I used the word trolling in general and did not directly call anyone a troll. It is a mod slang for someone that goes repeatedly from place to place on this site and leaves negative comments. I was speaking in generalities of various kinds of practices that violate Renderosity's TOS. What I found in your critique and comments was negativity, and sarcasm, and nothing to validate their use other than the simple fact you didn't like the other pictures in the challenge. I'm sorry someone in the past, liked a simpler pic than your more developed one, it has happened to me, it has happened in one way or another to everyone here. It sucks. Did you ever think that the badly rendered drawing that got high praise might have just been some members encouragement to someone struggling? That maybe the "enlightened, lenient" ones were trying to help someone from being discouraged? Just a thought. Is what really subjective? "It's the range of our imagination", what is "It"? Sorry, draculaz, but someone translate... Please, and I mean this to EVERYONE...have an opinion. Feel free to voice it. But, I CANNOT and will not see a problem with asking everyone to voice said opinions with an ounce of thought for others, it's that plain and simple. Not doing so actually takes more time and thought than it does to just say nothing... As a member you and all others have lots of rights, but this site was created with certain basic rules. One of which states that "destructive, abusive, defamatory communications in any form" will not be tolerated. Those rules were set up long before you all signed up, it shouldn't be a surprise. If it is...please go and read renderosity's TOS. http://www.renderosity.com/index.ez?viewLink=193 Draculaz, I appreciate your art, your free 3d models, your participation in this forum and its Challenge. As I do everyone elses. I love hanging out here like everyone else. But, if and when I have to use the business end of my Mod job, well that's what I gotta do. I felt that your vote comment was completely unnecessary and more importantly an attack on my members in the Challenge which I run. Even if the comment had been from someone else and directed towards you draculaz, I would have taken the same action and would be writing this same text in your defense. Please...try to express future displeasure with other peoples work with an amount of compassion. And, It would be great if you could place three votes in the challenge. Hey, all I can do is ask, lol.
