While we're at it, Mr. Kammerer, we'd like to have a word with you about the location of Mr. Hoffa, those missing tapes, and what happened to the alien ship we tracked to your back yard. ".Poppi, go hang out with the PFO...I am sure you will love it there....They love people that don't ask questions..." Snort snicker snrf .... ah, right. Poppi never questions things, right, Poppi? ;]

One small bit of advice- to be free is a fine thing, but to be expensive is better. ;]

Too young for all that grey hair, huh? ;] Best of luck, all highly deserved success and joy to the both of you. 80 8) 8) 8) 8)

I think I have some 4 meg RAM chips around here, somewhere..... (If I tried to run on them now, I'd need 250 slots!)

"I also know alot of plumbers, too. My best friend is a plumber for that matter." Plumbers are like cats- they can't understand that not everyone wants to see their butts.

I didn't think RonKnight lived in Norway. Huh. Anyway, that's not the point. I don't get it. So someone posts art you don't like, an opinion you don't agree with, whatever- so what? It's a big world, that happens. Drive on.

Cool, I like that. You're a moron, JM, artistically commenting.

Of course, now we'll get another round of "look what kind of trouble that Legume is causing", when it isn't you at all. It's the people who think they have to scream themselves blue because they've been "offended", and immediately go on a holy crusade.

Watching what? Someone has been nominated as AOM, and the sole reason many object is that they believe that his subject matter is maliciously provocative, and that his supporters do so solely to cause harm. As opinions go, that is no worse than many. However, the administration is capable of handling violations to the TOS. This more closely resembles an attempted lynching. Offense by art is as old as art. There are certain symbols and ideas which some hold "sacred" that they believe are being abused. However, does anyone have the right to deny anyone expression because they don't like it? I have always thought that when people are so vastly angered by satirical representation, that it shows ther own lack of conviction. I too have certain beliefs. If I see a work mocking them, I consider the source and move on. Someone else's interpretation can only be harmful to me if I let it. Why don't you just come out and say Legume? I'm sure he won't care, he seems to be pretty confident in his outlook.

Forgive me, I mised the part of your post saying "by the way, I was't talking to you..." It is a public forum. It was an inderect slam, I'll give you that. So I assume that means it applies equally to all of the AOM candidates. I didn't realise there were so many bad artists here...

Direct personal attacks are a violation of the terms of service, you know. You have the right to dislike anything you wish. You have the right to not consider it art. You have the right to not look at it. You have the right to leave the site. You do not have the right to dictate what is and is not acceptable conduct or content of the site. Insulting menbers and administrators at random is not considered an effective means of gaining sympathy for one's point of view.

He's sharing files that he already has, they are just of her creation. He is pretending to be her while doing so, to give the impression that she is participating in warez. He is also using her identity for defamatory purposes.
