Criticisms & Praise Parades
*passes TL the leftover bag of Cool Ranch Doritos*
There. Now you are in fact, all that and a bag of chips. Who can argue, it even says cool in the name!
this wont end well.
One thing I have learned within the industry that I chose, is knowing when to let things go, and to shut up. I mean that with love.
Back when I played this game on a daily basis, running my VG, I had about 10-20 people, granted out of hundreds, on these boards, who hated my guts and wanted me to die...
Ya know what I did? Nothing. I let them burn themselves out. And ya know what satisfaction I got out of that? Nada. Because honestly, it didn't matter.
Feeding into a pointless flamewar is...well, pointless.
If someone is hating on anyone (and this goes both way, gentlemen), let's stop using the anonymity of the internet as a shield, suck it up, let it go. It's the interwebs. IT DOESN'T MATTER.
IF Suichiro (and Co.?) is indeed unfairly hating on you, there is nothing you can do to stop that. Rise above.
IF Juggy is indeed doing the things that Suichiro (and Co.?) are stating, there's really nothing you can do to stop HIM. Rise above.
I have a friend in comics who has had a death-threat-giving hater for the last 15 years of his career. Ya know what he does? Doesn't address the guy. Ever. Never responds to the emails. The hate mail. Nothing. And he's getting DEATH threats. :P
I've said this before. It's. A. Game. These. Are. Boards. This. All. Means. NOTHING.
ZIP.
ZERO.
NOTHING.

Your bud wouldn't have the initial R.L. would he? lol
Probably good advice.

Although, funny story, I was bet 50 bucks to walk up to said individual at Comic Con this year and feign fan-girl-fanaticism.
Couldn't do it. And for an easy 50. LOL.

Seriously, though, **** you guys!
If you ask me, I believe that good things are nice, and bad things...not so much.

eating right and excercise = good
beer and potato chips = bad
Now tell me, Mr. Lurkey, which one is nicer????
You fool! Do you come from some bizzaro land?? Bad things are MUCH nicer than good!

But I put it to you that beer and potato chips taste good, and are therefore nice.
QED.

This is a fascinating story and I have no idea what the ****.
I'll never forget the time I first posted a piece of my work on a forum, the first reply was constructive but I took it the wrong way, "Grrrrr, I spent hours on that!" I thought, and didn't draw at all for days feeling a bit miffed, after all I didn't ask for the criticism but I got it anyway. I came back to the piece and thought "my god, he's right!" it wasn't the guys fault for ticking me off, it was my own for letting his opinion get to me, but he was right.
Since then I ask for criticism on all my posts here too, "good and bad" are my exact words, everyone can take the praise but not everyone can take the hurt
Some of the "bad" criticism has given me new ideas and I've added to the piece or I've accepted the opinion and left it the way it is.
I appreciate the fact that people take a little moment of their lives to have a look at my work and give me a pat on the back or point out something that isn't quite right.
Peace
Kat, you're ruining my plans to have an Ultimate Showdown of Ultimate Destiny! >.<

Now Deebs, you know full well that if this discussion were to take place on Twitter, it would degenerate into talking about what people had for lunch and other food related discussions. And honestly, who wants to read stuff by someone who is just going on and on about chips or something like that?
TL
Today I tweeted about the fact that I made an ice cream float in my mouth.
This is the quality **** you get at @agentfoo!
Have I mentioned I want chips yet?
Because I do.
