I think, for what it's worth, we are losing sight of the problem. There are too many people here that are targets! If your work gets voted into the hot 20, then all of a sudden you get harassing IM's telling you how undeserving you were to receive that honor! This has continued and been allowed to go on for a long time now! If you never take a stand for what is right, then what's the use for the freedom of speech, which we all currently have? I for one agree that the person we are speaking of, has a definite problem! If he is allowed to continue to be a part of this community, then there should be rules and regulations for HIS actions if this kind of behavior continues! No one told him to react the way he did, he did this ALL ON HIS OWN! Another thing, I don't think the VICTIMS are acting like 3 year old kids, I think they are tired of this sort of thing being allowed to continue! They have every right to voice their feelings about any subject, whether it be critisizm that was constructive and helpful, or being told that their work wasn't good enough to be in the top 20! Has anyone asked Thelma, classyladytwo, or the others, just exactly what he said to them? I'm sure they have told a few people, maybe if they saved those IM"s they should post them, so we all can see HIS behavior! Sorry if someone has a problem with this post, but I'm tired of my friends being tortured! Yes I know someone said he has mental issues, but who doesn't I think at one point and time we all have problems, but again that doesn't give us the right to trash anybody else's work or their feelings!
