Right. let's stop ganging up on Elk now, ok? If you don't like his work, just don't say anything. If you think you have a suggestion, I wouldn't bother - he'll have some half-baked response.

So basically, just look at his art from now on and don't bother commenting if you can't handle a half-baked comment.

So in other words, if we don't stop shunning Elk for being a 4 year old...he'll cry to you and you'll come to his rescrew...er rescue.

You can't be talking to me?

You should know by now that I can not be held responsible for my words.

Stephen....I love his work. But I just hate it when he acts like a god.

Or he could just not post it here.

I hate the way your double standards are so clearly evident when it comes to Elk.

Somebody else submits a crappy piece of work and says "took me 5 mins coz I was bored" and you flame them about using that as an excuse for it being crappy. Elk submits some crap and says it was "speed art" and you accept that as a valid reason for it being crappy.

Somebody else posts something and says they don't want comments or criticism and you say that by posting it they should automatically expect comments ans critcism because these are open forums. But when Elk does it it's okay, and you try to make us seem bad for wanting to help him improve.

And you delete my comments for calling Elk out, after he instigates it by calling me an idiot, but I'm not allowed to call him an idiot back because I can back it up and that might hurt his feelings.

Seems about right.

Before I continue reading and conversing this topic with you, I would like you to provide one such instance as you've detailed above.

This is getting ridiculous. I have read the graphics forum for a long time and it seems that so many of these threads turn in to ego battles. I don't even bother getting involved with this stuff because so much of it becomes a waste of time on the part of everyone.

When it comes right down to it, being able to pixel isn't an all-to-prestigious skill. It's a fun little hobby that holds little significant application other than that (unless your goal in life is to develope halfassed Korean RPGs). If someone wants to act as though he or she is royalty for having that skill then so be it. I knew guys that acted like they were God's gift to man because they often won local Remote-Controle Car races. Would you like to know what happened to them? After a while, everybody hated them and the men completely lost interest in the event. CONGRATULATIONS TO THEM.

I'm sure Elk gets the message by now. You're not going to verbally beat maturity into him. If he wants to continue his ways then let him. These constant dork fights aren't going to solve anything.

Well said.
