So I have DeviantArt profile because I like favoriting some of the cool stuff people make on the site. I do this quite often but I don not upload any art myself. I make comments and shit every once in a while making recommendations or pointing something out, which in some cases has been really helpful to people. And some of my comments have been less than exemplary, although these are very few. And along comes this guy. So please, tell me. Did I handle this situation well? [quote]WHAT THE HELL. I saw your deviant id icon and i was like oh man this person must have some pretty cool weird drawings but i see you're not an artist. SO WHY THE F*%K ARE YOU GIVING PEOPLE ADVICE ABOUT ART WHEN YOU DON'T EVEN DRAW. MAN WHY DON'T YOU SHUT THE F*%k UP AND LEAVE PEOPLE ALONE or draw something so i can critique it. I see you like 3d renderings, cars, guns, games and what ever ... draw something or SHUT THE F*%K UP. this is the problem with critics, they think they know something but in reality they're just losers picking on other peoples hard work when they just sit on their lazy asses and do nothing with their lives other than tell other hard working people shit they don't even want to hear. Who gives you a right to say anything. ANYWAYs i wanted to see what kind of person you were and the only thing you do have up are pictures of cartoon girls in bikini's so what does that say about you? You're most likely some sex deprived goon looking for cartoon you can masturbate to. Sick F*$K. Then i saw your comments and you told Malcontent1692 - "But anyway, it is your gun so feel free to change it in the way you like." AND THAT'S WHAT HE DID WHEN HE DREW IT CAUSE ITS HIS INTERPRETATION OF THAT GUN not YOURS. MAYBE HIS CHARACTERS HAD SMALL FINGERS. DAMN YOU'RE AN IDIOT. What are you a gun expert? Playing first person shooters does not make you an expert, it makes you a twat. Have you ever done 3d renderings? No you're just a loser with a delusional mentality thinking somebody gives a shit about your opinion. What qualifies you to pick on peoples art? Did you go to art school? Do you have a career where you deal with art on a regular basis? Are you a paid art director? DO YOU HAVE ANY QUALIFICATIONS OTHER THAN BEING A SELF PRESUMING ARROGANT -blam!-. From you have favored in the past this shows you're most likely male . Teen. You play xbox and you are a twat. OMG. ARE YOU A BRONY TYPE PERSON THAT LIKES SEXUALIZED CARTOONS? ... IS THAT WHY YOU'RE FAVORITES ARE ANIMATED GIRLS? UGH YOU ANNOY ME MORE AND MORE. [/quote] [b]My reply:[/b] [quote]Sorry if I offended you. I give my opinion just like anyone else on this site. And just like so many others, I don't have to have content uploaded to say what I think about other people's art. You act as if there is a requirement regarding experience in art in order to use this site. As far as I know, there's isn't. I joined this site because I liked what people drew/created and wanted to stockpile them in my own favorites. I give my opinions on various works on this site often and when I do, I don't mean to offend anybody and most of the time, they don't. I admit, sometimes I can be a little perverse or offensive with my words, but I'm used to that kind of environment and often forget that this site does not tolerate what I'm used to as much as the places that I am used to. When I make these comments, only afterwards do I see how offensive my comments could have been and I then wish I could have worded them differently or changed them entirely. But I can't. This is not the forum I'm used to. Despite these things, I am not as bad as you portray me to be. I rarely regret my comments like this. I don't know why you went out of your way to go through all my comments and favorites and make assumptions about what kind of person I am. But that doesn't matter. It's your business. Think what you will of what I have favorited, but you really didn't need to go airing all your frustration and assumptions at me in such a hostile way.[/quote] I know this isn't a blog, but I still felt like posting this. So what do you think, flood?
