugh. That's possibly one of the funniest posts I ever read. Man, people sure are audacious... charging 100 dollars for meshes.
