Deviant Art is not for me

Monday, January 5, 2004 by kona0197 | Discussion: WinCustomize Talk

I went over there yesterday since our site was down. I told a few people that WC was down and got flamed so bad i think I do not want anything to do with that site anymore.

Ah, so you had taste of the outside world. See how sheltered you are here. A lesson perhaps...

Tip: take a look at their ages - just a bunch of nappy-crappers. They don't represent the vast majority of people at DA.
All they do is troll the forums for someone to pounce on. Your turn today

Kona : It is probably no good idea to post something like 'You have never heard of Wincustomize.com? The site that is 10 times better than DA IMHO?' at DA forums. You cannot compare both sites too close as they are made for different people. I too was at some point angry about DA last year, bur there are also many fine people that I didn't want to lose contact with. That is one reason I got back there. 'Don't let Your opinion be formed by a few idiots only!' was something I have learned out of this. The owners/most mods of DA are a fine bunch of people nevertheless. There are far worse sites on the net with bunches of arrogant people and 'leaders' starting with a 'd' (not 'deskmod'...)

You know, 99% of people who visit a site will go there, browse the cool shiznitz, and never think about hitting the forums and starting a pointless thread. I'm a senior member at DA, and have been a member since day *. I haven't taken as much part as I should, but I think it is a great site.

I wrote an item at JoeUser that pretty much sums up how my feelings toward DevArt have changed. http://bakerstreet.joeuser.com/index.asp?AID=2428 Granted, I go there for the art, though. If I was gonna hang out and talk to all the other bored people with no interest in the art, I'd probably not enjoy it much. DA is great, WC is great, they are two different kinds of sites, apples and oranges.

Regardless Kona, you've been coddled here. I wouldn't expect to be treated so elsewhere. I have spent a lot of time on DevArt's forums, too, and requires skin about ten times thicker than WC.


...so why not say "A pointless thread on Devart's forum is not for me"?

Next time you are bored, go over there and start a thread with a title like:

"FURRIES SUCK, ANTHROS SUCK, ANIME R0XX0RZZ!! INUYASHA AIN'T NO FURRY!!"

I think you'll find your original thread wasn't close to a flame.

He seems to have a penchant for being a forum bully. Someone complained on his webpage in Devious Comments.

Having a few morons (I don't usually use that word) on DA's forum no more reflects on their site than do the few morons, we get here at WC, reflect on us.
After all, it's a moronic world.

snicker, snicker, snicker, snicker.

And on topic, deviantart isn't about the forums, in the same way that here isn't. Hoewever the forums here are more mature, which I thank Jafo and the other admins for. I've been to other places where the admins flame it on.
