Description
PLEASE TAKE A MOMENT TO READ THESE WORDS BEFORE LET A COMMENT, IT'S MORE IMPORTANT 'CAUSE IT'S FOR PROG AND FOR YOU
For those who don't know me,
I 'm french and I hope my English is not so bad.
*********
I have many ideas in my head to post future images. One of this was to put many people, hand in hand like a family... like Renderosity Family. But since yesterday (or today), I think it will be not for immediatly...
When I saw the last post of Bill (primaltruck), I don't understand why he said that Prog leave us in cause of jealous person. First, I thought to an association like PMRC in 80' with Rock n' Roll band... After many mails, I know the reason why. Only because some persons are jealous that Dudley is always in Hot 20 and they think that he was Voting for himself and only Makes comments to get comments.
To these persons I would like to say this to them:
I AM SURE, YES, SURE THAT IT'S NOT TRUE... but if it was true,... Hot 20 is so important???????
G.I. die for nothing in Irak, in Africa, many, many children die everyday, plane crash, Tzunami, Terrorism...
The world is ready to explode and you created trouble for
Hot 20!!!!! You are just F^^^ing Crazy persons!!!!! So stupid!!!!
I discover Hot 20, only 3 weeks ago, I think it's good for me 'cause I love Art, all style of Art and it's excellent to discover wonderful talents, but that's all.
Dudley pass lot of time to encourage many others Artist. My parents rise up well, and it is the courtesy when I have a comment to see who give it and if I saw a beautiful image, I post a comment too.
When I discover Prog, I spend 2 hours looking his gallery. Did you see his work? (I am not really fan of his Friday's images, just beautiful ladies -lol-) but these others works., did you see all details, his colors so rich, his imagination.... S^^T!!!! Dudley is a very talented Artist, that's a fact!!!! If you wanna be also famous like him in our community, work, work, work and stop says bulls^^ts.
To Prog, I would like to say this to him:
Maybe you or you all who read this, you ask them, Eric is often the first who post a comment, well listen: I am single man without responsiblilty with wife or children. I am CG Professional Design, I work at home, in front of my monitor 15 hours per day (I am little Insomniac too). My Macintosh ring when one of my favorite artist post a new image and if I'm working, I stop my work and post a comment If I like the image.
Prog, if someone told me "you are always the fist, it's just to have more comments or......" I would answer him :F^^k you & get out of my page. Nobody, I said Nobody (except Rendo) will make me leave from here especially not of the people who do not know me.
if you leaves us, you give reason to these jealous persons. Don't be stupid Dudley and past over this stupid kids games.
Sorry for this little book, and if like me you want Dudley come back with his real Arts family, you can say:
Yes, I want
Eric
These words is for Dudley, and my image for all the jealous persons.

Eric= this is a perfect image for the Shitheads who only want to hurt.And your words are right on! Dudley is loved and respected in this community for what he gives - not what he takes. This is a man who truly adores art and artists. When we share our art, and our feelings, we are all vulnerable to being attacked and hurt - I truly hope he sees and understands how much he is loved by this community. Thanks for sharing your feelings and creating this image which helps put this 'crap' into perspective. :o) Carol

When my engilch is so bad, I will not try to explain what I feel, but I will say to you Eric... YOu just have so right...Prog is a great artist and I really hope he stays.... Hugs from WJ

I was wondering why prog didn't have a Friday image. (Also not my favorites. My favorites are his Tuesday images for all the reasons you mentioned above.) I vote for Prog just about every time because he is one of the top 5 (not top 20) artists here. I would say he is number one, but that may cause me to get flamed also and I don't like people who have courage to say things because it is over the internet. I'm one of those "if you don't like me tell me to my face" kind of people. I don't hang out in chat rooms and I don't really care if I get images in the Hot 20. I am a graphic designer by trade and just do this for a hobby. Prog (Dudley, has been very supportive of my meager offerings and I salute the encouragement he offers with each of his comments. If he is gone I shall miss him. I pray he is not. For whoever it was that flamed him I say find a new life. The one you have now is only a sham if you think you have power because of the keyboard you have in your lap. Prog, please stay and tell who(m?) ever it was that made you question your participation on this site to bite you. I'm sure whoever said those things is hope giggling to himself at the uproar he thinks he has caused. I say ban Whoever said this. Send this person's childish ranting to a let tight-knit community where they like to deal with spoiled children.

Wow...I've never really gotten very deeply into the community side of things here. I have a lot of irons in the fire...work, college, a family, writing, and dabbling in Poser when the mood strikes me. From the comments I've seen, I've always thought that everyone in Renderosity was very supportive, like an Art Community should be...like true artists always are of each other. If the love of creation is in your heart, if you are a true artist, then jealousy can never live there. Those who would drive someone as talented as Prog from this community because of petty jealousy are nothing but wannabes and so long as they embrace that type of mentality that is all they will ever be. Art is an expression of self. You can't be that ugly on the inside and not have it manifest in your work. Dudley, please reconsider. Don't allow petty people to drive you from someplace that you love and where are you loved in return. There are so many here that you have inspired, myself included. Please don't let them win. I would be very sad if I never got to see another image of yours. :( Eric, you are wonderful. Your spirit is a shining light in this community and in this dark and scary world we live in. ::hugs::

THE JEALOUSY IS AN ENORMOUS EVIL... DUDLEY Is A GREATEST ARTIST To 360And a MAGNIFICENT PERSON...I HOPE HE STAYS...BRAVO ERIC EXCELLENT WORK
ZeroEffect
Well eric, I feel that you said it all for us. There are a few people on this site that I would love to tell to go to hell and never return. I also have a strong desire to tell the people watching over this site to kick there asses off. Who is anyone to say one artist's work should not be offered to the community. They are all jealous of him. It's just too bad. The only reason for my being here is because of dudley. He has been there from the start for me, and has given me some help along the way. Dud's if your out there please don't stay away. There are far too many on this site that value you. As for the hot 20, when the hell did this stop being about art? The hot 20 should just be taken and flushed. Eric thank you for this image, you are a true hero....

WHOA Eric. Well Said!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Excuse-moi Eric, tu peux mettre le commentaire au frances, mes ingles est tres mauvais et je ne le comprenne pas.
SpiritofGabriel
Of cource we want Dudley back! He always takes time for everyone and has encouraging words. Yes, he gets a ton of comments - doesn't he work for it? Isn't he there for everyone? It's he always there for everyone's questions? He's the reason I'm here! He's the reason I strive to be as good as him! He taught me how to paint hair! He's a great guy! Any foul mouthed creap can go take a leap!! I have to agree with legolas240000 about the Hot 20. When did it stop being about the artwork? Maybe we should flush the Hot 20!
twingo
Very true words Eric, you expressed the feelings a lot of us feel. We all are here to show our work and as we try to make our work better we will get more viewings. Prog is one of the best around and if you want to get better than him you have to create something special. They can better use the time they have to improve there art instead of producing filth.
Shaylea
I don't know Prog personally, although he has left many nice comments at my gallery! His artwork is awesome. What a shame for someone to be jealous of his art! Isn't that what the little comment box are for??? I do hope that he will come back and just ignore this person. Whoever they are...just isn't worth leaving for! Ditto to everything said here Eric! Yep-I say flush it!

Great render,Poser6? Who modeled the toilet? VOTE!
SaintFox
I'm afraid that my words won't help Prog to feel less dissapointed about envious people but I'm always getting angry when people compromise one's reputation: From my first day here in Renderosity I observed Prog's gallery closely, leaving a comment here and there and voting on lots of his images - and I was always aware that an artist with job, family (private life, other interests...) doing so much images with so much effort isn't able to comment on everything that is posted round here. And guess what? He commented on one of my images!!! And I kept on commenting here and there and voting some times. Nothing changed. It's silly to think that people vote just because someone is kind enough to pay attention on ones images. Yes, going to the Hot Twenties is a question of fame or popularity, it's also a case of what kind of images you do. But who cares??? Eric, you're right: The Hot Twenties are for fun, it's kind of a game or showcase. I'm always happy when I find something in there that I really like. And if I find something I dislike? I couldn't care less about anything!!!
sLexie
I
m not so good in english so i can
t express my feelings about it in english ... But Eric i`m totaly agree with you !! Prog is a fantastic artist and i hope he will stay in here!! hugs LisaDRAKELOT
Well Eric. No comments on your work, (but it made me laugh). Yes there more important things in life than the hot 20 crap!!! I really don't see a guy that spends hours helping and writing and just beeing there for everybody, (including me), waisting his time on anything else than his work and art !!! Take a brake ? NO WAY !!! YOUR THE ONE AN ONLY PROG !!! Who's going to teach us how to paint hair like that, make girls and prop/gs look like that. Well Dudley, Eric is right ... always be yourself !!! What is sunday without NFL and what is friday without Readheads !!!

I am incredibly saddened and burdened by this entire tragic episode, and I have so much to say that I don't feel like saying anything. The sad thing is, most of this stems down to the Hot20 which should have been revised or deleted a long time ago. It inspires anger, it alienates a lot of people, and it causes great people to leave this site due to a lot of nonsense in the forums. I was going to post tonight after working so hard for two weeks on an image, but I think I'm going on posting strike until Dudley comes back. There is just no joy or happiness in knowing that the system hurt one of the nicest, most talented, and helpful souls on the site. There will always be human emotions that guide people's actions, and these actions are often not positive or pleasant. I honestly don't blame Dudley for leaving as he has invested so much time making art, commenting, answering IM's, creating glorious products, helping the community...you name it. Even the actions of just one person can spoil things for everyone, and this is just a great example of what jealousy can create. We miss you already, Dudley. It's not the same without you and we want you back!

Good idea with this toilet Eric Sorry my english, but i try ... :-)) Some people have NO other life than look and talk about what other do.

eric this is the second time i've tried posting here the first didn't upload so i'll keep it short!!! i think you are a great friend to dudley for saying these things!!!i don't know the story behind what has happened!!! but i am disgusted with some people who seem to get satisfaction from causing upset!!! i have noticed these peoples comments on other peoples work where they just critisize but offer no advice!!! if you click on these peoples names you find they have no postings at all!!! so i think some people only come here to cause upset!!! i hope you are able to contact your friend dudley and assure him he has many friends here that would dissagree with the comments made against him, and would love to see him posting his art again!!! good luck eric you are a friend to many people,of which i am only one!!!but a grateful one!! if you want names on a petition to the moderators let me know and i will sign!!! perhaps they will be able to block such immature comments being made!!! well done for supporting one of your friends here!!eric you are a good man!!!
ericfarris
Vince, I don't know really Dudley, But I know that is a real ARTIST and a wonderful person to this community...
bbratche

squeeka
Oh wow... Eric, this is so wonderful and Dudley, you need to listen to him :) Don't give in and leave us cause that would make us all very sad.. I really missed the FNRH this week and it just won't be the same here without you. Eric, what you said, you said perfectly and I applaud you for it!! You are always commenting on peoples work and are a wonderful person! Excellent image and sentiments hon!! hugglz :)
micsteel
Eric, your English may not be perfect (better than my French!), but your passion is as clear as a bell! Dudley, if there are a dozen people who irritate you, there are two thousand who appreciate you! Eric, votre anglais peut ne pas re parfait (meilleur que mon Franis !), mais votre passion est aussi clair comme cloche ! Dudley, s'il y a des douzaine peuples qui vous irritent, lsont deux mille qui vous apprient !
jif3d
Man, there are some very narrow-minded people around!!! PROG...ROCK'S!!! anybody's got problem with that??? see me!!! JEFF
SMILEYDEE
This is one of the sweetest things I've seen here in RO. .. RO has very good community artists support .. This is an artist community not a place where kids come in out of the playground and sling petty mud against each other ........Bravo well said and delivered eric! YES I WANT!

Very nice of you Eric and i hope Prog wil be coming back because he is a great artist and no one has the right to talk in that way over someone. I cut say lots of things but my english is not that good and other people say the same this already. I always loved Progs art and i missed it already, hugs Sahejaa
Forevernyt
I agree with all of the above. Prog will come home, don't worry. And when he does, he'll be stronger than ever.
papachile
I want Prog! Please come back! your a vital part of our lives and we love your art! I agree with the above, childish games are stupid!
