first he posts a BS art post and lies, the post is hosted on a warez site. then he insults and mocks artists. this morning he posted an image that (thank god) was a broken link, but the location of the image was a gay porn site and whoever copied the image into their web address and loaded it was treated to tons of gay porn pop ups. he's an asshole and has contributed no art or criticism, merely jokes at the expense of others and insults.

I don't know what to tell you Vesuvius.
There are a bunch of little assholes here polluting the boards with their bullshit.
If you want to ban Jan F kanady, you got to get rid of the rest of the trash, I.E. 666 [Flat], Bob the newt, the list goes on and on. Call me an "elitist", but I think there should first be an age limit of 17 or older. Secondly, if someone's not a seriuos artist (meaning trying hard to further their skill. I don't think everyone has to be a great artist, I just think they should at least be trying.) or an art enthusiast who is capable of giving a good critique.......They shouldn't be here.
Forgive me, but I think that sijun was and still could be "the cream of the crop" of art forums. And our artist and members should reflect that.

Just my 2 cents,
CT2001

I think there will always be bad apples in any forum, which you can't get rid of. I think the key is to piss them off as much as they try to piss you off. So long as you give very little effort, of course.

the thing is that if you're viewing the forums at work and tried to copy the URL to his supposed image, you'd end up barraged by gay porn... not good. and besides that he's affiliated with illegal activities (he hosted his pic on a warez site). and he has posted 0 art and has insulted members.

Who was it that said that the "bad" people should be banned? lol, joking.

Anyway, i think (just to comment on that) that an age limit would be idiotic. You could do tons of things, but that wouldn't be good. There might as well be a great 15 year old artist out there. Take me for example, i turned 17 a month ago, but before that i acted the same way as i do now, posted "art", wanted to learn, and so on.

I think that frost and some other good artists from before the board shut down the 1st time were pretty young, in teens, but even if they weren't it's an unenforceable idea and there are exceptions to the rule on both sides.

some people have no choice about posting
their artwork...

I don't have a scanner.
and drawing with a mouse sucks ass.

so until my job pays me better, i just talk
and post work when I'm at Blitz's house.

i'll have a scanner next month though.

I had to save for it.

It would be cool if the forum had a 'kick' type thingy.

e.g. if enough registered users vote to 'kick' a user who isn't conforming to the rules, they get automatically banned for 2 weeks.

We haven't banned anyone yet, and the board is still here, despite the problems.

If you don't like a guy, don't read his threads. If said guy posts gay porn, we have moderators to remove the link. If said fellow posts absolutely nothing but insults, then more power to him for exercising free speech in spite of the consequences. The point is, if you quit paying attention to someone, then they generally go away (stneil777, anyone?).

CT2001: I agree fullheartedly. We should also get rid of all the members with any drug references in their name. They're obviously just fourteen year-old dope-addict Tool-fans who over-hyphenate every sentence in a poor-attempt to seem somewhat-intelligent. They couldn't possibly help all of the world-renowned (that was proper usage of a hyphen, by the by) professional artists who are interspersed throughout this forum.

Ceenda: Can you imagine how fast Mullins or Frost would have been banned by all the trend-humping plebeians during the whole Lumental fartfest? Democracy simply doesn't work when dealing with fanboys.

Was that a stab at me?
What drug referance? You're a moron. Is that the best you can think of?
Go for it. I love shootin' down haters.
BTW~ Go check out my site I have pics of myself there. I own my own business, I own my own house, I own my own car. I have a fine ass woman. My life is bliss. How 'bout you? I'm far from 14. I'm 24 punk, you need to respect your elders man.
This is what I'm givin' the haters today, because I don't have any more time to elaborate.
FUCK OFF.

It wasn't really a stab at you, per se. It was more of a sarcastic recourse against your ingenius attempt to ban anyone under the age of 17. See, you imply that anyone younger than a high school junior is obviously a social retard, is contributive to the downfall of the forum, and can't properly show da' respect to da muthafuckaz that be older than they azz, and we should therefore ban them.

I, in turn, implied that anyone that would go as far to include drug references in their nickname were also guilty of the above charges, and we should therefore ban them, in order to save the forum from the mythic hordes of demonic nerds who have nothing better to do than spend all their time bothering professional artists, like you.

Usually, respect has to be earned through some merit or token of esteem, like using the letter "g" in the proper suffixes. One doesn't automatically sponge up respect as they get older, obviously.

So, yeah. That's all the hatin' I can think of right now.

You can't get rid of a user, they simply come back under a new alias which would then allow them to refute their stupidity all over again.

To put it simply; deal with it, mmkay? If you see someone causing shit, give them some shit to deal with. Piss'em off, show them who can be the asshole in return. All in good fun, of course. In stead of turning into some flame war, make some fun out of it! That's what this place is for, anyway.

Oh, and banning people for putting drug references in their name? Give me a fucking break, people. Have an open mind, and let someone express themselves the way they want, jesus. Im not all for it, but if that's what floats you're boat, then by all means.

*sigh* I hate these moronic discussion, makes me wonder if I look more like a moron than the lamers you want to ban when I participate in this junk.

Impaler~
I never suggested banning anyone. I simply suggested a few options. I'm not a mod here, so my opinion (like yours) really means nothing on the whole.
I know for a fact that there are a lot of decent artist around here that are below the age of 17. BUT, I simply can't think of another option.
It was my an opinion, nothing more nothing less.
If you don't like what I have to say, that's cool with me.
However, please refrain from trying to flame me. Because I'm not the type of person to just sit back and let someone run their mouth on me.
As far as my name is concerned, I've had that screen name for almost 5 years now. I like it and I'm sticking with it. It has absolutely nothing to due with my use or non use of Marijuana. What's in a name anyway? How many folks around here have wierd ass names? Look at your name, not very original in my opinion, but it's not my name so why should I care?
I'm going to assume that this conversation between you and I is now over.

Take it easy,
CT2001

Come one people, lets all get along. there is simply no way to keep these kind of people out. if we put an age limit on, all that does is have kids who don't meet the limit clicking 18+. I think instead we should focus on the more serious posts, scream into a pillow and bite off the head of a chicken (like i do ) the next time we see that dude or another Counterstrike doodle about sex/"i r 133tness" crap , and move on. For every person like those people there is a dozen serious people trying to get thier art across.

And unfortunately for every person mature enough to skip past those posts, there are a dozen or so hot-headed gumby butts that just have to try to get their 2 cents into starting a flame war.

We will never see the day that everyone will learn to keep their mouths shut and move on. Just won't happen. :/

Are you following me around trying to get a rise out of me Hamster?
I've had enough trouble (as you can see) for one day.
If you're just joking around, that's cool.
I guess I just can't distinguish between the two right now. =/
Cool?
